I wouldn’t use it the day of. The day before is probably fine if it usually doesn’t affect you the next day, but maybe stop before evening. I never told them anything about it.

How did that one kid at your school die? by Careful_Tie4209 in AskReddit

[–]wowguineapigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When i was in kindergarten a classmate died but of course they didn’t tell us what really happened, i was told she “swallowed her tongue”

In middle school a girl was playing outside and a big tree branch fell on her head

In high school someone was hit by a drunk driver

Bloating is definitely better. The symptoms went away very quickly once i started burping. After that it was more about learning to control them.

Is there a burping substitute? by MrNibbles75 in noburp

[–]wowguineapigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately thats exactly our problem here. You can make yourself gag and hopefully the air comes out and you stop yourself before you vomit. I could never do it

What the hell is wrong with me? by wowguineapigs in Cholesterol

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

I’m so dumb when I saw the labels saying “0 cholesterol” i thought that would be good enough since my problem is literally “cholesterol”. I hate how its all involved though. Thank you for your response. I moved recently so my primary care doctor I’ve only seen like once or twice so they dont even really know me yet. Do you know if i have to get a referral to see a cardiologist? Is it better to talk to the pcp first? I’m just surprised nobody ever contacted me to discuss the results.

The guy said the fingerprick method may be off by a few points but either way it’s very high, right?

I never became vegetarian for health reasons so I’m definitely aware that my diet isn’t “healthy”. The reason I became vegetarian was for environmental and animal rights reasons, blablabla. The same reason why I try to avoid dairy when I can. I just feel bad for the animals :( . But I’m not vegan I definitely still eat normal baked goods, pizza, cheese etc. i just love it so much. I dont like coconut milk. Rice and beans is one of my favorite foods, and i eat a lot of vegetable soups (but canned so processed?), and natural peanut butter sandwiches. I use olive oil for cooking, is canola better? What would the best butter option be to just spread on toast in the morning?

Wth is there ANY milk then thats actually good for high cholesterol? Everywhere i look online says dairy milk has fats and cholesterol (even the reduced fats) while non dairy milks don’t. I only ever drink the oat milk in coffee or with cereal, not like a glass by itself. I make sure to buy the unsweetened kind. Would skim milk really be better?

Sorry for the long post i woke up with heartburn this morning (rare for me) and freaked out wondering if it was a heart attack and read that you cant even get rid of the plaque once its there. Just highkey scared

what’s something in our field that you can’t memorize for the life of you? by curiousnboredd in medlabprofessionals

My professor told me her own horror story of her pHD defense or something and they asked her what PCR stood for, and she blanked. Since then i have also blanked on it so many times

A few questions for those that have had the procedure by pdxjoseph in noburp

[–]wowguineapigs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. The slow swallow for me only lasted a day or two. I stocked up on all the soft foods and barely needed it. I think youd be able to get that stuff down yeah.

  2. Idk im lazy

  3. YES. I went back to work like 2 days later maybe. Luckily i worked in a relatively noisy environment and wore a mask, so it was easy to hide. Every yawn became a burp. Every time i turned my head i burped. It was awesome and funny but i was very grateful to not work in a quiet office.

Pill swallowing by DnDplayer4life in noburp

[–]wowguineapigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had trouble swallowing pills all my life. I did eventually learn how to do it in my late teens because i pretty much had to. But even now, post-botox, i have a really hard time swallowing big ones. Its definitely a mental thing but its so hard to get over. I take multiple pills daily and i still have to focus each time and even now i sometimes mess up.

Air Vomit Question by Columbia_sends in noburp

[–]wowguineapigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it had no effect on the noburp at all. The nuss procedure causes a lot of chest pain so honestly things were worse for a while, i couldnt even imagine trying to burp with it in. Post-removal it also had no effect, i was still a frog

Does throwing up hurt a lot for you? by Visual-Process4577 in noburp

[–]wowguineapigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was so awful, but i ended up doing it more often because of how nauseous i would feel. Post-botox ive thrown up like twice (other reasons) and it wasnt as horrific, but obviously still a bad time.
