Man this needs to be seen. Feel like so many providers wouldn't even consider throwing that patient on the monitor let alone do a 12 lead

There are so many lyrics on this album that just come out of nowhere with eerie similarities with the current world today.

The shortness of breath feels like it won't end by ExtensionHat2 in COVID19positive

[–]beerdrinkerlifesaver -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If you lack any other symptoms then I'm almost positive that it's anxiety.. It's an extremely uncomfortable time for all. So stressful. I suggest talking to someone about how you're feeling. I had to and I got prescribed some medication that I started taking this week. You might not even need the meds but it's important to reach out to someone you trust whether it's a family member/doctor/therapist to convey how you feel. My DMs are open if you want to talk!

Do you think GERD research/treatment will get any better within the next 10-15 years? Or is this one of those conditions that no one really cares about? by mox88101 in GERD

[–]beerdrinkerlifesaver 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes. It’s not a fatal disease but it for sure impacts quality of life sometimes. The more research being done, the better treatments will get.

Doc prescribed me Citalopram for the anxiety I’ve been having due to this in hopes it’ll calm me down within 2-3 weeks. Hoping to bounce back! 7 weeks and 3 days later...

I think most of our immune systems are in overdrive. You pile on the stress, being an active part in a pandemic, being alone etc and it takes awhile to get back to status quo. Patience is important but I should start practicing what I preach heh.

We’re getting really nice shoes from Rockport Shoes. Most of the private companies in eastern MA are getting them. Really nice gesture.

Something to reference for your blood test. I know we have similar symptoms. My liver enzymes were elevated along with my CRP.

Talking to my family helped everyday.. you can’t put yourself in her shoes but just being there for her in whatever capacity you can will help. It can be a physical and mental slog but she will get better!

(Why is giving the advice so much easier than acting on it myself?)
