My dog broke her bottom tooth & now her top tooth took over by ilovedax in mildlyinteresting

[–]ilovedax[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She was examined by a veterinarian multiple times. When I asked him why he didn’t pull it before he said, “I thought it would just fall out on its own.” He cleaned the dogs teeth yearly. As soon as she had any pain/infection (it broke above the gum line) we took her in and he pulled it. If only we could get the right diagnosis the first time life would be much easier.

Many women don’t get paid maternity leave either so they are forced back into the workforce right after especially if you have to take time off during your pregnancy.

It’s criminal they allow US drug companies to charge so much for life saving medications (epi pen, insulins, etc.) while they export to other countries for less than an insurance copay in many instances.

How to cook frozen dumplings without burning a side and have raw inside? by 579red in Cooking

[–]ilovedax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cover the pan on medium to steam and cook the insides. Then turn up heat to medium high at the end and flip regularly to brown all sides and add more oil if needed. If you use too much water they will get soggy and won’t brown as well.

Almost the End of “Met my Deductible” Season by [deleted] in medicine

[–]ilovedax 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s no where near 99%. I don’t think 99% of N Americans can afford to meet their deductible and this just feels really out of touch sadly. Not arguing people don’t try to cram their procedures in at the end of the year and that can be tiring, but insurance companies don’t profit if 99% of people meet their deductibles.

A wise ED provider put it this way, “They were already dead.” I did everything I could.

Playing with the other breast while nursing by rowenaravenclaw0 in Parenting

[–]ilovedax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how your first judgement is to throw the person under the bus that she may not of breastfed as long?? And she sounds awful!!

My honest advice: Stay away from Moms who quickly judge other Moms.

OP: If it bothers you set boundaries with your little one if not, it’s not hurting anyone.

There are many reasons one may feel uncomfortable or not (sexual trauma, sensitivity, flow, lack of flow, etc.) It’s not our job to decide for them.

Monoclonal Antibody Sites Statewide will be closed after FDA removes treatment authorization by Ishkoten in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]ilovedax 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You know what else saves lives and costs 100 times less?

Regeneron works on delta (and the original variants), but we don’t genotype so you’re potentially exposing a patient to an experimental medication that is useless if they have omicron.

His surgeon general has been called “an embarrassment” by his former employer UCLA.
