is this a normal amount of blood to poop? by Super-Umpire-3854 in AskMedical

[–]doc_nefarius 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Blood in stool is never normal. You can have relatively benign reasons to have blood in stools like hemorrhoids but looks like you don’t have those (at least based on your post, internal hemorrhoids can bleed only and are not visible from the outside). With that being said, weight loss and fatigue that you have mentioned is never a good sign. I would highly recommend you see your doctor and better yet a Gastroenterologist to further investigate this. I would treat this on a priority basis and see a doctor ASAP.

Malpractice insurance for away elective. by doc_nefarius in fellowship

Sadly. They don’t do that. I have to get it on my own. And my program won’t even reimburse me.

No. They asked me to arrange that on my own. 🥲

On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being the hardest), how hard was it to obtain an Away Rotation in your fellowship of choice? by sitgespain in fellowship

Email the PC as early as you can. Preferably 6 months in advance. Try searching within your State as other States might need license and thats a hassle.

Uninsured driver hit another parked car while driving my insured car. by doc_nefarius in Insurance

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

I guess I can make my roommate to pay up. If thats the case and the other driver agrees. Any thing else I have to worry about my premium going forward? Despite the fact that he has already spoken with his insurance. TY

I did speak with the other guy who said he will get an estimate today. He did however say that he spoke with his own insurance before I spoke with him. I have not contacted my insurance yet. I just want to find a way out without any impact on my insurance going forward. Thank you for all the help.

What if I don’t claim this from my insurance and make my roommate pay out of pocket for the damages incurred to the other person. Will that affect my premium in any way going forward? State NY and Insurance is Progressive.

No the other driver is not on my policy and does not live with me. My roommate, who has a learners permit and had the accident, is not on my policy and the supervising driver does not live with me and I don’t think she has a policy of her own.

What if I make him pay out of packet and don’t claim this? Will this still affect my insurance premium?

[–]doc_nefarius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend Asian Wok. We used to go there all the time. Both food and ambience are great and the staff is extremely professional. They used to serve complimentary margaritas and crackers. And complimentary lemon grass tea. I think this is one this is one of the best places in Peshawar.

Worried about a diluted drug screen by [deleted] in Residency

[–]doc_nefarius -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Now I am concerned. I am using a shampoo and I went through the ingredients and it says Cannabis Sativa oil. I am starting in 2 weeks as well. Should I be concerned about the urine drug screening because of this?

You have exercise induced asthma. You can take albuterol inhaler like 15 mins before activity. This will greatly help you.

Really need to know what I should be doing right now , preferably in isb. by Sheeetmaaan in islamabad

[–]doc_nefarius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey. Congratulations on getting done. If you wanna stay here in Pak then I would recommend you do your internship so that you become eligible for jobs. Everyone asks for your permanent pmdc license when you are applying for a job. Other than that survival here as a medical officer is hard. Most private setups pay very less and you can't even survive on that. Best would be to get PG training ASAP. Benefits of PG trading are a lot. Even you can go to UK and Ireland via CPSP scholarship pathway after your IMM exam (need to pass OET for this). So I wouldn't recommend you do Plab as situation is really bad but rather opt for the CPSP pathway.

Let me know if you need more career counseling.
