The rest of the family has started throwing up, so at least he’s stable
I'm 17 and my mom is 43. She's not obese or diabetic and is only a little overweight, but she recently lost a lot from not eating enough. She has dangerously low vitamin D levels and for some reason got Ozempic before getting her vitamin D. She works as a charge nurse so I think she convinced a do

Am I too liberal with my license to just ch
One of my newer techs was having problems with a drug and it really wasn't cooperating with her. I asked her what drug it was and it was methocarbamol. I laughed and said "guess it just doesn't want you to relax" Unfortunately the technician was new and didn't know what it was for and didn't under
