 | Horrible air quality in nyc. It’s midnight so I get it the customer don’t want to walk outside and stroll his ass for 100 feet to get food but wants to leave a 25 cent tip for a dasher. Sick human beings. I got up and went to get food on my own because I can’t afford a hefty tip right now. Turned on the app to see the fuckery that’s going on and it’s orders like this. Atleast during covid people were generous. submitted by deanwheelz to doordash [link] [comments] |

2023.06.07 19:17 cheeskiniss Child-Friendly dentist (not pediatric)
My son (5) has cavities in his molars. (Which is super disappointing because we tried so hard to be vigilant) He has cavities in all four molars. He had one fixed at the regular dentist with freezing. He did a great job but he was wiggling. I was outside the room and I heard everything. They did ask him to stop moving multiple times, but no tears, no fighting and they got the job done.
However; the dentist recommended a pediatric dentist. This seemed a bit excessive to me (They wanted to knock him out, which is standard, I guess.) After the consult, sending in all the estimates, etc. they are now telling me it would be at least a six month wait. They are booking into the new year.
Does anyone have experience with a dentist who knows how to work well with kids? But not a specific pediatric dentist, more about bedside manner?
Hoping for another alternative and would love to hear the experience of any other parents.
Thanks so much.

2023.06.07 08:33 Zestyclose-Wolf1220 Chronic tooth sensitivity, facial pain and headaches. Losing hope.
As the title says, I am currently dealing with sensitive teeth, facial pain and headaches. The pain and sensitivity vary and never seem to happen in the same area... although my front teeth seem to be the most sensitive. I have been dealing with this issue for almost two years now. So far, I have had the following:
Does anyone have any advice? Treatment options?
The constant sensitivity, facial pain, and headaches have really drastically changed my life and ability to work, mood, everything. I just want to wake up and make it through a day without sensitive teeth and headaches...
submitted by Zestyclose-Wolf1220 to askdentists [link] [comments]
- 1 tooth removed, tooth was cracked in 3 place apparently... I have not had an implant yet...waiting to feel better first before putting a new tooth in.
- two ct scans of my teeth, according to two different dentists everything appears normal
- 1 CT scan of my brain checking for trigeminal neuralgia/tumors... results back with no signs of this
- Some sort of heavy duty gel to help reduce sensitivity... it did nothing

2023.06.06 17:55 BoundlessBow Toddler meltdown at appt
My son is 2.5 and has a mild cross eye. Doctor thought it might just be the wide bridge of his nose but referred taking him to the pediatric ophthalmologist to have it looked at just to be on the safe side. Turns out he indeed has a cross eye from being farsighted but glasses should help correct it.
For being a pediatric office you'd think the techs and the doctors would be in tune to pediatric behaviors. My son hates people messing with his face (he melts down at the dentist too but that office is amazing and very patient). The doctor was mumbling and saying like he needs to understand this will be over soon and blah blah. I'm like dude he's 2, there's no reasoning sometimes and now he's been poked and prodded with getting his eyes dilated that he's pissed. And to top it off hes getting restless because we waited an additional 20 mins after the 30 min wait to get the eyes dilated. Doc calls a tech in to help hold him still which I told him in the beginning we will probably have to do because he's going to squirm. Doc just kept getting frustrated and I'm like just chill. In the end we ended up leaving before trying to glasses because now my son is just at an 11 and wants to go to daycare. (he kept saying go to school). The whole time too the tech acted like my son was the first ever to have a meltdown after having drops put into his eyes. Sorry if none of this makes sense, I'm just rambling now that I got to work.
Tldr: took 2yo to eye doctor, has meltdown from being poked and prodded and doc apparently doesn't get that toddlers sometimes have meltdowns.

2023.06.06 13:03 StelManias Newborn baby problem: Can anyone help?
We gave birth via a c-section at the 3rd of May 2023 to a boy weighting 3750 gr, after 40 weeks of gestation.The newborn cried normally when it was born and it did not require cardiopulmonary resuscitation but it hasn’t cried normally ever since.
The newborn has severe hypertonia (increased muscle tone) since the very first hours of its life and it is also in a state of lethargy for several hours every day. Several reflexes for the baby are not there (like the Moro reflex) and according to the pediatricians, the baby looks like it suffers from some form of encephalopathy, without any apparent morphological signs.
The newborn has issues with his oxygen levels and hematocrit. He cannot be fed from the mouth.A cerebral venous thrombosis was diagnosed initially from the MRI scan and the newborn was treated with heparin. A second MRI (a week later) showed that there was no case for a thrombosis and heparin treatment stopped. CT-scan and MRI scan were clean. Several EEGs have shown no real issues.
Several pediatric neurologists have examined the baby, not being able to conclude if it is a neurologic condition, if it is a muscular condition, something wrong with the brain or a mix of the above. They cannot identify the root cause of the problem and the symptoms are confusing.

