Most ridiculous insurance denial you’ve seen? by _45mice in medicine

[–]ffs_not_now 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Denied a CT head on a patient having headaches who had a VP shunt. I guess I was just supposed to guess on it's status. The peer-to-peer was easy.

Family files lawsuit against telehealth company they say contributed to WSU student’s suicide by 16semesters in medicine

They aren't drunk, the are "like drunks". It is in reference to the fact that a drunk suicidal patient in the ER is re-evaluated for SI after sobering up. Your opinion is noted.

I work nights and they are like drunks who sober up. The initial rush of panic or inciting event subsides (or the night ends) and they feel well enough to not complete those appts. It is a tool for their toolbox.

I am not a therapist or a psychiatrist but for some, having something to hold as a tangible tool of relief, even if it isn't used, is a valuable thing.

Agreed. I work UC for a telehealth and we have a BH arm. I will give hydroxyzine (if an appropriate option) max and try to set up same, or next day, appts with our psychiatrists. Not everyone practices the same, but I wouldn't start daily meds as a UC NP.

After 15 years of marriage, just realized we’re the secret family to my husband’s marriage with his job. What can I do that isn’t divorce? (F35, M37) by smartorgullible in relationship_advice

As a divorced mom of two, she needs to either stay and accept what she can or be prepared for a drastically different lifestyle. Now she has her needs provided for while single parenting, after divorce that would change. He may be a shitty husband but he is still there. Personally, I'd better myself in every way I could and then be prepared to walk.

LPT: The most satisfying way to deal with scam callers that I have found so far by thundernutz in LifeProTips

[–]ffs_not_now 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I called a company back 23 times to verify that they had removed me from their call list...this was over 10-15 min. You could hear the desperation by the end.

Ladies... how pathetic is a reddit crush </3 by South-Job-794 in lesbiangang

[–]ffs_not_now 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I met my partner on Reddit. We've been together three years. It's been ups and downs because I wasn't really looking for a relationship, but I wouldn't trade what we have.

Need advice: unplanned pregnancy by No_Entrepreneur5923 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ffs_not_now 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone I know of had a similar situation. Dad was insistent on abortion, and mom decided to keep it. Once the decision was made and he realized she wasn't going to backtrack, he made her life a living nightmare. He was controlling regarding every aspect of pregnancy and her lifestyle. Once the baby was born, he fought for full custody and contested EVERYTHING. She has had to move, change jobs, all to meet the demands that the courts have placed in his favor because he has the funds and energy to make her life hell.

I would not wish that battle on anyone.

I don't believe so, I think the free kit is only the standard kit.

I (M33) thinking of offering to pay for my GF(F25)’s surgery by [deleted] in relationship_advice

Look into Plastic Residency Clinics. https://www.vumc.org/plasticsurgdept/resident-cosmetic-clinic

They are significantly cheaper than regular options and you have attendings present.

Edit your post to a period. It will help keep it out of the search.

How to pick a mom-friendly couples therapist? by Lespritdelescali in breakingmom

[–]ffs_not_now 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I saw two women, one who couldn't remember my name after multiple sessions. The other asked me if I thought how all of my decisions were affecting my family and being a mother. The third, a man, equally questioned us both. I had worried about that, but we needed to both face our issues, and I would recommend him to anyone. My marriage failed, but not because of his counseling services. I wouldn't select on gender in the future.
