Age: 40 Sex: Male Height: 6'2 Weight: 275lbs Hey docs, My girlfriend's father is currently in the hospital for "suspected" coronavirus. He's been sick for just over a week now and has been drastically losing the battle. He's a healthy 40s non-smoker with no known underlying health conditions. He is

I posted here last week, I think, about my mom (I got her age wrong but everything else was as follows: 62f, 5”2, 125 lb, colon cancer dx) She was diagnosed with colon cancer, had one round of chemo and she obviously became septic in the last week of her life. I noticed something was seriously off w

https://imgur.com/a/LbPqpZp I have a history of chronic migraines. Got my first one at age nine, started daily meds at 15, and they’ve been chronic for about 9 years. I’ve been working with my current neurologist for roughly six years and they ARE getting better, but I’m still at about a 60 on the M

Wanted to share an interesting little thing that happened to me today. Rant to follow. A lesson in evaluating OTC products: Patient came to pick up her insulin with concerns of something she noticed recently.

Are you guys giving the dexamethasone injectable solution orally in your facility? Primarily in the ER? We do this all the time for peds and adults in our ER. We had a question come up about it whether or not to give it to kids under 3 due to benzoyl alcohol. Has anyone encountered this for kids thi

Hi all! My pharmacy has been having some issues with **drugs that must be dispensed in the original container**. A bottle of **Viread®** got opened when my B tech decided she was going to pour 3 bottles into 1 large bottle. These have a desiccant inside and techs should be trained to just

Hi everyone -- To anyone reading this at 3AM in the morning, sobbing silently to not wake up your roommates in your tiny NYC apartment while you are in inexplicable, all-absorbing, stinging, fiery vaginal pain, please put your phone down, and breathe. It may not seem like it now, but you are stronge

Posting my story here in case it might help even one person going through what I was going through. I've been dealing with a chronically itchy inner vulva for about the past two years. It started off slow and wasn't so bad, so I didn't give it too much thought for a long time. Over time it got worse

Since November of last year, I have had what I think is a yeast infection. I am a teenager currently, and I have little experience with these kinds of things. My mom has been helping me with it, but she hasn’t experienced what I am going through right now, so it feels like we’re trying whatever we f

TL;DR: After 4 months, The efficacy of Humira seems to have bottomed out for me. My dermatologist has offered to help me switch biologics, or for me to wait and see what my new rheumatologist thinks at my first appointment in September. Not exactly sure what to do. Wondering if anyone else has expe

I was given Nystatin/Triamcinolone Acetonide 100000unit/g-0.1% Topical Ointment for vulvar and anal itching. So far I’ve had more anal irritation and itching since starting it. I am allergic to things in cream but the ointment is cleared by my allergist. Anyone have similar experience?

I’m(24F) constantly itchy & irritated. I’m extremely depressed & my self esteem has been reaching lows that I didn’t know were possible. I’m so tired of missing out on my life because of this. If anyone has been through something similar & made it out on the otherside with their sanity &
