2024.05.22 01:41 Sea-Big-812 Rant about the isolation of medical transition
I feel like i’ve really been thrust into the deep end immediately. I don’t really even know where to start but i think context is Import so i’ll begin with that:
My family are socially and emotionally “tolerant” but financially supportive. They more or less refuse to call me my chosen name or refer to me as he but fund my transition and idly allow me to do whatever i need to do. I’m grateful for what I have but it doesn’t help in how alone I feel in pursuing it. I don’t have any trans friends medically transitioning at this moment either so there’s nobody to actually discuss this with in depth besides some offhand complaints i make to certain close cis friends.
I’m in the UK so I’m in private care for HRT + surgeries (fucking extortionate) and the onus is completely on me to align every single appointment appropriately with 3 different providers who are all seemingly being as obtuse as possible. I just turned 18 earlier this year and started on T almost immediately, I had 3 appointments with a private gender clinic in another city prior to starting HRT and am expected to see this clinic every 3 months for checkups + prescriptions which is standard enough. My NHS GP however refused shared care and are now refusing to do bloodtests after initially being willing to cooperate on that front. Even then i ended up missing the 3 month window between my first checkup with the gender clinic to have my bloodtest results ready because my NHS GP only does appointments on the day and I have to spend hours in the morning on hold which is annoying at best and exhausting at worst.
As soon as I started T I looked into top surgery surgeons as I want to have that out of the way as soon as possible and ideally I’d have it done before starting uni in September. Fortunately I did book a date in July so I’ll be able to have a lot of the rudimentary aftercare out of the way before uni as well but the surgeon is on the other side of the country (400 miles away) so I’m having to fly down.
For my consultation I took an 8 hour train and stayed with a friend who lives in the same city as the practice which was a massive help but i realised it would be a dogshit idea to stick myself in a shitey train for 8 hours after major surgery in the summer heat so i opted for the 1 hour plane trip but that comes with its own issues. I wanted to wait until i had my deed poll done to actually decide to get my ID but again im realising that I’m probably just going to have to get an ID as soon as possible for the flight and tank it having my deadname etc. It isn’t the end of the world but on top of everything else it feels like another massive pain in the arse.
Another issue was my gender clinic didn’t inform me they wanted me to have an appointment specifically for a top surgery referral. I understood that they’d want that if I was going through them to find a surgeon but because I did the research on my own I thought they’d be happy to just write it. This means that i’m having the referral appointment a week before i travel for surgery which I’m trying to force to the back of my mind because I know it’s something that i can’t control anymore but it just feels like more mounting stress.
There are many more smaller issues such as the the gender clinic where I’m receiving my HRT being 2 hours away but I think my main problem is just how isolating the experience is. Nobody around me understands how frustrating it is to stitch together all these different appointments in a way that aligns reasonably but at the same time i dont feel like i have any right to complain. I’m getting treatment at an ideal point while most other young trans people in the UK are being shafted and i’ve been out of school/work for a year at this point.
I just don’t know what to make of it. I’m juggling all this shit but I also feel completely stunted and behind people my age but hopefully that issue will resolve itself once I’m in uni and am at least a bit stealth. I think as well now that I’m on T and know i’m 2 months away from this surgery I’ve desperately wanted since i was 11 my resolve is starting to wear thin and I just want to live as a normal guy who can go to the gym comfortably or just fucking leave the house without stressing about how my chest is sitting etc.
Thanks for reading, sorry if this comes off as needless whinging. Any advice or anecdotes would be nice to hear at least

2024.05.22 01:31 Seven3leven Can doctors have medical students in the room with patients/ view their records WITHOUT patient consent? (Is this a HIPPA violation?) iowa
Recently I had the worst doctor visit of my life. I was medically gaslight, lied too, told my past condition didn’t exist and more. I was having alloottttt of irregular 🐱 bleeding. Less than a week before, I was seen in urgent care they ran a ton of tests but could only do pelvic exams/ DNA testing. I continued to bleed (also at the time having terrible GI issues so pain is hard to pinpoint) and with my POTS ended up fainting.
Because of this I went to the ER and it was the worst visit of my life. From the beginning he was so mean to me, I don’t even know why. Now I’ve had a lot of doctor appointments and neither his nurse or himself asked if his student was allowed to be in the room/help/anything of the sort. He wanted to re run some tests including a pelvic exam. I told him I would run other tests but not the pelvic since it was ran less than a week ago and I have PTSD, and that’s a trigger. He said that’s fine and I didn’t have too.
After a whole bunch more treating me like sht and not addressing the problem at hand (the bleeding) he kept trying to focus on my POTS (which had only been exasperated because of the bleeding). I ended up recording the conversation a minute or so in because he was being so mean. I live in IA (one party consent) but he also said he knew I was recording when I told him. Later on after knowing I was consenting to every test but the pelvic he told me I would not be discharged if it wasn’t completed. He did not tell me I could sign an AMA just for the pelvic exam. I was told I couldn’t get a new doctor because one wasn’t in but would be in at 10. When 10 came around I still didn’t get a new doctor, I could not get a second opinion(???) , and was full blown in a PTSD attack walking out the door.
*I made a complaint to the hospital, which today, I found out literally just had a talk with him (not even like as he did something wrong more like checking boxes) so I started to look more into the HIPPA laws. They are confusing to me, I won’t lie, but I thought it was seeming since an unauthorized student had access to my mental health record, lab results (including STD testing), and general file it was a violation. It was found a couple days later multiple cysts in my ovaries were found. * A pelvic exam would’ve never showed that and he just wanted to discharge me after a pelvic exam….
I do have on recording also him saying I did not have to do pelvic exam and then saying I must to be discharged. Throughout the 3 hours I continued to tell the doc/nurse that I was having really bad PTSD and also said it was getting worse throughout the time (because of past miscarriage issues/ childhood issues…). They kept pushing me until I had a complete PTSD attack walking out of the hospital. Could this be negligence? vv
“However, once a doctor voluntarily decides to assist others or comes to their aid, the doctor becomes liable for any injury that results from negligence during that assistance.”
Obviously it’s not a physical injury but😩 that seriously made me scared to live the rest of my life as a chronically ill person or get help. I just hate this so much because I will never forget that appointment, I will never forget him treating me like that as I’m being so vulnerable and respectful. As my mental health workers could vouch, it set me back in my progress by a lot and even farther back on my crippling doctor anxiety.
I just feel I have him on recording being so mean, saying one thing and then another, telling me the doc comes in at 10 but never turning over my case or get a second opinion on if I needed a pelvic exam to be released, not telling me I could sign an AMA only for the pelvic exam, telling me the condition that made me loose my baby wasn’t real (was literally diagnosed), just so much. If there’s legally nothing wrong here, including HIPPA, could I just post the videos? I was never told I must delete or not to post. I’m just so sick of this, I don’t want this to be the rest of my life and I don’t want to continue to get traumatized by men having a power trip.

