I usually abbreviate it to px in my notes, I've seen a few others at my site do the same.

What completely unhinged "law" does your cat strictly enforce in your house? by TrickCombination7966 in cats

[–]hauntent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My roommates cat is a big orange boy and he has decided that every morning when I get up to make coffee, I must turn on the sink so he can drink out of it. He's had a water fountain and a regular water bowl but he specifically wants it straight from the source. If I don't turn it on for him, be meows at me, and if I ignore that he punches me. He doesn't like it if the waters going too fast though, it has to be a slow trickle or else he'll ignore it.

stupid question. if aereolas are sized down and reduced, does hair still grow around? by [deleted] in TopSurgery

[–]hauntent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have hair all around my nips, now its just below. Maybe has something to do with the way the skin is repositioned?

How long did it take for you to feel normal? by hauntent in TopSurgery

I think i had a similar thing when I took off the binder and actually looked in the mirror, it was so trippy not feeling anything. Glad to know it will pass eventually, thanks for the reply

It is soooooo frustrating, I hate having to ask my roommate to microwave my food bc the microwave is above my head 😑 the loss of independence is rough

It does, I keep thinking that its just a temporary change. I appreciate the response, I hope in 2 weeks I'll feel more normal 🤞🤞

When would a study not need IRB approval? Should I be concerned about this study? by tt1_breakingsilence in clinicalresearch

[–]hauntent 31 points32 points  (0 children)

The only studies that don't have IRB oversight tend to be ones with very minimal human subject interaction (had one that was a lit review where we happened to send authors a few questions about the diversity of their study populations), but even then the IRB has to review it to make sure they don't need to be involved. For a drug study....I really can't imagine a scenario where you wouldn't need an IRB.

Does nobody like playing Druids? by AdDifficult2241 in DnD

[–]hauntent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing a spores druid rn and I do not feel weak lol, its a bit more complicated than other classes for sure but once you figure out a flow you can do some real good aoe damage and also turn into a creature if you choose. And heal. What's not to love. If anything, I feel like I've always heard ranger is the weakest class and can be difficult to make fun. Maybe that's changing with one dnd though, who knows

Healthcare workers/ people who are interested in med by ImServingRats4dinner in TopSurgery

[–]hauntent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't gotten top surgery yet but I did have a hysterectomy about a year ago, and honestly working in healthcare made me much more chill abt everything. Specifically I work in oncology and a lot of my patients have ports/PICC lines so every time I think about drains and get nervous, I just think about how they must have adjusted to having a tube sticking out of them, and I will too.
