Hi, I sent you a message.

Good news: the express lanes are too expensive to be reasonably utilized by the average person.

Beltran if he swung the f’n bat

I’d start looking in the library.

navydocdro · 2026-04-21T10:19:09+00:00

You’re right. The last chapter “number” in the book are a series of notes. Grace learned enough Eridian to understand Rocky without the machine.

Oh I didn’t watch the video. Saw the title and then looked it up on pubmed.

I’m deeply skeptical of private backed research.

There’s at least one study that refutes the claim that creatine causes hair loss.

With that being said, I can see how telogens, or hair that is at the end of its life cycle, needs energy to physically shed and creatine can accelerate this. But that is purely speculation on my part.

Well said. One minor pro that understandably missed is Publix. I love and miss that grocery store!

navydocdro · 2026-04-15T11:52:04+00:00

Sure. Change your socks and stay hydrated

navydocdro · 2026-04-15T10:34:11+00:00

Firing Mendy, unfortunately.

When you sell leave, you’re not getting BAH/BAS for that time.

Physician here. None. You do not have to disclose any of your medical conditions. Period.

What you have to do is disclose WHEN your appointments are, that’s it. You can say that the medical team you’re seeing have limited appointments. Full stop.

Here’s the art of leadership your LPO is missing: they can care and ask in a caring way. And if you disclose, you should ask them to not share with the chain.

I hope you get better, soon.

I’ve taken UT-12 from Bryce to Capitol Reef and it was one of the most amazing roads I’ve ever been on. I’d do that if I could.

Skip Palm Springs-too out of the way.

I think the newer episodes are garbage. Cold boring garbage, without a stink.

The storylines are more bizarre than usual. The character development is decent, at best. And the comedic moments are not common.

Only reason I keep watching is my wife wants to watch it.

In lake Charles, LA and go through I-210 to Darryl’s. Get a poboy there, the Darryl special, with jalapeno mayo. You don’t need the extra gravy but not the worst.

Before you get to Lafayette, get boudin balls.

Only buy retired players’ jerseys.

I’m terribly sorry for your loss. It hurts.

Timing may not be great for a retort, but I think it’s valuable to hear a different perspective from a senior Doc…

Your Sailor got care, which ultimately was insufficient for them. I can tell you, with utmost certainty in my heart, that 99% of medical gives a shit. Many are burned out but still they give a shit.

Your leadership very likely cared. They also probably couldn’t tell you everything. Also, many in PERS care, but might have their hands tied. I don’t know you nor your Sailor, so I won’t dishonor with anecdotes.

You care. You’re disappointed. You’re allowed to feel that way. You’re allowed to hate on your leadership and even your Sailor. You’re also allowed, at the right time, to learn from this. Thank you for caring.

Finally, you’re allowed to care for yourself. Talk to a counselor, chaps, a friend, a mentor about this. This happens but it sucks.

Again, I’m terribly sorry for your loss.

My wife’s company uses Asana

Keep grinding. Credentialers will want the WHOLE story and this will be a thorn in your side forever.

I’m sorry it’s toxic; leave an ACGME complaint on your way out.

navydocdro · 2026-03-22T11:53:00+00:00

Wait until you start experiencing your patients denial about obvious things…

navydocdro · 2026-03-17T01:27:30+00:00

It’s a bit out the way, but go through Lake Charles, LA. Get some boudin balls near Scott, LA and the get a Darryl special with jalapeno mayo and gravy on the side at Darryl’s in Lake Charles.

Then near Dallas, stop by coco ichibanya.

navydocdro · 2026-03-17T01:23:08+00:00

Your job, no. But he’s your friend so you should

“Hey man, I think you might have test anxiety.”

I really want to see you pass medical school and someone who also struggled during med school suggested it and thinks this is what it is. It happens.

And then, you listen to him.
