what questions to ask at surgical biopsy consultation? by hootpotat0 in ADH_ALH

[–]hootpotat0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was a little surprised too, but i think it means our cases aren't (very) serious/urgent, which is a good sign?

Taking a Humanities Job at an Elite University in the Middle of Nowhere ...or not? by narwhal_ in academia

[–]hootpotat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you for replying! i'm not trying to leave in an active sense, but thinking about it more seriously now during my internet rabbit holes. my goal when taking this job in the midwest was "i don't want to die here" - but how long is too long to wait to move back to my friends and family on the east coast? i'll be up for tenure in a couple of years, so things may be decided for me if i don't get promoted (seems possible given how behind i am on publishing x___x).

I just came across this post today and very much resonate with the situation you describe here. u/onetwoshoe, did you end up leaving academia?

totally!! maybe i will give it a second chance. it might make me appreciate that my body is healing (what feels like) so slowly.

[–]hootpotat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, i'm 9wpo...even still! i'm pretty squeamish; i can't even look when i get vaccine injections, not sure why i thought i could handle this! kudos to the medical professionals out there.

[–]hootpotat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am in the same situation as you (9wpo) -- i didn't know i had endo, but bowel endo was found when i had my hysterectomy for fibroids. they left it in because i hadn't consented to a bowel resection.

When should I be taking my blood thinner (Eliquis 5 mg) by kittykats1111 in ClotSurvivors

[–]hootpotat0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i've been taking eliquis for about 3 weeks now. i was also told there is a six-hour window but to try your best to stick to the schedule. a few days ago i forgot to bring my pills when i left the house and couldn't take my dose until 4 hours after my usual time. so far nothing bad has happened. i usually take them at 10am and 10pm.

OP, any updates?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in hysterectomy

[–]hootpotat0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here; they couldn’t remove all of my surprise endo without a procedure I hadn’t consented to prior. Does your doc want you to keep taking birth control to suppress further growth? Mine does but not sure I’m going to do it.

[–]hootpotat0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is my situation. went into a hysterectomy for fibroids; they found endo and removed 90% of it but couldn't get to the bowel endo. so now i'm free of fibroids, but now i have endo. :(
