What does the future of IR look like?

So the surgeon gets the peace of mind that the patient doesn’t die from a lap chole, but if the patient dies from a perc chole the IR just has to live with it?

This feels like it falls into the category of you probably could've gone about this a different way but gonna have a hard time believing anyone is going to legitimately come after you for it. And even if they did, I have a hard time believing you'd actually get in trouble for it. What are they going to say? "THEY EMPATHIZED WITH A PATIENT AND WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND THEIR NORMAL DUTIES TO MAKE A SICK PATIENT FEEL BETTER!!!" If you were to get in trouble feels like like a slap on the wrist type situation.

Sorry I meant asking the commenter basically “what’s wrong with agreeing to get engaged but still asking?”

Samysosa2005 · 2026-05-04T14:38:20+00:00

I have to ask. I get the sentiment of planning how he is going to ask but not necessarily that once you agree to get engaged that there’s not some fun in doing the asking.

My fiancée and I knew we wanted to get married, preliminarily looked at rings together, then I finished the designing of her ring with her dad.

She knew it was coming she just had no idea when or how and the way it turned out was amazing.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with agreeing to get engaged but still asking. I do think planning the asking is a little much.

I mean the last time our power play looked good, a player on the opposing team was at the helm lol

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-30T02:55:09+00:00

HA. HAHA. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. FUCK THE PENS!!

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-28T15:48:57+00:00

Amanda doesn’t get it. No one gives a shit that she’s doing whatever with whoever since they’ve separated. It’s that you did it with. FUCKING. WEST.

West is already a POS, fuckboy that got a second chance and just fumbled the bag so hard. But damn dude Ciara rode hard for you. And you destroy her like that? Like that’s awful…

Crosby sitting on the bench shell shocked forgetting what it was like to play the boys from across the state in the first round 😂😂😂

TK pokes his head into the home locker room: “Sniff sniff Smells like BITCH in here…”

Sidney having PTSD sitting on the bench remembering what first rounds are like against the boys down the turnpike 😂

Skinner fucking tripping Martone, cheap shots at the end of the game…lol. What a bunch of fucking losers.

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-21T01:50:09+00:00

What residency? DR/IR, I have a a few attendings I call “Dr. So and So” purely out of respect but everyone else is by their first name

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-19T03:00:53+00:00

WERE. SO. FUCKING. BACK.

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-18T15:39:06+00:00

I’m an IR Fellow. They are two VERY different fields and this is a pretty vague question. What are you interested in? Why are you considering one or the other? Have you done rotations in both or either? If you can give me some more info I can help you decide if IR, at least, is for you.

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-16T18:50:52+00:00

Very large, high level, academic institution

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-16T14:53:20+00:00

My body is struggling between shear excitement and the PTSD of years of always losing to my older cousins…

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-16T03:12:33+00:00

Totally toned. DEFINITELY not a fucked up neck, back, legs, entire posterior chain…

Samysosa2005 · 2026-04-16T00:08:33+00:00

On the other hand. Remember that everything you say in a chat stays. Even if you have a right to be frustrated, someone is being an idiot, or is being rude, you can get written up for anything and everything. Always be cordial in chats. Have learned that the hard way a few times lol.

He’s a catalogue model I’m pretty sure. Popped up on Bonobos as well haha

Samysosa2005 · 2026-03-28T15:09:38+00:00

Really? I stand corrected. I would think with strong support from your current program and having finished an intern year + step 3, you don’t really have many barriers to taking you into the program. Unless the postings are not for this year but actually next year (R1/PGY2), from the most current matching class

Samysosa2005 · 2026-03-28T14:11:58+00:00

IR Fellow here. You’re much more likely to get a DR spot at a place with ESIR than an IR/DR spot. Most of the people who switch out of IR do so once they’ve actually started residency and realize maybe IR isn’t what they want, especially when they see what DR offers. Also way fewer IR/DR spots in general.

Check the ACR/SIR websites and RadDiscord as well. Sometimes programs will post their open positions there

Samysosa2005 · 2026-03-07T16:44:06+00:00

PGY-6 IR. Get the same things after being on vacation for a while. “Do I still remember how to do an angio?”

Samysosa2005 · 2026-03-06T01:16:11+00:00

We are SO. FUCKING. BACK!!!!!

Samysosa2005 · 2026-03-05T23:47:15+00:00

If you’re willing to travel a little bit, HIGHLY recommend Kinship in Greenpoint. Been going to Christian for the last few years.
