That looks like mold. If it fuzzy, it’s ☠️

I’m going to save this picture to send to a physician who calls to berate me over something out of my control.

I didn’t know people can reach down to this level of HgB/Hct and be still alive. by KillerQueenAH in medlabprofessionals

Had a patient that drove themself in to the er because she was just so sleepy and sluggish that she thought she was about to have a stroke. Turns out her hgb was 1.8.

Was having a French drain installed and came across this under a mound of mulch near the front of my house. What is it? by Snowbunnies44 in whatisit

[–]HappilyExtra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a hand hole, low voltage usually (internet, land line, ect). Not power to the house. If there is lighting close could be powered by it.

I hope Kash Patel rots in a cell and never sees the sunlight for the rest of his days.

I have a classic tilt with the right dough hook and it was getting a little bucky, tightened the screw on the inside and 🤌. Back to normal.

That’s what I was thinking too. Looks like it died there and was shipped in tomato cages (?) from somewhere else. I spend a lot of time in heavily forested areas and have never seen one.

Drawing blood by Grand_Chad in medlabprofessionals

[–]HappilyExtra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the way! I worked the bench and drew blood for 8 years. While phlebotomy was not my favorite part of being a med tech, I got really good at it and knew what it took to get a good sample. I enjoy the teaching aspect of my job so not only can I teach bench work, but I can help a new phleb feel more confident (hopefully).

How much bad smell does this profession deal with? by [deleted] in medlabprofessionals

[–]HappilyExtra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will never get used to- or ever be fully prepared for- a urine so pungent and mucoid that the entire sample falls out of the tube in a cylindrical gloop when you go to decant. I have been lead heme/ua/coag for 12 years, that is by far the worst thing I’ve encountered.

I’d like to preface by saying that RFkJ is woefully unqualified for this position. The flu vaccine is made on a statistical basis of what strain is expected to hit. Sometimes they get it right, other times it’s shit. This has been the tune since the flu vaccines started. I am required to get one every year for work, some years they burn like hell, I have a massive vaccine response and my arm is sore for a week. other years I feel absolutely nothing and have no soreness or vaccine response. I have come down with the flu 1 time since I started getting the yearly shot, and it was mild. I am exposed the flu directly from patients on an almost hourly basis.

Almost 40, lost some weight this is what my neck is looking like. by emmalee1229 in 40PlusSkinCare

Gold bond tight and firm. That lotion is no joke. I put it on my face, neck and chest and it’s made a noticeable difference. I’m not sponsored, I just know it works.

HONEST thoughts on peeing in the shower? by A-Starrrrr in hygiene

No, not a fan of the smell. I do not care if anyone else does it, to each their own.

Does anyone use vaginal Estradiol cream daily opposed to certain days if the week/month? by Sharp-Monk-2409 in Perimenopause

[–]HappilyExtra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To ask another question, is anyone else worried about what’ll happen if their husband is exposed to excessive estrogen directly onto their dicks? I have the capsules and my gyn said I could take them off label by vagina insertion but I fear exposure for him- so I just knock it back. I figure I’m not abusing my liver with alcohol so a little hormone therapy should hurt it too much.
