Let's say you roll up some joints, get in a really hot bath, drop 2 grams MDMA, shoot up with levemir and then novorapid and then start to chain smoke the joints while making sure the bath stays hot.. How much of the insulin would you need, and if you have enough, would it definitely kill you?
Sorry about the ignorance.

i had to look up the meds, but i see what you are doing here
>joints: vasodilation
>hot bath: vasodilation
>mdma: increased glucose uptake (vasoconstriction and increased body temp cancel each other out in my reckoning)
>levemir: artificial insulin (drops blood glucose levels)
>novorapid: more insulin (drops blood glucose levels)

yeah this is a combo of low blood pressure and critically low blood glucose levels, which will kill brain cells pretty quick. to be sure of death? idk... maybe 4-5x the recommended dose for levemir and novorapid (it is calculated based on patient weight), that with the other combos would put you in fatal zone for most people. seems like a pretty shit way to go though, you would probably have a massive headache and basically have a /del/-like sense of misery and doom as you slowly fry your brain. might as well do exit bag or something

Slitting the wrists could probably help the headache by advancing loss of consciousness.

lol if you slit your wrists (and actually lacerate an artery [bonus points for cutting down the length of the artery, thus making a tear in its muscular wall, rendering it considerably more difficult to clot and heal]) and keep them submerged, you will not clot, and it won't be too painful except for the cutting. no need for all the crazy insulin shit if you're going that route. why not throw in a toaster too lol

Hey there everybody, I don't post on this forum very often like I don't go to the doctors very often either. More of a lurker. But this is kind of serious, I got an ear infection recently, in my left ear, I think it's from the dirty ass phone that I use at work. It felt like swelling in my ear canal, I googled the symptoms and it said "Swimmers Ear" - Alright, fast forward a couple days, I went to a metal show lastnight, that might've done it. But there's fucking blood coming out of my goddamn ear, especially when I was blotting it with a tissue.
What the fuck is this?

Hey Guys. I'm turning here as a last resort, as my doctor tends to be a dick and isn't always the most helpful. I have Acid Reflux. It Refluxes into my mouth and lungs so badly that since February it's given me pneumonia on almost a monthly basis. I am prescribed antibiotics and it goes away - for a couple of weeks, and then the process of aspiring the stomach acid, getting asthma because of it, using ventolin and coughing up phlegm that tastes like what I ate the day before begins. This goes on until the pneumonia starts again. This condition I believe is known as Acid Reflux Aspiration Pnemonitis.

I'm on Rabeprazole (ppi), Zantac (h2), tums, gaviscon, and none of it even touches the issue or helps. I've been on antibiotics monthly since last october, and i'm just looking for anything that could help me or that I could bring up with my doctor, whether it's conventional medicine or natural.

I used to take omeprazole for my acid reflux and it cleared it up. Then I stopped drinking like a fish and I didn't need the omeprazole anymore. I've started drinking again now and my reflux is back, so I either need to quit drinking or get more omeprazole.

So I'm 28 and serving in the military. I've been looking into Pre Med programs at local schools (Nebraska), but I have a really bad academic history. I got my GED in 2007, and my time spent in community college immediately after that I ended with around 40 credits. I have dropped classes, failed classes, I think my overall GPA from there is a 2.7. I was taking transfer credits for a Computer Science major, but when I transferred to NWMSU I withdrew from the first semester and never returned. I feel like Psychology is my calling, but I wanted to be a psychiatrist to be involved in the side of medicinal psychoactives.

I'm scared that I am trying to do this too late. And maybe I don't have the grades. I would need about two years more coursework in a Pre Med program. I've also looked into post bac programs, but my understanding of that is that I need a degree first.

What's your question? You don't need a degree to go to medical school. A large portion of physicians finish their bachelor's (usually in chemistry, biology, or a specialist degreein those fields) to have a safety net should they not make it into a medical school.
The greatest factor for acceptance is MCAT/GRE scores, then your core GPA. They don't careif you got perfect grades in Spanish or Theater; can you tell a spleen from a thymus?

Do you want to be a pharmacologist, psychologist or a psychiatrist, or a computer dude? Sort your shit out BEFORE you start stressing on the pointless shit like being too old or wearing the wrong color underwear to the grocery store.

