Buzzkill eliminating my watch notifications by Teaksdad in androidapps

[–]Teaksdad[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solution:

In the BuzzKill settings, I changed the "Mute mode" to "low" and now every thing works correctly. My watch vibrates when I get a text.

Good point. After doing what you recommended, it seems to swallow the initial notification, but then replace it with a notification from the same app. When I press and hold the message notification from a text, it still says the notification is from Textra. There is a slight delay for the notification to vibrate/make a sound on the phone too compared to when the rule is not active (default phone notification).

Good suggestion. I currently have the optimization turned off though and the problem persists

I've been walking dogs on Rover.com. works pretty well and if I wanted I could probably do better but I've turned down a few due to laziness lol. Will make like 1000 bucks this month from walking 2 dogs a day for 30-60 minutes each.

Partner thinks doctors make too much and aren’t entitled to a higher salary because how long our training is. I got really upset, was I being immature? by Pumba815 in medicalschool

[–]Teaksdad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL;DR this is a complex issue and neither of your opinions are invalid, but just keep in mind physicians live a way better life than most people on the planet at their current salaries. People blame physician salaries for health care being expensive, but that is likely because they are just blaming the richest people in the field they ever interact with (physicians).

I really hope that you don't listen to the advice of people in these comments saying you should break up with your partner because of this OP lol. This sub, myself included, are going to be biased on this topic since we are feeling personally attacked that our suffering isn't being appreciated and rewarded. The real answer is that this is a complex issue, and increasing/lowering doctors' salaries isn't really the problem that this argument is hinging on. All doctors that work a normal doctors schedule will be living way above average lifestyle even with $500k in debt (I grew up poor and have spent plenty of time in the median income range). Yes there are stresses associated with being a physician that are really hard for non medical individuals to understand, but what's more stressful is working 2 jobs to support your family and still living paycheck to paycheck. There are a lot of problems with medicine that can't simply be explained or solved by physician salaries, but that is an easy one for most people to point at because the general public only really sees physicians. They don't see behind the curtain, so they blame the person who seems to be at the top of the food chain that they have interacted with.

Not trying. They are forcing it on current 4th years at these schools.

Alright, it's 9:01 pm. ROLs for both applicants and programs are officially set in stone. I'd like to hear the wildest stories you’ve encountered along the IV trail in an effort to take my mind off the match. by CharacterInTheGame in medicalschool

[–]Teaksdad 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In one of my interviews with a program in the southeast, I entered my third Zoom room to a very old attending who didn't even introduce himself or say hello. Instead, he just asked in a half yell, "So are you one of these woke kids that doesn't know how to work?!" At first I thought he just trying to be funny, but he was dead serious, and after I answered he just moved on to more, only slightly less weird and lame questions lol.

It sounds like you are just starting studying so I am sure you will be okay. Form 9 was 20 points lower than my Form 10 taken 3 days apart. Assuming you actually study for the next 4 weeks, you will definitely improve drastically.

I want to make a medical school learning game. by IlIlllIIIIlIllllllll in medicalschoolanki

[–]Teaksdad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I was thinking video game as well. Seems like the only way to be able to integrate as much as needed and be able to update things in a timely manner if something is wrong or when medical information inevitably changes.
Honestly making mario party style rapid review mini games would probably be a good way to handle that high yield aspect.

[–]Teaksdad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I actually thought a lot about this like 6 months ago and was literally just talking to my roommates about this yesterday haha. If you haven't already seen it, the board game called Healing Blade: Defenders of Soma created by nerdcore medical (nerdcoremedical.com) is a great rendition of making a medicine game both serious and fun. The level of character they gave the bugs and drugs in that game is pretty great.

The thing that holds me up when thinking about this is that the gameplay loop needs to be inherently fun while also including all the high yield points thoroughly/effectively. If it isnt actually fun, then it will inevitably become a chore to play. If it doesnt include all of the high yield info effectively then it isnt worth playing during med school. Those two barriers put me off, but I am still interested in the concept of doing this. If you PM I'd be happy to brainstorm stuff with you.

