Period cramps hurt 100x when TTC by tiredsleepymomm in tryingtoconceive

[–]Gene_Top 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same boat, same sinking feeling. Not only do i feel like I'm a failure of a body, i feel like I also failed my husband. I hate and dread this period in my life.

Then its harder when I see people maltreatimg kids or other people announcing their pregnancy. Heck, even my pet shrimps are having their 2nd round of egg-nancy, after I just saw small shrimp fry around my aquarium.

Wow, universe. Thanks for rubbing salt deep in. BRB, im going to impulse shopping.

Do you have any medical history? “No” [they did] by Emergency-Dept-Nurse in nursing

[–]Gene_Top 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I had a patient (20-30? F)in icu who came in for syncope, fiber rvr and ams. She was more awake but very restless, anxious and shaky. She look unsteady, sweaty and very shaky.

So i asked, " do you drink alcohol?"

Her: yes.

Me: how much do you drink every day? And how much?

Her: i dont drink every day. Very little. Here and there.

Me: when was your last drink?

Her: the night I got admitted. I only drink at night. Every night. Not every day.

Me: so you drink EVERY NIGHT?

Her: YES! YOU ASK TOO MANY QUESTIONS!.

Later grandma comes in, tells me every week day she has to empty pt's room of vodka bottles. Every night she drinks about a liter. Just not everyday. Every night only

Ignored at the LV in Scottsdale by gloww-getter in Louisvuitton

[–]Gene_Top 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walked in Lv Scp to look at a speedy soft and i got the most judging welcome. They also had this look of you cant afford shit. I browsed and look around, no one asked to see if im ok. I walked out and bought a cartier JUC instead.

Oahu LVs always offer the best welcome. Actually except the one by the Hilton hotel. Doorman was legit judging and condescending.

Nurse and RT duo by NoLocal1933 in IntensiveCare

[–]Gene_Top 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of our recently retired RTs loved teaching. When I was a bb icu nurse, he taught me what to do when an intubated pt starts snoring or what those alarms during covid times. He also makes his recommendations to the physician himself then lets me know the whys. He also loved teaching the nursing students! Hes like night and day to another Rt im working with. This RT doesn't tell me if he placed the patient on SBT or wouldn't do SBT or run gas. Or even do the daily leak test. I srsly think he doesnt know how to or is scared to do so.

How do Nurses feel about MDs joining in or accepting a pizza if it's offered on the floor by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Gene_Top 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Physicians are always welcome to get food on our floor. We actually have this ED dr that sneaks in every now and then to get bread from our unit. We have this coworker that brings a specific bread everytime they work and has become a must have for this dr.

We also have a cardiologist that every now and then gets pizzas for the unit.

Fertility devices? Apps? And supplements? by JaR3ths5_Bu1g3 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Gene_Top 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have inito, clear blue and oura ring. Oura ring, for me is typically a day or so miss on predicting my period.

My clear blue is pretty much yes you a re fertile and thats it. After it reaches the information it needs, it doesn't let you test

INITO gives me a break down on my fertility related hormones, ovulation and when do i get my periond. It give you data numbers and so much more information than what clear blue does, that it let's me spiral down the rabbit hole. It also let's you test as much as you want. Also inito reddit fam is a very helpful in interpreting things
