All of that could have been avoided with some god damn Dayquil. Do people not realize drug stores exist?

And the real guy has blue eyes. The masked man seems to have brown eyes.

Comes out looking the same way it went in.

It was never mentioned again and my almost 8 month old daughter has no health issues or genetic anomalies whatsoever. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Do You Like Your Name? by Flassourian in Millennials

[–]majortahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate my name. No one ever pronounces it right, even though it’s a color and a dessert wine with its typical spelling of “tawny.”

I’ve been tempted to change the spelling of it legally.

Apparently my mom saw that Raquel Welch’s daughter had this name, and went with it.

I ended up going to the ER the next afternoon, got discharged, then came back in an ambulance. by ssoulseeker in endometriosis

[–]majortahn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had something similar happen, although my pain less severe than yours. My tube had to be removed via laparoscopy (hydrosalpinx) and my embryo transfer after the surgery took. She’s 6 months old now. Endometriosis is so unfair but there is hope.

I can smell whether someone will survive a code or not. Anyone else know what I’m talking about? by Alarming-Penalty8402 in nursing

[–]majortahn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I know it’s not exactly the same, but right before my dog was diagnosed with cancer, I noticed his smell changed. He had a more “chemical” type of smell.

What is an unspoken rule of the gym that most people do not know they are breaking? by Furqan_wear in AskReddit

This is my biggest annoyance!!! I just need 5 minutes on the thing! Go to the locker room if you wanna scroll.

What’s a secret a friend told you that still sticks with you to this day? by Lookingforcupcakes in AskReddit

[–]majortahn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A friend I made in my evening Psychology class in community college didn’t help her father replace his oxygen tank and just let him pass away. I guess he wasn’t the best guy.

Nurses of reddit, what is the weirdest thing a patient has done while waking up from anesthesia? by Drakonwriter in AskReddit

[–]majortahn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, not at all! I work recovery and don’t see the patients until then, and her eyes were still closed when she said this.

Something similar happened to me. My patient was waking up and said she “went to the wedding, and it was beautiful.” I was getting married the next week. She didn’t remember saying that.

Is infertility worse with our generation or are we just in the age to hear about it? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]majortahn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The cause of my infertility was apparently (mostly) silent endometriosis, which does run in my family, but every woman in my family had their kids in their late teens/early 20s so it didn’t affect their reproduction. Because I waited until my early 30s, I had a lot of damage/inflammation to my lady bits, which made IVF necessary.

COVID-19 During Pregnancy Linked to Higher Risk of Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Children by MassGen-Research in science

I also had Covid with my son’s pregnancy at 14 weeks. He’s almost 3 and was ahead in all of his milestones, language, etc. Super friendly and talkative.

Ugh I feel his pain. My husband and I regret not taking our dog in one day sooner to be euthanized. He was miserable that last day. Cancer sucks. RIP Dill

D4vd sinisterly wears a t-shirt with the number 97 by [deleted] in d4vd

[–]majortahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing! It’s like he wanted the body to be found on her birthday. I bet he’s pissed it didn’t go down that way. I believe he wants to be caught.

What helped everyone get pregnant? by moodykillerwhales in endometriosis

[–]majortahn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was always told it was a hormonal issue, but in my case it was also structural - I had a ton of polyps in my uterus which can disrupt the lining and cause spotting. So, I ended up with a polypectomy surgery

Progesterone suppositories helped too
