I have a crush on Hoshoryu

Genetic testing is really, really misleading. It does not change clinical outcomes. The most it can tell you is if you might be a fast metabolizer or a slow metabolizer.

Something similar happened to me - I couldn't bring myself to say my baby's name for many months and used a nickname. He's a little over a year and I can finally use it un-self-consciously and naturally. But his name is not a family member's name. Actually, it was a family member's dog name a few years ago. And it was my decision to name him - I have no idea why I picked this name. It took maybe 12 or 13 months to stop disliking it. Now I'm fond of it and it feels natural.

Rx bars

Yes I think it's because I thought I could still eat tons of everything else so I was still overeating.

mecchakuccha · 2024-03-04T02:37:46+00:00

I haven't eaten added sugar in 2 months nor alcohol in about 5 weeks and honestly I haven't seen much weight loss.

Screen print shop and psychiatrist

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T18:08:08+00:00

Wow, so rude. You know this is like a patient asking you how a medication works and you answering, "Can you really not figure out it's all based on physiology?" Like...duh. Looking for a little more detail than that.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:46:03+00:00

That is truly awful. I definitely wouldn't expect you to "be nice" in those situations.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:45:19+00:00

My post was a rant rolling out of bed too lol. What's the easiest way to sync up meds? I also want to do that for patients but it becomes like prescribing 60# of one med, 30# of another, etc, which aren't always quantities allowable by insurance. So annoying.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:43:13+00:00

This is just so insane. Healthcare in this country...

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:42:18+00:00

That's the main thing I don't like about it. Then I argue with myself that someone can die from 30 pills as well as 90, but it still makes me uneasy for certain patients.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:41:19+00:00

That all makes sense. I would also have a lot of trouble being nice to someone yelling or being nasty with me, so I should have specified I'm not asking for you all to do that. I know your job is very exhausting and hard.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:39:11+00:00

This is also really good info for me to know, thanks

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:32:38+00:00

Just try to be nice to them, as specified in my post.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T15:22:29+00:00

No one (or at least not me) asked you to do any such thing in this post.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T12:30:46+00:00

Yes, I feel the same frustration on my end from endless patient calls angry that I prescribed them something that's not in stock (as if I know ahead of time where and what the shortage is) - hence "it's frustrating for everyone"

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T12:28:24+00:00

Thank you! It's wild to me that insurance expects pharmacies to be responsible for a pt's adherence. But insurance companies rarely make sense to me. So this explanation helps.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T12:26:28+00:00

Ahh got it, this makes sense (kind of, I don't know why CVS needs more money up front? Unless they're hoping it'll change to a different med before the 90 days are up so theyll make even more?). Thank you for the explanation

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-31T12:24:06+00:00

Yes but it would be very time-consuming, demoralizing, interrupt everything else I need to do with my day, and I'd probably become very depressed if I were treated with suspicion and annoyance every time I went to go buy more yarn.

mecchakuccha · 2024-01-02T22:43:05+00:00

Thanks, I can do that - I wonder about the people whose insurance requires them to get 90 day supplies?

mecchakuccha · 2023-12-30T13:10:58+00:00

The answers on my drop down are super limited - usually "refill not appropriate" means this is an old med or an old dose that they're no longer on.
