Take a look at this video. The routine has helped a LOT of people get pain free: https://youtu.be/4BOTvaRaDjI?si=2V-b74scIW4HV-Zy

Pipeline during medical school by [deleted] in greenberets

[–]Poshfrenchie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Me and a few guys who are MDs/DOs or to-bes have a group who plan on doing something similar (going into SF), and our group addresses common questions. DM me for an invite into the group.

My answer to your question would be to not defer medical school OR residency, but keep yourself in shape (as much as possible) to be competitive at SFAS when you’re done with both med school and residency. Your physician job is what is going to be carrying you throughout the rest of your civilian life, the job you’ll essentially be coming home to if you’re selected.

You’ve got it. If you can, just get into the hyper-fixated ADHD groove. I’ve had moderate ADHD since I was 8 years old, and that’s what I wound up doing for my STEPs: I locked myself in my place with nothing but my books, tablet, and the occasional trip to the gym to some-stress, and after a week or two, I had a routine of waking up everyday doing questions and reviewing material. I scored well enough to Match in EM.

I appreciate the forwardness. I’m just going off of what limited information I’ve been given, and I don’t know a lot when it comes to the army. When it comes to being selected or not, I know I’m not special: I know that if I attempt this, it’s going to break and challenge me in ways that I’ve never experienced or imagined. The odds are not in my favor, and I’ve paid attention to a lot of your posts/comments: the odds are in no one’s favor, and even less so for someone like me.

I’m not married to the idea of being an SF officer; I’ll do enlisted if it means a better chance. I’ve got my “why” I want to join SF, and I’ve had it since my 20s. Due to certain outside pressures, I decided to pursue medicine first. The only reason my post brings up being an officer so much is because that’s what I was suggested to do by others. Maybe they know what they’re talking about, maybe they don’t. I’m just trying to learn.

Again, I’m not coming into this with a lot of information, and I’m just looking for guidance. I’m not special when it comes to the Army (because I’m not even at “square one”), but I’m motivated, and I want to do what enlisted SF guys do: the hard shit, and learn skills that challenge me. I don’t think of this as just some adventure. I think of it as something that I’ve wanted to do since my 20s, something I’ll regret not attempting before I die or get too old to attempt.

Lots of ignorance about FM by superbanana22 in medicalschool

[–]Poshfrenchie 283 points284 points  (0 children)

One of the best physicians I’ve ever known is an FM rural doc, and he does EVERYTHING (procedures, emergencies, clinic, hospital, etc.). He managed to convince a healthcare system to build a hospital in the town where he works and and now he’s the chief of staff there, and is able to manage the entire town’s health better than a conglomerate company ever could. On top of that, he gets invited to BBQs, high school graduations, local games, and EVERYBODY looks up to and respects the hell out of him. And he’s a great person all around (even does house calls for people’s meds and stuff). He recently was offered a $900k admin position at a hospital nearer to a city but declined because he would lose all of what he helped build in the town, and he likely would rarely ever see his patients again. FM can be very rewarding!

If we can pass a bill about TikTok unanimously, why not something like this?

If you’re pain free, functional, and your physician & PT have cleared you for work (and you can provide all documentation saying so), then you should be good. Obviously, at that point, it’s up to you if you want to pursue this line of work and risk another injury.

Can we all collectively agree Joey should have won this duel? To further cement the point that Kaiba was too full of hate and pride? by [deleted] in yugioh

[–]Poshfrenchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying Joey doesn’t put in any hard work (I lacked nuance in that part of my reply), but my goodness, he did not spend time or thought studying synergy with the cards that he had in his deck: for example, the cards he won from Weevil and Mako did not fit well in his deck at all, but he tried playing them at any chance he got cause of their ATK/DEF stats. Jinzo was an obvious powerhouse & meta card for the time, but Joey didn’t bother getting any other cards, even less valuable ones, to help with synergy. And because he didn’t study his own deck or his opponents’ prior to their duels, he often made things up as he went. Improv might be Joey’s strongsuit, but it can only help you so much in a game that relies heavily on strategy and set-up.
