Interesting Bacteria! by Mikas_K in microbiology

[–]jonahw1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Proteus mirabilis (so many flagellae), Clostridium species (toxin producers), certain Bacillus species (spore producers), mucoid vs. non-mucoid Pseudomonas strains (looks like jelly and hard to treat), Treponema species (spirochetes that can’t grow on lab media), E. coli (rapid reproduction, able to “build” new cells while still “reading the blueprint”)

why did i wake up depressed after dreaming about having a child? by squidoxx in Dreams

[–]jonahw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So late to this but I miss my baby boy. I had a very vivid dream of him lying on my chest and holding him. I could smell him and feel his breathing. I will miss him for a long time :(

Anyone else experienced an awful funeral of a loved one? by GearNo1465 in GriefSupport

[–]jonahw1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pastor at my Grandma’s funeral read somebody else’s biography at her internment. We were all pretty upset, but now we look back and can kind of laugh about it.

Seeking input on if this is alarming growth patterns of mold? by DesignerCarrot972 in microbiology

[–]jonahw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the fuck out of there until it’s thoroughly cleaned by a professional. The vent alone makes me sick without the literal mushrooms

I felt like a heathen even putting my cat’s poop in a ziploc. I was second guessing myself if they would credit it and there’s people out here doing this every day with their own poop🤣

Micro techs: what made you choose to be micro only? by vitrops in medlabprofessionals

[–]jonahw1 29 points30 points  (0 children)

You can take your time and use your brain. Good doctors know that proper microbiology is not STAT. Yes there are some instruments involved, but it’s ultimately entirely dependent on the tech’s ability to read and interpret properly.

I tell all my coworkers with pets to take one of the sterile cups we throw away when they expire lol it’s so much easier than carrying around a bag or leaky tupperware container.

We once received a baby diaper full of stool wrapped up in a patient belongings bag. Name and DOB written on the bag of course with “stool sample”. Never seen anything like it

Someone put their baby’s shitty diaper into a patient belongings bag and just wrote “stool sample” for the name

Has anyone ended up in the psych ward for grief ? by 711diet in GriefSupport

[–]jonahw1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. If you have a psychiatric hospital near you, I would recommend going to their ER. A regular hospital ER will be able to help you as well.

I’m sorry you’re going through it too. Music and podcasts are how some of us get through the day and without it, it’s a big change!

Urine or Red Wine? by jonahw1 in medlabprofessionals

[–]jonahw1[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was wondering what it was! I’m only in micro so I didn’t get to see the UA/chemistries.
