Pain after unsuccessful insertion of a Venflon?
As above. The nurse put it on, but since it immediately hurt, she took it out. After an hour, it still hurts, even without moving the arm. Is this normal? How can you help yourself?
Could I have diabetes?
So, I've slowly realized that sometimes (for two minutes) I just can't think clearly. I get thoughts like, "I can only think two meters ahead" or "If a tree falls over, the school must be on fire." I then jumble everything up (e.g., units, people, names, terms, etc.). But I don't always have these thoughts….
Prefilled pen in the thigh?
Hey, I have to inject myself with one of these pre-filled pens every two weeks from now on. The instructions say to inject it into the abdomen or the thigh. Yesterday I did it in my thigh, on the top side. Many people say you should do it on the side, but in a YouTube…
Pain after anesthetic injection?
I went to the dentist yesterday. They cut off a piece of my gum because it kept hitting my teeth and hurt. Before that, they numbed certain areas of my mouth with an injection. Since then, I've had severe pain in those areas. Is this normal? Also, my gums on the sides, or on the…
3 month injection overdose?
My question is whether the 3-month injection is less healthy than the pill, since you take the pill every day and the 3-month injection only every 3 months. Therefore, my question is whether you're having an "overdose" and essentially injecting yourself with a hormone bomb. Does the injection work in such a way that you…
Sports bonus that improves the Abitur grade by 0.3 when applying for medical studies?
Hey, I recently saw a video where someone said he had a GPA of 1.4 (high school average) and then got a sports bonus because he'd done sports. He got a GPA of 0.3 (competitive sports), so his GPA was considered a GPA of 1.1 (high school average), and he was accepted and given a…
Is this a placebo effect or is it normal for aripiprazole to make me sedated?
I get an aripiprazole injection every four weeks, and it makes me feel somewhat relaxed. As if I'd just drunk some alcohol. Is this sedative effect normal, or am I imagining it? I used to take it in tablet form, but I didn't experience this slightly sedative effect.
How did you realize that you had diabetes?
I would be interested to know how you realized that you had diabetes before you received a definitive diagnosis from your doctor.
Extreme pain due to atlas displacement?
Hi, I've had severe shoulder and headaches for weeks now, and I can't understand it. I'm currently 15 weeks pregnant. I went to the doctor and physiotherapy several times. Nothing really helps, the worst pain is the one that starts under the head and goes up to the temple. The doctor injected “Traumeel” into my…
Afraid of blood sampling?
Hello, I've had an incredible fear of blood and needles for as long as I can remember, and now I absolutely have to get a blood test (which I want to do, but I just can't manage it), because my circulation has been getting worse since I started losing weight, and now I also have…
Does anesthesia hurt?
I'm at the doctor's office right now because my toenail is ingrown, and to treat it, they're going to numb it. Does the anesthesia hurt? I'm really scared, haha.
Where should I give the thrombosis injection?
Hi, I've been taking a Fragmin P injection (thrombosis injection) for some time now. For about 10 days. The area around my navel is practically punctured. They say you shouldn't use the same spot twice and you should keep a distance of at least 3cm between the other injection sites. My question is, can I…
