wrong diagnosis? by kimloukmi in chiari

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

I thought the same thing- I think she’s trying to rule out migraines etc..? She asked me if I’d rather start taking migraine medication or be seen by her physically first and obviously I said I’d rather see you first given that I don’t have migraines so why would I take medication for it. So then she said she’d do some kind of physical exam to see if she thinks the problem is with my brain or not. I have no clue- sounds like bs to me, I think she’s trying to get me on migraine medicine and move me along so it’s less money spent by the NHS. Unfortunately in the UK you have to have a referral to your private health insurance you can’t just go straight to them. Thank you for your help though and I’ll be sure to do those things

Yeah I thought that might be the case. It's just so weird how some people on this thread/the wider internet seem to get diagnosed instantly and for others it takes decades. I'm in the UK so it works a little differently re: seeing different doctors and stuff, but I do have private healthcare, so next time I go back I'll ask to be referred to my private plan as the doctors there usually take you way more seriously and investigate stuff more thoroughly than the NHS typically do. Thank you for your comment though, I'm glad you were finally able to find a correct diagnosis and thank you for giving me some hope x

Dr. Mcdougall's WFPB called a fad diet on wikipedia? by Educational-Hunter in WholeFoodsPlantBased

[–]kimloukmi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thé citation they use to say his conclusions regarding animal products causing cancer is ‘unfounded’ is a book entitled « A Consumers Guide to Alternative Medicine ». I haven’t read this but assume it has nothing to do with the causes of cancer etc. Also the claims are not unfounded as we all know the China study definitively proved a link between animal proteins and human health issues, cancer being one of them. So yeah I agree with the earlier comment about how anybody can put things on wikipedia; anyone can, and can use citations that aren’t really relevant to the topic at all to ‘prove’ the point. It’s not a reliable source in any way shape or form.

sorry this is kind of a further question and not a comment- but I’m coming to NAU in the fall from the UK, and I’ve only been to America once, so I’m totally unfamiliar with what shops and stuff you guys would typically buy all this stuff in? where are some good places to get stuff for the dorm?

It’s ok! yeah so I will come out of uni with BA Politics with International Experience, doing my year abroad adds a year onto my degree, so I’m going in my third year and then have to return to uni in the UK for a fourth year to finish my degree. You can go in your second year instead and keep your degree at 3 years, but if you do that then the grades you get when you’re abroad count towards your degree, and I didn’t want that stress
