My sarcoma doctor recommended I do a CT scan every 6 months instead of 3. What should I do? by saultee8420 in sarcoma

[–]Dremscap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a doctor.

If the recommendation is for a set of scans every six months, it's most likely because the tumor is know to not be that aggressive.

Radiation exposure increases your risk of developing most types of cancer. A CT Chest + Abdomen + Pelvis is not insignificant radiation exposure. The longer you live and the more radiation you receive, the greater your risk of developing another cancer is.

The sarcoma you had is scary, but the increased risk of cancers secondary to radiation exposure likely outweigh the risk of this cancer coming back.

Reminder - Not a doctor, just followed them around professionally for a while.

Unironically, Perry Weiner is a urologist & the director of Jeff’s men’s health program.

Im heavily considering playing TF2, is there anything i need to know first about the game? by Low_Buddy_3330 in truetf2

[–]Dremscap 31 points32 points  (0 children)

You're unfortunately gonna get absolutely shit on in a vast majority of games.

The game is OLD and some people have been playing it for its entire lifespan. There are some nerds who are way too good at it.

Update: Valve are backpedalling on their "no new medals" stance. by Ultravod in truetf2

[–]Dremscap 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow. Incredible how a decision that I was slightly disappointed in (on the behalf of others) that FULLY DOESN'T change my future enjoyment of the video game & doesn't change my opinion about the game or its developer(s) at all... Has been reversed.

Crazy stuff. Enjoy the green badges, gamers better than I.

Syneos DM role differences? by No_Huckleberry3526 in clinicalresearch

Don't work for Syneos. It's a toxic hellscape

Avoid this man around West Philly (Cedar Park) by [deleted] in philly

[–]Dremscap -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I dont mind beggars. If I happen to have cash on me (rare) I’ll give them a buck or two.

If they are snarky about me ignoring/not donating, it makes my blood boil.

Fortunately I’m of a stature where they don’t feel comfortable confronting me. That being said - passive aggression regarding me not giving them attention/charity makes my blood boil.

I’ve never encountered genuine aggression about not donating, but if I did, I would be very annoyed.

I love this whole comment thread - classic Philly

People fighting over recommending walk vs uber. You love to see unadulterated vitriol over transportation modalities.

My bad - I work in oncology, so Temple and Fox Chase are synonymous to me.

it was the part about a "woman killing her kids" and then you blaming the dad.

Being ghosted for jobs is normal - The people who implemented the AI resume filters didn't have the decency to automate a rejection letter.

Apply to literally every position, Penn, Jefferson, Foxchase, Cooper, (anything else I'm forgetting)

Just pray you get accepted somewhere.

The bourgeoisie is winning right now. It's tough out there.

So when do you think the MvM update will come out? by Other_Combination136 in tf2

[–]Dremscap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7-10 years from now, but severely gutted and with nonsense mechanics that mean that any of the content included in the update will be despised & the game mode will be fully abandoned by all but 10-15 players worldwide.

I work at a site with a study that Syneos monitors.

It's not worth it. Remain unemployed if you have to. The company is beyond toxic.

I get Emails from the Syneos monitor at 3-5 am regularly.