I want to be a psychiatrist. I would like to do talk therapy as well, but I've been told that psychiatrists are more for the prescribing of medicine than the talk therapy side of things. I was thinking a chemistry major with a psychology minor because I really like psychology. Or is it possible to have a psychology major and take the required science courses alongside it?

You can take whatever you want if you have the prerequisites and the money. I don't know how GI Bill works, but Federal financial aid cuts off for bachelor's degrees after a certain number of credit hours have accumulated, however, so you might run into that problem.

IME, psychiatrists do not do talk therapy. They prescribe meds and do electroshock. I'm sure some do talk therapy, but I think it's more common for a therapist to do that, because therapists are usually cheaper, and talk therapy sessions often last an hour. Very few insurance plans are going to pay a psychiatrist's rates for an hour.

2.7 is a shit GPA. You know that. You're going to need to get straight As from here on out, especially in your science courses, if you want to pursue medical school. Don't bother going back to school unless you can commit to making that happen.

28 is not too late. There is some discrimination against older applicants, but it's not a hard disqualifier.

I broke my right femur.

Initial pain I thought I'd just tore a muscle, wasn't till I was xrayd at the hospital they found a clead break just above the knee.

The pain I'd liken to getting your finger slammed in a door but the pain doesn't go away for like 2 months and every time you move it gets fresh.

Worse all the muscles around it get sore because of non use, my back is still tight a yea and a bit later.

Worse then the pain is laying in a bed pissing in a jar for a month till you can use a walking frame to kinda hop around. And the low mood/kinda depressive like symptoms you get from being in a room bedlocked for months with minimal interaction save your mom/carer/wife/kids/few mares that visit. Your whole life is over for a fee months.

All in all, wouldnotsuggest/10

And all the rehab work to get you leg back to functioning kinda the same as your other one.

Breaking a bone badly was the worst pain I had ever felt. I'd say it was about an 8 on scale from 1 to 10 where 1 is least painful and 10 is most painful. I very nearly passed out from it.

I have no idea how painful an elbow tattoo is, but I imagine that the range of sensations that go into breaking a bone will be larger, since there is actual heavy damage done to the bone and surrounding tissues. The overall sensation is probably worse from breaking a bone, even if the pain itself might be very bad from an elbow tattoo (I assume so from the way you pose the question itself).

When you fuck up shooting bad enough and don't properly care for an abscess and it wells up painfully when is it ok to attempt to drain it or to go get it drained if you're less junkie;ife and actually can afford to go to the doctor. Like do you need to wait till it comes to a head or can you just cut in early on when it begins getting red and hard?

Is there really nothing I can do but drain at this point, or is there some remedy like hot and cold compress that can save me from having to mutilate my arm because I really like them vein drugs and I am not taking care of myself well enough.

So.. one day these small water filled sacs appeared on my hand out of nowhere. Not even very itchy unless I touch it a lot. What could this be? It seemed to get a little worse , no redness just more bumps.. it's only affecting the one side of my hand . I don't think its serious?

Hello /med/

This year I subjected myself to a diet of 600 calories a day for three months and lost 42 pounds. This was obviously a stupid thing to do and now I'm suffering with the consequences.

I feel absolutely awful all over. My legs feel like lead weights. I'm constantly tired. I can't focus or concentrate on anything. I've developed insomnia and wake up every day at 4am no matter how tired I am and can't get back to sleep. I've completely lost my sex drive and can't even get an erection anymore. I feel depressed and suicidal.

I've been to my doctor and had full blood tests which show nothing is wrong with my blood count, iron levels, b12, electrolytes, etc. According to the blood tests I'm healthier than the last time I had a blood test in 2014. And yet I now feel absolutely awful.

Can anyone here explain what I've done to myself and how to fix it? I'm eating normally again at 2,000 calories a day of fruit, carbs, and meat. I take a multivitamin pill and drink plenty of water. I try to exercise moderately. I weigh 140 pounds with a height of 5 foot 7 inches.

Thanks for your time.

You'll rebound soon enough. It took me about 3-4 weeks. I'm like 5 8 and went from 194 to 150. Caffeine helps a lot but dark sodas pack the weight right back on. My knees and shit felt probably the worst. I also only slept like 2-3 hours. But I started to get more hyper and agile after about a month or maybe a little less. I lost the weight in about 2-3 months time.