2024.05.22 01:30 ReggieEvansTheKing (CA) Can I do move out inspection on my elderly father’s behalf?
My dad’s lease is set to expire next month. Due to medical issues, he ended up moving into assisted living prior to the end of his lease back in March. Since then, my sister and I have been cleaning up some of the loose ends like finding new homes for his furniture and rehoming his dog. We also took over communication with the landlord. The landlord wants to do a move-out inspection, which we agree to (as it usually protects both parties). They told us though that either my dad will need to be present or that I will need to be legally authorized to act on his behalf. My dad has been in the hospital for quite some time now and would be unable to go in person but we also do not have power of attorney because he still has mental capacity (as outlined in his trust).
Is there any avenue where I would be able to do the move out inspection on behalf of him without power of attorney? I was thinking I could either use facetime or simply take a video throughout the entire inspection. I don’t want the landlord to take advantage of his situation to extract his full security deposit but am unsure of what else I could legally do.

If you are interested please comment and I will be in touch!

2024.05.22 01:16 ElenorClemm AITHA for getting divorced because I was tired of insisting on couples therapy because of my postpartum depression and he wouldn't accept?
At the fisrt, sorry for my english, i'm a little oxidated, but i'll try my best. (it's not my original lenguaje)
But first, a little of context:
It's an story by 7 years. I did meet my (not still) ex-husband on a convention of Anime, i did in cossplayed by Electra and he was Tony Stark, he was had a girlfriend and I was in a toxit relationship (story i'll tell in other time). But in that day, i swear, i did wish had him, i did fall in love. We talk just a little moment, we take a photograph and we keep going with our lives.
One year latter, when i'd brake up my relationship, i fall down in a horrible depression and 1 try to unsiscribe by the life. I'd try to grow up and join a group of single peopple just search fun. I'd was surprised to find that boy again in that group.
Uno month latter, we'd be in a relationship. After two years, we was marrige. Whitout anything more than love, we start this new stage, in the night of weddings, i got pregnant.
At that moment, i wasn´t know i had anxiety and depression cronique, and during pregnancy it only gets worse, and our relationship wasn't the best, we fight a lot, especially because I felt very unprotected by my partner: when we went out there were men who made bad comments to me and I even had to walk home alone after work, not to mention that there were a couple of occasions in which, due to the times , I could only prepare food and run to work, without eating a bite, to be surprised when I returned that he alone finished the food without leaving me anything.
Added to that, the first four months of pregnancy and marriage, he was without work, I had to take care of the household alone; Added to this, to lighten the burden a little, a relative did us the favor of renting us well below the value he had, his house which was uninhabited. Imagine my shame when he asked for the rent and I didn't have the money to pay because my husband didn't go out looking for work. If they hadn't given him an ultimatum, he would have spent years like this, until he asked for a job at the only company where they don't fire anyone.
All of this caused me to spend the entire pregnancy stressed and worried.
The last straw was the day my baby was born, which coincided with my husband's birthday. I had a complicated birth, in which they had to do an emergency procedure: I was hospitalized for two full days, alone, without eating or drinking anything (For those who don't know, the medical service in Mexico is beyond terrible). Not to make it long, my birth was more than complicated; and my mortification was no less when all my relatives, when they were able to come see me, kept telling me how mortified they were, on the other hand my husband looked like a child at Christmas because they brought him gifts for his birthday, even my best friend from school.
When my baby was born, I was aware that I wasn't feeling well, so I decided to take some time to recover before returning to work. And for those who are wondering, it's not like I had a great job, our economic position was not good at all, but my depression only got worse since my baby was born, the complications of childbirth made me feel terribly guilty just thinking about it. that something could have happened to my baby.
Day after day, even though I did not work and did not contribute financially to the house, I made an effort to ensure that the little money that came into the house was enough for everything: milk, diapers and food. Despite everything, I always made sure to prepare a good breakfast and lunch for my husband to take to work, I got up before him so I could have that attention with him; Imagine my disappointment when he often returned with the food intact from when she prepared it for him and told me that he had preferred to buy something to eat. This only made me feel like I was useless. Added to the fact that on more than one occasion he even left the front door of the house open for us: a woman who had just had surgery and a newborn baby, in a neighborhood where, in open secret, it was hot for organized crime, added to the fact that I I felt insecure around him.
My family kept making comments to me about how bad my husband felt for me, how bad I looked (comments that I questioned, because my family never liked my husband). Despite the bad things, he had his attempts to be thoughtful and considerate (in the wrong way or causing me more problems, but I understood that it was his way of showing that he cared).
This was when I began to understand that my husband was like that, disconnected from reality, it was his shell of protection since he practically grew up in foster homes with "relatives" or "acquaintances", many of them were very violent and mistreated him, making him feel alone and vulnerable. I learned much of this from him, the rest his mother herself came to tell me and the rest was a matter of adding 2 + 2.
