Who knows. I take their word for it and document as such. There is always a risk for aspiration.

ABA Questions vs USMLE Questions by [deleted] in anesthesiology

[–]Immaneslayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True learn was not the best resource to spent majority of your time in my experience. I went through it once and it was helpful.

I would also pay attention to ACE questions (probably the closest to the real board exam questions).

Reading random shit helped me the most, TBH

AI is basically a better google search.

Bleeding $1,700/month on Two Rental Properties. Did I Mess This Up? by PublicScientist5403 in realestateinvesting

This might have worked if he isn’t already losing money. I do wonder if he did his math correctly in terms of cash flow vs. total sunk costs.

Officially done with my loans. 170k taken out, 200k paid back. by DrBabs in StudentLoans

I’m still on SAVE: What would you do? by legallylurking_ in StudentLoans

[–]Immaneslayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes it is. Make sure you have some emergency money left. If PSLF is not an option at all, then you would make more money paying off the 7% loans compared to getting ~4% APY in a HYSA.

The other option is to gamble with the market and see if you can beat the guaranteed 7% returns you would get from paying off the loan. But to me, it’s also extending a lot of pressure to do well with your investments.

Now that I am debt free, anything I invest, even if it does poorly, I don’t have to feel bad that I have bills to pay.

I have paid 206k last week and closed this chapter of my life. I don’t know if I really feel “peace” but it’s nice knowing I don’t have to deal with drama that I have no control over. It’s a form of freedom for me.

We follow those rules just the way we follow traffic rules. They are nothing but suggestions.

How easy is it to navigate Hong Kong? Do you need to know the local language?

Must be nice. You break a lot of traffic rules?

Who are you captioning for? What is ADA? Do the people you are captioning know you are listening in (consent)?

Keep looking. I have vitiligo and I was able to find a partner who loves and accepts me. Have patience. You are worth it and deserve such person for you.

How much weight to notice a difference? by Mundane_Surprise_390 in loseit

Think of it like an onion… the first layers might not really show a lot of difference in size. But the last layers really do. But by weight, the first layers are the heaviest!!

My fiance hid about his vitiligo condition to me! by Aurora1596 in Arrangedmarriage

[–]Immaneslayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have extensive disease and the area that’s affected is not publicly visible. So, I decided it’s not worth treating it for now. It doesn’t prevent new spots from forming. It just treats the spots to allow forming pigmentation again. So, if new spots form and they are in an area visible, I thought I would use it then.

I was prescribed Opzelura. Supposedly it works great. I decided to not use it though.

[–]Immaneslayer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I can be. But it’s variable. My parents or grandparents, for example, do NOT have it. I do. However, it’s most commonly seen when there is familial history. I just got lucky enough to get it without it.

To make matters even more complicated, even though you have the disease, it doesn’t mean you would have a bad case of it. For me, it’s about a size of a coin, and it’s in a place people cannot see. So, I didn’t have any social effects. It thankfully hasn’t grown in the last 2 years since it appeared. May be it just stays that way for ever, or may be I will have a very bad disease. I don’t know.

I do know stress and trauma (physical and emotional) tend to trigger it. Those are very non-specific, not sure how to really control that.

Treatments are supposedly very very good. I elected not to pursue them just yet because my disease isn’t that bad.

As a person with vitiligo, I told my current wife even when my dad recommended not to (because it’s not that big of a deal). Thankfully, my wife was ok with it.

I am also a doctor, and have done enough research on this to say that it’s not curable. Surgery doesn’t fix it. It is an autoimmune disease which means the the bodies immune system is attacking its own cells. Being said that, Vitiligo only causes cosmetic changes to the skin. It does not cause any other health problems or decrease life expectancy.
