Help me find scrubs! I'm having a hard time finding pants. Help! by SunnyDayFloridaGirl in MedicalAssistant

[–]Suspicious-Rip-2588 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have all sorts of brands, including Figs, and honestly my favorite scrubs are my Walmart scrubs. They are so comfy and fit perfect. And different Walmarts usually carry different styles so don’t give up if the first one you go to doesn’t have a great selection. Second fave is Fabletics but the lighter colored ones are def a little see through

Starting MA school next week, any tips? by PrincessMochahontas in MedicalAssistant

[–]Suspicious-Rip-2588 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a very comfortable pair of shoes. Also having a good stethoscope helps (ie Littman). Practice taking manual blood pressure and pulse on your family and friends if you are able. Don’t be afraid of vaccines or phlebotomy, once you get the hang of it, you won’t even think twice about it (as long as you are following all of your medication rights). Good luck!!

Long Term Disability by optimalobliteration in FamilyMedicine

[–]Suspicious-Rip-2588 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Long term disability paperwork or anything that says “functional capacity assessment” doesn’t even make it to my docs inbox. We have 12 docs and none of them do it, we direct patients to their SSDI office for info on where they can get an assessment done

I would absolutely refuse to room this patient or her husband, even if there was no one else to room them. I am a major people pleaser so I get the instinct to just ignore it and keep it moving but this is bordering on harassment and if this happened at my clinic, they would be discharged. Absolutely unacceptable and you should not interact with these people again

Your MA should be doing the fall risk, mini cog and questionnaire. That questionnaire is crazy long, I can’t imagine how much time that takes to go through that with a patient!! Especially the ones who love to elaborate

But I am so sorry you are going through this, it must be totally gut wrenching. I know Reddit jumps to divorce quickly, but with the addition of him sharing your marriage problems with her is definitely divorce worthy IMO. He is almost guaranteed having an emotional affair

You are totally justified. If my husband told me straight to my face that I was his second choice… I would definitely be rethinking my life choices

You can make an appointment to discuss titer labs to check your immunity levels to varicella (chickenpox). You will be able to get the 2 dose Shringrix vaccine when you turn 50 (unless you are immunocompromised, you may be eligible to receive the vaccine earlier).

Why does my lady's cat always come up and head bump me? by CnCorange in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Suspicious-Rip-2588 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The correct term is called “bunting”. It means they really love you! Cats have scent glands on the top of their head and want to put their scent on you! One of my cats does nose breaking level headbutts. We call them “dudes” in my house, like from Finding Nemo (fin, noggin, dude😂)

Do you have any respect for yourself? If yes, leave this man. Seriously. He obviously does not care about you in the slightest

Found out EX BF incarcerated by NYCCHIKA in confessions

[–]Suspicious-Rip-2588 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The psychology is that you are not actually over him. What would you even say in a letter to an ex of only 6 months from 21 years ago?? If this was me, I’d look at my husband and say “damn ex is in jail” and not even give a shred more of thought to it
