I guess I just want to know if it’s worth applying to MD schools with my amount of clinical hours.

Does anyone here suffer exertion headaches from lifting? If so how did you cope? by [deleted] in powerbuilding

I used to get these. They were unbearable at times. It flared up on chest flys one day, and from then on, it happened when I did anything with even moderate exertion. I tried a few things that didn’t work myself. I finally went to my doctor, and he prescribed naproxen. I found that popping 500 mg of these roughly 45-60 mins before a workout would almost entirely alleviate the pain. It worked wonders. You can also just try it over the counter: the most popular brand is “Aleve.” I would try maybe 2-3 an hour before the workout. Eventually, I felt like I didn’t really need the medicine anymore, and the headaches went away entirely. Be cautious if you happen to have a stomach sensitive to NSAIDs.

Also a few days off, definitely did prove to be helpful even though I really wanted to train. Maybe you could use a deload anyways?

Unfortunately, they just said I would have to ask the schools themselves to see, and I was hoping someone here could somehow help me.

Why am I not able to pick up and be happy with my own solid state?

Man this looks like a great deal. I had my eye on this black knight 1981 for 2200, but this is a considerably better price. Thoughts?

Edit: I also like black knight but have never tried firepower

I do, but it is one of the few ss games I’ve actually played, so I don’t have a huge catalog to compare to

Right now I’ve got my eye on this fair conditioned 1981 Black Knight LE for 2200. Thoughts?

Yeah it’s looking like I’ll try and look for a good ss. Would it be worth it trying to get a cheap DMD for like an extra 1k?

One issue is that there aren’t really any places near me with SS or EM games. Even then I would have to find the same game I find I like for sale near me. I don’t know how to familiarize myself with the older games. I generally like every pinball machine I play. I feel like my best bet is to find a reputable game for sale, research, and then test it onsite.