When I assimilated this and that the situation would not improve, when my baby turned 9 months old, I decided to look for a job, fortunately I found a way to work from what I studied (because yes, I have a degree), and with very humanitarian bosses. those who didn't even mind me occasionally taking my baby to teach classes with me (because yes, I ended up teaching at a basic level). Thanks to this, the situation at home improved a little, but the arguments did not stop over small things, more than anything everything he did or did not do bothered me. I guess it was because of the exhaustion of dealing with everything alone, and for anyone wondering, no, he practically didn't help me with the baby issues; With the household chores (just washing the dishes and sometimes sweeping the common areas), I took care of the rest, in addition to always making sure the house was safe for a one-year-old baby.
One of the breaking points for me (this occurs in the dark time of the pandemic when we all lock ourselves at home), your company was one of the last to send them to rest, however, since my sector was related to dealing with children, I was one of the first sectors to confine themselves to home, so now I was doing homme office. One morning I realized that the man not only lost the keys to the house, but he took mine to leave, locked them and left them stuck outside the door, leaving me locked in with my baby without the possibility of getting out if anything arose. emergency. If it hadn't been for my father, who came to visit me to see how he was doing, who knows what would have happened. Get an idea of how little he cared about the safety of his family.
These, among other things, added up over the years, until I began to ask him, as a last chance to save our marriage (because at this point, I felt broken and discouraged), I insisted that we seek help, couples therapy or at least individual therapy, but he didn't listen to me or wasn't interested. Until the first time I packed my and my baby's things, he realized that I was serious and that I would leave him, he still didn't want therapy, not even when I was honest with him and told him that there were many things that I couldn't do. forgive him, especially for the pregnancy; What did happen was that he began to collaborate more at home and finally began to take responsibilities with our son.
The facts:
What ended up being the final break was a day of extreme heat, where the weather was useless and there were no technicians operating in the area. My son, now 3 years old, is very hot and in any heat his nose tends to bleed a lot, especially that weekend he was very tired, despite that, the only solution I could think of was to put the pool inside the house ( to avoid having it under the sun), I clarify that at that time we lived in a small two-bedroom apartment, which yes, I admit was an impractical solution but it was the only thing that occurred to me. Even before I did it, I notified him of what I was trying to do, not to ask for permission, but just to notify him so he wouldn't be taken by surprise.
When he got home, he didn't say hello, he didn't say anything, he just left his things and left the house to get a taxi. When I caught up with him to ask him, he said he was going to his mother's house to get an air conditioning unit that he planned to bring to install to solve the problem, to which I gave him my list of problems with it, because we didn't have permission to make modifications to begin with. Thus in the department, adding the amount of electricity it used, transportation, among others. To which he also responded with his list of drawbacks that he saw with my solution. The point is that the argument escalated and ended with him throwing the water into the garden and me locking myself in the room with my daughter, enduring the heat of the day.
Neither of us spoke to each other the rest of the day, in the morning, the first thing I did was pack my things and my baby's things discreetly. I called my parents to tell them what had happened and they were more than willing to receive us (something that did not make me so calm because, yes, one of the reasons why I married him in a hurry was that my parents were a cornerstone of my anxiety and depression).
The next night, with my things packed, I waited for my husband to drop the bomb, tell him that he was leaving with our son, he cried a lot, he begged me for another chance; That time I didn't shed a single tear, not because I didn't love him, despite everything, I followed him and I still love him, but I realized that I was loving him more than I loved me and my daughter. . I didn't cry because I spent years crying alone and falling asleep with tears.
I asked him if he would prefer to end the relationship peacefully, where we could still rescue our friendship, before reaching a point where I couldn't even tolerate seeing him.
That was the only time when he finally said that he would take therapy, but I no longer believed him. I know he did it just to convince me, but in the end he wasn't going to do it. So I decided to leave the next day with my things. It was the last time we talked about it.
At the moment:
We have a year apart, we decided to give ourselves a few months to settle in and calm our spirits. Despite this, we have still kept in touch through our daughter, when it is her turn to visit or when she brings him an errand.
I don't deny that I still love him, and now I'm the one who would like our marriage to be fixed, but he is the first to say that he feels better now.
Now that I am living with my parents, my symptoms of anxiety and depression have not improved at all, on the contrary. I don't know if I ever feel like going back to him was a desperate attempt to get out of my parents' house, because he was the only person who made me feel understood and that there was nothing wrong with being who I was (I did). which has mainly contributed to my mental health), because I clarify, my son has a disability and since his diagnosis, he has not contributed much either, I have been with the support of my family in the face of that, but not with my ex-husband or the his family, so I use practically all of my salary on my son and his basic needs; His father gives me alimony for him, but only the equivalent of $20 dollars a week, against medication a month that costs about $100, plus his therapies and special attention.
So I ask.
AITAH for asking my husband for a divorce for refusing to go to therapy?
I really appreciate that you take the time, I know that it is not a short or brief story, I will try to answer your questions in the comments if I have not been clear in any aspect. Right now I'm a mess, I'm discouraged because my situation is currently not good, my profession wears me out emotionally and mentally, added to the condition of my son who makes me feel like I'm not doing things right...
I need to know that there is something in life that I haven't done so badly. In advance, thank you Reddit community.

