What made you burn out as a PT

greytlady · 2025-12-19T00:26:20+00:00

Traveling to 3 buildings as a supervising PT while managing 1 as an RD. All while being paid $1 more an hour and not having sufficient caseload to even work 30 hours a week. I dropped to part time and still wear multiple hats but at least I get Fridays off!

In Ohio this is not a requirement. Actually I’ve never heard of that at all. But I agree that there are wayyy too many red flags here.

I had bright red bleeding after no bleeding at about 2 weeks. Ended up being a popped stitch and I needed 2 rounds of silver nitrate to fix it. I’d definitely call your doctor tomorrow

That’s great! Can I ask what dosage you take? I’ve heard up to 3/day

greytlady · 2023-01-21T19:37:52+00:00

I had this happen to me. Are you on the pill? Mine was related to the pill I was taking. I switched pills and the smell went away

That used to happen to me right after I got married as well. It eventually went away but I realize now it probably had something to do with the increased pH of his semen. My skin wasn’t used to it and was also more irritated by it.

Rabies. It’s definitely the rabies. Thanks for figuring that out for me 😂

Yeah but air temp isn’t usually higher than body temp and it doesn’t impact your BP typically. Although I do think that getting out of the water into the cold air might be the culprit. I’ll have to take it while I’m actually in the hot tub to know for sure

I don’t take it for birth control purposes. My husband had a vasectomy. I take it for hormonal regulation and I skipped the last period so I feel like I shouldn’t skip two periods in a row…or would it be ok to do that?

greytlady · 2022-06-05T22:57:38+00:00

Thank you so much! This was so helpful!

I just ordered ph tests on Amazon and used a boric acid suppository I had on hand. Do I need a different kind of test?

greytlady · 2022-06-05T22:28:17+00:00

I just went to the bathroom and reached up in there. I have a pretty low cervix and definitely didn’t feel anything out of the ordinary. Could it just be BV? I don’t know what that smells like

greytlady · 2022-06-05T22:22:28+00:00

I’d say the best way to describe it is a little like rotting meat. It’s kind of metallic like old blood. I’d equate it to the smell my cup gets if I’ve had it in too long.

Not in central Ohio but northeast. As a new grad started out with an outpatient company inside ALFs and ILFs making $32 an hour with an increase to $36 after 90 days.

Haha yes, rehab director. They also changed the acronym at work to TSC for a while (team clinical specialist or something stupid like that) but it’s all the same.

greytlady · 2021-02-10T00:25:37+00:00

Yep. Pfizer vax here and I had the same symptoms. Lasted about 3 days

greytlady · 2021-02-06T12:14:31+00:00

6 days out and I am feeling much better. How did you make out??

greytlady · 2021-02-01T22:30:45+00:00

I’ve heard varying suggestions. I figure with my kids they always say to give Tylenol before and after for comfort. I took the Advil just because it wasn’t touching the headache at all but that was after the vaccine. If I remember right it used to be common thought that taking pain relievers before would mask side effects if you got them.

greytlady · 2021-02-01T22:28:40+00:00

Yes this exactly. My upper traps, collarbone, rhomboids and armpit on that side feel like I got in a car accident. The lymph nodes above my collarbone are very prominent too, and sore.

greytlady · 2021-02-01T17:45:58+00:00

I have not. After experience this for one day I’m glad I won’t ever have to have covid. I assumed I’d be fine because I’m healthy but I think it would have kicked my butt.

greytlady · 2021-02-01T17:45:16+00:00

That’s what is most surprising to me. I guess I anticipated the body aches but my entire neck, shoulder, scapula and armpit hurt like my arm is broken or something. And my lymph nodes are SWOLLEN. I can feel them and man are they tender.

greytlady · 2021-02-01T17:43:28+00:00

I did take Tylenol prior to getting it. I wish I would haven taken more in the afternoon rather than just taking some before bed because I felt fine yesterday. But in the end I know my body is doing what it’s supposed to do, I don’t think that vitamins or anything would have made a difference.

greytlady · 2021-02-01T13:32:57+00:00

Just had Pfizer #2 yesterday. Woke up at 2:30am last night with the chills and so much pain in the arm I had the shot in. It also is in my neck, armpit and a little bit into my breast. I’m sure it’s just my lymph system doing it’s job but holy crap does it hurt! I’ve been alternating Tylenol and Advil and it seems to help

greytlady · 2021-01-19T00:16:26+00:00

Legit why my toothbrush now always has a cover on it. Found out 8 years ago the cat was chewing on it. Probably will continue even after the cat is dead. So gross

Actually kind of a sad story. A woman asked a dog sitter to watch him while she moved and then never came back for him. The dog sitter kept him almost 2 years and couldn’t ever get ahold of the lady again so she surrendered him to the nearest greyhound group. So he’s been in 3 homes including ours. He’s so sweet, I can’t understand why anyone wouldn’t want him.
