Ever since the android update sometime within the last 10 days, the fitbit doesn't sync reliably with my android phone.. It is so weird... when I tell it to manually sync, the data shows up on the phone for a split second then it disappears and shows everything as 0... but then once in a while like every 2 to 3 days it does manage to sync... So for example I can see my data from 2 days ago but nothing beyond that...

Been trying to sync via fitbit connect on windows laptop but the damn app keeps saying internet connection not found..

I am so bloody sick and tired of this. On my third device within 12 months from purchase.. irregular sync on android... missed notifications on several androi

For me it would be when I got to see a laster coagualtion for twin-twin transfusion syndrome. The coolest part was how they put the fetoscope/nintendoscope into the uterus and you could freaking see the growing fetuses. It felt so surreal to see gelatinous transparent flesh and you could see all the vasculature in the fetuses and some parts of their bones. You could even see the entire dorsal arch in the foot of one of the fetuses. It felt so surreal to think that I was that alien looking fetus at one point of time.

Was watching "Jurassic Park: The Lost World" on TV last week and I noticed that the scene where they were transporting the T-rex to the harbour had this dialogue which contained some of the most accurate "tv medicine" scene that i've seen. The T-rex which was sedated and being transported suddenly gets up and starts fucking shit up. The dino vet lady/guy gets questioned as to why t-rex is awake and tells the ven to hit the dino with more carfentanil to sedate it. The vet person then reponds yea we hit it with 10mg of it and the t-rex started breathing slower and slower and so we had to give some naltrexone. Which caused the t-rex to wake up and start fucking shit up and them being unable to

I want to hear about the doctors who you guys look up to or look at to get inspired to be a better doctor or teacher. It can be anyone, past or present. Just tell me about it.

As for me, I really look up to a particular cardiologist in my hospital. Young doctor, around 35. He studied from an average medical college for his medicine degree and then went on to score rank 2 in a national exam that enabled him to do residency at the best hospital in the country. He then went on to score rank 1 in a exam that is used to select candidates for fellowship. This by itself is very inspiring as it is unheard of for a student from the college he studied from to do well in the national exams. (it would

Just out of curiosity and for fun.

The lowest I have ever seen was 2.1 gm/dL in a lady of about 55 years of age with aplastic anemia who had missed a few of her regular transfusion appointments. She was shockingly healthy given her low Hb levels. She was admitted with a chief complaint of cough with sputum and much to my shock she did not complain of any severe fatigue etc. Only had loud heart sounds and a ejection systolic murmur from hyperdynamic circulation. No other cvs findings.

According to one of my professors, the lowest he had ever seen was around 1.7 or 1.8 gm/dL in a lady with IDA and menorrhaiga.

Anyways, what are some of the lowest Hb values that you've come across?

Just curious to find out if withholding high conc oxygen is a theoretical precaution .

Most of the professors I've talked to in the pulmonary department do not seem to practise this or believe in it yet they do teach it to us but with the disclaimer rhat it may only be a theoretical phenomenon.

Has anyone seen this is their practise ?

r/Snus•

Hi all,

I tried to quit smoking through the use of swedish snus at the start of this year. While it did help me satiate the cravings for smoking, I found that I still went back to smoking after my snus ran out. I guess with smoking, its not just about the nicotine. It has a lot to do with the mannerisms such as holding a cigarette, flicking the ash, blowing smoke out etc..

Anyways, my point is that using snus raised my nicotine tolerance tremendously. When I went back to the same brand of smokes I used to smoke, I found that I could barely feel the nicotine.

I thought I would make this post to make people aware that snus delivers much much higher doses of nicotine and will make you feel m

Hi,

I was recently looking for a laptop that I had finally settled on getting. Upon enquiring at the local Samsung dealer here, I learnt that the price was almost 5000 rupees more than that on flipkart . Itwasproces at 605000 rupees on flipkart. However when I checked the price of the laptop on flipkart again a few days later, it was almost 67000 rupees... the reason being that there is now an offer on that laptop where purchasing it would get you 7000 rupees off on a Samsung galaxy tab 2. After looking around I found that infibeam has the same laptop at 62000 and with the monsoon offers, it will come down to 61000. Is it safe to buy from infibeam? I know that I can trust flipkart because I

New Vaper Question

hey guys,

so I used to smoke about half a pack of cigarettes a day for about the past two years. I then made a decision to try and find a safer alternative to consume nicotine as nicotine really helped me with studying etc but I didn't want to have the persistent cough associated with smoking. After researching a bit I settled on Swedish snus as e-cigs seemed too much of a hassle. while Swedish sinus has way lesser health risks when compared to smoking,it also has a wayyyyyyy stronger nicotine content. Far too strong actually.. But it killed any cravings for smoking and I managed to be smoke free for a bit. But off late, I ran out of my snus... and guess what, I switched back to smoking. it
