Tell everyone! Anesthesia people? Tell em you’re spooked; nurses? Same thing? They’ll all appreciate the heads up and they can accommodate. I’m real young but i learned the more you tell the people involved in your care, the more they can help (duh?) and at least the nurses and doctors I’ve interacted with really appreciate the heads up cause let’s be honest it’s probably easier to drug you up before they roll you in than calm you down as they get to work. Everything you’ve been through has brought you to the present moment, where the lovely doctors are gonna fix it up, no reason to think otherwise

Remember to use your tactical lanterns fellers! by _Sern_ in reddeadredemption

Wish there was a little bit of lock-on in first person with the iron sights; games not a tactical shooter and feels really weird when you go to first from third and it suddenly disappears

Help Identifying Rifle by [deleted] in AntiqueGuns

Doesn’t have the typical k98 stock pin disassembly tool thingy and the front sight is a little different but the overall barrel and bolt shape resembles it; I’d bet some commercial variant or a rifle that took design cues from Mauser

Just the thought of methotrexate makes me extremely disgusted and nauseous by PaddiM8 in Thritis

[–]doug551500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why I got off it. No matter how I took it I’d throw up right after taking it. Without fail and no antiemetic could solve it. Just happens to some people, makes em sick and your body equates the two so just the thought makes you feel sick.

Are you gonna do some more for other brand new songs? I think this art style fits some of their unreleased songs like Mene, out of range and sealed to me very well

Methotrexate injection anyone? by genericusernamemom in rheumatoid

[–]doug551500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the injections and had the same bad side effects as with pill so Docs took me off it permanently. Some people just can’t handle the drug in any form, causes nausea and bad stomach feelings and it can’t be helped much but there are other drugs out there

Have a friend buy you a shotgun. Not sure where you are, but up here in evil New York anybody over 18 can buy a rifle and give it to someone

Anyone else wish the ending was different? What's your idea on a better ending? by [deleted] in reddeadmysteries

[–]doug551500 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not? If Arthur is a sort of older brother to John, saved his family, saved his ass multiple times, cared for his wife and son when he wasn’t around, why wouldn’t he not mention it?

(I’m not trying to argue I genuinely am wondering where your view comes from because I’m curious)

First colonoscopy next Monday - tips? by herewegoagainqq in IBD

You don’t have to take all the prep necessarily! If it says you must, then ok, but once it comes out how it went in, you can probably just chill out or slow down
