#SanFrancisco based study finds 80% of #AsianAmerican women with #LungCancer never smoked & #researchers are trying to figure out why.

5 yrs ago, Vicky Ni got a call from her doctor. She'd gone in for an X-ray for a pinched nerve. The next thing she knew, she was sitting in an #oncologist's office.

The 48 yr old mother of 2 was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, 2nd most common #cancer in both men &women in #UnitedStates.

Our medical centre has just put up some of its fees ($63 a visit) and introduced "Note that appointments running over time will be charged at $20 per 5 minutes, including for community services card holders. A standard appointment only allows 10 minutes of consultation and 5 minutes for your clinician to make notes. Only one item can be addressed safely in a standard consultation." (NZ$)

What sort of charges do you experience where ever you are in the world?

A fun #medical story from my past week… I’m trying to share the positives.

I had a surgical procedure Monday and had 4 nurses involved during various steps. My 2 surgical nurses knew what POTS was and treated me so well - they gave me extra fluids. :)

My last nurse in recovery… her 16 year old daughter has #POTS. What did I do? Of course I talked to her and answered questions and was an advocate… on my surgical bed… because that’s what I do. 💜☺️

We exchanged emails 🤘🏻

No need to fear

>2 decades ago, the shocking results of a major women’s study challenged the safety of menopause medication, & overnight, millions of & their abandoned the drugs….
Now, a long-term follow-up of the Initiative (WHI)…found that for many younger menopausal women—under 60—the benefits…outweigh the risks for short-term treatment of symptoms, incl’g hot flashes & night sweats.

The results disrupted #medical care for millions of #women …, many of whom had been advised by doctors that the drugs not only relieved symptoms, but also offered long-term protection against heart attacks, which was widely believed…. The sudden about-face…meant that scores of baby boomer & GenX women were forced to navigate the vexing symptoms of #menopause —incl’g hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia & mood disturbances—w/o the benefit of highly effective #HormoneTreatments.

TW for (+) #medical talk.

I’ve been through a hell of a week. I won’t share any further details atm, but I had to go get bloodwork in the community today.

The phlebotomist saw my arms and immediately realized I’d been through it. Multiple IVs and other pokes. He was so kind, gentle, and patient with me. Quickly, he did a very gentle poke… and I thanked him for using a butterfly needle. He replied, “I can see you’ve been through so much, of course!”

That kindness nearly brought me to tears.

Hey Fedi friends! It's the end of the month again which means it's time for a new mutual aid request. (This ended up being a little longer than I expected but bare with me! CashApp & PayPal links at the end! :floof_Heart:)

To try and keep this short and since many of the folks who have known me or seen me around the Fediverse know or have an idea of what the current situation is like.

I'm a minor with no source of income outside of coding which does not bring nearly enough in for me to even buy lunch most months so I have to resort to mutual aids or theft (Which got me in a lot of legal trouble, but fuck the corporates.). I need at least enough fundings to support me (Age 16, turning 17 this year) and my younger sibling (age 15).

I am a high school student living in a crappy situation with divorced parents. Where one house, the main house, I am refused basic needs such as, but not limited to, food, water, hygiene, clothing, proper medical care, etc. While the other house, my mothers, is a hoarder mess with little to no food, and when there is non expired food that has not been gotten into by animals, months, mold, maggots, etc, it is often times one of the following: Chocolate, cookies, Twinkies, hostess foods, etc. My mother hoards much more than just garbage but indeed, animals also. (With over 70 animals in the house and dogs who are not potty trained along with more animals, outside of the house).

Neither houses include proper medical care. I have a chronic skin disease that causes me severe pain and if it gets bad enough, it becomes an open wound that tunnels often times on my chest or on my legs. My parents do not supply the proper medications I need for these, and when asked or mentioned needing the medications, I get told "Get a job". (Which I am also not allowed to have.)

I'm constantly at risk of being kicked out of the house at any time without warning, a couple of months ago I was locked out of the house in regards to being trans and using my chosen name tho thankfully this was after a school play and I had a safe place at the time.

CPS does not listen. The cops do not listen. I cannot speak up about any of these issues even to trusted adults as this causes more issues at home and gets CPS involved.

Cost breakdowns for the month! Any extra fundings will be put towards getting my parrot a new urn (His last one unfortunately broke).

FOOD: $400

HYGIENE: $30 (Feminine products, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, etc)

MEDICATIONS: $50 (4x meds for chronic disease (3 prescription + 1 one reg), anxiety/insomnia meds, pain killers)

CAT FOOD: $20

TOTAL: $500


NOT URGENT BUT STILL NEEDED: I will be doing commissions in regards to funding for this stuff, it might take a little bit but I'll do it o7

URN REPLACEMENT: $160 (I know this is expensive but it was the cheapest urn I could find that was made with a decent quality that would work better for traveling with him, as this bird means a lot to me, even in death. If you've known or seen me around within my past year and a half ish on Fedi you'd know how much my beloved Leo was worth to me<3)

(We attempted to fix the urn but it didn't work very well as it proceeded to keep breaking and at this point it's cheaper just to replace it)

LAPTOP FIX: $20

(Keyboard had an incident where one of the keys broke and need to be replaced, this was a rough estimate on the price it should cost from a friend. - The laptop doesn't have a warranty 😹 but I need this for personal use + school + studies)

CASHAPP: $LynxPunk
PAYPAL: https://paypal.me/LynxPunk?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US

The federal government has added $36.4 million to a program designed to support people who have been seriously injured or killed by vaccines since the end of 2020.

The program was announced shortly after shots first became available to the public, and provides financial compensation to people who were adversely affected by approved vaccines.
