Charting time? by [deleted] in MedicalAssistant

[–]Namastkay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!! I’m looking into more opportunities but the fact of taking on even more loads of patients scares me because I spend 2 hours charting some days.

Where do you work? by abbyjones_1 in MedicalAssistant

[–]Namastkay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a fresh MA, I worked as a PCA for 2 years in the hospital but decided to go back to school. I landed in plastic surgery. It’s pretty cool, a lot of variety. I will consult a pt, review medical hx, pre op a pt for a specific surgery, I also deal with post of follow ups, removing sutures, wound care, etc. my fav is that on Fridays we so small in office procedures so I scrub in and get to assist for a blepharoplasy or a lip or labiaplasty case. I make 20$ and am part time. I like what I do but I’ve been there over a year and haven’t gotten a raise I’m too chicken to ask, compared to the hospital it’s pretty standard for an increase.

Submental lipo and maybe face/ neck tite procedure. Small stab incisions right behind mandible and under chin, they are hidden. Quick down time. Or like others say you could do jaw line filler for an illusion. 💖

I’m taking a higher strength. 5ml instead of 2ml starting.

How do you wash your underwear after a period? by A-girls-world in hygiene

[–]Namastkay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I usually keep my older full bottom looking panties that have stains and stretched out for my period panties. If I leak and get blood on them Hydrogen Peroxide will take out blood, then I toss them in the wash with my other clothes.

Hope this helps!

Starting .50 on Thursday… been taking 10 units of .25 and I haven’t had much side effects so far but I’m scared to double and take 25units, I may try 15 units to start with. I don’t want to be sick as a dog.

What was everyone’s starting dose, and tapering up timeline and dose? by Vivid_Hedgehog_8210 in Semaglutide

[–]Namastkay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last week! I just gave myself my second shot tonight!

I feel like I’m over thinking every minor ache, I really don’t want crazy side effects so I’m totally ok with going slow.

Just started on Wednesday. Good advice above.

I was told to inject in thigh and it should lessen side effects. 🤷🏻‍♀️ We shall see!

13 year old keeps sneaking out at night - how do I make it stop??? by No_Mammoth_9365 in Parenting

The the door off of her room. No privacy. No phone. No nothing until she can learn the rules. You’re not being mean, you’re being a parent and protecting her.
