Hello /med/
I'm 21 and got problems with my libido since I've been like 17. Just got my testosterone tested and I've got 7,050 ng/ml which is pretty great as I understand. Now how the FUCK do I have problems with libido with that number. I remember that the problems started when I did nofap for like two weeks and I remember that I tried to repair it by taking some herbal shit that's supposed to boost my test. I'm 21 and I feel like I'm 50 in terms of my desire to fuck chicks. And no I'm not gay nor bi. Athletic build 5'10 74kg

Guys, I think I coomed too much and got an infection.Since yesterday I felt some random pain driven to the tip of my dick, didn't feel burning, it was more like something hit me or a sore muscle.

Now I coomed again and the pain increased a bit localized at one side of my pubic region, feels vague and in pulses, so I guess it's epidydimitis or some shit. I'm gonna start TMP 160/800, got any other tips or things i should be aware of?

Started with lymph node swelling, incredibly painful
Next day lymph pain + a crazy bilateral pain near hip, if i pushed the pain eould come on slow but sharp and linger
Two days later stomach ache, right side near appendinx. No issues with excretion so iunlikely appendicitis
2 days later chest pain developes, mainly around and below heart, feels like theres a weight on my chest
Pain in right side continues, but also feels bilateral. Over past few days a new kind of pain that feels like being pinched under the skin is happening in random parts of the body: leg, back, torso.
More consistent pain in right thigh around satorius.
No fever, temp seems normal, no discoloration in urine. Breathing appears normal, bp idk

If you live in the US, your goal will be passing the USMLE, then you'd ask seniors for qbanks and such, you will end up becoming a shit medic as well but that's how it is.

If you live anywhere else, the most important areas are anatomy, physiology, light reading on pharmacology, pathology, and finally medicine in which you'll have to memorize treatments.

Let's assume, for the sake of argument, that I have a medical card and access to a dispensary regulated for heavy metal content in the soil, pesticides, etc. The literature I've seen on this subject, while inconsistent with regards to frequent adolescent use, doesn't seem to attribute light adult-onset smoking with long term cognitive impairment.

People who know what they're doing and have money can get MRI scans to diagnose things doctors are too lazy to diagnose.
People who pursue their own health because the doctors they go to are lazy usually end up fixing their problems.

Ok bootlicker.
Somalia is a failed socialist state and is currently underrun by warlords, not a free market.
We actually had a free market in healthcare in USA in the 50s and 60s and the prices were extremely cheap, the quality was high and the doctors actually cared about you.

All of those symptoms can be explained with haemorrhoids +/- IBS, go get a proper rectal examination. If you have symptoms of colon cancer then the disease is usually already advanced, most colon cancers if they are cured are detected during routine screening of old (50+) people.
The family history is only really significant if they had colon cancer at early ages (before 45) in your case, because there are some genetic diseases that cause colon cancer at early ages (e.g. Familial Adenomatous Pollyposis).
Overall it is extremely unlikely you have colon cancer, but if your symptoms are bothering you and you get regular blood in the stool then a proper workup is important to rule out IBD (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease) or a diverticulosis. But given the fact that you have a likely low fibre diet and are overweight (hence you strain a lot on the toilet likely), your symptoms are likely caused by haemorrhoids; solution is to stop straining so hard on the toilet and eat a high fibre diet.

Medicine is guided by evidence and not by presumption. Yes, you have a higher risk than the average person but concerning yourself with a cancer you have no way to proof is nonsensical.
Everyone, by everything and everywhere is at risk of cancer yet the world isn't bedridden just waiting to die by Big C.

Hey /med/ curious about this. Do you think there could ever be a scenario where covid mutates to be more lethal? I know the r0 is moderately high and there can be lots of complications/permanent damage to organs from the virus, but the overall death rate is still quite low. What I am wondering is, will be ever see people dropping like flies on the street?

>> No.12070858

>>12070821
There's no way to know for certain. Newly mutated agents cause all this shitstorm because there's no way to tell how will they react against each population.
A virus measure of success is its ability to blend with its host, replicating and spreading while causing the less harm possible. Aggressive viruses like ebola, generally, stay isolated in the same area because the patients die before they get to travel somewhere else.
The only thing I can guarantee is that the next pandemia will also be a virus and will also come from Asia. Since the aviary SARS the trend has been too much of a coincidence and every couple years the CCP disposes millions of animals infected by newly mutated agents.

I've lost two distant relatives to that shit. The mother of a friend died by atypical pneumonia pb SC2. Granny of a friend got sick, was tested positive but made it through.
A couple months ago I had a minor fever followed by cephalalgia and lumbalgia that went away the following day. Didn't confirm the diagnosis because I wasn't at risk and desu was a bit scared.
It doesn't take a medic to confirm a raise on atypical pneumonia and link them to the chink outbreak.

No, the source of your difficulty understanding is that you actually are retarded. Small minded, self centered, uncreative, and retarded. Let me expand your mind a bit.

-Assume the pathology we associate with covid exists
-Assume planned and opportunistic use of this situation
-Realize that covid can exist in some sense in one region, and not another.
-Realize that numbers can be both artificially inflated (fabricated), and reflect something real.
-Realize that the effects associated with covid can be caused by other things. You can have two different pathologies being called by the same name.
-Realize that the incentive for a pretext to mask (hah) a rapid economic and social reorganization exists.
-Realize that despite all this, the actual case mortality is icnredibly low, transmissability is low, infectivity is low. Nothing has reliably shown that asymptomatic carriers suffer deleterious effects via some other avenue, though this was my first assumption early on.