2023.06.06 06:02 Raynrocket 24/7 fixed TMJ orthotic
Hi, new here as I’ll soon be starting my 24/7 fixed TMJ orthotic. I dug through some old posts and saw conflicting comments in the past so I was curious to hear opinions on this. After numerous tests, CT scan, etc, my dentist (DMD, MAGD, FPFA, LVIF) suggested the 24/7 fixed orthotic would be the best route for 1-3 months, followed by phase 2 (ortho or reconstruction, TBD).
My bite hasn’t felt great in a while(front top/bottom teeth making constant contact), muscle aches/tightness in face/jaw/neck/shouldeback, poor posture/forward head, and my jaw seems even slightly slanted. I have been going to PT for about 2 months thus far as well.
Would love to hear peoples experiences, thoughts, what to expect from this. Hoping it helps!

2023.06.05 23:58 vetdrk Tongue tie post-op care - Chiro, OT, PT, RMT or all?! Who performs myofunctional therapy?
My 8 week old son had his tongue tie corrected via laser at the pediatric dentist 4 days ago. We’ve been given exercises to prevent reattachment of the tie, but after going down the rabbit hole, it seems like there are many modalities that are recommended post op.
Please explain to me like I’m 5… what is “body work” exactly? So many practitioners say that body work is important, but who does this and what does it entail?
Other than doing the post op exercises for however long the peds dentist recommends, should we also be taking him to chiro, OT, or PT? I’ve been reading that myofunctional therapy is important for helping to resolve the secondary effects from tongue tie, but which professional does this?
Symptoms that my baby had that are related to tongue ties: - shallow latch (although non painful) - swallows lots of gas, causing colic pain - does not sleep on his back for longer than 30 mins - ONLY sleeps chest-to-chest on us, I suspect the hyper extension of his neck helps open his airways - high arched palate - sleeps with mouth open (open mouth breathes) - congestion - dry lips and white tongue

2023.06.05 23:32 Franhoop Chronic Sinusitis, causing Strabismus?
 | Hi, after getting back into playing rec hockey and taking a few decent collisions, I noticed I couldn’t breathe from my right side in early March, sometimes doing exercise would clear a small passage way or using Drixoral (Oxy hydrochloride) would clear temporarily. I might have used around 20 days in a row, skipping a few here and there, not knowing that it could cause rebound congestion. No coughing or other cold symptoms, I’ve always been prone to sneezing and runny nose due to allergies though. Both Mom, Dad and brother have seasonal allergy symptoms. submitted by Franhoop to Sinusitis [link] [comments] Through April I started noticing more pressure in my face, not being able to get anything out of my nose, a harder time sleeping, waking up with teeth and jaw and eventually eye pain. I wouldn’t say I’m super stressed, but work was busy and playing league sports added physical anxiousness. Dentist said I was grinding teeth, I since sleep upright and with a hard moulded mouth guard (has helped with the jaw pain). In late April, I had a few beers during the day and night, stood by an outdoor wood burning pizza oven which was producing smoke for hours, went to a heavily fogged venue at night. I don’t smoke, I drink occasionally (3drinks/week)and vape cannabis through a pen occasionally. I woke up the next day on April 28th with the numbness from the bottom of my eye to the right side of my lips (exactly like a dentist froze it) The pressure causing intermittent shooting pains and even more discomfort especially at night. It’s June 5th now, the numbness has gotten very slightly better, but has never subsided, I haven’t had any alcohol, lessened sugar and caffeine intake. I drink lots of water per day, I am on my 2nd round of antibiotics (1st clarithromycin 8 days, now day 9 of 20 of amoxicillin/clav). For 4 weeks I’ve been doing saline (sinus flo) rinses twice a day. I started by getting nothing through to my left side (was completely blocked for 2weeks), 2 weeks ago I started getting a teaspoon size of dark brown snot, once per saline rinse coming out of left nostril while rinsing the right. Discharge has now started to slow down. For last two weeks I’ve been prescribed 0.25ml of budesonide adding to my saline rinse, and I also add a half teaspoon of Manuka honey 800 MGO. I also do two sprays / twice per day of cortico steroid Avamys after the saline rinse. I’ve been taking bromelaine and turmeric supplements, sinupret and echinacea. Thanks to this thread, started taking muscinex 2 days ago I’ve noticed spurts of pain behind my right eye some nights and that the right side of my face still appears swollen, also my right eye is drifting upwards (hopefully just a temporary Strabismus?) puffy top of my eyelid, tear duct has been constantly dripping a tear or so per hour every day. I don’t see much info about eyes becoming unaligned as a result of Chronic Sinusitis. Wondering if there could be a potential separate cause for the strabismus or if it’s a result of inflammation and the eye will return once infection is cleared. Anybody have any experience with this? After a month and a half wait time in Vancouver BC, I have my first ENT appointment coming up in 10 days, I’m hoping to get a CT scan soon after that. (X-ray’s showed maxillary sinusitis and my right side septum appears smaller then left. Findings noted I had a 13mm benign calcification in left frontal sinus) I have been referred to an Ophthalmologist, will be early July. Optometrist said the back of the eye looked healthy, but that the strabismus might be cause for concern, wouldn’t want optical nerve to become affected. if I experience double vision or sustain pain to get it checked out at a hospital. In the meantime, trying to rest, steam, go to acupuncture 1/week. Hoping to be referred to an Allergist to help figure out any causes. Thanks for any other remedy recommendations or what to look out for during my ENT appointment! 👃🏻 |
2023.06.05 23:11 Cheesedoodle1986 Asking for Maternity Leave Extension
I switched companies 9 months ago and am due in November with baby #2. Found out today this job only has 12 weeks of maternity leave Vs the 16 I had at my previous job.
HR says I can request an extension (which ironically will be paid based on where I live in CT.) I just have to have my boss approve it. She’s a former pediatric nurse so I’m hoping she will say yes. Anyone have luck with asking for a maternity leave extension and it being granted? I have a solid plan in place for coverage while I’m out.

