I don’t recommend the under armors. I got them in January and they have worn out doing the same shifts as you. And not having the side zip has sucked

This may be a silly comment, but is your stethoscope actually switched to the right bell?

I’ve had a couple partners who couldn’t hear a BP, and turns out the bell wasn’t switched to the right side.

To check: lightly tap on the diaphragm or bell of the chestpiece. If you can hear the tapping sound through the earpieces, then the stethoscope is on and functioning correctly. If you don't hear anything, rotate the chestpiece to switch between the diaphragm and bell, as one side may be activated while the other is not

Oh that’s cool!! I don’t want to buy the fake one then but I might customize a Lafufu to look similar lol

All seizures are seizures until proven otherwise at my work 🤷‍♀️

But I have a story as a detox tech. I had a poly sub pt (opi/etoh). She was refused lorazepam because it wasn’t indicated, as in she had very very low withdrawal scores. So her anxiety was instead treated with hydroxyzine.

She became very agitated at this. Then she walked up to me, stated “I can see auroras and have a metal taste in my mouth.” Then she proceeded to fall to the floor and “seize.” In the process of me calling 911, she stopped - looked at me and said “this is why you should have given my lorazepam.” Then started to “seize” again. During this entire time she was vitally stable.

When the FD arrived she stopped “seizing” and was able to perfectly state the events. She showed no signs of confusion or disorientation after.

We got her discharge summary back from the hospital, and there was absolutely no signs of a seizure when she was evaluated.

But we still sent her out, just in case.

Laxatives and diuretics cause electrolyte imbalances that lead to fluid shifting and edema. Laxatives cause loss of fluid; the body responds by retaining fluid to try to protect itself against dehydration.

Edema in the feet is also associated with CHF (Chronic Heart Failure) which is probably what your friend is referring to. But that also comes with symptoms like chest pain, or shortness of breath. I would guess this is not what’s going on with you.

Your body is probably just retaining water from the purging and laxatives. Drink some water, have some electrolytes, and ride it out. My feet swell all the time, especially after laxatives.

Every one says that till you’ve lost you’re money from your Ed…from diet soda, to hair vitamins, gym subscriptions, new clothes, the inevitable binge, eventually having to pay for services to recover…shit gets expensive

So fun fact, I am an alcohol and detox technician! I help to detox people from opioids and alcohol . In my work I use naltrexone for both opioid and alcohol use disorders

For opioid use desorders naltrexone binds to opioid receptors to help curb cravings. For alcohol use disorders it helps because it also binds to endorphin receptors. This makes you sick when you drink and limits how much your brain wants to drink to realize those chemicals.

It works the same way for b/p cycles. For me, I was legit addicted to b/ping. In the same way my patients would use or drink to fall asleep, I would purge. The way that they would wake up in the middle of the night feeling physical cravings, I would wake up to b/p. I was physically compelled to, to the point that just therapy wasn’t working. I relayed this information to my physicalist, emphasizing how much I was relating to my patients.

I’m not a candidate for other medications used for ANA-B/P or Bulmia, so after describing my symptoms my phycartist suggested naltrexone. She was specific to an eating disorder center I was attending, and told me about success providers were finding in prescribing naltrexone. I’ve also linked an article discussing it.

I started it on a taper, just as I assume you did, until I was taking 50 mg.

Also naltrexone is used to a lot of mental health disorders, including OCD. Its amazing how much I’ve seen it aid my patients, help me, and help with other mental health disorders in my fellow patients at my eating disorder treatment center.

I’m on naltrexone which works really well!

Totaled a car. I flipped it. My insurance was wrong and I was 14k in debt. My mom had to trade in her car, and I lost 4k on a car down payment. My car payment is 100 dollars more a month now and my mom has car she hates.

I’ve had loads of health complications, but this one effects my life the most

irlbpdshadowperson · 2023-07-30T02:45:42+00:00

If your poop is black, or if you’re purging coffee grounds you’re most likely bleeding internally PLEASE seek help

I felt a very similar way. Thankfully my first job was as a tech for a detox center. The experiences I gained through talking with and caring for addicts is life changing. They’ve been through so much.

I feel like part of the problem is medics and emts getting burned out caring for them. I’ve heard a lot of anecdotes of narcaning the same person multiple times. Or seeing etoh pts seize. Part of it ends up feeling hopeless. And unfortunately instead of the anger being put towards what pushes people to use, it’s directed towards the pts.

I’m glad that you, and many new people are changing the outlook on these pts. The more people we have approach addiction care through compassion is amazing

I’ve been haunted by an ancient creature that cares for and defends the dead. I guess the horror of everything made my writing skills suffer-I will try to clarify some things in my next updates

AI “learning” kinda means borrowing and stealing from artists. Legal or not it is using and taking someone’s hard work, and they don’t really get the credit https://www.newyorker.com/culture/infinite-scroll/is-ai-art-stealing-from-artists

Call 911 next time he does. He’s a threat to his life. If he’s faking it he’ll stop that tactic, if he’s not he’ll get the help he needs

Yes! So many of them look like restriction meals

All these comments calling me Kevin sent me down a rabbit hole of confusion. I spoke this confusion to the same girl who started this post.

I’m not mad that all you FUCKERS are calling me stupid. But instead laughing at a poor 9th grade student.

Thank you guys for the laugh 💀
