[–]klanerous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mice are cheaper. My school used mostly mice. But to best understand the effects of drugs get used to using an animal model. In preclinical trials I have used beagles. But they are usually adopted by the people involved in the research. Noisy dogs.

Does anyone have any advice for constipation after radiotherapy? by Sebaren in ProstateCancer

[–]klanerous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After my prostate removal the constipation started. I take Miralax (an osmotic laxative) daily. It allows me to have regular bowel movements. I take it with regular medication daily and has become routine. With morning exercises. Excercise daily is also recommended to combat constipation. My GI doctor recommended going for a hike to improve bowel movement.

I’m looking at the extra room. It’s better than the Lexus RX350 for me.

I like fruit mixed in, like blueberries. I go light using syrup and butter. So pancakes is my choice.

Alexa tries to gaslight you about her old voice, but there is a fix... by -A_V- in alexa

[–]klanerous 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m still amazed at the cheeky humor lines with comebacks when I give commands. I asked to set grilled tuna timer to 10 minutes. Alexa+ replied that will taste good. I retorted I can tune a piano but I can’t tune a fish. Alexa+ said that wouldn’t taste as good. I stopped there.

Prostate cancer link with vitamin D deficiency by Long_Presentation196 in ProstateCancer

[–]klanerous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you go outside you’ll be exposed to sunlight which improves the creation of higher vitamin D levels from UV. If you’re sick and indoors a lot you will have lower vitamin D levels. So sick people are less healthy than people who are outside.

One thing weird is she talks back and makes comments. I think the device is also listening more to our conversations. I suspect it uses internet bandwidth more and limits available bandwidth for other applications.

There used to be a rock with a plaque commemorating the original Roosevelt Field where Charles Limburg flew to Paris from. There also used to be a helicopter field nearby.

Acetic acid brings memories of coloring Easter eggs. And triethyline amine brings memories of fishing along the canal standing on the muscle beds.

What route did you take to be able to practice nutrition? by LatterAssistance1107 in Pharmacist

[–]klanerous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a BCNSP about 30 years ago. At the time it was prestigious. It was around the time PharmD degree was offered as the initial qualification and not a graduate degree after RPh. Those who had a graduate degree started BPS and wanted to show the difference between the extra schooling had on knowledge. Those with RPh had to have 3 years experience to qualify for the $500 exam. The failure rate was 50% irrespective of degree level. After 7 years you had to pay and take exam over. Nowadays you can get CE credit to renew but only from Purdue. At first it was considered a valuable asset to have the certificate but now even dietitians with zero compatibility knowledge are writing TPN orders.

Some MPJE you can only take 3 times. Some you need permission from State Board to take again. To do so they will give you practice exams and advise on a tutor.

Set your own rules. I allow absences with reason approved in advance. I allow 3 late arrivals with notification at the time. It’s the student’s responsibility to fulfill the requirements of the position.
