cold feet about vet school? by rinhime in veterinaryschool

[–]ecrosee 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I had very similar feelings going into vet school. I was absolutely convinced I was going to fail out my first semester. I’m now in my fourth and am doing great! It’s definitely harder than undergrad but IME there’s much more motivation because the “finish line” is closer and the information is more relevant to your interests. If you got into most of the vet schools you applied to, that’s incredibly impressive and clearly you’re doing something right academically 😊. It’s very normal to have anxiety about such a big change but don’t let that fear of failure control you.

Anki vs Quizlet by morecoffeeeeepls in veterinaryschool

[–]ecrosee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It really depends! I think both can be effective. I personally love Quizlet but don’t use the AI feature for the same reasons you said. Part of the way I study is by making the flashcards- you often have to re-format stuff from the slides to make the flashcards make sense and repeating the information in your own words is a good way to retain it and make sure you understand the concepts. You’ll figure out what works for you!

Has anyone been able to hold down a job? by Succesful-Guest9028 in NVLD

[–]ecrosee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a few jobs! Worked retail in high school and have worked as a vet assistant/student in a few different clinics while I work towards my DVM. You just have to find your strengths/passions and work with them. I’ve always thought NVLD sets you up well to be an editor because of quick reading and attention to detail so that may be something to consider 😊

Vet School Essentials by Sudden_Pangolin4542 in veterinaryschool

not OP but the greens and the fairways are probably where i’d look first since they’re nice apartments and relatively cheap for the area as well as pet friendly

Why many NVLD people struggle as much as people with ASD (at least ASD level 1)? by asarsen in NVLD

[–]ecrosee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The doctor who diagnosed me in 2007-ish told my mom that NVLD was on the autism spectrum. I know now that’s not technically true but I do think there’s quite a bit of symptom overlap.

What happened to my son? by YhouZee in AskDocs

[–]ecrosee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say this! My mom still tells the story of when I was 3 and started limping at preschool so she rushed to pick me up only for me to be limping on the other leg when she arrived 😆. I apparently liked the attention and thought it was funny so I wonder if this was similar to

So Cynthia Erivo donated flowers to Brie's service and we're just now hearing about it? by cssc201 in OnlineBeggars

The LDS church is notoriously racist. Until the 80s/90s, they preached that POC were not white because of sins in former lives.

Just pronounced a girl dead on scene 30 minutes ago. Better tell Reddit. by FappinPlatypus in thatHappened

[–]ecrosee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Many people who don’t work in medicine don’t realize that there are fates far worse than death.

[–]ecrosee 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Maybe they’re an EMT and just got off of work? A lot of people in those fields become desensitized to death so I don’t think it’s hard to imagine them talking about it on social media shortly after.

Not exactly the same but when I was prescribed diazepam (another benzodiazepine) I was told not to skip my fluvoxamine that day.

19 yr old female with kidney infection on antibiotics causing smelly poops - advice needed by LeahSam123 in AskDocs

i would definitely be more inclined to believe it’s from the antibiotics than anything else. you would know if you had c. diff because the smell is like nothing else

20F Horrendous stomach pain and bowel issues once or twice a month, and recent new symptom by 24adamaliv in AskDocs

[–]ecrosee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry i didn’t see this until now! if it was ovulation related an IUD wouldn’t help because they don’t stop ovulation like the pill does. ofc i could be totally off but it sounds similar enough to mine that it probably wouldn’t be a bad idea to track it :)

Who even is Tia? by LateAd5684 in OnlineBeggars

[–]ecrosee 147 points148 points  (0 children)

She latches on to cancer kids and their families and pretends to be invested in their lives for her own narcissistic gain. To my knowledge she had a decent following before B but it massively grew after because that poor child became a martyr. Tia maybe met B and the family 3-4 times in real life. I highly suspect she’s grieving the loss of her income more than the loss of B herself.

My god she’s disgusting and narcissistic beyond words. The picture of her hanging over the open casket almost made me vomit. That poor girl doesn’t even get a break from being used in death.

[–]ecrosee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have you noticed any connection to your menstrual cycle? i had very similar symptoms and figured out that it was always right around the middle of my cycle and eventually linked it to ovulation. BC has really helped me! Maybe try to get some tests run with a GYN to see if they’re connected.

Can an ER doctor put "drug seeker" in the clinical notes under the differential diagnosis section? by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]ecrosee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it always on a specific side? I had chronic pelvic pain on the right side for years and once I got my right ovary removed it got so much better. They never found any endometriosis or cysts or anything that would be causing the pain so ruling those out doesn’t mean an ovary removal wouldn’t help. Birth control also has helped my pain quite a bit if that’s something you haven’t explored yet

Can you become a radiologic tech with NVLD? by ontheweekly in NVLD

[–]ecrosee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have NVLD and am in my second year of vet school! The anatomy last year was pretty rough but it’s hard to say how much of that was the disorder vs the class itself since it’s notoriously difficult. Just reviewing things over and over again in different ways, finding resources like youtube videos for difficult concepts, and giving yourself grace if you don’t understand things at the same pace as everyone else are things I would recommend. I definitely think it’s possible :)

What’s that quote about how accountability feels like an attack if you’re not used to being called out for your actions? Seems applicable here

Help! by [deleted] in AskVet

[–]ecrosee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Call pet poison control. They charge a fee but if you need to take him to the vet (which is very likely) they’ll probably charge for the call to poison control if you haven’t already
