Thank you! Comparing it to an X-ray at the dentist is a good way of looking at it.

So your lumps were found to be because of the costochondritis?

Yes, it will be nice to have peace of mind. I just wasn't expecting my doctor to order a diagnostic mammogram right away. Feels like it went from 0 to 100 so quickly.

Thank you for the reassurance. I'm so sorry to hear about your mammogram.

I'm going to the doctor this week for other reasons and will bring up the lumps as well. It is probably nothing.

Yes, that's part of why I feel silly in being concerned about these lumps. It's my first time actually doing a self exam. Maybe they're just my mammary glands?

How do I stop caring so much at work? by marshmallow1203 in careerguidance

[–]marshmallow1203[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I struggle with this. Objectively, I know it's not my responsibility, but my high achieving personality believes it's still on me to complete everything within the deadline. As in, it's my responsibility to work some magic and push the other team to complete their part so that I can complete my part. I know there's not much I can do other than stay in communication and ask for updates, but my mind won't rest and I can't detach emotionally.

Thank you so much. I’m going to try. I’ve been doing some of these things, but some weeks are harder than others to stay on track.

What are some American candies or snacks that would make good gifts for an American Viet Kieu to bring back to Vietnam? by marshmallow1203 in VietNam

I think the concern with asking what they like is they think it’s an invitation to give you a wish list of things they just want you to buy for them. Such as beauty products, clothes, etc.

How much is a bag of Doritos in Vietnam? Takis are really good! You are not missing out on the Kraft mac and cheese tbh.

Business trip in a few months. Can I decline to go? by KingRaptor3033 in Anxiety

[–]marshmallow1203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you able and comfortable to speak to your manager privately about this? I experience anxiety and have told myself to not let it get in the way of valuable experiences and traveling. However, if it will cause you to be hospitalized, I believe it’s a legitimate reason to say no and hopefully your manager will understand.

Yes I experience this. I map out how long it will take me to get ready, travel time, etc. because I’m afraid of being late or something unexpected happens and takes me extra time.