2024.05.22 01:06 EquivalentTaro8722 The Remarkable Journey of Dr. Dave Nayak: Doctor, Farmer, and Community Activist
Few individuals shine as brightly as Dr. Dave Nayak. His dedication to serving others transcends his professional roles, making him a beacon of hope and a pillar of strength for many. Dr. Nayak's journey is a compelling narrative of compassion, resilience, and relentless commitment to making a difference.
Dr. Nayak's primary vocation is that of a medical doctor. Through the Strength to Love Foundation, he offers free healthcare to uninsured patients. In a healthcare system where access is often limited by financial constraints, Dr. Nayak’s efforts ensure that those most in need receive the care they deserve. His work is a testament to the belief that healthcare is a fundamental right, not a privilege reserved for the few. The foundation stands as a lifeline for countless individuals who might otherwise be left without essential medical services.
Beyond the walls of his clinic, Dr. Nayak dedicates himself to farming. On Nayak Farms, he cultivates specialty crops such as sweet corn and green beans. Rather than selling his produce for profit, Dr. Nayak donates it to local food banks and pantries. This generous act addresses the critical issue of food insecurity, providing fresh and nutritious food to families who might otherwise struggle to afford it. His agricultural contributions reflect a profound commitment to nurturing his community's health and well-being from the ground up.
Dr. Nayak’s impact does not stop at healthcare and agriculture. He is also a passionate community activist, particularly focused on the issue of gun violence. The devastating effects of gun violence, especially on young lives, moved him to action. Through his advocacy, Dr. Nayak successfully lobbied for legislation in the Illinois Congress that provides financial assistance for the burials and funerals of children murdered by gun violence. This legislation offers crucial support to grieving families, helping them navigate the difficult aftermath of such tragedies without the added burden of financial stress.
Balancing these diverse roles is no small feat, but Dr. Nayak’s work in each area is interconnected by a single, unifying mission: to serve and uplift his community. His medical practice informs his understanding of health needs, his farming addresses food insecurity, and his activism fights for systemic change and justice. Each aspect of his work complements the others, creating a holistic approach to community service.
Dr. Nayak's story is an inspiring example of how one individual's dedication can create ripples of positive change. His actions are driven by a deep sense of empathy and responsibility towards those around him. The gratitude of patients receiving free care, the smiles of families enjoying fresh produce, and the relief of parents supported through his legislation are the true measures of his impact.
Dr. Dave Nayak exemplifies the power of compassion and action. His journey encourages us all to look at our own lives and consider how we can contribute to the well-being of our communities. Whether through professional expertise, personal passions, or advocacy for justice, we all have the potential to make a difference. Dr. Nayak's multifaceted approach to philanthropy serves as a powerful reminder that with dedication and heart, we can create a more just and caring world.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about Dr. Dave Nayak’s incredible journey. His story is a call to action for each of us to find our own ways to give back and support those around us.

Balancing these diverse roles is no small feat, but Dr. Nayak’s work in each area is interconnected by a single, unifying mission: to serve and uplift his community. His medical practice informs his understanding of health needs, his farming addresses food insecurity, and his activism fights for systemic change and justice. Each aspect of his work complements the others, creating a holistic approach to community service.
Dr. Nayak's story is an inspiring example of how one individual's dedication can create ripples of positive change. His actions are driven by a deep sense of empathy and responsibility towards those around him. The gratitude of patients receiving free care, the smiles of families enjoying fresh produce, and the relief of parents supported through his legislation are the true measures of his impact.
Dr. Dave Nayak exemplifies the power of compassion and action. His journey encourages us all to look at our own lives and consider how we can contribute to the well-being of our communities. Whether through professional expertise, personal passions, or advocacy for justice, we all have the potential to make a difference. Dr. Nayak's multifaceted approach to philanthropy serves as a powerful reminder that with dedication and heart, we can create a more just and caring world.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about Dr. Dave Nayak’s incredible journey. His story is a call to action for each of us to find our own ways to give back and support those around us.

2024.05.22 00:58 dscarbon333 Why don't more people seemingly know about the "alternative treatments" for various conditions per se, and the perspectives, there associated, vis. items like depression etc.?
Given that information in other posts about available information(if looking for it perhaps, per se), regarding "alternative treatments" for the situation that may be associated with the idea of "depression" and or the other nutritional augmentation/modification related items are somewhat "lesser known" than more "conventional approaches"/"main stream approaches", why are the "main stream approaches" the "main stream approaches" as per majority of physicians etc., general public etc.?
One might argue that these specific referenced items of information in question being "less well known" than more "well trumpeted" items like pharmaceutical medications, etc., amounts to somewhat of a "betrayal" arguably; and hence one might be lead to ask one's self "who is involved" in the betrayal arguably? "What are the mechanisms" via which this "betrayal" is proliferated throughout society, in general?
Well, presumably, this betrayal would involve several key actors.
-Sources of Information,
and
-Framers of Information.
A "source" of said information could essentially be argued to entail/involve organizations like the main-stream-media and/or a run-of-the-mill mainstream medical providers arguably.
Hence one might wonder perhaps, where the source of said issue vis. there associated potential entities/individuals/there associated organizations may lie, perhaps.
To suss this out, one may be "well guided" to potentially asses the sources of revenue etc., for said organizations etc., as appropriate etc.; "Follow the Money", "Qui Bono" etc.(not necessarily always true but at times may be useful "guides" perhaps)
To work from the "ground up" one may hence be "well guided" to asses, for example, the revenue sources of Main Stream Media first, as this is most ubiquitous source for "medical advice" in general perhaps;
-Pharmaceutical companies within group of largest 5 ad spenders vis. main stream media;

