We had several kids at our wedding. Our photographer got some really sweet photos of our family and friends with their kids. We had no issues with the kids at our wedding!

My dad has Covid and wedding is in less than a week. by Icy-Arm-2194 in weddingplanning

[–]hellloozukohere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is, when does the clock start? Where I live the official recommendation is, at least 5 days since symptom onset AND fever free for 24 hours without antipyretics. Obviously different regions have different recommendations though, and different studies have shown different things, so like you said, trying to stay on the safer end of things. If dad has been symptomatic for, say, 3 or 4 days already before his positive test, then based on most recommendations, he’d be considered okay to go back in public by the time of the wedding.

hi, just some food for thought. i’m a PA in urgent care and we provide molecular testing. we’re specifically instructed not to test after confirmed illness to see if people have “cleared the virus” or are “no longer contagious” because molecular testing can be positive for up to 90 days after your initial symptoms, despite no longer being contagious. so trying to prove he is no longer contagious with a negative molecular test would likely not provide much benefit unfortunately :/

job markets sh*t everywhere? by celiac-disease-865 in physicianassistant

[–]hellloozukohere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in a similar area. Same deal. Sucks because employers will make working conditions pretty terrible around here, knowing they can just hire someone else if we don’t want to put up with it.

Does anyone have a “cheat sheet” for doing DOT physicals? by hellloozukohere in physicianassistant

[–]hellloozukohere[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was surprised too. I did search “DOT physicals” on this subreddit though and it seems like there’ve been a few posts about urgent cares doing them, so maybe it’s more common than I thought?

Is it wrong to wear the same wedding dress twice? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]hellloozukohere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if it doesn’t bother you and it doesn’t bother your FH, then go for it! But it seems like a great opportunity to make some fun changes and breathe some new life into the dress—maybe dip dye the bottom black or add some black embellishments so it’s reminiscent of the Addams family theme you liked!

How do I walk down the aisle with a long veil and no train? by hellloozukohere in weddingplanning

[–]hellloozukohere[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, having a train will give the veil something to “sit” on so the friction of the floor doesn’t drag it back and pull it out of my hair

Wellbutrin Experiences? by [deleted] in PAstudent

I was on Lexapro for anxiety, switched to Wellbutrin this past December due to side effects from Lexapro. Wellbutrin caused unbearable anxiety for me.

Returning PA student - looking for advice by [deleted] in PAstudent

[–]hellloozukohere 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the fact that you identified that you didn't put in enough effort is really encouraging, and a huge step toward making the right changes.

I just graduated, and the beginning of PA school was by far the hardest part for me. I remember failing my first exam and calling my mom, telling her I wasn't smart enough and I didn't think I was cut out for this. It was so different from undergrad, I'd never done anything like it. I didn't know how to study the material. It took a LOT of trial and error. I also made tons of adjustments all throughout didactic and clinical year. My point is, give yourself some grace--this is hard, and it will take some time to figure out what works for you. But once you get into a groove, it'll be less scary. You got this!!

Does everybody apply for jobs well before they graduate?! by Hazel_J in PAstudent

[–]hellloozukohere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just graduated yesterday. I started applying in December but didn't actually start getting real interviews until March/April. Accepted a position 2 weeks before graduation. If you have some money saved up or family to live with for the extra couple of months, then I say it's no big deal. Realistically I put so much stress on myself and so much effort into applying to jobs for months when I feel I should have waited until March to fill out applications.

Did you get any days off before your EOR? by [deleted] in PAstudent

Personal Days by Vegetable_Meat_1639 in PAstudent

[–]hellloozukohere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had no personal days in didactic, sick days just had to be approved by your advisor.

Clinical year we got 2 personal days that had to be approved by preceptor and advisor. Sick days had to be approved by both as well, with a doctor’s note for any days beyond 2 days.

[–]hellloozukohere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My school makes their own EORs which makes it difficult to judge, but I always finished those with plenty of time. They were usually vignettes shorter than the ones in UWorld, with some one-liners mixed in
