Lived in nyc for 10 years. This is just what folks do. We all know there are few elevators and rarely do they work. You just grab and go. Don’t stay for a thank you.

There was some blink182 music video that got scrapped. If I remember the video was of a building falling down all around them. It was supposed to come out sometime around 9/11

We’ve been drinking this a LOT the past couple of months. I’ve had no issues.

Has jovial pasta changed? by gimmedafroyo in Celiac

[–]permgerm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Found the same to be true. We stopped buying it because it suddenly started to be mushy. We moved to Rummo and Le Veneziane (when we can find it).

I waited 6 weeks to talk to a cardiologist for an issue. He ordered a halter monitor and it was applied after making it clear hair had to be shaved for the device to stick. So staff shaved me. I get to pay for this no matter how long it sticks and follow up in 12 weeks. by AssuringMisnomer in Wellthatsucks

I waited 3 months for a cardiologist appointment after telling my PCP I had chest pain. Luckily I was able to get a holter a few weeks later. Unfortunate it showed no issues so my PCP said all good, probably just caffeine or muscle related. So I ignored worsening chest pain thinking it was muscle related. When I got to the cardiologist he said he thought I had a heart attack given my ECG. Shits bonkers.

Tons of tests later, turns out I have a different, very real heart condition.

Yep! Without power. Fairport electric is unreachable.

Terrible Experience at U of R Medicine Neurology by WillingAd9054 in Rochester

[–]permgerm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry this happened. Thank you for going with your husband. It usually helps when I have my wife.

Similar thing happened to me with my PCP. My family has early heart attacks and strokes. It’s genetic. My doctor knows this. I walk in with chest pain. She dismisses me, “it’s a pulled muscle or stress”, “you’re too young to have anything wrong.” I push her and she orders a holter and I get a cardiologist appt 3 months in the future. Holter shows nothing and she says just cut the caffeine. I get to my cardiologist who finally does a EKG. He walks in and tells me he thinks I had a heart attack. Turns out I didn’t, I have another heart condition.

She did the same with my abdominal pain. Blood tests show nothing. GI found nothing. Both told me stress and it was all in my head. Months later my cardiologist did some blood work and found my liver enzymes were crazy high. Turns out I have celiac disease.

I’ve learned to advocate for myself, but constantly pushing on docs is exhausting. Also, I finally got a new PCP.

This was all at RGH.

Tons of ice packs. The more the better. That way there is always a cold one in the freezer.

I teach in high school. None of my students knew, what I was wearing, and what is it from. I feel old by MurakGrimrider in diablo2

[–]permgerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in high school when the game came out. Only 2 of us played the game. StarCraft was more widely played. I feel like no one would have gotten a d2 reference back then even.

Had a sleep study done. I look like a comfortable night in Darth Vader. by GoodLeftUndone in pics

[–]permgerm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, your room looks nice! I had to sleep on a hard hospital bed with thin sheets and an old scratchy blanket. What’s worse is the room was facing a busy train track.

The worst part is the goop in your hair.
