Allstone posted:Someone told me there are certain industries that disqualify you from taking an MRI, just due to the ambient level of metal fragments embedding into you as a day-to-day occurence. If safety measures aren't mandated and enforced, it's a pretty safe bet that they aren't generally being followed. lol this is completely false. The only way I'm not scanning you is if you were a welder/steel worker and were such a loving dumb rear end in a top hat you didn't wear eye protection and got poo poo in your eye and then also never got it removed. We'll do an xray to check if we don't trust it. The idea of a bunch of microfragments being a contraindication is nonsense and not a real thing. Anything this small wouldn't penetrate past your skin and would get poo poo out over time as your skin molts. Larger fragments capable of penetrating would be incredibly obvious and even then, depending on location, are more of a problem regarding artifact on images than any safety concerns.

It's been 2 years and the vaccines aren't effective enough in pediatric doses and too dangerous to give in effective adult does in pediatric patients who will have out of control immune response. You're better off just trying to bribe the minimum wage worker at walgreens to just give you a syringe than waiting for under 5 vaccines to ever get approved.

You'd have a bad loving time once you crossed maybe the 50-100 gauss field line. Assuming your metal was ferromagnetic.

love how we still let insurance companies act as the final arbiter of what's medically necessary instead of, you know, doctors hmm your doc prescribed drug x? nah, we'll only let you have cheaper, shittier drugs y or z, try those first and get back to us oh your doctor says you need a blood clotting test? well I'm a bean-counter at Cigna with no medical degree and I say you don't, so you're not getting one lol

honestly a bit skeptical on this, though I'm seeing more chatter about it as we jump into the next wave https://twitter.com/cjmandell/status/1510027496825233411?t=VmkxF0srYNLdeLgDQ9crrw&s=19 skeptical because of responses like this  your kid also isn't wearing a mask for every meal, snack, drink of water, recess, and likely at no other time either since no one else is so he's flat out lying to you to avoid being made fun of by the entire rest of the school students and staff!!!

It’s still on the mri questionnaire as recently as like 2 years ago, you don’t have any docs that are super conservative w this stuff?

Like yes it would be better and less likely your kid pops positive if everyone wore N95s at school but if I took my N95 off in the grocery store for 30 minutes and then complained the mask didn't work

We know the n95s work and I feel safer at work now because I don't take it off. I leave my water bottle in the car and don't bring lunch. Down 30 pounds!

The BA.2 wave predicted to start right about now. My partner and coworkers refusing to even think about returning to caution. Air travel plans coming up. And the college kids have brought back their annual neighborhood-wide block party tradition. All signs point to my finally getting the 'vid. I wish I was delusional like the idiots who still believe "Well it's good to catch it, after that you're immune forever, like chicken pox." Then I'd have something to look forward to. Oh well.

well i just learned i have a "at minimum moderately narrowed" major artery in my heart so wish me luck dodging this next wave (and getting my procedure done before the hospitals are overrun) (i'm active and otherwise healthy, and have been on statins as a precaution since i was 21 since my dad had his first heart attack at like 30, so hopefully it's been caught early enough for a good intervention, and my new case of 9210s will come in handy until i can get in somewhere) Petey has issued a correction as of 21:09 on Apr 2, 2022 |

It’s not like most people are doing a fit test every day or wearing eye protection. If you’re surrounded by maskless rona fountains you’re running a higher risk of getting unlucky.

good great wonderful fantastic, I was a huge loving idiot yesterday and let my guard down by letting a friend come over for an hour last night with his daughter to hang and he texted me a bit ago saying he tested positive. another friend was 10 minutes away from coming over with HIS kid as well (he and I are our bubble in that he stays home all the time too) and his kiddo was heartbroken since we had plans to till up some raised beds and plant some spring seeds. I'm just.. so done with trusting others. so done. people are poo poo. with all that in mind, how long after potential exposure should I test? this was about 7 pm last night, it's 1:30 pm now and I just took a rapid test. should I wait a couple days?

I assume they are non ferromagnetic but apparently they can produce a weak magnetism? I mean I know its fine given they slapped me in a 3 tesla coil hours after surgery but I always wondered
