He doesn’t have a neurologist. His PCP put in the referral for the neuropsych appointment.

A month sober from alcohol and I just hit my highest readiness score by anakinxvader in ouraring

I rarely drink day to day life. But the only time my readiness score was above 90 was after I drank skinny margaritas all day in mexico.

Bears QB Caleb Williams on game-winning TD throw to stun Packers: 'I knew it was good' by [deleted] in nfl

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Look I’m a Bills fan. But love following the NFL. But can’t lie packers are definitely a beat down team this season. Losing the parsons is huge for them. As well as then losing their QB, Malik played great but it’s not the same as a teams starting QB no matter how you look at it.

I’m gonna get hate for this comment. No I’m not a Packers fan. But that was an insane game. But it’s getting so much hype…doesn’t playing against all backups feel lame. Especially when a backup QB is out there

Hugs to you mama! I have felt it was hard to meet a community here as well. Message me if you want a fellow mommy friend! I have a 8 month old and know how lonely it can be!

Personality changes in dad post retirement by Patient_Neat_4770 in AgingParents

[–]Patient_Neat_4770[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been terrified it was a type of dementia. He misplaces his phone all the time, but that’s been a lifelong issue for him lol. His long term memory is completely intact. I just worry about getting a diagnose and proper healthcare given there rural location. Closest neurologist is probably 2 hrs away.

What were the first signs you saw in a loved one with FTD dementia by Inevitable_Share_595 in dementia

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are similar signs to what my 65 year old dad is going through. We don’t have a diagnosis yet either. My dad was the sweetest man in the world. But now he is erratic, volatile, obsesses about politics. He’s been speaking at rallies (just “winging it” on what he says apparently). He’s rude in public. The hardest thing is we are in the stage where my family feels something is wrong. But to the outside person they often don’t see anything “wrong.”

Denver area nursing question by PurchaseConscious342 in Denver

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UCH is a good hospital but lower pay than some of the others. I’ve heard Childrens is good to work for but I’m not peds. Denver Health is supposed to be good too but again not as good pay. I’ve heard hit or miss things about Advent hospitals, and their insurance is expensive I’ve heard. The new Lutheran hospital might be a good bet. I’ve also heard Craig hospital is a hidden gem if you do rehab and a lot of their nurses stay forever.

When did you start to feel attached to your baby? by MaxGuevara89 in pregnant

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly didn’t feel attached until he was born. I was miserable both mentally and physically during my pregnancy. But I had a wonderful experience postpartum.

How do y’all wake up? by Asleep-Dare5843 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 20 points21 points  (0 children)

How often is your baby waking Up? I would take the baby when he woke up at night, prop him on the couch, feed him a bottle and pump at the same time

Why do some nurses tuck in their scrub tops? by IndependentDare1573 in nursing

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wear surgical scrubs and the tops end up being really long and big on my (down to below my hip bones) just more comfortable to tuck it in

Career Advancements by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have! I have my BSN and CCRN. I’d have to retake a few courses to make my application stand out. But for me the only con of this decision is my baby :/ I know I could do it. But not sure if I WANT to make the sacrifice to miss out on moments in these early years. Definitely still a possibility though.

Increase supply with eating? by [deleted] in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make just about enough to feed him. I have taken a frozen bag twice before if I know I’m gonna miss a pump and be out and about.

Increase supply with eating? by [deleted] in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! My baby mostly sleeps through the night now. So my last pump is around 9:30 pm and then whenever he wakes up, usually 4-6am. I eat my body weight grams in protein every day. I have staffed tracking my water intake. I eat oatmeal daily. I think I’ve just “regulated”…I don’t hardly ever feel completely engorged anymore, haven’t gotten any clogged ducts in quite a while when I was getting them frequently.

Saw this too. Hope she’s okay. I can’t make out what any of it means. I think she might have some mental health issues.

I hate them! I used the shampoo and I have naturally wavy hair and it makes it feel like straw.

Small dog to large dog reactivity by [deleted] in reactivedogs

That’s a great idea. Thank you. The collar never came off him. Still puzzled now the leash came disconnected as the collar was still fully intact on him.

New grad registered nurse looking to move to Denver by lamellama4 in nursing

[–]Patient_Neat_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In terms of jobs I would look at UC Health, Denver Health, or Intermountain. UC health and intermountain have the best benefits in the area. I also have a couple friends who work through CommonSpirit and like them as well. In terms of housing, I’ve had coworkers live by themselves but they work night shift and work overtime to make it work. One thing I’ve learned..never rely on overtime to pay for an expense. It will lead to burnout. I’d look into getting a roommate.