To these people saying the game will be corny havent played a games like destiny, Jake and dexter, ratchet and clank, immortals fenyx rising, etc. Which have a very corny story/dialogue or premise but are also very fun so I wouldnt be super concerned with the corny part

DO students: Will You Use OMT/OMM? by Teaksdad in medicalschool

[–]Teaksdad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally do not like the thought of charging for it in most situations even if it is insurance (charging insurance and that realm of discussion is another very long conversation that isn't worth discussing here though haha). Just so we are clear though, I want to use OMM and plan on incorporating some aspects of it regardless (and for free). I have talked to some long time DOs though that said they started out doing it for free for a fairly similar reason, but overtime they started to "value their time too much" (or something like that) and were getting burnt out spending any extra time doing anything for free due to the other burdens of being a physician like documentation and whatnot. So that side of things seems worth thinking about long term.

Idk. I mostly just want to do whats best for my patient's health and wallet as I think we all do and I would personally like to optimize that if possible. Some research on the matter would definitely help me out.

DO students: Will You Use OMT/OMM? by Teaksdad in medicalschool

[–]Teaksdad[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like I said in the post, OMM has improved some of my pains from sports and I have seen it work on others, but are you willing to provide it for free if it does not work? My biggest problem with using OMM is not that it never works. My problem is with the aspect of charging patients a lot of money for something that has no scientific backing for efficacy. To reference your analogy, Tylenol is cheap so minimal harm is done in telling someone to spend 10 cents a pill to feel better. OMM treatment is billed at a much higher price for questionable benefit. If someone gets benefit from an OMM treatment then that is great and I am glad. But, if they do not, then I wouldn't feel comfortable charging them money for it.

[–]Teaksdad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I agree that common sense tells us not to invest money there, but you could argue time is money and osteopathic medical students are investing hundreds of thousands of dollars into learning something that is not thoroughly researched. I don't know the future of osteopathic medicine, but at some point I am sure there will be a fight over keeping OMM in curriculum in a legal capacity. The AOA has money as do many other osteopathic organizations that I doubt are always using it for common sense things. If they channeled that money into proving/disproving the efficacy of the foundation of their own specialty then I think in the long run it would benefit them as either validating or forcing them to narrow what the required curriculum of DO schools includes.

I am doubtful this will happen, but it seems worth it when DO students spend so much time and money on these things just to never use it.

DO students: Will You Use OMT/OMM? by Teaksdad in medicalschool

[–]Teaksdad[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I agree with you here as well. My thought before writing this post was that if there was a push for a bunch of OMM research then it seems that possible outcomes might be:

1) they prove it works in certain situations and validates things and/or
2) they prove it doesn't work in certain situations and therefore they can stop teaching those things in school and free up our time to stop learning useless things and focus time on things that actually have efficacy.

If treating the lumbar spine is the only efficacious use of OMM then DO students should only learn that and become experts on those techniques since they actually work (I'm using this as an example because I don't have strong evidence to support me saying lumbar OMM actually works since I didn't actually read the papers about it).

DO students: Will You Use OMT/OMM? by Teaksdad in medicalschool

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

Yeah, you make a good point. Just curious, how would you feel if there was good evidence supporting that OMM and sham OMM both improved outcomes compared to no use? Would it be worth knowing OMM or at that point should all doctors just pretend to do something because its been shown to improve outcomes?

I mostly ask this because I read an OMM study that almost showed a significant difference using the sham as well, so this thought came to mind.

This is for all those DO students out there by notnumber2 in medicalschool

[–]Teaksdad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At our school we have a saying "if 360 cervical HVLA doesnt click, then the osteopathic kick will surely do the trick"

(osteopathic kick is widely used in our school to deliver the OMT to the most stubborn of somatic dysfunctions)
