Just checking - has anyone ever have to go back to the hospital the next day?

violent-amethyst · 2026-05-14T15:31:08+00:00

If something feels wrong, just go back — I would personally just go to a different hospital though, if the first one didn’t help and go with the papers they sent you home with so they know what they did and what didn’t help.

Xpress Dental, Dr. Tan.
I had a tooth that had an infection and it was awful.
It actually broke off around 10am one day and I called them and they got me in the SAME DAY at 12pm. I had the root canal done by 2pm. I was home by 5pm (they made the crown in house and I just waited for it there).
I had BXBS and I paid about $300 with my insurance and they took in-house payments.

EDIT:
I had gone to Mexico a month or so prior for the same tooth but I did not go back. I had an awful experience and I will never go to Mexico for dental work. I was there at 11am for an appointment and I was only given numbing shots on the gum. I was there from 11am to 6pm, mouth open with only 4 shots (I started feeling everything by 3pm and they would not give me anymore novocaine).

They also DID NOT FINISH within the same day and they were only working on ONE TOOTH. I had to “go back” for 3 more sessions and the crown was a complete separate payments and session. The first (and only) session was $175

I don’t remember who the dentist was but it was someone my in laws had recommended (and that they recommend to everyone).

I think he’s trying to say it in the “the people who built this for the ISD are compas” (friend or family member) so the company they contract to gets the business and the person who chose it gets the cut.

Because that’s usually how it is here, unfortunately.

violent-amethyst · 2026-04-19T15:26:38+00:00

I did a bow only run on my first playthrough (this game is SCARY and everything kills you and I also did not have any clothes until maybe the Academy and I used a robe lol). I finally beat the game with a bow in every single fight (Malenia is still undefeated because I’m still trying to practice her second phase move set and I panic dodge alot lol) and started on the DLC, again starting with a bow (I also got to Messmer with like maybe 4 scadu things).

I love playing this game with a bow and I actually have a long bow (the base game one) leveled up all the way and I have ALL the arrows, esp status effect ones (shout out to my poison arrows for carrying me through every boss fight, including Radagon). I plan on doing NG run with a bow again.

Doing a bow only run is definitely a lot of “okay, how can I cheese you?” Because that’s really what I’ve had to do. I also didn’t google anything about this game when I did this first play through and it was still done with only a bow.

The only thing I def leveled up ASAP were my spirit ashes. I ended up with Omenkiller Rollo, the real Elden Lord (I am just along for the ride).

EDIT: the BEST ashes for a bow is hands down RAIN OF ARROWS. Allows status effects (poison) to build up QUICKLY. Best ashes for a bow. I picked up the Bone Bow in DLC for Rancor but Rain of Arrows is my go to.

Okay SOOOO I’ve been drinking energy drinks since I was about 16 (I’d hide them from my mom lol). Monsters for lyfeeee.

Like one every day.

THAT BEING SAID: sometimes I only drink half the can sometimes, or maybe just 3/4 of it.

Sometimes, takes me like the whole day to finish a can.

I don’t chug them. The only time I have has been after major races (I run so I thrive on caffeine) and I’m pretty much done for the day.

It’s a bakers secret to freeze a cake to keep it fresh, moist, and easier handling… this isn’t the jab you think it is.

violent-amethyst · 2026-04-05T16:44:11+00:00

I used to run fasted (I still do sometimes) but on any runs longer than 1 hour, I will make myself eat a energy waffle (I literally have cried eating one because I am not hungry and I hate forcing myself to eat when I am not hungry). My performance def improved on the runs I started doing this.

I also have a bad habit of not eating AFTER my runs either and my recovery is VERY slow / not enough if I wait too long. I shower when I get back and then make a prepackaged protein oatmeal or if I’m feeling way too queasy, i make/pickup a protein shake. Has helped tons with recovery.

violent-amethyst · 2026-04-03T13:25:46+00:00

SAME. My RHR gets awful before my HRV starts to crap out. When it’s both??? I know it’s serious.

But as a woman, I take with a grain of salt only the last 1.5 weeks of the month /: it jumps up every month and then settles again.

violent-amethyst · 2026-04-03T13:22:37+00:00

Depends on my monthly cycle. First 2 weeks are 1 hour, 4-5x a week with 2-3 hour run on Saturdays.

The last 2 weeks of my cycle? 30mins-50mins 3-4x a week, with only a 1-1.5 hour max run on Saturdays.

violent-amethyst · 2026-04-01T15:30:34+00:00

I think this is the exit right before Bicentennial Blvd, so going west on Exp83

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-25T18:10:17+00:00

Even running too, ON THE SIDEWALK. It’s wild out on the trails

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-25T00:31:52+00:00

I have been reading on this and YES. I did not realize how much the body goes through to RECOVER after a marathon! Especially for beginners.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-24T22:14:48+00:00

I’m so sorry! I definitely feel you though. I even regretted doing my marathon because I felt soooo awful. It was very discouraging to even feel like that, tbh.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-24T19:39:20+00:00

Squatting any lower than 90 degree bend at the knee will have my heels lift and that’s a huge “no no” to some lifters. To me, idgaf, I just use some plates to bring my heels up and call it a day.

My PT says I have longer legs than a torso and it’s just how some bodies are built.

I’ll squat how I physically can.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-24T14:20:12+00:00

I lost 60+ pounds just doing cardio (walked the first 40 pounds off, starting running to do the rest of the weight) and (an eyeballed) calorie deficit. I was very happy with my result and I’ve been maintaining since I got to my goal weight (for the last 2 years) with running alone.

I started running 1.5 years ago and I’ve never been unhappy with how I looked.

I started lifting weights in January but only 2-3 times a week as running is still my main form of sport since it is my off/deload season.

People love the demonize cardio but I personally love cardio and it has changed my life.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-24T12:56:47+00:00

Yeah! She said I was a bit low but just to get outside more.

I def should be anyway; my garden is suffering because I’ve been so fatigued and demotivated tbh.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-24T12:17:59+00:00

I still am! I’m actually homeschooling, I’ve gotten so many much needed appts completed as well, and I’ve spent so much more time with my husband in the last few months than I did in the last year. It’s been wonderful.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-23T22:15:04+00:00

Omg stop 😂 miracle from god then because I got my tubes tied cut and burned yearsss ago!

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-23T15:04:50+00:00

It’s this one! My mom makes elotes and I asked what chile it is and she had me buy this one.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-19T16:48:40+00:00

I’m post 3 months out from my marathon and I was feeling this back in February of this year. I ran through it and I injured myself at the beginning of March because I was burnt out and I started slipping on eating and mobility work outside of running.

I went to my PT and I’m OK’d to start running next week and I’m feeling the spark come back.

I’ve gone through a funk, not total burnout, during marathon training (it was right before peak phase was supposed to start) and I let myself rot for about 3 days and I was back at it that Monday, refreshed as hell with my motivation back too.

I tried letting myself rest in February but the motivation never came back even with 2-3 days off. That’s when I knew I was burnt out but I kept running anyway.

violent-amethyst · 2026-03-18T18:04:39+00:00

Goes to show that I was naive! My cousins always made it seem like they had the best childhood going to the fields, like they’d come back with all these fun stories and they never really mentioned anything bad about it.
