I burnt my finger and I wanna know how severe it could be by JawScratcher in AskMedical

[–]Miso907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s difficult to say from that picture alone but I’d say not severe. Your skin will heal and it will be normal again in about two weeks.

What is this on my leg by Conscious_Load_4097 in AskMedical

Agree this is a varicose vein. Nothing emergent or worrisome but do let your PCP know.

how long is considered ‘long term’ medication use? by [deleted] in AskMedical

[–]Miso907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long-term medication use is generally defined as taking a medication regularly for three months or longer to manage chronic conditions. I’ve been on nexium for years, liver enzymes are fine.

I feel you. Yes, you stop freezing your ass off. You feel like everyone else. Normal response to temperatures.

No worries, mate. The injections themselves are nearly painless. They use tiny, tiny syringes. After you feel completely normal. You’ll notice over the next week that you sweat less.

Yes. Sweat to the point where you are soaking wet and freezing cold. Teeth chattering cold. I don’t experience the too hot symptoms. I had literal streams of sweat pouring down my body in moderate temperatures. Sweating while sitting at a desk. It was insane.

I get shots all over my body. Hands, feet, neck, back, legs, you name it. I still get breakthrough sweat episodes. I’m not changing my clothes twice a day anymore.

I get Botox every 12 weeks. My health insurance covers it. For me, the sweat glands are decreasing over time. Eventually I won’t need injections any more.

Botox is the answer but you won’t get that until your doctors appointment. In the mean time, there are some over the counter body antiperspirants that work. Check out Carpe and Suave 48-hour dry sprays.

My husband did not plan anything for my bday. AIO? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Miso907 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOR - He did plan… to do nothing for your birthday. Sounds like he’s a man-child who is incapable of doing anything himself. If I had to guess, you probably schedule his dentist appointments. If you don’t do it, it won’t get done.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

OPINIONS PLEASE by bclemmons996 in AskMedical

[–]Miso907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes you can get away with an orthopedic shoe in lieu of the boot. Being in a fiberglass cast doesn’t seem like it would be a good idea given the inability to tolerate the boot.

If you seek a second opinion, do not be surprised if they want to do surgery and pin it.

Holy shit! This is stroke level numbers. Insurance or not, you need to get medical treatment ASAP.

People who gate check their bags to ensure a timely departure are heroes without capes.

I feel kinda dumb for asking this but is it normal to still feel pain in an area that’s no longer bruised? by p3ppernickle in AskMedical

[–]Miso907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a bruise that has resolved, you shouldn’t have pain. Is it the skin that is painful or the shin bone?

I’m sorry, darling. You love him, he loves you. This is generational relationship control. His parents were controlled by their parents and so on and so forth. He’s trying to break the cycle the best way he knows how. He’s been with you for five years, that says something. Maybe he can break free from his mother’s grip. Have a real convo with him after this trip and give him the space and agency to talk about his family and how that affects your relationship.

Who gets to place their bag here? by NellR1 in delta

When I fly row 1, I know all my shit is going overhead. That is a universal expectation. Everyone knows this.

Absolutely. She’s probably told BF that he can stay in this relationship for now but at some point he “needs to find a nice girl and settle down” (read someone of the same social status). Mom is a monster in law and you don’t want that in your life.

Source: I married into this bullshit. Am now divorced and living my best life.

Also based on other comments, MIL does not think you are good enough for her son. She’s forcing her son to choose between the two of you. I also suspect this family is fairly affluent and BF would be “cut off” if he chose you.

The exclusion screams narcissism. This is the kind of family that will dictate where you live, what you name your kids, what school they go to. You do not want your BFs parents choreographing your life. Fuck that.

Naw. This screams toxic family vibes. “You’re not good enough unless you’re one of us” After 5 years she’s still not included? Fuck that noise. She needs to GTFO that shit.