And I'll only briefly mention the possibility of syethetic biology, biomimetics, and nanotechnology with you. You'll respond as though you're sane, snicker, mock, and make your little remarks and so on. Truth is, you're just like most people throughout history. Way behind the curve, but arrogantly and mutually self assured that you know exactly where you are and what the world really is. Despite spending most of your life waiting for someone else to tell you how it is, and to have it appaear as though everyone agrees.

The three doctors apparently insufficiently trained in hearing symptoms confused muscle weakness with ataxia (at what point are these the same thing), e.g. my perpetual imbalance is weakness in the muscles that control the balls of my feet. Doctors should and don't have ready a whole fucking host of follow-up questions for "I feel weird bro." "How so?" "Just weird..."

It's hyperthyroidism. Will blood test to be sure. If not, it's gss (runs in family), in which case, considering symptoms have stalled and I'm not already dead after a few months, as doctor-recommended, will snort ~100 million allogeneic adipose-derived MSCs. If that doesn't work, allogeneic NSCs. If that doesn't work, autologous iPSCs. If that doesn't work, autologous NSCs. If that doesn't work, then I will kill myself because fuck this stupid game where e.g. children masquerade as doctors >>12071145. One of these will work, because reality is infinite; God only need be possible; therefore God exists. and I'm me.

There are quite a few reasons. First and foremost psychological warfare/disinformation. The fact that a lot of Americans, unfortunately, have a poor education and are incapable of critical thinking is a major contributing factor too. They prefer to think in terms of emotion rather than logic and that is reflected in the fact that they rather listen to politicians instead of epidemiologists and physicians for public health advice. Leadership is an issue. For example, see pic related. Their president for months continued to deny the seriousness fo the virus, refused to bother encouraging the population to abide by public health recommendations, and pushed a medication (hydroxychloroquine) which has been found to not benefit covid patients (in fact for some it worsened their condition and increased mortality). The USA is a very backwards place. No other nation on Earth has politicized public health to the extent the USA has. We are witnessing the early stages of the downfall of their society I'm afraid. These riots are not helping either and they are absolutely fueling the spread. The actual number of cases is probably a lot higher than what is officially recorded and due to politics they are now reversing guidelines on covid testing and you're apparently not allowed to even ask possible covid patients if they attended the protests/riots. A diseased society beyond saving. Just stop worrying and let nature take its course. This is a survival of the fittest situation now. There is no use in trying to reason with retards.

And my friends practically don’t give a fuck and are continuing on as normal. I zoomed with 2 of them yesterday and even despite their noticeable dry coughing they say they are fine.

Your family and friends sound fucked. There are a few things you can do. First and foremost I'd recommend you take vitamin D daily. One trend observed is that vitamin D deficiency is linked with higher covid mortality/complications. You could take n acetylcysteine as well which is good for immune system function, acts as a mucolytic and anticoagulant. I take 1500mg daily. Also vitamin C, zinc, and quercetin. I'd also recommend you check out a youtube channel called Medcram, I based my daily regimen off of one of those videos. It's run by an American physician and he produces excellent evidence-based, informative content. Prevention is key though. If you can get your hands on N95's, do so.

Lastly I know it's difficult to cope but seriously your mental health is important too. Don't let the madness drive you mad. I try to meditate every morning and evening which has helped my stress levels a lot.

I'm no medfag/biofag, but your graph only shows death rates in time. AFAIU, vaccines have other purposes too, like reducing the effects viruses have on people. the fact that people don't die from a virus doesn't necessarily mean that the virus is not a risk. also, your graph says nothing about treatments.

You're too stupid to know when you've been embarrased, like some kinda fucked energizer bunny. No matter the retort, it just goes right over your head, but you're too autistic to stop. You just keep going and going and going. You then "win" these screeching contests because you simply outlast everyone.

You've made it so I'm not sure anymore if stupidity is actually a superpower. Think about it as hard as you can: going through life seeing only what makes sense to you; defining logic and reason as what makes sense to you; believing science is on your side; any dissent is immediately merely dismissed as anti-[any of those things] or in the case of this thread, anti-medicine? anti-doctor?. All the while your bubble's integrity, resilient to outside forces, is maintained by weapons-grade stupidity. Come to think of it, this is the leftist superpower. I could see why leftism is so appealing.

Anyway, you should notice I'm not quoting you anymore. You're not gonna read and understand my replies; I'm not gonna read yours. It's not like now's going to be the time your latent intelligence finally shines through :^) I can take the high road or, this actually isn't used enough for it's simplicity and elegance

fuck you

unrelated but how someone could find you if they feel relieving you of your post would do the world a service because who knows how many people this guy has hurt. This is not a call to do this:

1. go back every thread, find the poster being a jackass, and make note of any identifying information
2. write simple program in something like python to analyze word usage in all previously found posts
3. sort resultant worldlist by numer of times used ascending
4. write webcrawler to ...crawl entire internet for use of these words in same frequecy
5. sort found writings by likely match of person
6. read every one and see if the writer is a top-tier jackass, and make note of identifying information
7. post on r/4chan with programs pre-written
8 ????

In case you have not got the message nobody here gives a shit about your schizoid anti-intellectual nonsense. All you have done is deny covid, bitch about leftism (even know I am not a leftist myself), and swear at people due to your inferiority complex. People like you are mentally ill, toxic, and unstable and you belong in a psychiatric ward. Go take your seroquel.

You're a fuckin lunatic lol. Do you want me to call the police on you and tell them there is a schizo on the internet threatening people because he's off his meds? Becaue saying "I will make certain that you suffer" is a direct threat to my safety and actually illegal.

I agree but for different reasons.

Libertarians are generally ok but they always have some kind of twisted bullshit views that ruin it. I'm sure if I bothered to google your 3rd party meme candidate who will never win anything I could find some flaws :)

I became more and more Libertarian the more I learned economics, specifically austrian economics.
