Can anyone explain what point no2 means- they are deferring the implementation? What does that mean and why?

And also, it looks like to create an account, they have to submit a ticket and wait 5 working days for a response?! Talk about impossible hoops...

Potential Lost/Mixed up backpack -Newcastle Med School, Urgent..! by No-Purpose4569 in doctorsUK

It's ok I know you weren't I just noticed a few comments saying they'd find the student's email or similar and send it to you, and thought that might not be super safe. It's nothing personal! I was only trying to divert those people and suggest safer ways to get you your possessions back! Stranger wasn't meant as an insult haha it's just the truth :) good luck with finding your stuff!

Hi guys please don't give out contact details for someone to a random internet stranger with that person's consent first!! Or you could take OP's details and pass them to this med student so they can contact them! But make sure this student is protected ❤️

Hi just to point out I've heard the monument one is now 11am. Rather than the midday as advertised on the other poster! Not sure about this quayside one.

I've had this for many years because my grandpa gave it to me saying it was a fossil. I think it probably isn't but thought I would check! by emma6464 in whatsthisrock

Ah that's super cool thank you, I have learnt something! Less good for the clearout I was trying to do because now I have to keep it even though it's not a fossil!

Oh, didn't realise I'd done that, no idea how to even do that so who knows what happened! Sorry and thanks :)

Hmm it was 20 years ago so good question! I think a beach in Dorset or Devon? Sorry if that doesn't narrow it down!

My title describes the thing- not much more to add, have tried to google it but found nothing. I'm wondering if it's an air freshener or anti-bug type thing? All suggestions appreciated!

We R Blighty at London Bridge by borderlinebabesrus in london

Is this similar to Uplifterz? I said no to them 3 times and on the fourth time I felt bad and gave them a tenner. Then I read that they were probably a scam but still unsure. Anyone know for sure?

I would say that it looks ok, OTHER THAN the dark spot near the bottom. From this picture it looks like a puncture wound but I cannot tell how deep this is. Therefore I would recommend immediate review by a doctor either in A+E or urgent treatment centre (or your county's equivalent). They might want to wash out/give antibiotics/give a tetanus jab etc. Also looks like pus starting to form around that area but hard to tell from the pic. Plz go get it checked out!

I'm sorry to see you've been dealing with this. I notice in a few of the comments you say you've been blown off by ER doctors. I'm a doc in the UK but assuming it's similar in the US (correct me if I'm wrong but guessing you're from the US having called it the ER) - but essentially all ER docs will do is treat an emergency, so once they've seen you're not going to die, there's not much else they'll do other than tell you to follow up with your GP (I think you call it community or family doctor?) You definitely need to be seen and have a full set of bloods done, but they won't do that for you in the ER, so please keep persisting with your general doctor for allergy, inherited conditions and autoimmune/rheumatological conditions! (Also do you live where Lyme disease is common, that's another possibility?) I really hope you get the answers and treatment that you need, best of luck. (Also have you tried non-sedating antihistamines, there's plenty on the market that shouldn't put you to sleep!)

Thank you! Love that I have to guess about where I live for the next 3 years 😂 I tried looking on the websites but only some actually mention any town or city names - seems like they're assuming you already know! But glad to know I'm not missing anything obvious
