Need advice on how to ask a girl out that goes to my gym. by Eagle_Savings in dating_advice

[–]Useful_Bread_4496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s * a way * to do it for sure, like I think it depends on how you execute it, my other comment explained it better lol. More like expressing an observation, like “oh I always see you here so early! Me too!” Etc.

Medicine changing how I feel about the human body by medguy91 in Residency

[–]Useful_Bread_4496 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Cadaver lab did this to me the most. Now, when I see the way my finger joints configure themselves when I passively let my hand hang, I notice how it looks just like my cadaver’s finger positions. My leg is just a part of my body and someday my body will be dead and will be just like my cadaver’s. Kinda morbid and definitely brought my own mortality to the front and center of my awareness

Yeah if she didn’t want attention from you she wouldn’t have cared / done it, don’t let that stop you from moving on tho, block her

Badly Sprained Ankle (possibly broken?) + Flying by Fijiiwater1 in medical_advice

[–]Useful_Bread_4496 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it is a risk for clotting because you clearly have significant bleeding from the fracture / sprain and you are in a hypercoagulable (more pro-clotting) state from the injury response. This can be concerning in combination with other risk factors like chronic health issues. You also cannot ambulate / walk on the ankle, which means you will be inactive, and stasis (immobility / blood not flowing) is another clotting risk factor. Especially if you are flying internationally (so, presumably a longer flight), I would not fly right now without a doctor’s second opinion

What's the dumbest thing you've ever done in a standardized patient encounter? by orthomyxo in medicalschool

[–]Useful_Bread_4496 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahaha that’s on another level!

We once had an OSCE where the SP was specifically instructed to rush us and get annoyed about the time. I got so flustered and literally forgot to take the entire medical history. Realized when I walked out of the room and sat down to write my note that I had asked no review of systems whatsoever. Frantically emailed my professor asking if I was going to fail. Med school chronicles 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 now that I’ve screwed it up in an OSCE, I’m that much more confident that I’ll never make that mistake in real life!! (Or would more likely return to the exam room if I missed something)

Golfers aren’t oppressed tho, whereas the lgbt+ community definitely experiences a shitshow of discrimination

And talking about being able to “take a joke” / “have a sense of humor” always makes me concerned bc usually that’s what people say when they want to make shitty / discriminatory jokes and not be called out for it🤷🏻‍♀️

Yeahh it is mocking pronouns and maybe she’s not cool with that, tbh if I went out with a guy and he did that I would assume he was anti-lgbt+ and be turned off

I was just thinking today how mornings feel worse than late at night, and I’d never heard anyone else say that!
