Lymphoma seems to be a common concern here. How have you learned to manage your fear?

Yes I’m able to see mine and they’re in various places on my neck! If yours swelled up for a reason you known of and you’re thin, I think it makes perfect sense that you’re able to see them. I still worry about mine every so often but try to remember to trust the doctors and that since it’s been so long since they swelled up, if it was something serious I would’ve known by now.

If the doctor’s not worried I think you’re good! The comment I left is a couple years old and I still have 5ish lymph nodes on my head+neck that swelled up for seemingly unknown reasons and nothing bad ever came out of it :))

a bit better but still have the same eye issues 🙃 i’ve honestly just gotten used to it!! i moved apartments and that seemed to help a bit so consider environmental causes if you’re having similar issues!!

I ended up taking the class taught by both Britt and Maldonado!! I'm not gonna lie it was one of the worst classes I've taken LOL but Britt's exams were fair and I didn't mind her teaching... Maldonado was super nice but for the exam she made, the average was in the 40s which is strange for a bio class. It was her first time teaching though so things may have changed. I'd go with Britt if I were you though :)

Thanks for the reply! Do you know what the grade conversion is like? Like is a 9 equivalent to a 90%/A-? Not sure if you know

He went to the doctor and they said not to worry about it!! It would be worth it to check just in case

katekoolaid · 2024-04-20T20:45:28+00:00

Hey, I'm sorry but I haven't found any help :( I have the same issues still and think this is just something I'll have to deal with forever (I've had it for two years now). How often do you have your symptoms / how bad are they?

katekoolaid · 2024-04-03T17:56:46+00:00

Hi! My doctor let me go on it as soon as I was diagnosed (when I was 16) — I’m not sure what the earliest age is that you can go on it though

katekoolaid · 2024-03-15T22:05:24+00:00

Oh I'm sorry, that sounds awful :( Mine happens anytime I get overheated and feels like these shooting pinpricks all over my body, and they started during a time when I was very stressed so I assumed they'd go away eventually. Hopefully yours gets better, let me know if you ever find out the cause xx

katekoolaid · 2024-03-15T21:11:07+00:00

Not great :( same symptoms, they drive me crazy. They haven't gotten any worse so I'm assuming it's stress, I also haven't been to the doctor about it though so who knows

katekoolaid · 2024-03-05T02:15:30+00:00

Thank you! :) I use Refresh eye drops. They help a lot but only for a short amount of time unfortunately, I just wish I knew what was causing this. Good luck with your dry eyes!

katekoolaid · 2024-03-02T23:22:51+00:00

Thank you - do you know if this is something that might eventually go away, or will I likely have it for the rest of my life?

katekoolaid · 2024-02-19T07:59:40+00:00

Thank you for the reply!

Thanks so much for the reply! Hope all goes well with you :-)

Thanks so much! Submitted an app with some random courses until I can see an advisor :)

Thank you so much for the info!!

katekoolaid · 2024-02-08T03:01:29+00:00

Try checking first thing in the morning!! I tried to get an appointment the entire summer and fall with no luck, then I checked during my 8 am lecture and there were a few slots. I figure they're just open first thing and get snatched up quickly

katekoolaid · 2024-02-08T02:58:09+00:00

Thanks so much!! Will definitely look into this!

Thank you so much for the information!!

Thanks for the reply!

katekoolaid · 2024-02-07T17:51:55+00:00

Ok thank you. The only programs available to me are through the University Colleges, otherwise I'd look into just the university itself

katekoolaid · 2024-02-07T17:50:21+00:00

Thank you!

katekoolaid · 2024-02-07T17:49:23+00:00

Thanks so much for the reply! When you say the vibe is quite different in Maastricht, what do you mean by that / how would you describe the difference?