You'll feel a lot better once you return to normal. I don't know the science behind it but I felt like ass after completing the diet and not really during. Once I started to maintain weight, I felt like shit with no appetite and just wanted to keep losing weight. Then I acclimated and all was well. Until I went back up to like 185 and did it all again lol. I honestly feel a lot more shitty at 170+ than I do at 140-150. I feel a lot more intense and quick physically and mentally at the lower weights. The fatter I am, the more sloth and depressed I get.

Don't worry, you'll be glad for it in a couple more weeks probably.

Ok, so I've gone through acne scars in the past, on my face.

I got glycolic acid and lemon peels that removed a lot of my skin, but healed up very nicely. It hurts and you will look bad for a few weeks, but it does wonders. I got rid of stuff that was even under my skin and super gross.

That being said, be very careful! Never get acid that's too strong, never do too much. Get a second opinion from someone else too, It may not be for you.

Anybody have any tips for having more energy and better mood throughout the day. I hate picking up a book and being so tired. I hate always avoiding people because I'm too tired and feel like a piece of garbage. I don't want to do anything with my day. I have trouble getting out of bed, keeping a job (socially I can't exist).
I'm not looking for anti-depressants. I want to change my lifestyle in order to feel better in these areas. So I want advice for that, preferably from people who have been there and gotten better. Here's what I do now.

-Exercise: I work out 3 days a week through weight lifting. Still relatively new at it. Going to try to pick it up to 6 days a week, adding a cardio day in between.
-Sleep: I don't sleep very well, and admittedly this is due to bad habits of internet and so forth. I'm going to start going to bed at 10pm and see where that gets me.
-Diet: I eat better than I did, more green things and so forth, but I still eat meat, milk, etc.
-Meditation: 5 days into the app Headspace. I'm going to continue with it.
-Network Spinal Analysis: it's a kind of massage, sort of. The idea is to trigger nerve in your body so that your body feels stuff and regains a natural sense of alignment. I've been hunched over for awhile. I've done this for about 2 months now, and my anxiety I think has gone considerably down. The anxiety I have now is more about knowing that I'm gonna be tired and feel like garbage, and because of that I'm going to be a drag to talk to, so I don't.

This is definitely ruining my life.
I had a bad childhood and I hate how these issues are still here at 24, I'm still miserable, and it fucking sucks. Like, there seems to be a 50 50 chance I'm gonna kill myself some day relatively soon. My social skills are pretty bad, but my avoidance is the worst problem. If I felt better it would be so, so much better. I realized last night that I have to decide to get better.. I've kind of been coasting, feeling too tired and shitty and dabbling, not keeping promises and standards to myself and so forth. I've been lazy, frankly. I've let myself slip for a long time.

So.. What else can I do to help me? I'm not happy at all, and I'd really appreciate any help. I don't want to be this person who is sad and alone anymore.

Go get some blood tests done OP. CRP, ESR as a minimum, they will tell if there's a high level of ongoing inflammation in your body that you should be concerned with. If they are out of range you need to think about all your symptoms and try and find the source of the inflammation with more blood tests.

Get a comprehensive metabolic panel done, full thyroid function tests and full hormone panel done too.

Howdy /med/. Like the subject says, my knees have seen better days. They haven't sustained any single severe trauma, just years of wear and tear from various sports and activities. I haven't been to a doctor about this so I'm guessing it's either my MCL's (that's where I feel the pain) or maybe my cartilage is starting to deteriorate. Also, the pain is far more pronounced on my right knee. It often stings a bit to bend it, especially if I've been active or standing for a long period.

Anyways, I'd like to know if there are some PT exercises you guys would recommend to strengthen/prehab my MCL before it gets any worse. Really anything helpful you can recommend would be appreciated. I'm trying to squat 400 and deadlift 500 and I can't be having something like a little knee pain getting in the way of that.

I have a strange lump or swollen area right at the front lower edge of my left ribcage, the area is about as large as my hand, it's not swollen enough to see with the naked eye but can clearly be felt while feeling around, it can be very slighty felt OVER the rib itself, but the main source of it seems to be under it.

It isn't particularly sore, but if i apply a little bit of pressure it hurts like a bitch. There's also a small spot that hurts a fuckton whenever i apply pressure in the little area between the 2 halves of my ribcage.

What is wrong with me, and should i be worried?
