I keep hearing an ad for a drug. It has the part at the end about the side effects. The last one is parasitic infection.
PARASITIC INFECTION
#wtf

File Under FML: I went to the hospital for my procedure today and during check-in I mentioned how my finger was swollen, which just started last night.
They then canceled my procedure due to risk of infection since my finger appears to be infected.
Then they told me to go to Urgent Care where I got a prescription for antibiotics, and UG told me if it gets worse I need to go to the ER.
Also, procedure is rescheduled for two weeks from now. So, two more weeks of pain.

Looks like the rate of long COVID after a acute infection is 40% or higher...

„Star Trek: Infection“ angespielt: Mutierter Survival-Horror in VR
In „Star Trek: Infection“ kämpft der Spieler gegen Wucherungen, wilde Visionen und die Technik. Wir sind mit der VR-Brille über die USS-Lumen geschlichen.

Medical procedure is today, so no ibuprofen, no food, very little water, sedation, two injections, and I think I have an infection in my finger. It’s been a hell of a year so far! 😖

This is so deeply disturbing and yet, as someone who has seen too much of the inside of a hospital with loved ones, completely unsurprising:
“He diagnosed her as having “social issues,” and noted in his doctor's notes that she had a substance use disorder and generalized anxiety disorder. "
She had sepsis, which is essentially an infection run wild. It is life threatening.
The “Social Issue” in this case was clearly not with the patient, but with the hospital and it is very very common stemming from over-work and under-education. (Even doctors can be undereducated in many ways)

Two more deaths in ICE custody were reported this week, including a refugee who died after an untreated toothache.

The thorn-induced arthritis isn't getting any worse, but I'm not convinced it's getting any better, either. No obvious signs of infection, just mega stiffness.
I don't like doctors. I may just learn to live with this.

A little over two weeks, I caught a cold from one of my kids. Like his cold, it was pretty minor - about a day of sore throat, some minor congestion, and lots of fatigue.
The congestion and fatigue have remained. I figured it developed into a sinus infection (something that happens a lot with me, I have awful sinuses/ears), and a few days ago I went on antibiotics in case it was bacterial or strep or something.
Now I'm wondering if I had covid! I wish we still did testing.…

"Humans burn themselves—and survive burns—with a frequency likely much greater than any other animal. Most animals avoid fire completely, while in contrast, humans live alongside fire and most humans will experience minor burns throughout their lives."
Exposure to burn injuries played key role in shaping human evolution, study suggests

Exposure to burn injuries played key role in shaping human evolution, study suggests
Humans' exposure to high temperature burn injuries may have played an important role in our evolutionary development, shaping how our bodies heal, fight infection, and sometimes fail under extreme injury, according to new research.

Sonnet 067 - LXVII
Ah! wherefore with infection should he live,
And with his presence grace impiety,
That sin by him advantage should achieve,
And lace itself with his society?
Why should false painting imitate his cheek,
And steal dead seeming of his living hue?
Why should poor beauty indirectly seek
Roses of shadow, since his rose is true?
Why should he live, now Nature bankrupt is,
Beggar'd of blood to blush through lively ve…

Just had a virtual urgent care appointment (ear infection flare) and had the nicest gay dude prescribe me some meds.

As Emily Waldorf languished in an Arkansas hospital,
she felt like “a ticking time bomb”.
It was 2024, and the physical therapist was in the midst of miscarrying a much-wanted pregnancy.
But because her fetus still had a heartbeat, hospital officials said Arkansas’s near-total abortion ban blocked them from taking steps to induce labor and end her pregnancy.
Instead, Waldorf had to wait and hope that she didn’t develop a deadly infection.
Waldorf’s sister, Eli…

I think it's lovely that a glistening pus wound like Stephen Miller found his equal in the herpes infection that is Katie Miller. It just goes to show you, there's someone out there for everyone!
