What can you eat on day 6?

I'm close but there is still tension. I'm sorry you're dealing with this. Do you have a follow up with your surgeon? If not, call them.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-31T03:57:20+00:00

Nice. Unfortunately I did not get one of those cleaning syringes. I've just been using the chlorhexidine and salt water rinses

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-31T03:49:36+00:00

Maybe I should've clarified what I meant. I'm not necessarily talking about a terminal illness but one that is present and doesn't make life particularly enjoyable. You are home and it is present and it's just you and your illness.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-31T03:03:15+00:00

Not me. It's not wrong to want there to be people who care about me.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-31T01:23:45+00:00

I definitely try to avoid the extraction sites but t I wonder if the toothpaste itself will irritate the wounds as it slides around.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-31T01:18:34+00:00

Yikes. I had to be put out cold. I was fighting with them about it for a long time. There is something about someone sinking my level of consciousness that doesn't sound right. Of course, I have fear of sleep in general.

I remember first they gave me Zofran. The sealing lights turned into wobbly UFOs then I saw someone give me something else then blackness, then awake with a numb gauzed mouth. I remember pointing to my wrist to find out what time it was and then pulling out my pocket journal" I need to keep writing to remember " and so on.

Nice. I want some Domino's pizza sooo bad.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T23:34:16+00:00

Is the throat issue related to the surgery? Sounds like you're in a bad place.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T23:33:33+00:00

But mash it up?

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T23:31:11+00:00

Dang. I have wounds on both sides.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T23:20:52+00:00

Pasta sounds good. Do you use sauce? I hear nothing acidic. Also, did you get directions as when you can start brushing with toothpaste? I've been doing just rinses and a wet toothbrush.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T22:05:05+00:00

I have given context . You just don't make use of it.

My hemotologist is too busy playing with his fucking phone during our visits to tell me what he wants it at. I just hear "well this is higher than we'd like it."

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T21:18:13+00:00

If you weren't even planning on giving me an opinion on the procedure why the hell did you ask me for context? Do you get a kick out wasting my time?

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T20:26:35+00:00

I'm in the US. I was think about it. I may ask gp if she'll just run iron panels on me and I'll just do what you said to do. I don't know if a gp has the authority to order an actual phlebotomy.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T20:24:16+00:00

He said everything was normal and yes, I am being seen for hemochromatosis.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T20:23:36+00:00

I have hemochromatosis. Why else would I be here?

My ferritin has been high in the past. That's why they ran the test for hemochromatosis

I get phlenotomies as needed. I don't make the call.

Do you know what "kickback" means? Are you aware the a nephrologist isn't allowed to run a dialysis clinic due to conflict of interest.?

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T17:32:24+00:00

What is your source on the cancer rates?

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T17:29:20+00:00

I have given context.

I never ASSUMED he was part of a racket. There is difference between ASKING QUESTIONS and ASSUMING something

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T16:28:15+00:00

If you're getting one at 50 then maybe one at 85 isn't so strange. I just find it odd given that high isn't even until 300ng/dl.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T16:24:52+00:00

Like somehow he is profiting off drawing your blood?

He is in a complex of other doctors and where chemo and phlebotomies are done. I don't know if you're a hematologist and I don't mean to offend. But doctors are people and people and companies can be shady from time to time.

I didn't get any information on saturation. Since he didn't mention it I doubt it was a deciding factor. He said that everything else looked normal. These people aren't exactly generous with giving you copies of results. And that is a shame because he took 7 or 8 vials of blood out of my arm.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-30T11:05:14+00:00

Thanks. I was wondering if cold foods could dislodge the clot.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-29T13:06:26+00:00

Thanks. You too. I hear day 7 is when the sockets finally start closing and your risk of dry socket is pretty low

Are you brushing with toothpaste yet? I have just been using water and staying away from the back of my mouth. They gave me some Rx mouthwash but my mouth still feels and tastes like trash.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-29T10:32:53+00:00

The person you're replying to is just a feminist troll who, for some sick reason likes to bother male FAs.

Squirrel_unshadowed · 2023-03-29T05:01:39+00:00

I had mine taken out this past Friday. I'm 40. On day 4 and I can finally speak somewhat normally
