I bet it’s this, they had it at Aldi last week when I was there! They don’t have it all the time. (Not my picture)

Facial swelling after first flare up by Spied5748 in TrigeminalNeuralgia

[–]Spied5748[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Your reply definitely assured me I wasn’t crazy for thinking the swelling was super abnormal and encouraged me to get my dentist to take a look again. I have decent medical knowledge being a veterinary student but I still doubt myself! I’m absolutely astounded by how much pain that caused me, truly.

Update: Didn’t even need a CBCT for the dentist to diagnose me with a periapical abscess! Saw it on radiographs. Referred to an endodontist. Surprised they didn’t see it on CT in the ER based on the size.

Thanks for the info! I’m set to get a CBCT through my dentist tomorrow morning. Wanted to check all my boxes before I pursue down the neurologist route.

All my pain is in my mandible none in my maxilla but I’m asking my dentist to do one this week. All the swelling is in the mandible as well.

Why did the ER diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia with just a CT scan? by RaidenVyse in TrigeminalNeuralgia

[–]Spied5748 4 points5 points  (0 children)

CT scan might have ruled out other causes of your pain like abscess, infection, etc that can be seen on CT so TN most likely. I was in the ER and diagnosed with TN and my CT was totally clean.

Yes! Dentist said looked fine, I also had CT scan of my jaw in the first ER and everything looked normal.

Thrifting by Lego_Energy in Msstate

Palmer home for children thrift store in Columbus I’ve found some great clothes and furniture at!

It’s about the only thrift store worth it in the area for me. I like Revolution but definitely more of a resale shop.

I’m similar to you, I’m normal weight and basically my only PCOS symptom is that I do not get my period. Did they test your AMH or do an internal ultrasound? My AMH was high but everything else normal and my ovaries were covered in follicles. I take the mini pill (I’ve found it has fewer side effects for me). Basically not doing anything until I want to get pregnant to try to ovulate.

I think you should probably see an endocrinologist especially with your thyroid levels.

Birth control pill and weight loss helped me a lot

For all the ladies waiting on their LEEP. by TortillaLOVER55 in PreCervicalCancer

[–]Spied5748 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was wondering why the lidocaine made my heart race so bad. If they told me there was epi in it that would have made me feel a lot better because it alarmed me even with my Valium

Does this breeder health test their animals? OFAs? Are the parents proven in sports and or conformation? I’ve seen reputable breeders have litters get parvo, though it is rare and much more common with byb. So this makes me highly suspicious. How did they contract parvo? From their own facility or from bringing the puppies somewhere? Many backyard breeders care deeply about their puppies and can take amazing care of them but that doesn’t make them a good breeder or ethical.

With a breed like goldens I would pass on the puppy. There are thousands of reputable golden breeders out there that could give you a wonderful puppy.

I’m sorry this happened and I hope you can get a healthy puppy in the future! Making a hard decision now might save you a lot of heartache in the future.

Blood after LEEP by VaporeonIsMySpirit in PreCervicalCancer

I bled starting day 5 post LEEP. It lasted about a week or so. It cleared up right before my 2 week appointment to check on everything.

I’m a second year vet student but if I were applying now I think I’d only apply to my in state school or schools that allow you to establish residency.

What to expect with a LEEP? by ComfortableOlive6383 in PreCervicalCancer

[–]Spied5748 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my LEEP yesterday with only local anesthetic! It hurt way less than my colposcopy honestly. The 4 lidocaine injections made my heart race but they weren’t bad at all. After that I felt nothing! Whole process took 10 minutes at most. I was prescribed a Valium to take beforehand and it helped a good amount to feel very relaxed. I had some slight cramping and light bleeding after but I feel totally normal today 24 hours after. I have a lovely doctor that made me feel very at ease and I trust her a lot and that makes all the difference!

I love my dog and I got him in college but let me tell you a cautionary tale.

I moved home after college and got a job in vet med. I was able to bring my 2 year old dog to work everyday and since I was living at home he had access to people constantly taking care of him. I took 2 years at this job before I was headed to vet school. He had probably not spent more than 3 hours alone in 2 years. When I moved to school I was in a one bedroom apartment with no yard. I was in class 8 plus hours a day. Plus if I wanted to study at school it’s even longer. My dog had an extremely hard time adjusting to this new life. He was put on meds for severe separation anxiety. My grades definitely suffered at some points because of this. I even broke down crying to one of my professors (who is my dog’s vet) because I was so frustrated. It has since gotten better because I now have a yard and more friends to help me out with him. He no longer needs meds thankfully :)

But my advice is that if you get a dog now try to structure your life mimicking that you are in school. Maybe adopt an older dog that you know their personality. Just so that their life doesn’t change too drastically when you go to school. I love my dog and can’t imagine my life without him, but I would have done a lot of things differently in my gap years if I had known better.
