At what point is a vaguely numb right arm a concern?

Male. 20s. No diagnosed health problems. Woke up very early in the morning today, spent 10 hours studying for a final exam (and did the exact same thing this past friday). Drank maybe 6-8 cups of coffee. Grabbed some fast food after the exam, ate it, and went to bed. Woke up 2 hours later because of an uncomfortably dry throat (not unheard of for me) and because my arm felt asleep, like I had been laying on it. Dont remember if I had been sleeping on my side when I woke up.

Got up and drank some water ,Noticed arm didn't really feel like it was 'waking up' after getting up from nap and drinking some water for throat. Very vague, not quite tingling sensation that feels localized to the forearm muscle/tricep areas that I can only describe as feeling like that very late stages of the "waking up" process after you release your arm from under pressure. Moving my arm around, it feels vaguely similar to how it feels when I wake my arm up from being asleep, like there's a very small amount of motor control being affected.

My right arm is dominant and I use it for a lot of things. RSI? Carpal tunnel? Or did I have a stroke in my sleep?

I get the feeling you've never actually worked with nurses in medicine. Yeah, a lot of them are lazy, but when you deal with entitled pieces of shit all day, you kind of stop caring about those people. When I did my medicine rotations, the nurses were godsends because I could avoid the patients as much as possible. Now that I am in rads, I love my techs too, cause they are now the people that deal with patients all day.

Ok fuckers, help me out here. Should I see a psychiatrist?

The thing is that since a few years (5-6) I've been having this problem and I realized I need help, so far I thought it's something normal but now it degenerated so much that I cannot function properly and lose my concentration when studying or reading a book.

I get these rushes of anger whenever I think about a bad past experience and how could I have handled it differently. I remember every minor unpleasant shit that happened to me and overthink it over and over. For example, one or two years ago I was driving to a restaurant to meet with my parents. My future wife, her mother and grandad were with me in the car. I make a mistake and cut off someone. He stops the car near mine (average built, the usual normie wagie that looked like he smoked too much weed, long hair and a cap that all rappers wear nowadays, blue eyes and an unkept beard). He told me to bring the windows down, I do and apologize telling him I didn't see him (I really didn't see him) and he said that he will fuck me up, just that. Now I'm pretty sure I'm able to beat up someone like him like nothing, I'm a lanklet but pretty strong but in that moment, I really didn't mind it since I deserved it for not being attentive enough, mistakes like that happen, it's not the end of the world, for my fiancee's family's sake I didn't get aggressive or anything. 15 minutes ago I had a flashback of this event, clear as a day and imagined I didn't have anyone in the car, only me and the ways I could hurt that guy. Stomping his head like the nazi guy did in American History X, spitting on him, beating him until out cold or even worse, dead. Just because he said that one little insignificant thing to me. I repeat insignificant, because nobody cares, shit like that happens all the fucking time but today it was different, I had an adrenaline rush and my heart started pounding, thinking about way of hurting that guy. I do have other flashbacks too.

cont.

Another example, this time it was just me and my fiancee in the car. A cab driver pulled on the side of the road and blocked half of my lane, cars were waiting, I did honk at him and the audacity he had to start cursing at me. I fucking snapped and blocked his car, got down but he started backing up because I was too slow and my fiancee was holding me with all her power. It was fine on that moment, I felt better that I'm nobody's bitch and he backed up like a pussy but then I felt bad. Really bad. Like I probably fucked up that guy's whole day, for what? He was just waiting for his client, that's all. And the most I regretted it was the fact that my fiancee saw me explode like that and I apologized to her the whole drive.

I have other stories from uni or once when a guy wanted to grope my future wife or stupid encounters in some shops, etc. not just driving but these two popped up in my head today and made me angry like I've never been before. Just a fucking thought made my hard pump like crazy and made me think of ending someone's life...for absolutely no reason. I know it's not normal, I thought it was at first since I've always been this short fused and exploded quickly but for the sake of this girl, I was trying to not look like a fucking psychopath because I know I'm not. I have a normal life, family, I have my own apartment, my own car, pets, I don't owe money to anybody, food, sleep, exercise, books, sex is great, I have everything I want and everything I need but I can't understand why this shit happens.

Ketone bodies are basically last resort energy that is chiefly used by the brain and heart when glucose is low. The body makes it almost as a byproduct of normal gluconeogenesis. You will see elevated ketones in diabetics who don't take insulin because their body doesn't realize it has glucose available, so it keeps creating more. Since the entire body really uses glucose, ketones allow an alternate energy source for necessary organs (heart and brain).

