When people write about this they're going to write about it like the victorian era and people will be like "yeah they just didn't care about kids back then I guess."

I am a medically lucky (in the base definition of luck) person so of course as a child I had a very bad reaction to a vaccine and ended up covered in giant welts that made it so I couldn't walk that took forever to heal and they had to make a special exception to allow me into school since I had to wait an extra year to get more vaccines, which ended up being moot since I missed 3/4 of the school year anyway due to an unrelated medical condition and had to re-take kindergarten. There was a doctor who thought I should not even get the shots at all because mumps and measles at the time seemed well on the path to being gone.

Considering that mumps and measles had a big return in the 00s, I'm really glad I still eventually got my shots.

Video that says oxygen meters are less effective for black and Hispanic people which may contribute to their higher rate of COVID.

also tfw the level of blood oxygen you are supposed to go to the hospital for is higher than your normal rate.

So I got my MRI, had to take off my Vflex and they had no surgical so I raw dogged it. Then apparently they messed up my IV so they injected the contrast into not a vein and it burned like the dickens. I mashed the alert button but the MRI tech said that was normal and it took me 5 minutes to convince them it was not normal because I�ve had it before. They went and asked the radiologist and all of a sudden there�s several new unmasked people in the room telling me to sign some document and that this happens sometimes just ice it down when you get home. They re-IV the other arm and complete the MRI and glad to get out of the maskless hellhole.

Few things have made me feel worse of the various medical hoops I've had to jump through as contrast for a CT scan. I don't know if it's the same thing as what you had but the burning sucks and then like my body had a weird fear response to it that just broke my brain for a few hours. I was fine after like four hours and a nap but that was a bad experience. I can't imagine how much worse it would have been if coupled with an MRI instead of a CT scan because at least with a CT scan you're not completely encased.

Glad you seem to be okay through it.

E: Funny how nostalgia works though because my brain has definitely overwritten what my actual MRI was to that time I chilled out in a sensory deprivation chamber while I listened to some dude's Beach House playlist.

lol they helpfully let me know they use much more contrast for a CT than an MRI so I should be glad it wasn�t a CT

I�ve had a bunch of both and never noticed the difference just a warm feeling and like I was pussing myself.

the worst thing I�ve ever had done is a nuclear stress test. nothing can describe the �this is wrong� feeling it gives you

Ah! That makes sense. Yeah nuclear stress tests just seem not cool, I hopefully don't ever need to take one of those. And yeah that is kind of the weirdest part is I've had several other contrast tests and it was fine. It just got me last time.

A year or so ago the thread was big on comparisons between Corsi-Rosenthal boxes and commercial air purifiers and the Corsi-Rosenthal boxes generally did as well or better.

Is that limited to covid sized particles though? And I'm assuming quality of construction is big in this too.

In a recent in-my-apartment test the C-R box was just blowing the burnt vegetable oil smell around and around all night that my extremely overpriced commercial purifier zapped in ten minutes when I finally moved it into the living room. Maybe C-Rs are not meant to stop VOC though? Or maybe my construction just sucked?

Yet metformin can gently caress your poo poo up badly, and the dosing can be tricky so it's definitely the type of thing to work with a doctor with.

Eye doctor update: not wearing a mask this time.

My Lyft Drive was though. Dude saw me also in a mask and went on rant about COVID that would have made this thread proud. Then he started talking about some congresspeople who got caught smoking and groping each other or something said the word "titty" probably ten times in 30 seconds.

All in all I hope he used the profits of the ride to buy an account.

The quality of my doctor unfortunately is purely the roulette of which resident I end up getting. In a 10-15 minute appointment, the amount of time they actually address the medical condition that is most seriously threatening my life is about a minute. In a way I kind of understand because there isn't a ton they can do about it but it makes the rest of the titanic deck chair shuffling more than a bit frustrating.

as far as I know, I've never had Covid. I've never tested positive for it anyway.

for 2 months now I've been having some issues with all my sinuses and lungs and everything else connected.
Dr said my x ray was negative for everything except my lungs were extremely swollen and gave me 5 prescriptions, including a heavy duty steroid. I think the steroid made everything worse.
No antibiotics, nothing like that, just all things to control my sinus and pathway issues.

Ive never had a fever -- nothing.

It keeps coming and going but its hitting me pretty hard again tonight.
And I keep reading stories about a concerning "unexplained" lung infection that causes inflation and I'm just lmao.
I don't even have a hard time breathing but something is very wrong and its tiring. '

I thought I was pretty safe but something got me.

From my own experience, there has been a pretty long standing conflict between my primary care physician and my pulmonologist about steroids, with the primary care thinking it was a pretty good idea, but the pulmonologist being against it, because it can exasperate issues in non-COPD lungs, although it does take awhile to happen apparently. Now personally I usually felt like I was breathing better while taking it, but the results in the breathing tube don't bare that out so it must just be psychosomatic. What has actual demonstrable effect is rescue inhalers and alleregy meds (except benadryl which I'm not supposed to take unless I get hit up by a bee)

But yeah when your lungs start to go it's really scary and there are so many things it could be, especially if you're younger than 50 because a lot of doctors playbook is for dealing with lung issues in older patients. If you can, try to get in to see a pulmonologist. But even after doing that, It took YEARS for me to get a diagnosis and it ended up coming from some surgeon who I've never met, in the Atlanta Mayo clinic for whom my file finally came across his desk, sent by a heart specialist that the pulmonologist sent me to at a cancer hospital. It may in fact be in fact you got long covid it could be something else entirely but don't give up until you get some sort of treatment that makes breathing easier for you.

Sorry this is about rambly since I've never really formulated thoughts on it all but I think my point is that they will eventually figure out what's wrong, just don't give up on yourself and don't take "eh I dunno" as a response.

Well the original plan when I was told they had to replace the electrical box was to just leave as soon as they got there for the five hours they said they would be working on it, and turn my cube and overpriced Dyson purifier on for an hour before coming home. I had a few things go wrong and then they had a few things go wrong and then I had a job interview this morning and planned to come back and then dip for the day before they did the work. Well they did the work while I was at the interview. And of course my mask was in the car. Hopefully I didn�t get got the two minutes I was in the apartment before leaving. When I turned the Dyson on it was like AIR QUALITY: HORRIBLE (I imagine disturbing the 50 year old electrical panel probably earthed some poo poo up) so even if Covid didn�t exist as a bad lungs person still dipping was probably the best plan.
