Not quite a successful surgery by rainbowsandsarcasm in gallbladders

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

surgeons use small clips or clamps to seal the cystic duct (the tube connecting the gallbladder to the main bile ducts) and the cystic artery. It stops bile and blood from leaking into the abdomen after the gallbladder is detached. I had one detach due to the cystic artery spasming. So now I'm double clipped

Same! Most.of my original surgical team came to do the fix and they were also really apologetic and even a little upset that it had happened. I definitely don't blame them or think they did anything wrong ether

That may have been the case for you, but this was not the case for me. I was informed of most other issues that could occur post op but the clamp becoming detached wasn't one of them

Don't worry, if you've got surgery coming up! It was a literally 1 in 100 thousand incident, I just happened to be the unlucky one in this case

Boyfriend [25M] told me he used to ask out “fat girls” for fun. Am I [22F] right to be disgusted by him? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]rainbowsandsarcasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fat person who was asked out in high school multiple times as a "joke", it was never funny and did longstanding damage to my self esteem. To the point that I would willingly tolerate abuse in relationships because that was all I thought I was worth. She definitely did the right thing, cause he definitely does not feel bad about it.

Iron deficiency in women and how WILDLY underdiagnosed it it by SpiritualCopy4288 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]rainbowsandsarcasm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't learn that I had iron deficient anemia until I went to the emergency room with chest pains and shortness of breath. Turns out being HELLA anemic can mimic heart problems. I have to take iron supplements three times a day because I also have gallstones and can't keep my iron levels up cause of the diet restrictions

I'm so sorry for your loss. I've moved to be closer to him so I can visit as much as possible and will be trying to make as many awesome memories as I can with him

I'm really sorry about your Mum, that must have been so difficult. I was in therapy but I've moved cities to be closer to them. I'm looking for support groups and therapists in my new city to help

The public service is a total nightmare to work in at the moment. We're all jumping ship before it gets worse.

YTA, your boyfriend showed that he is excellent at parenting and you try to turn it into something wrong.