https://www.foxbusiness.com/money/which-pharma-brand-spends-the-most-on-tv
https://www.statista.com/statistics/953104/pharma-industry-tv-ad-spend-us/
-As is somewhat obvious media companies are in general, in some regard, directly or indirectly often effectively "advertising companies", in effect;
https://www.pewresearch.org/journalism/2014/03/26/revenue-sources-a-heavy-dependence-on-advertising/
Further, one can not truly reasonably expect to rely on main stream media coverage alone for decent medically oriented advice unfortunately perhaps in general.
None the less, fortuitously there are run of the mill health care providers. Hopefully they wouldn't have any conflicts of interest with financial behemoths like large pharmaceutical companies right?
Well, unfortunately pharmaceutical company money is very present in both the education of the average western-medicine oriented doctor, as well as in the environment which they may operate in, in a post college etc., "setting" if one will, etc.
For example;
Pharmaceutical companies' "presence" in Canadian medical schooling;
https://www.sootoday.com/around-ontario/canada-how-big-pharma-can-impact-the-education-of-med-school-students-1634906
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3778453/
In US, etc., as well;

https://www.propublica.org/article/we-found-over-700-doctors-who-were-paid-more-than-a-million-dollars-by-drug-and-medical-device-companies
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19723256/
Well, if pharmaceutical company money is potentially "creating" "conflicts of interest" within medical schools, and among run of the mill doctors, well, certainly, regulators would call them out if they did anything "inappropriate" right?
Unfortunately, there may also be potential "conflicts of interest" present within regulators potentially as well. For example, via the "revolving door", and other there associated phenomena, as well as through funding and other more direct financial conflicts of interest as well; as may be documented via the following perhaps;

Also, within there-associated research institutes/clinics/labs etc., the desire to secure sources-of-funding may also acutely draw in the influence of pharmaceutical companies into the "scientific research" process associated with the field of "medicine" if one will in general for example;
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9302569/

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIsMldhzxns
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y_EkKhs5BQ
Further, within research institutions and research at Universities etc., people would only, even if unduly influenced by pharmaceutical industry or other industry finances etc., directly or indirectly, none the less behave ethically, and in an up-standing and competent way in regards to conducting their research right? They certainly wouldn't produce dubious "scientific" or otherwise "academic" oriented research perhaps right? Surely, they would be concerned with being called out, and the there-associated consequence for doing as such etc. perhaps?
Well, it turns out that quite a lot of modern "scientific research", even if "fancy" and "rigorous" in its supposed "methodologies" "verbiage" etc., is actually of "dubious" origin, and representative of something less than "integrity" and "excellence" potentially, lets just say seemingly;
A large amount of "scientific research papers" submitted to "Academic Journals", are later retracted, etc.;
https://www.theguardian.com/science/2024/feb/03/the-situation-has-become-appalling-fake-scientific-papers-push-research-credibility-to-crisis-point?ref=labnotes.org
Many, if not most of the scientific, etc., papers that clear the review process and are published, are later found to be un-reproducible, vis. results etc., outcomes etc., for "whatever reason", seemingly;

https://www.sciencenews.org/article/cancer-biology-studies-research-replication-reproducibility
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis
Hence, from the education, to the research, to the regulation of the "medical industry" in the US, etc., one may find, arguably, objectively speaking, a relatively profoundly large presence of "pharmaceutical industry" financial influence involved in practically every stage of the; research, review of the research(if the "research" is even somewhat "legit" to begin with), govt. institution associated actions(for example; "Approval", etc.) associated with said associated "research", and one can even see said same organizations(Ph. Companies) similarly being the leading contributors to the main-stream-media associated "coverage"/"discussions" of said associated items, both directly, via advertising, and indirectly vis. implicit bias of said profit driven or funding driven main-stream media outlets etc.
Hence, arguably, the "influence"-of pharmaceutical companies' "motivations" may have a disproportionate and relatively overwhelming per se, influence upon the "medical" information that is presented-to, and made-easily available to the average member of the public in the "Western World" in general perhaps.
As an aside obviously, if one will, there are many other books, articles, research papers etc., which may somehow none the less, "make it through" this net of biases and still somehow report on it, if one will; on this, there associated variety of topics in question, which one may further perhaps research and analyze as to one's own preferences perhaps.

2024.05.22 00:57 dodgergirl83 Trulicity supply issues
I haven’t seen this talked about here so I thought I would inquire.
I am type 2, have been for about 3 years. Initial A1C was 11 and labs a couple weeks ago were at 6.7.
I am on 1000 mg of Metformin twice per day and 4.5 of Trulicity injections weekly.
No pharmacy within an hour of me (I’m in California) can get Trulicity so I put a message into my Dr letting her know and asking for an alternative. An office assistant just called me back and essentially asked what I wanted to be on and that my Doctor is “out.” I pressed back and asked if there was a Dr available that could give me some options as I am not a medical professional. She said she would have someone call me.
I’ve started a little preliminary research but am looking to see what others are taking and what any side effects have been like.
I’m frustrated as I feel like I’m in a good spot but don’t want to get off track by no longer being on a medication that’s helping.
Any input is appreciated!

