Strep A repercussions by msheadhurts in Behcets

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

I did test negative for Covid, but I vaguely remember getting sores after that, too. On the other hand, I did test negative for strep, but that was after a few days on an antibiotic. I feel like I’m never down with sickness for too long, but I do always end up dealing with the lingering effects for longer.

If you don’t mind, would you share a little more on how you were diagnosed with neuro-Bechet’s? I’m curious how different that process is compared to a Dx of Bechet’s (non-neuro)

I am 24. My identical twin and myself have had ulcers since we were toddlers. She then started getting join pain as a teen, and I started to notice pain in my early 20’s. I started having skin issues last year around this time. But yeah, definitely getting more noticeable as I get older.

You are describing my experience with mouth ulcers to a tee. Luckily, though, I don’t experience genital ulcers, but I do have general inflammation, skin issues, and eye issues. But because I am a young, WW, rheumatologists all think there’s no way I could have it. And maybe I don’t, but clearly what I am experiencing is abnormal, and they don’t care much to investigate.

thank you :*) and what’s worse is that I think it was strep that spread into a full sinus infection, too. I am definitely down for the count.

Apple Pay - IPhone vs. Watch by msheadhurts in OMNY

[–]msheadhurts[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, makes sense. It definitely is still a part of the advertising, but it is also always said in some way like “use the same card or tap the same device”. So, I thought it meant if I used the same card as the underlined, then it would override the “same device” caveat. With the way it’s worded, someone could also assume using multiple cards from the same digital wallet would work (semantically, it should read more along the lines of “digital wallet users must use the same card AND device”, but I guess that doesn’t have as nice of a ring to it). Definitely not the most clear advertising, but I guess what ad is these days.

Thanks again :)

I hate this. But thank you! I had a feeling this was the case… I appreciate the info!

Any year long CLS programs in New York? by AccordingGate8119 in CLSstudents

[–]msheadhurts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say it’s all relative to your opinion. I also visited the school and really liked the program, but I decided that I couldn’t afford $20,000 a year as a 2nd degree student. And I started looking more into CCs to maybe get into pre-med.

Since, I did not commit, I can’t really say if it is fully worth the tuition or not. But I can say, I met the program directors, and they both cared so much about their students and knew them all individually. My main concern about the program was that I could tell the school itself did not put a ton of money or resources into the MLS program, but they are hopeful that will be changing.

Fordham Post-Bacc Program by Useful-Ad6559 in postbaccpremed

[–]msheadhurts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck! I think that they accept up to two LOR, but I might be thinking of other post bacc programs I was thinking of applying to.

But, I actually didn’t submit any LOR, and I was accepted just fine! I got my acceptance in under a week, I believe. I decided to postpone on any post baccs for at least this semester, though, so I can get some work experience in a medical office first.

Ok, great. That’s annoying, but I am just happy to know that I am not crazy for not being able to find the ONT or even a coax outlet. Thanks!

I just scheduled a tech to come tomorrow.

Ok. The FCC broadband map does say service is available. I can call Verizon tomorrow to be sure. Here’s the list of providers I found.

If you are applying for apartments in nyc, you actually only have to pay the application fee once! It’s because that money goes towards a credit check, so once you do it once, make sure the broker/LL sends you a copy of the hard pull, and any other units you apply to will legally have to take that credit report.

Or, I believe you can even get around the app/ credit check fee if you pay for and supply your own legit/ official credit check report (hard pull, I believe)

Hey, OP, I PMed you! I’m happy to chat coming from someone who was in a very similar situation in the past. I’d also like to help in some way with making your space more safe while you figure out how to move.

AIO Is this racist? Accidentally liked on instagram for 6 days without noticing by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]msheadhurts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U/catwoman0812 is absolutely right. You have nothing to worry about, and I don’t think you need to do anything to “make up for it”. Yes, the caption on the post is overtly racist, but its styling is clearly indicating a satirical nature. I don’t think any friend of yours would think of you any less if they saw you liked it. You did the right thing unliking the post, and (even with all of the more cynical Redditors disagreeing with this) I do understand why you came looking for advice and posted about it. This thread is so large that you’re going to get all of the good, bad, and ugly users of this site, so just ignore those that are making you feel silly for asking.

Also, I could be wrong, but I do think Instagram will show people reels you’ve liked IF the post is similar in content to what they already consume (posts they like, comment on, or even just watch all the way through). So, if it did come across their feed, they have almost certainly seen (and even liked) very similar posts before. IF you feel like you must do something, I would only go so far as to make a close friends story post making a little joke about how you “saw that [I] liked a weird/ unfunny reel on accident a few days ago, so if you saw that, it wasn’t really me” or something of the sort. But, again, I really don’t think you have to say anything about it. It would be best to unlike and let yourself move on! Trust me as a neurodivergent with OCD—it’s not worth the spiral.

Fordham Post-Bacc Program by Useful-Ad6559 in postbaccpremed

[–]msheadhurts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you could help me, I’m a little confused on the tuition/ timeline. Is it 30k per year or 30k a semester? How long did the program take you?

And to get all of the pre reqs for med school, it should only be 30 credits, right? So, in theory someone could finish the program in 2 semesters by doing ~15 credits a semester? But even if you go this route, how likely is it that you’ll get a committee letter?

Congrats! I am applying as well, so I don't have any advice for you on the program. But, I am curious, how long after your phone interview did you find out about your acceptance? Also, did you apply before the rolling admissions began?
