This is Biscuit by DytchDoc1972 in cats

[–]DytchDoc1972[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biscuit came to is Fathers Day 2021. It was unusually cool for Georgia weather and raining. She was soaking wet, cold, malnourished and scared. We took her in without hesitation and she has been the joy of our lives. I am a paramedic and my wife is a nurse and she is what keeps our spirits up after a hard and stressful shift. She is always doing something to make us laugh, cuddles up when we are feeling down and reminds me of my kids terrible twos every day. My daughters boyfriends cat is named Gravy…what are the chances?

I had a Seal Point Himalayan that lived to be 18. He had a stroke and I held him when he was euthanized…cried my eyes out..

Just got my first Camaro but.. I don’t know how to drive manual, what do I do? by ElvinSS in camaro

[–]DytchDoc1972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You actually bough a manual, having no clue how to drive one? You better get a little Civic to learn the basics in..a little too much car, especially if it is a V-8 to be a training car.

Get in an open parking lot and practice start/stop and work your way to hillside starts. Be easy on the clutch…don’t want to burn it out…you will smell it if it gets too hot. You will be good if you are careful. Have fun! Nothing like a straight shift to feel the real power of the car! I can’t give you paddle shift advice..never driven one

It’s 2.2 lbs /kg..I had to convert lbs to kg for drug dosage calculations before I retired from EMS as a medic. congratulations! Keep up the great work…that’s a big accomplishment! I lost 100 lbs from 8/21-8/22 and feel so much better…it’s amazing the difference..oh, and 10 waist sizes

Down 8kg after Diabetes diagnosis! by [deleted] in loseit

[–]DytchDoc1972 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Last October, my wife was admitted to ICU w a glucose 1.450 mg/.dl. She is blessed to be here. My kids called me, at work and told me that she had slurred speech and couldn’t stand. She has neglected her health for quite a while and didn’t want to hear anyone tell her that either. She found out the hard way just how sick she had become. She was in ICU for 6 days and has recovered. She is taking much better care of herself now.

The bad thing, she has her RN-BSN. I am a medic and have been worried for a while BUT…she wouldn’t listen to anyone about anything. I was on shift for 24 hrs when this happened. Wish I’d been home.

Cheat day? by 11DerRitter0029 in WeightLossAdvice

You better believe, I will not hold back on Thanksgiving. I actually just lost 100 lbs over the past year and have been maintaining well. One day a year to eat til I’m one bite short of gluttony isn’t gonna do much, besides make me sorry I ate so much w a belly ache.

Overweight with low heart rate by IWantToGetShitDone in loseit

[–]DytchDoc1972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there are no symptoms of hypotension with the heart rate, it’s ok, however if you get dizziness while standing, break out in a cold sweat, feel really faint w ringing in the ears and your vision seems to turn into static on an old TV w no reception…that is a MAJOR issue and needs to be addressed immediately
