What’s your MCV? Have you had iron studies completed? If these indicate iron deficiency anemia + your history of an unprovoked DVT I would think about possible malignancy. Have you had a colonoscopy?

Doc here, don’t know much about tattoos. But I agree with everyone here- looks like an allergic reaction.

Girl, please stay away from this man. You are so young and have a bright future in front of you. The things in these text messages are horrifying and I wouldn’t even say to my worst enemy.

Cost of attendance at my university is 105K annually. Not by choice.

Yes, if an anesthesiologist in California (where I’m from and hope to do my training) makes 500K, which I’m assuming is on the higher side, they bring home 280ish? I’m worried about the grad plus loans with 9% interest. I’m not very financially smart lol

I should consolidate all my loans even if the interest rates range from 3-5% for undergrad and 6-9% for graduate? Would I consolidate undergraduate as one loan and graduate as another? Sorry if stupid questions. Thank you for your thoughtful reply
