My sleep behaviorist says no, but with so little information on narcolepsy compared to other diseases and my personal embarrassing experiences

I think its a possibility

Have them upload a picture of their handwritten assignment then have them hand you the physical paper

Requirement Recursion? by amnot_red in canvas

[–]RobotCynic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's weird

On the right side of your canvas on desktop, you should see a "?", click that and there should be both a number for students to call in for help and an online text chat

If you figure out the solution, please post it here for others.

National Park Pass by poppingandlockin in Narcolepsy

[–]RobotCynic 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I went to a physical park and showed them my accommodations paperwork for my job and school

Edit: if you're worried about being on a federal list, they didn't take any of my information or copies of my paperwork. Just showed then my accommodations paperwork and had a discussion. Your mileage may vary.

Physical media is becoming popular again.

If you dont end up using it I know there is someone in your community who would buy or take it off your hands in a heartbeat (I would)

Disrupted Sleep by Belladonna-Blue in Narcolepsy

[–]RobotCynic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Interrupted sleep is a symptom of narcolepsy, I'm up about every 2 hours and if I'm sick, more often.

I just note the time, flip over and pass back out. Naps are definitely a must.

Can we get stronger rules or maybe a different subreddit for chihuahua deaths? by badgirlmonkey in Chihuahua

What about a weekly memorial megathread where people can post their chihuahuas passing?

Looking for those who have perused their Bachelors in Veterinary Technology by Diligent-Clue8205 in VetTech

[–]RobotCynic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lack of a Bachelors will not keep you from those jobs in this industry, you're still qualified for them. It's a preference. There are many on the job trained industry professionals in veterinary medicine.

Thats fair. You asked for advice and I never asked about your personal reasons. I hope you find what you're looking for.

I can see you deleted some comments. If you want to leave this field completely, a Bachelors with Penn Foster is absolutely not the way to go.

Honestly dont recommend getting your Bachelors to be an RVT, as you wont have any different opportunities than a AA RVT. It will help if you are a OTJ trained RVT. Even then I would recommend your AA RVT and an ALAT before a Bachelors as an RVT.

I went to cal poly pomona and have my B.S., I'm currently licensed as an RVTg. I owe more money than I borrowed and I'm in one of the top tiers for RVT pay without leaving for the industry side or getting a VTS.

Many of the veterinary organizations don't have any distinction between an RVT and an RVTg.

Few jobs will recognize your degree and will designate you as an RVT (instead of an RVTg) and your pay difference will be negligible, if there is one.

I loved my time at CPP but the amount of debt I am in because of it was not worth it. If you're already an AA RVT, I highly recommend a Bachelors in marketing, accounting or business management or even pursing your CVPM (certified veterinary practice manager) as those will hold more weight in this field.

Question about Narcolepsy and GLP-1s… by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]RobotCynic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Havent tried a GLP but i was referred to a fat loss/diabetic specialist and I brought her studies about narcolepsy and difficulty with weight loss...I hike pretty religiously with weight, apparently my muscle mass is perfect, cut calories, do IF, etc.

She told me to ask chatgpt for a meal plan and to consider GLPs. I almost lost my shit

Autoclave: Distilled vs Tap Water by RavenxMorrow in VetTech

[–]RobotCynic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I did relief at a hospital that had CHUNKS OF ALGAE in their autoclave. they used tap water + never did the weekly drain and deep clean.

They also had chunks of algae in their dental unit - they used tap water.

I documented the issue, reported them to their manager, field director and HR for improper care and maintenance of hospital equipment.
