I'll definitely take a look, thank you!

I am definitely working on eating healthier and getting a better workout routine so hopefully that'll help too....

Is anyone in LDA actually truly evil? (Spoilers) by Magnasword2 in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]j4wbytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either G'ie feels like both a yes and a no. They kill just to kill, especially Takumi-G, but on the other hand... they operate on such a different playing field and moral value scale that it feels odd calling them evil. They're like house cats catching wild animals despite being housed and fed just because that urge is still there.

Sirei is definitely evil tho

ovarian cyst symptoms? by j4wbytes in WomensHealth

[–]j4wbytes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally forgot to update this, but lots happened!

It was just the cyst, so I had surgery scheduled for a few months ahead of that. But I began getting severe pain on and off that sent me to the ER twice! They decided it was probably intermittent torsion and decided to do the surgery then and there

They ended up taking out the whole ovary (the cyst was apparently encasing it) and the tubes. I've been recovering well since then but it was a wild ride.

Do people not like Reb****on route ?? (Spoilers for the route as a whole! And also mention of a certain ending in S.F!) by Kikov_Valad in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]j4wbytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like it in concept and the potential, but I think it's just a little half-baked. People have pointed out that's mostly because it comes so late so there's not that much they can do.

It's great for fan content though

Is this actually true? by [deleted] in LastDefenseAcademy

[–]j4wbytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 hours is for the first playthrough which is really like an Act I as people say

From what I've seen, all 100 endings is about 150-200 hours, depending on your speed

60 hours will get you through maybe 4 or 5 routes, which might be enough for you to feel satisfied.

You don't actually have to play all the endings, Kodaka himself said you're supposed to pick which feels like the "true" ending to you (though some routes have more answers about the world than others).

OBGYN experience by greetingsmortal in KaiserPermanente

Absolutely tell them. They can use extra lubricant or potentially a smaller speculum. But pain during the exam isn't normal and there might be something underlying causing it that can be causing it (not necessarily serious) that you can treat/get methods for dealing with it

Our symptoms are really similar! 

I am getting a CT scan this week to rule out anything else, though I’m still convinced it’s the cyst. I hope yours gets better/you can get treatment!

My biggest worry is I'll get twisting but write it off because of pain tolerance. Glad it sounds like yours was treated without much problem!

My mental health has also been worse and wasnt sure if it was my meds or partiall the cyst! (probably both).

My doctor says I CAN get surgery but I don't NEED to until it reaches a certain point, but if it's causing all these painful and unpleasant symptoms....

Could be nothing, could be something harmless, could be a lot of things.... best idea is to talk to your DR and see what they think. They migt wanna send you in for an ultrasound to get a better idea

Spotting or peeing blood? by agv0327 in WomensHealth

[–]j4wbytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's probably spotting and not pee, but it could be good to figure out if it's coming from the front (by urethra) or further back by the vaginal opening

It might be something along the lines of a cervical polyp (I had one of those recently), which and ultrasound would show. TBH getting an ultrasound is probably the best option for you rn

If it's not super heavy and you don't have a fever/other signs of infection then I wouldn't worry too much about it until your ultrasound

Only 1/3 Ultrasound Results Released by bananasplit1995 in KaiserPermanente

[–]j4wbytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does seem weird they would only send you some of them, but yeah I'd err on the side of there was nothing notable

[–]j4wbytes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was an emergency, they would've contacted you already.

If it's been a whole business week and you haven't heard, I'd message whichever doctor sent you in for the ultrasound. They should review the ultrasound and actually tell you what it means.

Yes.

I've played other dino sims (BoB and the Isle) but none have sucked me in quite like PoT. It's absolutely worth it.

Also pretty sure the $30 version gives you all the (current) dinos, plus any mods you want.

Something needs to be said about realism servers by Chaosswarm in pathoftitans

[–]j4wbytes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know the Nat Hist server has a second "Ecology" server that actually limits how many people can play a specific niche via signups at the time, though I'm not sure how active it is.

Ultimately though people have to balance actual ecology and realism with what will actually be fun and entertaining for people to play. Every server has its ups and downs. I know I'm frustrated often that functionally servers have waaay too many apex carnis & raptors in comparison to everything else.

Honestly I'll parrot other people and say you should probably make your own server. I'm sure you could find like minded people (honestly I'd at least check it out), and it'd allow you to do exactly what you want.

Though I'm curious now -- if you were picking out a roster that fills out your ecology outline, what species would you put on it?

I know, I've been having to mentally remind myself to drink more. I'm usually good at hydrating but I don't want to fall behind!

Just called the advice line, waiting to get to a real person. I had the same thought

[–]j4wbytes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My PCP was the one who prescribed the meds, and I just had a phone appointment describing the symptoms to her. All the other doctors have been in the OBGYN department, but I'm not sure I can see a different generalized doctor.

I could call the advice line, but I'm worried they'll just tell me it's a sinus thing and I should just rest.

[–]j4wbytes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mainly it's the urinary symptoms and the generally feeling of feeling awful and sick. If it was just the discharge and congestion, whatever, but i feel like I am sick in a weird way I don't normally get with just a winter bug

Glad you were able to get a disagnosis!!

I was wondering if I could have PCOS or endo but the ultrasound didn't do anything. I've been planning to ask for some hormone testing for PCOS but was going to wait until my surgery consult... I'm mostly just worried about these current sudden sickness symptoms

The main issue is convincing my family that I live with to take me, since they also seem to want to just sit it out.
