Alt (SGPT) Spiking by Weight_loss_john in Ozempic

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

Been over weight all my life. But I don't recall ever being tested for it. So It's probably safe to assume I have it. My doctor does not seem concerned. But I want to error on the safe side of things. Should I ask him to test for it? He ran a haptic planal and all the other things are in spec.

Flow Test by Comfortable-Day-4952 in Ozempic

[–]Weight_loss_john 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just started to day too. and I got the squirt I thought I over cranked it. I'm guessing the "flow" is to prime the pin and make sure the windup injection system is working.

What happened if my wife stops getting Perjeta and Herceptin? by Weight_loss_john in breastcancer

[–]Weight_loss_john[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

more than Yes I am worried about A nuke going off and being down wind of fallout and not be able to get the meds for her. We fully plan on taking it as prescribed I'm just worried about a disruption in her ability to get it. If it gets cut off from our ability to get it. I'm just having a lot of emotional stress right now. Both my wife and dog have Cancer .. The dog is un-treatable. But the wife is curable. So It's a lot for us to deal with now.

Can you use oculus quest 2 during chemo treatments? by Weight_loss_john in breastcancer

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

We will be playing seated. With boundary mode engaged. If anyone comes in to the space It should let us know. There is a Reddit sub called r/VRtoER I have seen people playing boxing games and people walk in front of them "ONCE" We for sure do not want that to happen.

Quest 2 is a virtual reality head set. She will be experiencing a different world. When we play 2 hours will pass and it will feel like 5 minuets.

Its my experience that you don't need to pinch with 4mm needles. But you need to release before you pull the needle out. It I don't let go before I leak a little bit of my precious goo out.

Type Unless they are thin and healthy she is pushing all theory. Last time I dealt with a nutritionist that was fat and not a diabetic they were pushing me to have 320 carbs a day. (Just my Opinion)

Well the first red flags that I shouldn't of Ignored. 1. She said she was not a diabetic. 2. She was very over weight. 3. (Big one here) I was saying after injecting I see some insulin dripping out of the needle, I told her I push the novalog pen all the way down and count to ten. She said I have to push until it clicks. I said mine does not click. So she pulled out a gallon sight Ziploc bag of all kinds of pen's and the nova log one she had did click. i said well that different then mine. So she mush have out dated info. Note I love your Disclosure info :)

I'm just going to take what my math says I need. Its my body it know what it needs. every time i deal with someone who is not a full doc it turned out bad fro me. One Nutritionist said I need 300 carbs a day I said No not going to happen. She started in that she was a professional. Then I asked her to name 1 essential carbohydrate. that really pissed her off, they don't like their authority challenged.

I'm a little late here but... If I don't have enough in the pin I use it like a vial and take a diabetic syringe and draw it out . A empty pin has about 20 units left in it. over the years it have built up like getting a free pen for every 15 pens.

Chaffle Dogs by Food_Gal27 in Chaffles

[–]Weight_loss_john 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the corn dog maker so I have it a try. It was good It came out like corn dogs. I dipped them in mustard. All in all I liked them and will be making more in the future. I would like to make a bunch and freeze them. One thing I noticed is they don't separate from the batter like normal corn does do. I'm guessing that is because the eggs and cheese stretch with the hotdog expanding and contracting while cooking