2023.06.05 12:47 FabulousInflation492 Proton Beam Therapy In India EdhaCare
https://www.edhacare.com/blogs/proton-beam-therapy-in-india/
Enter the realm of Proton Beam Therapy, an awe-inspiring innovation reshaping the landscape of cancer treatment. This extraordinary medical advancement harnesses the power of subatomic particles, unleashing a new era of precision and healing. With a profound focus on preserving healthy tissues, Proton Beam Therapy offers a revolutionary approach to radiation therapy, setting it apart from conventional methods.
At the core of this groundbreaking technology lies the utilization of protons, positively charged particles found within the very fabric of atoms. Their unique physical properties empower medical professionals to deliver radiation with unparalleled precision. Unlike traditional therapies employing X-rays or electrons, Proton Beam Therapy allows for the customization of protons, halting their energy deposition at precise depths within the tumor. This remarkable control mitigates the risk of damaging surrounding healthy tissues, fostering a safer treatment experience with minimized side effects.
Proton Beam Therapy's exceptional accuracy becomes especially significant when targeting tumors located near vital structures like the brain, spinal cord, or eyes. By confining radiation exclusively to the tumor site, this therapy optimizes treatment outcomes while safeguarding the delicate balance of patients' overall well-being.
Notably, Proton Beam Therapy shines brightly in the realm of pediatric oncology, offering a ray of hope to young warriors battling cancer. Its precision and reduced radiation exposure drastically minimize the potential long-term side effects, bestowing upon children the gift of a healthier future.
Embarking on the Proton Beam Therapy journey commences with meticulous treatment planning. Advanced imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT), guide healthcare professionals in mapping the tumor's precise location. This comprehensive information serves as the foundation for a personalized treatment plan, tailored to address each patient's unique anatomy and the characteristics of their cancer.
Once the treatment plan is established, patients find themselves in the comfort of specialized treatment tables, where precise alignment ensures the utmost accuracy. A colossal machine, be it a synchrotron or a cyclotron, springs to life, propelling protons to staggering speeds before directing them with unparalleled accuracy towards the tumor site. These proton beams effortlessly penetrate the body, delivering their energy at predetermined depths, eradicating cancerous cells while sparing the surrounding healthy tissues.
Throughout the treatment process, patients experience minimal discomfort, swiftly resuming their daily activities following each session. The duration of treatment varies depending on the cancer type and stage, yet Proton Beam Therapy, on the whole, offers shorter treatment times compared to conventional radiation therapies.
Proton Beam Therapy represents a remarkable milestone in cancer care, embodying the ceaseless pursuit of innovation and precision in medicine. By unlocking the potential of protons, this extraordinary therapy ensures that patients receive the most effective treatment available, with minimized side effects and improved long-term outcomes. At the forefront of cancer treatment, Proton Beam Therapy paves the way towards a brighter, healthier future for all.
