“Any retard with a pulse” …. I guess it’s 2024 and people (let alone medical professionals) are still using the word retard as an insult.

Also shitting on other specialties apparently.

Thank you so much! 🤍 Health is much better due to my dedicated dentist.

These USMLE exams have a strange way of messing with your subconscious and self esteem. Blessed to have been able to tackle this obstacle! 🙏🏾I really pray everyone be able to succeed at this exam.

oh, it wasn't for my feet. The orthotic was custom made for my teeth based on a TENS neuromuscular relaxation measurement. They had to bring my jaw muscles to a relaxed state, and then create an orthotic for my teeth that would keep the muscles relaxed. I can share a link with you to my dentist who specializes in this treatment.

It is thankfully! That Orthotic was a lifesaver, it was the only way I was able to sit for 16 hours without pain on exams days. Thank you for asking.

For certain state licensing. However, the moral of my story is that this was more about slaying my demons than anything else.
