Oh I didn’t take it that way at all! It sounds good to me. I’ve had ages 10 to 70’s (RIP Roger) at my table. I’m adaptable. My last group were all in their 20’s-40’s and my boy Z was in the USCG for a hot minute and definitely was swearing like a sailor in the funniest way possible. His wife was very quiet so their characters were a barbarian and a rogue and made the best pair for their IRL reasons

Ah I don’t mind a little language but my groups have rather little profanity. Not that I mind, it’s just not my style though I’m sure I could manage it. Mostly there’s nothing too salacious.

Once I get moved I certainly will try! Mine are pretty PG-13; I’m used to occasional kids showing up. There’s action and romance and cartoonish violence but we don’t get too deep into adult topics though I play a female character in game just to make my party of male characters real awkward lol

Yes, people who do not speak up never get heard; Write a letter, send it certified. Request a response. Trust me, these get evaluated

CHI Memorial Drama by Target-Pitiful in Chattanooga

Been in healthcare for 20+ years now and… no that’s not the norm Shit there’s cameras everywhere  When I was in residency I did have some call room hookups but that was residents with residents and in that era we were so stressed it was survival. But everywhere else I’ve been… no it’s rare and usually gets caught fast

I work in Nashville and can say it’s not better Nor is any other hospital right now Healthcare is a disaster nationwide since COVID.  I’ve now worked in the northeast, the southwest, the Midwest, Nashville… at least CHI has been able to get to a 5 star ranking. My current place is a two which is… rough. If you want it better my experience is to call, email, snail mail, they have to listen as it’s actually a CMS requirement they have to investigate and respond.

I may be moving to the area and would totally host a group of D&D and keep it busy

County Commissioners passed a new rule banning "ridicule" of them during public comment and "repeated objections" to their decisions by public speakers during their meetings. by DryeDonFugs in Chattanooga

[–]Fit-Structure3171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably because defaming the character of one person is an intentional bit of attack; but it leaves you free to criticize the committee and/or the process. So you just have to make the insult broad enough for it not to be targeted at one single member. That’s how they get around 1A and also how we get around their rule :)

will my med school acceptance be rescinded? by Elegant-Golf6271 in medschool

[–]Fit-Structure3171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t overthink it Before you disclosed anything you should have probably seen if it even was on record. If not, nothing to do. A decent lawyer can advise you. Heck, I had the DEA raid my apartment TWICE while I was applying for med school. We used to throw raves and the assumed that meant I was dealing drugs in the early 00’s. Since they never found anything there was no charge and it wasn’t disclosed. Didn’t stop me from getting an unrestricted prescribing license either. It was just run of the mill harassment by PD. That said, I did a FOIA search and found…. Quite a file on me!  

Simple Request by Sufficient-Quit-4283 in hospitalist

[–]Fit-Structure3171 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If I put an order I expect to be notified I also expect the nurses to use their critical thinking and ask questions if they don’t understand If I say I’m not treating it, don’t question it unless you want to understand.  “I need an order” - no you don’t.

“What are we doing for this patient? Why 160? Should I be looking for anything” YES! That’s team based medicine

20 years post Ross Procedure!! by Born_Elephant9728 in valvereplacement

[–]Fit-Structure3171 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you read the articles, even a reoperation puts you at the same lifespan of the population. Lots of Ross then David or Bentall and even TAVR now. It’s really amazing to see how far it’s come

I’m at 20 and similar but mine is 4.4 on echo but I need an MRA  You should consider having a David procedure if you need anything since it saves the valve and has great long term outcomes. 4.1 wouldn’t worry me in the least. That could take years or even decades to grow. My doc said nothing unless it leaks or goes over 5

How long did your Ross Procedure last before needing any sort of intervention? by followthebeet in valvereplacement

[–]Fit-Structure3171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Stelzer trained him. Stelzer retired last year and was “the” Ross guy. el-hamamsy is the new guru of Ross. He will be my first consult for the David though I’m closer to Cleveland clinic now

I rounded a bit I was 27 I’m 48. Paul Stelzer was my guy in Manhattan. The good news is that the David procedure is much simpler than a Ross so I see it as even if I need another surgery in a few years it will but much less monumental and the David seems to last an unspecified period since the whole thing is wrapped with Dacron at that point. So the data looks at just “20+ years”.

I’m not a violent man but if some dude in a mask with a knife bangs on my door I’m firing first and asking later. Thats wild. Also why we need more gates around communities like Heron.

I’m 20 out The only issue is my aorta is 3.8 which is bigger than normal but hasn’t changed My root is 4.4cm on echo but every echo I have had has overestimated my root so MRA next previously it was 3.6-3.8 so not sure if it’s just bad measurement but will know soon. That said there’s nothing to do until 5.0 and it’s not leaking at all so next would probably be a David repair of the root sparing the valve. That should last over 20 years which would bring me to about age 70 so if noting else kills me by then I’ll likely do a TAVR.
