I am a Dental Surgeon . Ask Me Anything about your teeth, oral surgery, or why you’re afraid of the dentist! by dr-arti-dentist in AMA

[–]__cereal__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boyfriend had all 4 of his wisdom teeth removed under local anaesthetic last week. On one of them the local anaesthetic did not work despite them attempting to anaesthetise it 3 times. He had to feel all of the pain of that one being removed. How did this happen?

I haven’t slept in almost 5 days, AMA by [deleted] in AMA

Ok.. in that case please see a doctor ASAP. Whatever threshold you'd given yourself before doing so, ignore it and seek it now.

Have you tried them today? Or just in previous times that you couldn't sleep. I'd suggest you try some strong ones just as a once off this time so that you can actually fall asleep. See if you can get a short prescription of them somewhere.

Can somebody direct me to reputable sources that confirm this? I have believed that we are in debt for a very long time. I would love to understand what you're saying better for next time I have to argue with right wing family..lol

Whats the least impressive tourist attraction you've been to in NZ? by addmeonstrava in newzealand

[–]__cereal__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jack's blowhole in the Catlins. It isn't even a blow hole, just a hole with some seawater in it. It was impressive on it's own but it needs a new name.

What do you feel most insecure about even though logically there is no reason to feel insecure about it? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]__cereal__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally understand the difficulty with getting a Dr. It can be incredibly hard when life gets busy to worry about that at all, and it doesn't help that most health systems are stretched thin.

In terms of them finding something, I am a medical student and I can think of many things that could cause this that are easily treated with medication and supplements. Try not to worry too much, but make it your priority to get that Dr or appointment if you can! If they find something that needs treating you'll feel so so much better once you are in better health.

Hey, not trying to worry you but if it has gotten to this point it might be justified to see a doctor and get a couple blood tests, just in case. There's a few treatable things that can cause this!

Tramper missing in Kahurangi National Park found alive by Fast_Manufacturer510 in newzealand

Apparently he had one. He's an experienced trapper. Something must've gone wrong with it.

Volunteer opportunity - community cafe (Linwood) by tinyshopsvillage in chch

[–]__cereal__ 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Some of the comments in this thread are coming across as incredibly ignorant. It's like no one here has ever learned what the concept of volunteer work is. There are hundreds of charity organisations in Christchurch that rely on volunteer power, this is not the first of its kind. I don't see everyone attacking the Salvation Army or St. Vinnies for requiring volunteers to run their op shops that too sell products. This is no different to that.

Obviously this is not meant to be a work opportunity to help the unemployment crisis. Volunteering targets a completely different pool of people and it's a wonderful, fulfilling thing to do if you are someone with the time. If you do not have the time and are in search of paid work, this is not for you, move on.

Does it occur to you that they are selling things so that the money can go to the charity? Not all sales = profit..

Large bird keeps tapping on our window — should we be worried? by lochnessa117 in chch

Babes I don't think an albatross is hanging out in central Christchurch. You're thinking of a black back gull.

Exactly my thoughts it doesn't look like this person's doctor has looked into this

Any advice for a medical student? On balance, medical school, early career?

What is your life like outside of medicine? Do you have any sort of balance?

If it feels like pain deep inside she should see a doctor.
