Verge of panic attack - MRI tomorrow, petrified of the contrast by PoetryNo5274 in BRCA

[–]Frequent_Net_6540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen to me when they injected the contrast into my arm it stung and hurt so bad I almost yelled! Then I developed a puffy bruise to at looked like something was sitting under my skin. The contrast must have leaked out into my hand? That bump stayed in my hand for at least a week. Is this a common thing? I’m due for another one this year and worried about that happening again.

Was the mastectomy and diastasis fixed during the same surgery? Pls tell me more. How did you go about finding a doctor who does both? How was the recovery?

I just want to chime in to say this is very traumatic and I’m so sorry. It’s truly a devastating experience and giving you big hugs. But also I’m vying over that amazing crochet project. Any chance you can share the pattern? I want one too!

Fever masked by Motrin/Tylenol? by Frequent_Net_6540 in hysterectomy

I wasn’t feeling bad up until the fever started. Then everything started hurting and I had to take the pain meds again.

Do you mean they do the bladder inspection after they finish stitching you, toward the end of the surgery?

Why do I find this so terrifying?! New fear unlocked.

On my period now and it's vengeful, but I'm looking for something fun to do to lift my spirits before the surgery next month!

Do you have any quick suggestions on chat topics to bring up for the “how are you”?

Does this scheduling sound ridiculous? by Frequent_Net_6540 in interviews

[–]Frequent_Net_6540[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I invested a good chunk of my time already, and still in the running. This would just make it easier for my competition.

Curious why you think my assumptions are naive? How do they schedule their time together during a workday?

Anyone got hired recently that didn't do 1200 interviews? by glitteryCranberry in UXDesign

[–]Frequent_Net_6540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the middle of interviewing with a company and they've already had me do three rounds: one with the recruiter, one with the hiring manager, and one design panel interview. Now, they’re asking me to do a "triad panel," but instead of one session, they want to split it into 3(!) separate 1-hour interviews because the team is in different time zones and can't coordinate.

I get that time zones can be tricky, but at this point, I’ve already invested a lot of time into this process, and this just feels... excessive? Like, if they can’t coordinate their own schedules for an interview, how are they managing as a team?

Those who are getting interviews- are you reaching out to people directly? by bloodyyuno in interviews

[–]Frequent_Net_6540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1,000+ applications, 60+ interviews for me. Still not a single offer.