2024.05.22 00:53 dradrado Is zero inhibiting cosmological understanding?
 | When theorising in astrophysics, and more specifically the beginning and expansion of the universe (the big bang), the phenomenon of black holes and the mysteries behind dark matter and dark energy, we mistakenly use the two concepts interchangeably, they being 1. The philosophical zero, ie nothingness, and 2. The mathematics concept of zero, ie summarily attaching the philosophical concept of zero, with a numerical designation because it greatly assists the functionality of mathematic in the paradigm of our observable reality. Also please bearing mind the the math concept of zero allows negative values, unlike the philosophy, and when discussing space time, there is no place for negative numbers. Now that said and made clear, I believe it impossible for us to attempt to explain the unimaginable, without separation and distinction of the two concepts when infinity is brought into the conversation. Infinity, like zero, is a philosophical concept not all that dissimilar to zero, it has a mathematical conceptual basis also, but unlike the philosophical zero ie nothingness, it is given a numerical designation that more accurately relates to it philosophically, even though it is not strictly a number and cannot he used in any tangible calculation, mathematics certainly allows for its philosophical manifestation into mathematical equations. submitted by dradrado to ZeroOrInfinity [link] [comments] I see this as a huge conflict, especially as it the very essence of big bang theory ie from nothing came infinity at the moment of the big bang. We surely cannot hope to solve this puzzle if the universe if we are conceptually flawed at he very starting point. 0 and infinity therefore cannot be used together in any calculation because we haven't yet reconciled the two conceptually. How can we look at this differently? How can we navigate passed mathematical dogma a concepts our brains are not capable of truly understanding on a practical level? These are very tough existential and philosophical problems. So rather than just critise the current order and point out what I see as conflicts, but offer no alternative, may I suggest at least a starting point for discussion and exploration which may be found in the area of fractal science/mathematics. And a good place to focus the beginning of any theoretical discourse, in my opinion would be the work of, amoung others, Mandelbrot and the set named after him, the Mandelbrot Set. I suggest this because it mathematically the most relevant area of a field and is largely avoided by the popular culture's interest in fractals which is largely forcused on aesthetical beauty, particularly popular with the psychedelic subculture which I believe has a place and time to be investigated as a part of the whole discussion, but maybe for now should not be a point of focus in fear of contaminating a sterile discussion with with larger philosophically arguments about what is reality, due to the psychedelic substance insights of those schools. To incorporate any talk of altered states of consciousness, may be counter productive at this time. Hence my Mandelbrot suggestion achieves the mathematical parameters I believe are the best for theoretical mathematical support and cancels out the annoying noise that the fractal science field makes due to its attractiveness to non mainstream pop culture. The Mandelbrot set is intriguing, not only because of the almost mindblowing graphical capability of AI, for as the Mandelbrot set seen by AI and then visualised for us to see, is nothing short of unbelievably beautiful. It also has an ability to provoke inner hought and discourse without one knowing the subject, topic or reason for the quiet peaceful internal discourse it inspires. I mention this, not because it can directly be incorporated in the radical discussion, but experiencing the astonishlng complexity if its beauty and the way it continues infinitely (or rather as long as it continues to be observed) because if the very self contained nature of the Mandelbrot set. After all, the mandelbrit set is simply a set of numbers, that when placed in the equation, do not spiral out into infinity. The equation value is always >0 or <2. So what as I see as irony, as the set was designed to avoid infinity in a sense, what it actually does is provide us with the best possible conceptualisation, in practice and theory, of a model demonstrating infinity. Even more bizarre is that the technology had only recently become available to show us visually by AI graphing. I'm not sure without the visual stimulus, could we have seen how beautifully fractal science demonstrates its potential unravelling existential and theoretical mysteries. I believe it lends itself perfectly to my proposed theory. I think so because infinity is difficult for the human mind to grasp, some may say impossible. What is even more difficult for our minds to grasp is infinity of reducted values. Basically, if infinity can exist in an expanding sense, then it is not a stretch of conceptualisation to think it can infinitely get smaller. This breaks no rules of science. Searching for the building block of the universe has been crusade of quantum physicists dating back to the creation of the scientific theory. Much money and effort has been spent in search for smaller and smaller still subatomic particles. What they do is fractal science in its purest form, yet like with the study of Theoretical Astrophysics, quantum science theory is its self hampered by the concept if zero as a number, in my opinion. Even doing the work of factually reducing matter, they are blinded to its possible futility, should fractal reduction does forever decend in to fractal infinity or -ve infinity. For if that is the case, maybe quantum theory is in fact mankind's first exploration, albeit unknowingly, into what may well be a black hole. That is for a later discussion but certainly worth bringing to the attention for the purposes of this discussion. So if we can accept that -ve infinity is as equally viable and logical as +ve infinity, what room in this discussion is left for the inclusion of zero? 1/r = 1/0 = infinity is a useless equation in understanding black holes. To say 1/r approaches infinity as r becomes closer to 0, is a much better way of phrasing it. It is in essence exactly what I refer to +be and -ve infinity and immensely helpful in understanding black holes, there's no equation that mathematics can put forward it's anywhere near as helpful because mathematics has to use zero and by its own rules and attempt to explain a fractal infinity is undefined. I believe this leaves no room for zero in the same conversation as infinity. I am not suggesting zero should be stricken from mathematics. However I am suggesting that mathematics use of zero may, invalidate is ongoing use as an effective tool for measurement and communication, when the subject is beyond our ability to comprehend. Few people will argue that our 6 senses are significantly lacking the capacity to comprehend cosmological dynamics. Mathematics nothing more than an application of our 6 senses, to make sense of the chaos occurring all around us. Over hundreds and thousands of years, this is the best we have been able to do in terms of calculation and accurate prediction of future occurances. Even the concept of zero is less than 1000 years old. The Romans saw no use in incorporating it into their model, and to this day we wonder at their and other ancient civilisations ability for astonishing accuracy in measurement and prediction. Look at all they, the Egyptians and others managed without using zero in a single calculation. We can also break this down out of our conscious paradigm into nature. Numbers do not exist in nature (that includes the universe). It begs the question of do numbers really exist? Are numbers no more than part of our delusional reality? Who knows, but one thing is for sure, zero certainly doesn't exist anywhere outside of our consciousness. Not even in our own very bodies. How bodies clearly hold a knowledge that hasn't seemed to be passed over to our conscious, aware selves. Even on the smallest scale, without any intervention or guidance from any sort of intelligence, within our cellular membranes. Complex calculations are constantly being carried out. Consider cellular replication for example. In order for a cell to divide successfully, there must be a correct allocation of resources, let's just say primarily energy distribution for the sake of brevity. To split a cell but calculate the energy necessary to simply cary put the force of splitting. It must also calculate how much energy needs to be transfered to the new cell. This calculation must include how much energy for it take to replicate all cellular matter, how much energy is required for both cells to recover from the trauma, and how much energy on top of that, the new cell will require to become mature and begin its own replication. There are multiple complex calculations to be made there, and they then must be combined in to an overall and more complicated calculation again. All of this is done without intelligence and without using numbers ie mathematics. This same process can be observed all the way back to the very first beginning of not just life, but biochemistry in general. So I hope this demonstrates that the universe doesn't exist numerically. There are no rules in the universe. We created rules for our sciences, because if we didn't follow them the sciences would fail at unacceptable percentage of predictions. So we make rules to overcome the shortcomings while waiting for future technologies or fixes. Mathematics and sciences are little more than a carefully ordered tapestry of rules, with too many exeptions for too many rules. We create rules and ideas to assist the conteived & malfunctioning intangible thing to not have to go to all the trouble of finding something that works better. We are just littered with examples through every field. Like 'zero', or Pi, or "bimdas" (brackets, indicies, multiply, division, addition and subtraction. I find this a good example, for not following this exact order of calculations, a correct answer to equation will nev a result) and thousands of others. No rules exist in nature, it appears to be that it just is, always will be and always has been. So in summary, given our restrictions on trying to understand the universe, namely intelligence, our 6 limited senses, our arrogance and our mortality, should we narrow the pursuits our restrictions can make us comfortable with? Thisbwilk lead us nowhere. By abandoning zero as the only accepted scientific approach to the universe, and allowing science to have multiple validating throeries for what is the same problem. The scientific community abhors divergence from dogma and academics are held to ransom with funding or being published, if their ideas are not with acceptable parameters. But for the sake of this conversation, can we discuss the merits of looking at the big bang without reference to nothing ie zero, but instead +ve and -ve infinity. |
2024.05.22 00:53 Icy5856 Insurance coverage date rolled back
This happend almost 5 years ago, and unfortunately I am only now asking about. I had employer provided health insurance in 2019, but had to be put on medical leave. Because of that I was required to manually pay the company the amount for insurance via money order to upkeep the insurance. Once of the months (May?) I missed the due date by a few days, but they money was taken and after returning to work money continued to be taken from my paycheck.
Months later (October?) I find out that because I was late on that payment, the company/ insurance rolled back the valid coverage date to earlier in may. And a month later I was refunded the money taken put of my checks. Because of that roll back, the dr I was seeing sent me numerous bills of the time from may until that point.
The seperate bills were confusing and I should've questioned them more. But between not being in a good spot mentally and in life, plus the stress of playing phone tag with the billing department and their voicemail and never being able to contact them easily I didn't follow up like I should have.
The following year that office ended up selling the listed debt to a collections company. And now I'm wondering if anything can be done, or if it's been so long there's no point? Im not sure if what happend is standard practice, or if its just something really shady/unfortunate that happened. I was a much younger adult back then with a lot less experience/backbone. I'm trying to tie up loose ends and make a plan to my future that I didn't have before.
I live in Florida and work in florida, but the work headquarters/insurance was based in Idaho at the time if that effects anything?

