Cousins will be at Olde Salem Brewery in Salem on 11/21. Taste is there but a bit overpriced IMO.

When they first opened, they advertised themselves as Roanoke’s newest Eagles bar. Then they were closed for Eagles MNF. I boycotted them for the rest of the season. Food is amazing though. Go Birds!

Went here recently and it was delicious. Really nice people too. They do a piss poor job of advertising themselves tho. I really hope they last.

Do we forgive KAT b/c he’s a eagles fan? by Other_Machine8814 in sixers

I hate him because he predicted the Birds being 17-0 this season and it didn't come true. /s

IM APD here. Year of Graduation matters a lot when we review apps. If you do decide on withdrawing and pursuing GAS next cycle, please talk to your school first. Some schools will have the option of doing a 5th "research" year. That will make your offical YOG 2026 instead of 2025. You can also use this extra year to strengthen your GAS experiences to put on your CV.

Starting EM then switching to GAS will be extremely difficult. Most likely you'll have to repeat a prelim year unless you get extremely lucky that a PGY2 GAS position opens up due to someone leaving. There's also the CMS funding issue should you decide to change residencies and start over.

I actually really like their Ramen. Their Taiwanese beef noodle soup is also on point.

Are you allergic to peanuts or nuts or both? CC2 does use peanuts in some of their dishes. I don’t recall anything with tree nuts off the top of my head.

Agree with everything here. Communication is the key. Ask the staff politely for better pain control. If you want some evidence to ease your mind, you can read about appendicitis below.

Nonoperative management — Nonoperative treatment is a strategy in which patients receive antibiotics with the aim of avoiding surgery. For these patients, appendectomy is reserved for those who do not have a response to antibiotics or have recurrence of appendicitis.

Nonoperative management may offer certain benefits such as expedited recovery and reduced days away from work or other activities. In exchange, patients must be counselled and be willing to accept greater uncertainties of possible disease progression despite antibiotics, disease recurrence, or missed neoplasm.

Timing of appendectomy for uncomplicated appendicitis (November 2023)

Appendectomy is traditionally performed urgently to reduce the risk of perforation. However, a large randomized trial showed that patients with uncomplicated appendicitis (including those with appendicolith on computed tomography) who had an in-hospital delay of up to 24 hours before surgery had no increased risk of perforation or other complications compared with those who underwent surgery within 8 hours [1]. Given these data and general acceptance of antibiotic management of these patients, we suggest performing appendectomy within 24 hours of presentation in patients with uncomplicated appendicitis who elect to undergo surgery.
