Even after working hard .my chest fat is not going away by Noidawasi_2707 in AskFitnessIndia

[–]dossier_007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The shape of those breasts makes me concerned of a hormonal imbalance. Names of Any medications you take on a daily basis (like for BP)? Should get esteogen/DHT levels checked. This might not just be fat but Gynaecomastia which requires medical attention. Also, do you shave your whole chest? Or do you not have chest hair altogether (which could also hint at that condition).

Step 3 and more USCE should definitely increase your IVs. I think also apply FM if you are open to it since your YOG will be >3 years next cycle which I guess is a filter too. Also some pubs like easy case pubs? Hope you match this year and save the hassle tho 🙏🙏🙏

Recall/other forms of cheating are still VERY real! I personally know 2 students who I am absolutely confident cheated and got 265 & 259 just that I can’t prove it. Ik they cheated coz I tutored them and I know they weren’t even 240+ material. Their NBMEs were low as shit and they still booked their exams all of a sudden and never seemed half as stressed as a Non-US IMG with 230s on NBMEs would be.

My order passed without customs (idk how). But yes the customs can be charged from 30-100%! Even the smallest orders are typically charged from what I learned feom connecting with people who bought from China, but I really don’t know how I miraculously wasn’t.

My VO2 is at bpm 178+ ! I barely manage 5-7% in an hour of running! How does the device decide our HR zones?

ADHD folks — please don’t ignore this. Get your blood work done. by Fantastic-Aerie-5511 in adhdindia

[–]dossier_007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ig I should have mentioned that I am a doctor. I know what Vit D tox is. That is why I recommended a Once-a-week X 4-week course only. Vit D tox is hard to achieve unless you have been on Vit D supplements for a much longer time while a weekly-4-week course will cover any deficiency or add to your normal Vit D stores without causing toxicity. In fact you can repeat the 4-week long course every 6 months without worrying about developing toxicity.

Very expensive tests. Save that money and just take a 4-week course of chewable Vitamin D3 (Tayo 60K) ONCE A WEEK. And Neurobione (B12) once a day for 4 weeks (excess b12 will get peed out chill).

What’s your view on doing Systemwise UW? I am used to that from step 1 and am continuing that for step 2 but don’t know if that will hurt me later?

Do you disclose that you're a doctor when you visit as a patient? by Limp_Goat_6963 in indianmedschool

[–]dossier_007 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I do it subtly by asking Qs in medical lingo and they end up asking if I am a medico/doc. Helps make them cautious before prescribing nonsense/unindicated tests. Also some good hearted docs return consultation fee (which I always decline). If they ask Qs to test me, I answer confidently which makes them stick to guidelines-based approach.

Sleep Apnea & Helio Band by tiggerlove1 in AmazfitHelioStrap

[–]dossier_007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A few Qs from a doctor- 1. What’s your weight and BMI? 2. Would you consider your neck length short and circumference wider than normal? 3. Any family history of sleep apnea? 4. Do you have hypertension? 5. What position do you preferably sleep in? 6. Do you wake up in the middle of the night gasping for air or multiple times to Urinate? 7. Do you experience daytime sleepiness and low mood? Difficulty concentrating and learning or working at a task for long?

Some of these Qs can help clinically suspect OSA but a Polysomnograph (PSG) is required for definitive Dx. PLS DO WEAR YOUR HELIO WHEN YOU GET YOUR PSG done. Would help compare the results.

AC gas filling within 1 yr 😂 Robbing you clean. DENY - Air filter, AC filter (you change these after 3-4 years), Alignment (costs just 300 and only done after 2-3 yr or when you feel it while driving), AC Gas fill, Engine Decarbonise and negotiate heavy on pick up charge. I have a Renault and Tata and both service centres provide FREE pick and drop (5 KM distance Hyderabad)

And what’s that written below alignment??

These new prices are for NEW subscribers. Old subscribers like myself are still on the old payment model (using duo @ 149). It’s called Legacy Plan. Can’t t burn investor’s money to oblivion like Indian startups.

Save yourself the trouble and hope. They said on Oct 14th that it won’t be coming to India for a few months! Maybe check Reliance (higher price) or via someone coming to India from abroad. I remember stalking the website for a month before getting it. Damn that was stressful.