Months later (October?) I find out that because I was late on that payment, the company/ insurance rolled back the valid coverage date to earlier in may. And a month later I was refunded the money taken put of my checks. Because of that roll back, the dr I was seeing sent me numerous bills of the time from may until that point.

2024.05.22 00:47 applejacklover97 SLC trans folks- are you having surgery and needing a caregiver?
Hi, I’m a trans/non-binary person here in SLC too. My partner and I are both post-DI mastectomy for gender affirming top surgery. We had each other to support ourselves through surgery, however we know this is a very privileged position.
Recently, I have been made aware that such organizations exist where trans people volunteer to care for other trans people after surgery. See: T4T Caregiving As a former EMT and current medical assistant and former top-surgery-patient, I think I would be perfect for this. The guy who runs T4T Caregiving was so kind to talk to me here in Reddit chats and recommended reaching out to groups in the area.
I saw someone in another city post that lack of caregiver is the only reason they had not pursued surgery, and that seems like a shame given my quality of life increase postsurgically. I am wondering if that is the case in SLC as well.
I am background checked and certified by the Utah State Courts for different advocacy work, and I’ve been a personal care attendant and volunteer medical driver in addition to the medical field work above.
The U of U transgender medicine patient coordinator, Jess, already has my contact information and has permission to give it out to any trans people who can’t afford paid caregiving
Reach out if you need a hand to hold, meals made, your place tidied, your pets cared for, someone to sit in the hospital lobby, dealing with your drains if you’re squeamish, etc.

