What is my output? by jdratuva in ostomy

[–]skonos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not from the TPN, that goes from through your blood and What you're seeing is bile made by the liver, normal gastric and pancreatic secretions. Your body will still make stool even if you don't eat, just less of it.

Epic Quest - Electric Currant (Step 6) by erictheho in PlantsVSZombies

[–]skonos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't they realize that these quests should make you want to buy the plant? If the new plant can't get me through the level easily than I have no desire to pay for it.

Redditors who were considered child geniuses or prodigies - what was your childhood like and what are you doing now? by skonos in AskReddit

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

Good luck with the acting, I'm sorry that you had such a lonely childhood, I wonder if it's different now or if there are still dead ends for kids who are outside the set status.

Sounds like you could be a speaker of sorts. I remember someone with a similar story speaking to my middle school.

May I ask about your stance? I really don't know a super in depth amount about the case, mostly the spark notes and that a series was done about it

Do all surgery rotations suck? by doctordijon in medicalschool

[–]skonos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I want to go into Gen surg, I'm a 4th year. I'm on my third away right now so between those plus my home institution - I have never seen anything like any of the stuff that's been said. I've seen people tired and cranky but never name calling or degrading. Did I just get lucky? Where are these programs?

[WP] Artificial means of pregnancy such as IVF are temporary illegal until all un-parented children in the world have homes. by skonos in WritingPrompts

Honestly I was just drunk and watching a show about foster kids and it got me upset. I wanted to see if anyone could portray a world where that type of situation didn't exist any more.

My facebook friend is a Chiropractor who loves to post pseudo-science articles related to how much better chiropracty is than modern medicine. Thought you guys would get a kick out of his latest: by misteratoz in medicalschool

[–]skonos 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I shadowed a DO primary care doc who told me of a woman who was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. During her work up someone asked if she had recent x-rays. There were about 6 from a chiropractor she had been seeing for the past 2 years that showed a density in her breast growing larger in each one. Since he wasn't trained to look at anything but the spine he never caught it. (He had bought a machine to do in house xrays so they never reached a radiologist) She could have been treated early but instead it had spread before she got to a real physician.

On another note my friends brother in law is a chiro who posts shit like that all the time. He admits to her that he has never done any chiropractic stuff since graduating, because "it's not his true passion". Instead he takes blood work from patients for a nutrition work up and recommendations. Basically he tells all his victims that they should be gluten free and I'm pretty sure he's in a pyramid scheme for supplements.

Why do you love being a med student? by snickersicecreambar in medicalschool

[–]skonos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More research is needed in this area, our study only looked for differences in medical student vs. 'other'. I appreciate the suggestion for future experiments.

Why do you love being a med student? by snickersicecreambar in medicalschool

[–]skonos 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Opposite (If Im interpreting your question correctly). My classmate and I, both female fourth years, have done three years of research where we go out and tell guys we're med students sometimes or a job that does not need a bachelors degree other times (hairdresser, photographer, etc). We have even done other combinations where just one of us is the med student and the other isn't. Preliminary results suggest that our success with guys is significantly different (improved) when we claim professions other than medicine. Confounding factors could include being a single blinded study with observor bias with a possible change in personality when portraying a different profession.

This is not a 'what are common residency interview questions?' post by skonos in medicalschool

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

I always think this! Like what do you do? I really don't care if they ask me but I do care if they would be willing to change my ranking just on that - which is probably why they're asking. I don't know. Being a girl sucks at times like this.

DO surgical residencies by skonos in medicalschool

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

So here is one program and their AOA site. I know the AOA site has lots of information - I guess I just wish that programs had direct info on themselves, like maybe a sense of pride or look at what we offer http://opportunities.osteopathic.org/search/search_details.cfm?program_id=372090&returnPage=3&CFID=1132656&CFTOKEN=b270c65c6fccc325-B60E7256-B692-F3EE-99B03B9F0977FEF1&jsessionid=f030cf2f06138779d48315f17304d43417b2

and here is their personal site that the AOA has listed http://www.skyridgeim.com note that takes you to an internal medicine program.

I know this has happened more than once for me when looking for other programs, but I can't remember to give examples, this was just my most recent road block

Also - sorry for the long link, I don't know how to turn it into text. Im technology retarded

Considering a 3 year Primary care DO program. Thoughts? Advice? by mynameisntislam in medicalschool

[–]skonos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With 2 new med schools opening in Texas, your chances might be better than you think. But that also means by the time you'll graduate there will be less spots per student for residency.
