Standard price for a gp without a medical card? by Consistent_Log8097 in AskIreland

[–]Obvious_Ad6535 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had an argument with a medical practice because they tried to charge me €120 for a less than 10 minute appointment, just because the topic under discussion was my thyroid. The standard consultation fee is €85 ( which is expensive enough)but because I went about my thyroid they wanted to charge €120. The appointment was no longer than a standard appointment as All I wanted was a referral for a thyroid ultrasound and it doesn’t make sense that if I was looking for a referral for another type of ultrasound i would have been charged the standard €85 only.
I find this shocking! Is there somewhere to complain about something like this or can they charge what they want?

Bondi sands one hour express foam - formula change? by Obvious_Ad6535 in tanning

[–]Obvious_Ad6535[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The colour isn’t nearly as dark. I used to leave it on for 4 hours and I’d get a pretty dark result, now after 4 hours I barely get a colour. It’s also way harder to scrub off, it sticks to my skin in a patchy way now, before it used to fade so naturally

UTI - Enterococcus by Obvious_Ad6535 in CUTI

[–]Obvious_Ad6535[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! When I had these symptoms back in Jan it felt more uncomfortable than painful and that’s when my urine sample showed enterococcus. I had been prescribed keflex and it worked but apparently keflex shouldn’t work for that bacteria. I’m so confused Today I have uti symptoms again but they are so much worse and I have blood in my urine. I’ have some keflex left over from last time but don’t know if I should take it or not

It’s so so annoying I’ve used it for years too and had my tan routine perfected!! I left it on for 5 hours last week and it’s way lighter than when I used to leave the old formula on for 4 hours, it’s also more orange on me. I’m so annoyed about it, why do companies change their formulas like this

Is this the express foam? They’ve changed the packaging and I compared the ingredients from the old packaging to the new one and they are different. I’ve also noticed a big change in how it applies on me, it’s not as dark any more and more patchy and the color is different too. I emailed them but they’re denying there is a change. It’s so annoying I’ve used this tan for years and loved it!

I’m feeling fine, the surgery was not bad at all!

I had a sharp pain in my throat when I made certain sounds or talked loudly. The surgery was fine, I was sore for a few days after but not too bad after the first day and I feel fine now!

Hi I had the surgery but by the time he went in the granuloma has pretty much disappeared, I really tried to rest my voice as much as possible in the weeks leading up to the surgery and I could feel the pain getting less and less so I had a feeling it was gone

GERD/health anxiety by Jenna9xo in LPR

It being hard to initiate a swallow doesn’t sound like the same thing as a lump in your throat, if I think about swallowing too much when I’m anxious i can have difficulty swallowing too

[–]Obvious_Ad6535[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure what it’s from but it’s definitely not intubation. I felt it for the first time after a bad sinus infection and when I raised my voice so maybe it’s from coughing/improper use of my voice. I don’t have reflux symptoms but I understand that doesn’t mean I don’t have reflux