2024.05.22 00:41 Seeking_Pi_Solutions [CA] Retaliation Mediation/EEOC Question
Hey all,
Im using a throwaway account for privacy sake.
To start, I am no longer employed with the company I am seeking to mediate/file an EEOC complaint against.
An incident occurred in December of 2021 that left me being harrased and targeted by a member on the executive team. Many other executive members tried silencing him during this meeting, and ultimately his assistant followed me to my car as I was crying after this all took place. The information I provided during this situation outlined the failure of a contract that his other company signed with our company. (Side note- he worked for the company I worked for AND had a few other companies that he would align with the company I worked for as contracting work.)
After this situation he cut off all work communication with me even though we had many things on our project that were dependent on our mutual communication. He then hired people and put them in places to try and undercut the compliance and data management that my job was responsible for upholding and maintaining.
Fast forward to Summer of 2022. He restructured my department and put people in place that left the company vulnerable to neglect of compliance for a major project. He worked to have me work off-site of said project to ensure that I wouldn't be able to communicate to the compliance and executive teams about the cornerns with the project.
At this point I was experiencing many mental and physical issues all stemming from the stress and unhealthy working environment. My doctor took me out on medical leave in the Summer of 2022 and during my medical leave I was sent "separation documents" that had a small sum of money contingent on me signing the documents. I have yet to sign these documents that were initially sent to me in March of 2023. I was told that the department and project I was managing was all being laid off. For what its worth I can still look up and see that the company I worked for owns licences for the project I was involved in. I suspect that they leased this project out to a 3rd party company to side step the company being involved with it any longer.
I have contacted many attorneys and have been told that I have a case. I put together a 72 page document outlining my tenure with the company with pictures and descriptions of the unhealthy working environment as well as the harassment and retaliation that took place. I was not able to afford 2 of the attorneys that would take on my case, and the one that could take me on contingency told me 4 months later that his team hadn't filed any EEOC or CCRD complaints on my behalf and that he did not have the bandwidth to take my case at this time.
My questions are as follows;

My questions are as follows;
- How can I word an email to the HLegal team of said company that would allow me to mediate a higher "severance/separation payout"? I don't intend on trying to take them for much, mostly just the cost of the mental health treatments I had to undergo due to the situation.
- Should I continue with filing a complaint to the EEOC and CCRD all while pursuing medation?
- Can I leverage the contents of my 72 page document during mediation or should I keep that private so they don't end up gaining access to it? The contents detail many illegal things the company had done over the past 7 years, all of which I don't believe are within the statute of limitations anymore to sue over.
2024.05.22 00:40 sexy_pilus Why something feel off with controller much more than beta test?
I’m on PS5, it feels clunky and it’s drifting with all my three controllers including one DualSense edge.
This is ridiculous, and I figured out why by using my remote play app on my iPad. The game will continuously execute last signal from both left and right sticks until you have a new one. Then it’s easier to get drifting than other games with a lower dead zone compared to others. I have no problem with minimal dead zone in many games but this is unacceptable. The aim assist is also a huge part. It’s unnatural, but I don’t want to talk about this currently.
Btw the setting for auto rotation of mini map is still bugged since beta. If you set as on then it’s off, and vice versa. In addition, you can enter practice range by starting the game from activity on main screen of PS5, and I tested all those things in it.

Non-traditional CA resident applicant. Graduated from UCSB in 2022. Was looking to apply to PA school but switched to dental after completing my 1000 hours as an EMT. Couldn't get my materials in order to apply last cycle so I am applying as early as possible this cycle.
GPA: 3.7
DAT: AA-23 TS-24 BIO-24 GC-24 OC-24 PAT-22 QR-20 RC-21
CA resident
Major: Biology
Have C's and B's in some science courses freshman year but show upward trend.
Shadowing experience:
Extracurricular
Deans Honors List for 5 quarters
LOR: 2 not strong science professors. Didn't get to know them so feel lucky they even agreed to write one. 2-3 Dentists which will be strong.
Misc: Mother had medical problems so I had to work to help pay the bills and take care of her for a little less than a year.
Not sure what schools to apply to other than CA schools and Roseman. Don't want to go to midwest but open to pretty much anywhere else. Not applying to NYU due to price.
LMK if you want any other info.

2024.05.22 00:34 TheCupcakeofEmotions I think I might have fibromyalgia, I wanna know how to beat proceed/advocate for myself
I'm laying on my couch with extreme neck and head pain, I kinda feel like I need answers at this point. Like this is my rock bottom.
A bit of history: I'm AFAB and 25 years old. As long as I can remember the joints in my legs have hurt. As a kid I was told it was growing pains, that I'd grow outta it. Never did, to this day I'll still experience it. It seems like the cold and being in uncomfortable positions brings it on. I can't sit criss cross for more than 5 minutes before the pain becomes too much. Kneeling is a nightmare if I'm not on something to cushion them. At some point it began in my arms as well. Shoulders, elbows, wrists, and fingers. I get pain from itching my head because of having to hold them up. In recent years my neck has started hurting and it'll give me an entire headache. Those are the worst. And when performing oral my jaw hurts very quickly (sorry for the TMI just trying to paint a picture of all I experienced). I'm at a point I gotta pop 1000mg of ibuprofen or acetaminophen to feel relief. Getting a job where I sit, proper footwear, and a high quality mattress have helped but I don't feel "cured." At one point around 18-19 I brought it up with my PCP and we did some blood tests. Everything came back normal and I didn't have the time, energy, or financial means to look into it further. Well now I have all of those things, but I still feel afraid? 2023 was the year of medical stuff for me and I was ready to be done with it. However now the pain has been flaring up again and I have to decide how I wanna proceed. I guess I just wanna know what to try, what to look out for, what I should be pushing for in doctor visits. Any practical advice would be appreciated.

2024.05.22 00:28 PerplexedPorcupine LAC/LPC acquiring in NJ?
Hi I’m a newly graduated school counselor. I have graduated with 51 credits but I’m working on getting to 60 credits through my SAC program in addition to what I’ve already earned (Student assistance coordinator role). It is a CACREP accredited program. I also will be sitting the National Counseling Exam (NCE) this summer.
I am feeling nervous that it will be hard for me to find a role that supports getting an LAC role or finding supervision or even pursuing anything that isn’t school counseling with my masters degree. I just need more reassurance. My program said that even though it is school counseling, I am a certified counselor and I will be okay even though my degree does not have clinical mental health on it if I wanted to go into private practice or community mental health.
Is there anyone that can tell me about their experience and what steps I should take? Is my worrying validated or will I be fine?
