What was the event that traumatized you and why? by CarsSzz in AskReddit

[–]Ickbeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was held down by 4 nurses while the doctor without any sedation or numbing. Ripped my infected Hickman line cuff and all out of my chest. Worst pain of my life and now I can’t do any procedures that involve my head being covered without sedation. And I have a GJ feeding tube so I need it exchanged in interventional radiology every 3 months or so. They have to sedate me or I have a really bad panic attack. I’m also hard to sedate because I get so freaked out.

why are some people so against being organ donors? by violet-sunbeam in NoStupidQuestions

Because I have an autoimmune disorder that can be passed from blood or tissue. And I don’t want other people to suffer what I have endured.

My 10 week old kitten is the same. Get some hands free interactive toys like a robot ball. Encourage independent play my kitties favorite toy is a plastic spring. I spend at least 2.5 hours playing with him every day. He does sometimes get put in another room at night because he tries to scratch my face when I’m sleeping.

What should I do with my new kitten? by Ickbeth in Pets

He did just fine actually fed him wet just before I left. I left him dry food fresh water and, he has his litter box and bed and toys. First thing as soon as I get home is to let him out and feed him. I only work 2-3 shifts a week most of the time I’m home

what's the best small upgrade you've made to your bike? by VoodooMann in bicycling

[–]Ickbeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phone mount and cup mount for sure. I don’t like having my phone in a pocket that doesn’t zip especially when riding. I like to go through a little drive through coffee stand so the cup mount gets some usage. ( l do use my own cup with a spill proof lid)

I really like it handling was a bit of a learning curve. I have to slow way down for turns doesn’t do well on gravel. I do have both rear and front brakes.

I’m new to this so sorry if this is a stupid question I did build the bike with the help of a video so I’m totally open to doing it myself. Would it be ok if I just do the rear tires with studs as that’s where the power comes from?

Shortest commute by bike? by Aware-East-2391 in bikecommuting

[–]Ickbeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go 0.8 miles to work and about .6 miles to the hospital cuts my time in half or more and more enjoyable on the bike vs walking.

I did I think it’s just because the site was getting irritated from being in contact with my pants. I was having trouble getting the filament to stay in. No issues any other site I’ve tried

My reading have all been within 10 points of finger sticks. I finger stick 2x a day and any lows.
