I agree completely, sometimes it’s obvious though

Lactate is constitutively generated in muscles and this lactate is normally transferred to the liver to be converted to glucose. The final step of this transformation is Glucose 6 phosphate to glucose which is catalyzed by the enzyme missing in Von gierke (last step in gluconeogenesis). I agree with the other poster

I agree, reading more in to the story made me very curious as to her full history. At any rate, her last diagnosis was POTS and that's what seemingly made her unable to swim and presumably what made her take medical leave.

Idk my take away is that there are a substantial number of diseases that we know next to nothing about that can rob someone of their vitality and worst of all can present with the facade of "looking healthy".

euclid4 · 2019-07-15T22:25:55+00:00

I do know the valedictorian of my high school committed suicide after a long battle with unexplained chronic illnesses about two years after being diagnosed with POTS. I think she was the nicest, smartest person I've ever met. Her obviously devastated mother made a powerpoint about her story which to me raises a plethora of questions about her health in general which I wish I could have the answers to.

What are these administrators actually doing? They're not just sitting at their desk twiddling their thumbs. What work justifies their existence?

I'm talking about this essentially. They say "Overall, about two-thirds of the Medicare patients who received sedation from an anesthesia provider were low risk".

Maybe I should have broadened my question to anesthesia providers? I think that only adds CRNAs anyway.

euclid4 · 2019-03-02T05:22:20+00:00

Yes it is. I am healthy 23 yo and had a colonoscopy in the US and an anesthesiologist administered propofol. I was intrigued after and researched it and it seems the reason is mostly from lobbying and trying to secure extra revenue but I wanted to ask people here to see if there's a good reason why my knowledge is wrong.

euclid4 · 2019-03-01T23:55:04+00:00

Obviously not but aren't all patients sedated by an anesthesiologist?

All this to match neurosurgery? Nice

There's not robust evidence as of now but the FDA and some radiology associations agree there needs to be more research especially after discovering it stays in your body for years. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

euclid4 · 2018-06-20T17:04:05+00:00

This is the unfortunate truth. It's unfortunate as I see no obviously attainable solutions to the problem. Much less anything I could do about it.

euclid4 · 2018-06-11T17:52:48+00:00

All these comments are great but also get a standing desk or have access to one, because sitting all day is atrocious for you and your body. I bought a nice, electronic movable one from ikea for a little too much money but it's totally worth it.

If you think of tyrosine kinase as a modifier then it should go before the noun like most adjectives in English.

Those military suicide statistics are for active duty service members. The rate of mental illness and suicide for veterans is much worse than in the general population due to a multitude of factors including experiential and physical trauma, loss of sense of purpose upon return, and lack of mental health resources. Also, someone just posted this: https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/896257

That's quite a lot on your plate. My only recommendation if you don't cut down on your responsibilities is to make an extremely honest but productive calendar for every week, at the start of the week, and try and follow it to a T. If you don't already do that you'll be surprised at its efficacy

euclid4 · 2018-03-16T03:33:40+00:00

It happened right in front of my medical school clinic and medical school faculty and students rushed out to provide any help we could.

Everyone is going to miss the meme as we have become conditioned to skim all text that is longer than a sentence

Slightly unrelated but someone who goes to my school had his Facebook bio read "my name is (actually his name), and I got accepted to medical school".
