I’ve been using Autosync for years with good results first with Drive and Dropbox and now Pcloud. Supports a lot of different cloud services though not Proton which is why I haven’t started using that yet.

Oh yeah, a lot of common causes need to be evaluated plus we need to assess if the person should be on blood thinners due to the risk for a clot in the heart that can travel to the brain. I’ve admitted quite a few patients for new onset Afib due to their underlying causes as we didn’t think they were good to go home. Admittedly most people would be fine and we can be too cautious due to legal liability and physician anxiety over bad outcomes but considering the possible consequences, it’s not a terrible thing to do that.

Afib, which commonly causes palpitations, should be seen in the ER if you can’t get in to your PCP that day. Could be caused by a lot of things and a work up is warranted including lab work, echo, etc if new.

If you in the US, you’re primary care doc’s office wil havel an after hours number to call if you’re not sure. Unfortunately you’ll likely be told to go to the ER if it’s heart related because we have to err on the side of caution since we can’t evaluate you very well over the phone. Urgent cares are hit or miss since they’re staffed mostly by mid levels who may or may not be well trained but they can handle sore throats/colds, simple cuts/infections/foreign objects, STD testing, etc. depending on their facilities. I’ve been to one without basic labs which is crazy. I’d suggest calling you doc’s office first to see if they have acute visit slots that day. A lot will.

I’m not sure, only ever used it with my PC. As for the touchpad, haven’t noticed not having it but I mostly play COD and older aRPGs.

I just got a 8BitDo pro 2 because every PlayStation controller for the last 4yrs has broken in less than 6 months and it’s great. Feels good, connects over Bluetooth, and has Hall effect joysticks that aren’t prone to drift, which was the Sony controller main issue. All for $50. I think I’m done with Sony controllers.

Just bought a couple of their 4oz coffees, thanks for the suggestion. The Gera Honey dark roast I have high hopes for since I hate light roasts but I don’t really understand what the fuck they’re taking about on their product pages. All I understood was dark roast so I’ll giveit a shot.

And on the total opposite side from the neo-African coffee roaster you suggested, Harrio has the hipsteriest hipster pictured on the Switch product page. Instantly made me hate the product with absolutely no basis for that opinion. Interesting dichotomy of suggestions, 9/10 would look at again.

Oof this is definitely wrong. A blood thinner is one of the most important things whether a patient is taking or not. It’s the nurses job to let the doctor know whether the patient is compliant not only for medical reasons but for documentation. That’s outside the argument about profit in healthcare in US, that’s basic medicine. What if that patient falls and hits their head? Do we need to know if they’re on s blood thinner? What if they’re hemoglobin starts dropping? What if they need a procedure? What tif their platelets start dropping? Etc, etc, etc.

Don’t be a dick and not do your job, that makes your coworkers miserable and puts people in danger especially in medicine. I agree with burlit being and issue and chronic understaffing but be an adult and quit or move positions if you don’t like it.

It’s not that CPR doesn’t work, it’s that outcomes after resuscitation usually aren’t great. The study doesn’t disclose ages or neurological outcomes post-rescuscitation so that limits my interpretation but quick rescue and quick CPR is key in those acute, single reason emergencies. That isn’t to say in an emergency situation you shouldn’t try especially since you don’t know that person’s wishes. There are good outcomes but usually for underlying healthy people who had one thing go wrong. Think the athlete who’s heart stops on the field for some reason.

I’ve admitted at least a thousand people into a hospital through the ER and I tell everyone that it’s not like on TV. If you’re older, sick, multiple chronic diseases, don’t take care of yourself, etc. the chances of any kind of quality of life after CPR is limited. Death is terrifying and I understand them wanting to try but it’s just not realistic a lot of the time. We need better deaths in the US and more in-depth end-of-life conversations with our patients. That should be starting in the PCP’s office. Trying to discuss that with a patient in the ER who’s already scared isn’t ideal. I’ve seen patients with do not resuscitate/do not intubate orders on file change their mind when they’re suffocating and panicking then once they’re more stable immediately change their mind back.

Gave Fallout 76 a shot again after trying it early in it’s release and quitting due the travesty it was (also because I was disappointed in Starfield). It’s good now, very similar feel to 4 though with some differences. It’s a Fallout game so not perfect but the feeling of endless possibilities you get when stepping out of the vault for the first time is classic Fallout.

I’d love to switch too since I use proton mail and their VPN but the auto sync option on Android using Pcloud and AutoSync is a necessity for me. If they can get added to AutoSync, that’d be great but not sure if it’s feasible. I’d switch instantly if it was.

If you ever want to go further, pathology as an MD or DO would be perfect. Sounds like you might work with them already. Med school is difficult, annoying, and expensive though.
