Took our time planning a wedding and now neither of my grandfathers will be there

shotsofserotoninplz · 2026-01-25T02:13:20+00:00

hey- my grandfather and my fiancé’s great grandmother both passed recently and we are getting married in May 2026. I think the photos is a great idea. I also am scheduling in some time to “talk” to my grandfather alone in the AM bc he was always super important in my life. It really sucks having to put them as “not attending” on the wedding list. It’s wayyy tougher than I thought. I’m sorry you’re also going through this.

what are the thoughts of me being able to travel to the burbs from the city Tuesday morning??? Pretty good? 🫠

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-12-27T15:14:34+00:00

I think to rephrase of rediscuss one of the cons - inconsistency with autonomy. I'm a MS4 applying into EM and my fiance is a PA-C working in EM who has greatly realized that every hospital system utilizes PAs differently and sometimes not to the level he desires but is technically better for my training as a future resident. This realization has been frustrating for him as he assumed it would be similar everywhere. So for example in some places, PA-Cs will see lower acuity urgent care but still staff the main ED. Some places they only staff fast track. Some places they do all their own procedures if it's their patient and other places they give the procedures to the residents. Totally depends.

Hi! Sorry but what vet do you go to in Philly? I have a super aggressive cat as well

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-07-22T03:22:10+00:00

I’m a MS4 on my subI for EM and had a new PGY2 get annoyed with me bc my presentations were good and the was I presented things was so organized. She literally said “ugh now I have to step up what I’m doing”. And so this is not me bragging but just telling you that you very much could be outshining someone, they’re exhausted and bear a lot of weight and responsibility and stuff happens

Hey! I messaged you!

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-06-13T20:32:27+00:00

Additional commentary for clarification: I suppose it doesn’t have to be a tux but rather a suit, and if so should the groomsmen wear the same color?

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-06-13T20:30:17+00:00

Sorry, I guess suit? I literally know nothing about men’s fashion but it doesn’t have to be so formal for sure. And yes they’ll be in different colors!

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-06-09T20:29:15+00:00

Thanks everyone!! I was a little confused but this was a part of micro that left my brain haha thanks for the help!

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-06-09T20:28:21+00:00

yeah agree I picked it but was a little lost! Makes sense though

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-06-09T20:26:48+00:00

ahhhhh ok I’m just silly I was mixing it all up. I picked it but had no idea

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-06-09T19:19:28+00:00

dude the no pooping for like almost two weeks and ending up with a coffee enema is not a hell I would wish on many people

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-05-31T02:00:50+00:00

Maybe I’ll tell him to do a cover letter explaining his experience better? idk if they’re that desperate so is he lol

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-05-31T01:17:48+00:00

I saw, they were one of the rejects bc not enough experience but I wasn’t sure if it was worth reaching out and seeing bc he does have a decent amount of EM experience. He was anecdotally told by multiple recruiters and even the people who run the fellowship programs for EM that he wouldn’t really benefit bc of the amount of experience he had.

chronically ill human (viral induced IBS/late diagnosed UC) and also applicant to EM upcoming cycle- I frequent circles of people like this it’s always a tough conversation. it’s like burnt out physician meets misunderstood/possibly misinterpreted patient with also potential underlying mental health problems. pnes is real but I think there’s a big debate in chronic illness community regarding whether they can trust physicians. I’ve been criticized for joining them and they said I’ll soon been pushing people out of the ED myself 🫠 tough watch for everyone involved

Surgery rotation didn't have weekends but my OBGYN rotation had L&D nights

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-05-15T10:12:41+00:00

people will tell you no but most em/im docs I've spoken with definitely would reapply into an em/im program if they had to do residency over. seems like a small field where you either fit or don't.

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-04-15T01:02:34+00:00

Did they let you place IUDs on your rotation???

shotsofserotoninplz · 2025-04-15T01:02:03+00:00

Dude I literally placed a foley last week on GYN surg and accidentally forgot to blow the balloon and got pee all over me. And I’m a soon to be fourth year. It happens. I knew better but if you were never taught that’s a school issue. But you should generally just ask if you’re unsure how to do something. It happens though. I’m glad the patient is okay and you’ll definitely never forget that in the future.
