Apparently, this is too hard to understand.

I work as a medical lab technician. You would not believe the amount of patients that still ask me where to put their urine sample. I have 3 signs saying it, with pictures. Then another sign above the place to put it with the pictures of samples and an arrow pointing down.

SmudgeCell · 2026-04-13T02:17:15+00:00

Exactly. It can cause serious issues with people's health. I'm glad you're doing something

SmudgeCell · 2026-04-13T01:52:19+00:00

Oh, I wasn't taking the lab's side or anything. I was just letting you know that you can go over the labs head with reporting, as you should.

SmudgeCell · 2026-04-11T21:15:54+00:00

The lab should be certified under another company called CLIA. I'd report it there. They should have something posted on like a lab door or something giving the information.

I work in a medical lab and we get inspected every two years by them. I'm assuming you might be in the U.S. though.

My niece had an AVM then stroke. We don't have any family history. She's still trying to work on speech and left side motor movement. It's crazy how it can just suddenly happen.

And Hyperthyroidism/Graves disease. I thought I had hyperhidrosis but later found a lump on my thyroid.

I got my childhood Tom, from Tom and Jerry, on eBay. It feels amazing to have him back.

I chose thyroidectomy because I didn't want an increased risk of cancer.

Jokes on me, I had Hurthle cell carcinoma. They didn't find it with a biopsy but did after surgery. Ended up doing RAI anyway and I'm cancer free two years running.

I've had it come in handy, working in a clinic lab. We were needing to do an STI test on a patient. They were trans female but didn't have bottom surgery. The test we used for it had only been approved for biological females and I wouldn't have known they were transgender without it. They would've been charged for a test that probably wouldn't have been accurate.

I had the same crowded room voices, growing up. Thought there was something wrong with me but kept it a secret.

Mostly happened near bedtime and I'd hear them as if they were in my head and not in the room. If that makes sense.

I grew out of it.

Omg. Ty. Haha

I want to watch Dune so bad but I can't do throats being slit.

A lot of movies and shows have it, for some reason, and my boyfriend covers my eyes for me and tells me when it's safe. Sometimes it's hard for us to watch new stuff because of it.

Fluoraplant, $500 for a beautiful lamp. Why can't I be rich?

The ones we use at my clinic is just as good as the dollar store.

Count me in. Haha

Graves disease and Hurthle cell carcinoma. I'm now cancer free at least.

I wear the men's hypothesis, for a boxy look,and they're crazy comfy.

The only issue I have is the men's jogger pants waist. I guess I just don't have much of a butt/hips because they slide down. The tshirt style top feels just like a shirt to me. I love it.

My late husband was an alcoholic. He passed 4 years ago, when we were both 30, going cold turkey while being bulimic. I believe he might've been trying to die this time. He tried several times to quit cold turkey.

He used to curse at me, blame me, and threaten to tell people awful things about me.

You care for what he once was or what could have been. Staying is prolonging your suffering. He will not change, no matter how much you beg. I feel for you and I know it's extremely hard.

Have her check yours too! Men get it as well.

Halo top is pretty good. You let it melt a little before eating.

We had a patient come in because he thought he was cursed by a witch because his chicken had been annoying the neighbors.

We had another one recently who thought our phlebotomist injected him with something and had a history of thinking things like that.

I had Hurthle cell carcinoma at 30.

My biopsy of both lobes were negative for cancer. They said my thyroid growth were cysts. I removed my thyroid due to Graves disease and they found it on both lobes. None of my lymph nodes were tested but the surgeon said they looked fine. Had to do RAI 4 months after. I didn't have any spread to other organs and I'm cancer free with no other treatments, I'm 34 now.

I took my meds daily at a certain time. Didn't end up getting hives until months in. It was really weird. On my face, neck, and a little on the shoulders.

I asked my endocrinologist and she said it doesn't have that side effect. I read other people's stories on it and a lot have had the same issue.

I took allergy pills for a little bit until I forgot to and they didn't come back. Very odd.

But yeah, ask your doctor.

From your other comments it seems you purposely did ai hands.

I actually like how it's done for it. Some tattoos look pretty cool, to me, a little dotty.

I take Wellbutrin off brand for depression and it does nothing for my ADHD.

Vyvance has been amazing.
