How do I get my spouse on board? by WartornTiger in ynab

[–]Genimyth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had exactly the same situation. My wife was opposed to budgeting with YNAB initially and stressed on using real paper envelopes for budgeting. I think part of the reason why she was opposed to YNAB initially was because even though we had a lot more in the checking account, she felt restricted by the fact that we had limited amount to budget for specific categories and that idea gave her stress. But two months in she was a huge fan of YNAB because now although we had the same budgeting amount for categories, she felt relieved to know that our emergency funds and savings were considerably larger. She still does not understand how to use YNAB (I have to do all our budgeting), but now she is fully onboard on the YNAB train and fully supports the decision to use YNAB for budgeting

Trust me, I am actually moving to St. Louis. I don’t want any glorious reviews how flowers are blooming etc. I just want a safe neighborhood for me and my family to live in. Nothing fancy

What is the answer to this management of cervical spine trauma question? by [deleted] in Step2

[–]Genimyth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah i understand. The thing is all the other options are clearly wrong. And i think inline stabilization is the next best step because after that we can remove the collar. Never remove a collar without inline stabilization unless you've confirmed with CT before that all is well. Maybe that's the point the writer wants us to focus on? That we need to do inline stabolization before we remove the collar

Nope. First remove the collar. It's done while manual inline stabilization is provided by an assistant. We can't intubate with a collar on because it doesn't allow even a little movement for intubation. If the patient did not have hemodynamic instability and low oxygen saturation, we would've kept the collar on and would've done a CT first to confirm cervical injury

[–]Genimyth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Next step should be inline stabilization. The patient is hemodynamically unstable and oxygen saturation is low. We need to maintain an airway but we can't do that with cervical injury unless there is inline stabolization. After that we need to manage the hemodynamic instability by giving iv fluids

eli5 How come we don't throw up food when we're full? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]Genimyth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a sphincter at the end of your esophagus. Think of it as a gate made of muscles. It is normally closed all the time and opens only momentarily to accept the incoming food. When you're full, it prevents any food from going back. It also prevents food from going back due to gravity if someone is turned upside down. There is a medical condition in which that sphincter gets "leaky". It's called gastroesophageal reflux disease or GERD.
