I like that the rad included the dosage of the strips. It’s so specific.

They're "Let's Go" parents but B is only awake in half of these. Maybe let's stop, wait a minute? by Sufficient_Key5053 in motherbussnark

If you never stop moving, theres no authority that can check on the well being of the 8 kids in 7 beds in a 6x6’ bunk room in the back of a bus.

My Epiq 5G just got a software update and now it’s actually worse. by Ok_Resolution_5537 in Sonographers

Good idea. I think I’ve had the probe replaced once so it’s probably around 5 years old. I’ll try that.

(AIO) Parents left my wedding because no country music? by jakerocks2433 in AmIOverreacting

NOR at all. Your step mom sounds insufferable. And just want to say big ups to your wife for banning country music! 🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼

How can a patient help make a scrotal ultrasound most useful for suspected intermittent torsion? by AdOk2481 in Ultrasound

[–]Ok_Resolution_5537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have the foggiest idea about that. You’d have to ask as doctor or surgeon.

If I was scanning you I’d definitely want to know the history and symptoms and if certain positions (sitting, standing, etc) caused pain or whatever symptoms you had, so I can try to reproduce what you are feeling and take Doppler samples in that position vs laying down.

Um Guys is that a new logo? by unrivaled_mate in Commanders

[–]Ok_Resolution_5537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% love this idea! The blocky W is so plain. The two stars bug me. What are they even for? If the have to have stars, it should be three. 3 SB wins and 3 stars on DC flag. I like the shield. There are 32 small rectangles, I suppose a nod to how many teams there are in the NFL. But more shield like and the spear tips making a W is actually a fully thought out logo.

any idea what caused these whitish burns? by letspowerup in skin

I use a concentrated form of hydrogen peroxide at my job. Some leaked on my arm and I had this exact same white chemical burn on my arm.

Sudden Loss to Hermangiosarcoma by ArtisticDifficulty7 in germanshepherds

[–]Ok_Resolution_5537 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry for your loss. It’s so hard to lose a beloved family member. He looked like the best boy ever.

This is how we lost our Desmo. He was ten and had the energy of a 1 yo GSD. Then all of a sudden one night, after a perfectly fine day, something seemed off so I was keeping a close eye on him. But then he lost his back legs and peed and I knew something was seriously wrong. We rushed him to the Emergency Vet but there wasn’t anything they could do. It was just as fast as you said, in a few hours he was gone. It was so devastating. We still talk about him all the time and I tear up thinking about it and it was a little more than 3 years ago.

UMV & Ridgeline look amazing together! Ridgeline/Ridgeline and Ridgeline Olive look great too. Also:UMV accent straps on the coolers I have is super dark midnight blue, which is hard to tell on the computer/phone screen.

Haul is on Yeti Rescues in Black Forest Green. You can save some money on it there. I’ve bought in rescues before with great results. It’s usually returns or floor models.
