Update: I received a text from the flight attendant on 19 April. The lady survived. TLDR: we saved woman’s life in the air. Airlines carry IVs and cardiac drugs. Teamwork is awesome. Yesterday I heard those words in my dream and woke up. The flight attendant repeated the phrase. I’m surprised to
TLDR: we saved woman’s life in the air. Airlines carry IVs and cardiac drugs. Teamwork is awesome. Yesterday I heard those words in my dream and woke up. The flight attendant repeated the phrase. I’m surprised to hear the sounds of fluid bubbling in the back of someone’s mouth, a familiar but alar
* **EDIT #2** * Thank you, everyone, for all your help, suggestions, experiences, and advice. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart, truly. I’ve been taking notes to ask her primary care physician on Tuesday as well as things to look/test for in the blood work she will have that day. **EDIT**
Two days ago, I lost one of my very best friends. I had known him since University and we kept up for the last 25 years. We even had a weekly gaming night for years and years and met with other friends every week. Life goes on and we all meet and marry our wives, have kids, move around for jobs and

Setting aside the problematic gross “white savior” narrative, I don’t think these are often very useful trips. The majority of the

So I've been on olmesartan for a week now and honestly, I'm kind of blown away by what happened. First, some context about me - I'm a total worrywart when it comes to health stuff. My cardiologist knows this about me. She's actually told me straight up that if I don't stop catastrophizing every symp
It's really impressive how Gemini can analyze health information. As I said in post [https://www.reddit.com/r/Bard/comments/1didl76/cool\_gemini\_in\_service\_of\_health/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Bard/comments/1didl76/cool_gemini_in_service_of_health/), I created spreadsheets containing data about
Hi everyone, I was recently diagnosed with FSGS and wanted to introduce myself to the community. I don’t have any specific questions, but I’d love to hear any advice or positive insights from others who’ve been through this. This adventure began in early January when routine tests showed I was spill
For context, I am a 27 y/o female, fit, with no family history of hypertension. Since November, my life has been put at a complete stand still since my blood pressure inexplicably began to rise. I am a elementary teacher, super active & energetic and an avid runner. Back in November, after a r