When it comes to fatty acid use, IIRC, ketones are the result of the last oxidation of a long chain fatty acid and also a byproduct, but also giving an emergency energy source for necessary tissue.

>> No.12437275

>>12437082
>last resort energy that is chiefly used by the brain
I did some further reading and I think this was the niche that ketone bodies have. Free fatty acids tied to albumin and VLDL can't cross the blood-brain barrier but ketone bodies can. So when you run out of glucose you need the liver to release ketone bodies or else the brain has nothing to fuel it.

When adipose tissues release free fatty acids into the blood due to the influence of glucagon or adrenaline, most tissues can freely pick up those fatty acids should they need to, right?

>When adipose tissues release free fatty acids into the blood due to the influence of glucagon or adrenaline, most tissues can freely pick up those fatty acids should they need to, right?

Right, any cell with a mitochondria should theoretically be able to use it. I believe muscles and liver are referred to a lot when talking about it because they usually require large amounts of energy, which beta oxidation of fatty acids gives. This also provides the most energy out of all of our cellular processes too IIRC.

Maybe, I don't know, you should stop fucking doing the thing causing the issue. Stop taking ibuprofen, eat bland food like bread and rice, and see if that helps while taking 40mg of omeprazole daily. If you are still having symptoms, you could have gastritis or an ulcer, and you can actually up the omeprazole to 40mg twice a day if it actually helps. Supposedly you can take it even more than that, but I've only ever seen GI do BID.

Yes. What I would do is to start a stopwatch once you feel the urge and then wait an hour before you go to the bathroom. Then after maybe a month of doing this wait one and a half hours, and keep increasing the time over the months until you don't feel an urge between 4-8 hours. This way you can the nerves innervating the bladder and the bladder itself will adapt to an increased volume of urine.
It could be something more serious though, like a tumor or an infection, I would consider going to a urologist,

You should not be trying to convince someone who is healthy to take a rushed medical treatment.

Depends on how good your study habits are. I personally didn't have to study that much, maybe an extra hour or so a day except when boards came around.

But some people have very shitty study habits and don't know how they SHOULD be studying to retain information and they nonsensically spend their whole day and night studying like >>12447267

The biggest thing is to know what you need to know. If you skim first aid board review books you will get an idea of whats important, then make sure you can reason everything out (except biochem, that's straight memorization) and you will find yourself reviewing the same information a lot less.

Medfags, is there an easy way to cope with panic attacks (and to a lesser degree general anxiety)?

I was prescribed anti-anxiety meds about 2 years ago but I switched employers at the beginning of this year and lost my health coverage (and personal plans either don't cover the meds or the deductible is so high its not even worth it). Recently my panic attacks started again and it's fucking frustrating sitting there trying to convince myself i'm OK and i'm not having a heart attack, etc. There isn't anything that seems to trigger it (well, darkly/dimly spaces don't help). It's also fucking impossible for me to sleep.

The upshot is that it's the first job i've ever had that isn't minimum wage and I spend 90% of my day at home shitposting/playing vidya and getting paid for it. I can actually afford private health insurance but it seems like a fucking scam because the deductibles are so high on the plans I can afford that I may as well just pay out of pocket.

I never got the sentiment that you should never drink on an empty stomach. The liver processes alcohol at the same rate no matter what so you may as well experience the effects of it. I suppose one drawback would be a higher likelihood of ulcers because of the higher surface area alcohol would be exposed to in the stomach.

Some of us go to universities were you have tests every single week in different subjects. At the end of the semester you have exams. Not one, but you have to sit for an exam in every single subject. Some are written, some are oral, or a combination of the two. You can literally be asked about anything in a given subject. You can't gamble on what's important or not. The examiners are not necessarily interested in what you know. They will ask until they find a weak spot and rip you apart.

There's debate as to how long you should wait before clamping, or whether or not it's necessary at all.

Not great. 20-40%ish 5 year survival rate for people who have nodal mets. Problem with these types of cancers is they metastasize quick, so even seeing only 1 positive node, there are usually micromets in other places as well. It's ultimately the luck of the draw.

I should note that the specific subtype is what ultimately determines the true survival rate, apparently the "intestinal" sub type is the best one to have and the pancreaticobiliary subtype is the worst. Being that you said it was pancreatic, I was under the assumption that the pancreatic type was the kind you had.

The study I am seeing is also from 2014 and a lot can change in 6 years. My guess is the 20-40% 5 year survival is probably the low end in general, but with newer advancements it may be quite higher than that. The most important thing to do is talk to your oncologist as they will absolutely have more updated information than I am giving you but don't let them force you into doing anything you don't want to do. They are generally pushy and try to get everyone to do treatment no matter how bad the prognosis.
