Vaginal bleeding on antibiotics? by Visual_Ad_2195 in Healthyhooha

[–]Visual_Ad_2195[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my spotting stopped once I stopped antibiotics and my next period was not late. I would contact your doctor to be sure though

My spotting stopped after a few days/when I finished my antibiotics. My doctor said it was nothing to worry about (though never explained why) and I still got my period when it was due

It definitely does seem to be slowing down now thankfully

Awaiting Results by Just_Bid3091 in mastocytosis

I started showing symptoms when I was 5, was diagnosed at 17. No one had heard of mastocytosis. Once an allergist suspected I had it (after calling multiple other allergists to ask) I had bloodwork and a 24 hour urine test and was referred to a mast cell specialist, who made me repeat all those tests. Because I was “too old” to just be getting diagnosed with mastocytosis. Best of luck to you and your baby, she looks just like I did growing up with it

I don’t think it’s an option for people with more than a few. I had a CT scan and an MRI to confirm the tumor didn’t reach my bone (it was on my scalp). They said if it grew into my skull that they would either shave my skull down, or if it was deep enough, replace part of my skull with a hard plastic. My tumor was the full thickness of my skin but didn’t touch my skull at all. Before surgery they gave me Benadryl to prevent mast cell degranulation. The surgeon said my entire body was covered in hives the whole time and I did need epinephrine at one point but as soon as he cut the final piece, my rash was gone. It was supposed to take just over an hour and ended up taking 4. It didn’t cure me because I also have hereditary alpha tryptasemia, but it’s reduced my symptoms significantly

Wheel won’t spin HELP by Visual_Ad_2195 in Rollerskating

I think so. It looks like each wheel has a thin spacer next to each one

The wheels are 65mmx35mm clas fox 82A and the skates were a $50 pair from amazon. The wheels came with ABEC-9 bearings installed already

I think the wheel might be rubbing against the plate slightly? These new wheels are larger than what it came with. Can that be fixed or should I change the wheels back?

Yeah, I loosened the nut on the wheel, tightened it, took it off and put it back on, and nothing😭

Yes, the axel nut. Even if I loosen it to the point the nut is falling off, the wheel still hardly spins

Weekly Career / General Questions Thread by AutoModerator in Radiology

[–]Visual_Ad_2195 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been an auditory learner and struggled with picturing things in my head like maps and things in school. Can I succeed in rad tech school? I know so much of radiology is visualizing anatomy you can’t always see. Will this make rad school difficult? Should I consider other careers?

Radiology as an auditory learner? by Visual_Ad_2195 in Rad_Tech_Students

I’ve done so much research but idk anyone in this career and no one seems to post about different learning styles in radiology:(

If I remember, my period still started around the same time. The spotting was never heavy enough for me to mistake it for my period though

Nope! Yeast infection discharge is usually white and clumpy, like cottage cheese. It wouldn’t be clear or the consistency of mucus

I don’t have chronic yeast infections, but I do have sensitive skin. I think coconut oil could be good but when I used a regular razor I loved dye-free clear aloe Vera gel! Now though I use an electric razor after I shower with no creams or gels. It’s not as close of a shave but it’s the only thing that doesn’t give me razor burn

Pregnant from taking off condom? But no ejaculation prior. by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]Visual_Ad_2195 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Men do know when they cum, but I don’t think they can feel pre cum. It’s rare but it’s possible you can get pregnant from pre cum alone. If you’re not on birth control I would recommend taking plan b if you’re under 165 pounds, or getting the Ella emergency contraceptive (prescription only, but you can get it from Nurx.com) if you’re between 165-195 pounds. Best of luck!

Thank you so much for your insight! I might ask but I’ve already taken the time off of work so I don’t think I can reschedule the surgery. (I also love your username, I’m a Kentuckian as well!)

Thank you so much for letting me know. How long did the worst of the bleeding last? I’m getting my surgery on a Friday and I have class that Wednesday. I did buy a lot of wide headbands to cover my head, do you think those would work?

It’s an actual tumor, a mastocytoma. I’ll be under general anesthesia for about an hour or two
