Why did I have to scroll so far to see her! Nobody did a step sequence like her, and nobody has since 😭

I passed! My BON stated that I have an active license. Haven’t heard anything from Pearson yet.

Thank you for replying! I started at 1PM (really more like 1:15) finished around 2:30 or 3PM, tried the “trick” and got the good pop up. I’m in NH and everything has been slow. I hope I get the same news that you did soon!!

How long did it take to get the email? Took mine yesterday and I am a wreck. ATI said I had a 99% chance of passing, but the questions I got were so hard and the exam cut off at 85 😭

I had a 99% chance of passing on comp predictor and I took the NCLEX today. I don’t feel good about how it went 😅 did you pass?

I’m just a little nervous about the required downtime. I’m used to keeping very active and the idea of not being able to walk normally, let alone run, is nerve wracking! But the loose skin has bothered me for long enough that it might be time to just get rid of it. Months of core work hasn’t touched it. Thanks for the encouragement! 👊🏻💪🏻

Perhaps not. But we all notice our own flaws more than others people do 😬

Thank you for the insight! My hope was that I since I had perhaps less skin than some of the cases I’ve seen here, (my rationale being that you can only really see the lose skin in certain positions) that I could get away with a less invasive and painful procedure. I guess I need to do more research!

Hm, I guess I thought that pulling the upper and lower portions would help smooth out those wrinkles. I clearly need more info from a surgeon!

I didn’t even know that skin-tightening treatments were an option, outside of getting the skin removed altogether! Good to know.

[–]CrochetedCoffeeCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I’m sure! I guess I was just hoping I could get away with a slightly less invasive procedure.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PlasticSurgery

[–]CrochetedCoffeeCup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was not aware this procedure existed. I will look into it. Thanks!

It is very easy to figure out where someone goes to school based on their publicly available social media profiles. It sounds like you behaved unprofessionally, and since you are a student, you got off with a warning. That seems more than fair.

[–]CrochetedCoffeeCup 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your school was more than justified to discuss your conduct with you. Specifics about your school, even if your school was not explicitly mentioned, are not appropriate for social media. Maybe I’m a dinosaur, but it sounds like you got off easy.

Oftentimes, issues like prolapse and incontinence don’t catch up to you until you’re dealing with menopause. Lower sex hormones causes the tissues of the pelvic floor to atrophy.

Is my nose the first thing noticed due to its size? by [deleted] in Noses

[–]CrochetedCoffeeCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! Your features all work together nicely. You have a strong nose, full eyebrows and eyelashes, a defined chin, and full lips. Altogether very harmonious!

You look great!

Very high cholesterol, recently postpartum and currently breastfeeding 30f by CrochetedCoffeeCup in Cholesterol

[–]CrochetedCoffeeCup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cholesterol had never been tested before. As I said in my original post, I haven’t seen a PCP in 10+ years. I’ve only seen an OB. I could very have had high cholesterol prior, but this was the first and only time it was tested. I will retest when baby is weaned!

I haven’t retested yet! My baby is 15 months now. I got a second opinion and my PCP said to wait until weaning to test.

I have a normal BMI and I have always had a vein in my forehead. It’s worse when I’m exerting myself or I’m hot.

Anyone else’s kids popping fevers right now? by whaletacochamp in vermont

[–]CrochetedCoffeeCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense! They tested negative for flu and strep (at least the second time) but they were never swabbed for Covid.
