11:05 schestowitz-TR; there was more an hour ago in #boycottnovell-social

11:05 DaemonFC; I obviously have something that's really nasty that responds to antibiotics, but it has to be powerful enough to kill it, and the amoxicillin wasn't quite enough.

11:06 DaemonFC; I'm on antibiotics maybe once ever 10-15 years on average.

11:06 DaemonFC; Although, the last few years I've been on them about half the total amount as my entire life leading up to now.

11:07 DaemonFC; I had some lumps in my armpit and I had to go on two rounds of antibiotics to kill that, late last year.

11:07 DaemonFC; It was either that or wait until they got so bad that the doctor had to lance them.

11:07 DaemonFC; Then there was that false alarm that led them to administer Penicillin-G and then admit that they screwed up.

11:08 DaemonFC; I was pretty mad about that.

11:08 schestowitz-TR; DaemonFC: maybe take that to -social

11:08 schestowitz-TR; or #techpol

11:08 DaemonFC; Well, it's obvious that there are some patients that are fucking this up for everybody.

11:08 DaemonFC; They go in there and demand them no matter what's actually wrong with them.

11:09 DaemonFC; I think doctors are just sick of hearing that and they use this "antibiotic resistance" thing as cover to not even listen or to try to figure out if antibiotics are, in fact, the proper way to proceed.

11:11 DaemonFC; If you eliminate everything obvious that's viral, I think you should try a broad spectrum antibiotic. Many cases of bronchitis actually are the flu, just the plain old flu.

11:11 DaemonFC; Mom doesn't get her flu shots because she says she sees people who got the flu shot end up in the hospital with severe flu anyway.

11:11 DaemonFC; There are just too many strains of the flu to keep under wraps with one vaccination each year.

11:13 DaemonFC; What's really nasty about the flu is that it can start out as the flu and progress into something else. Because while one thing is attacking your body and forcing it to stop and deal with it, you're effectively immune compromised to anything else that comes along.

11:14 DaemonFC; I want to hurry up and kill this bacterial infection because COVID is all over the place. Might not be much of a threat by itself, but if you get it while you've already got bronchitis....

11:16 DaemonFC; schestowitz-TR, Doctors aren't perfect. For years and years they all got together and decided that chronic sinusitis could be solved once and for all by expensive sinus surgeries.

11:16 DaemonFC; They got me with that.

11:17 DaemonFC; They said they were removing polyps the size of half dollars. I was 10 years old, they said I had the sinuses of a 90 year old man.

11:19 DaemonFC; The technology for sinus surgery has improved. They have balloon sinuplasty and something involving fiber optics now.

11:20 DaemonFC; So it's not as invasive. I've considered having them do it again now that it's an in-office thing where they don't have to put you under.

11:21 DaemonFC; Medicine has gone from being pretty crude to being able to fix a lot of things as a no-drama outpatient procedure within my lifetime.

11:21 schestowitz-TR; iirc, polyps are like small cysts

11:21 DaemonFC; Yeah, pretty much.

11:21 schestowitz-TR; it's a mixed bag

11:21 schestowitz-TR; there's disregard for side effects

11:21 schestowitz-TR; and over-medicating

11:22 schestowitz-TR; a collague of mine said last night the NHS had prescribed morphone for him

11:22 schestowitz-TR; opioid illegal in the US

11:22 schestowitz-TR; also, the two of them struggle with their health amid covi

11:22 DaemonFC; Morphine is pretty much only used in extreme cases anymore.

11:22 schestowitz-TR; but I will spare you the detsils

11:22 schestowitz-TR; small company, so you can find out their names

11:22 DaemonFC; They don't even use it on gunshot victims in Chicago.

11:23 DaemonFC; Of course, studies have shown the paramedics are more likely to administer morphine if you're white.

11:24 schestowitz-TR; maybe they worry the black patients will morph into whites

11:24 schestowitz-TR; Morphine was used a lot befor

11:25 schestowitz-TR; ewhen my grandma, a smoker, was dying with lung cancer they gave her morphine at one point

11:25 schestowitz-TR; towards the end

11:25 schestowitz-TR; so she was high and smiling

11:25 schestowitz-TR; maybe not aware of the severity of the situation when I last visited her

11:25 schestowitz-TR; I don't know if they still offer these drugs

11:25 schestowitz-TR; "legal" hard narcotics

11:26 DaemonFC; In hospice they do morphine.

11:26 DaemonFC; They also give it to an uncle (by marriage) of mine.

11:27 DaemonFC; He was hist by some lady in her car while he was on his bicycle about 20 years ago.

11:27 DaemonFC; He never was able to walk properly again.

11:27 DaemonFC; The doctors at the pain management clinic give him morphine.

11:27 DaemonFC; He's been taking it for a long time.

11:28 DaemonFC; Where you see them significantly curtail pain medicine is for dental procedures and stuff.

11:28 schestowitz-TR; laughter gas is better

11:28 schestowitz-TR; less effect

11:28 DaemonFC; Today, if you get your wisdom teeth out, expect them to say prescription strength ibuprofen.

11:28 schestowitz-TR; and wears off quickly

11:28 DaemonFC; No more vicodins.

11:30 schestowitz-TR; so nowadays when you prepare for big dental work of operation or probe you know you're about to get stoned

11:30 schestowitz-TR; that's the sole perk, offloaded or balanced by pain/.discomfort

11:30 schestowitz-TR; some of these medics get accustomed to working with patients whom they get stoned

11:31 schestowitz-TR; heck, the police can co-opt them to get confessions

11:31 schestowitz-TR; no torture needed, just get them stones

11:31 schestowitz-TR; *stoned

11:31 schestowitz-TR; or drunk

11:31 DaemonFC; Yeah, lowers the barrier to saying something incriminating.

19:33 DaemonFC; That shit costs money. So, pretty much the only people who ever get to go to appeals court are either loaded, or minorities who the lawyers take on pro bono.

19:33 DaemonFC; I have never seen lawyers take on white clients pro bono with something like Project Innocence.

19:35 DaemonFC; So the judges feel pretty confident giving people like me whatever they feel like, if we land in front of them for some reason. Because they know legal expenses for overturning a case can go into the high tens of thousands of dollars, or more. So the only thing to do it try to keep your head down.

19:37 DaemonFC; So basically all of the working class white people you hear about who managed to get out of prison on an appeal went to the law library and started figuring out how to file motions with the court and got a fucking law degree when they got out.

19:37 DaemonFC; Because that's what kind of shit the system throws in front of us. There's no "Hey, here's a free lawyer and we'll take care of everything.".
