My sincere apologies. I got lost in a couple of thought trains and that phys sending me an email. Trying to jumpshift from a mechanism of injury intervention to a potential chronic condition. I'm a fish out of water with my diagnostic-therapeutic capacity easily fitting in a teaspoon. Just to...

@HooahArmy Got referred to an immunologist. Reply being, "Possible localized cytokine release syndrome. Have patient tested for diabetes. If condition persists a full chem panel may be in order."

So a loophole where members can abuse other members, deliberately defeating the ignore feature.

@HooahArmy Follow up. Three days ago, her rash was almost gone and no itching for 48 hours. We discontinued the treatment regimen. This AM rash has returned with the itching. This is way outside my field of understanding. Seems to be acting like a virus. But isn't fitting into the...

................... too soon to tell. Give it another decade or two to fall over and wither. How much has it grown? I've always suspected asparagus originated from an alien life form. Just ask the average kid forced to eat those things.

Never. I'm deathly allergic to religious weapons of mess destruction. And I was firmly siding with the rabbit. @goofyGoober99 @Charliemum Just to put on record, when it comes to knowledge of animals and acerbity I'm a very pale shadow next to @viper69 @Glorfindel Something like this: I think...

And also, please take into account the thousands of posts, no exaggeration, I and others have read, where an animal doesn't act according to the keepers expectations. So consider my lampoon non personal, much like a stray dog under your bedroom window yapping and howling at the moon. Generic...

Obvious molting, extended time frame. Also obvious, initial enclosure has numerous synthetic materials. Almost certain chlorinated compounds present. Nearly all eventually break down into various toxins. "Deer hoomans. We apologize for not fitting our natural functions into your expected time...

Consider hot glues. Once cooled they are inert non toxic. Some are clear.

Exactly the conclusion I came to. A specific mechanism of injury similar to urushiol coupled to a particularly nasty delivery system. And paywalls are obviously the reason I kept drawing blanks. The predictable 7-14 days is the clue it isn't just random anaphylaxis.

A couple of missing intrercostals and a trick knee constantly remind me of that adventure decades down the road. Pasteurella multocida, AKA cat bite/scratch fever is nobodies friend. Cousin to Yersinia pestis, the black plague. LOL!!! I wonder if they would call maintenance or Dr. Strong for...

We've had several chomps from them around here. Not considered deadly, but commonly known to cause neurological symptoms; twitching, spasms, partial loss of motor control, memory lapses and chorea that can go on for days, weeks and even have minor symptoms up to several months later. (Serotonin...

What is disconcerting is if politicians see a way to garner votes to increase their (niche) popularity come re-election time. Let's double the irony. Hypotheticals from personal instances; Tagged by rattler that I was trying to help off a roadway. Ban on public contact with wild animals of any...

Lovely irony. AB can be used as evidence supporting animal bans and restrictions. Taking control of a reported nuisance animal: Animal owner:, "I've only been bitten once!" Animal control officer: "Can I quote you on that?"

Thanks. Same same, just vague. She transferred the bug with her hands, knowing when, from where and how she did it.

I'm looking for answers. All data I'm finding is vague. They do not have venom glands. But : " Serious allergic reactions including anaphylaxis from the injection of serum and other non-specific proteins have been documented" " they appear physically capable of carrying pathogens and this...

What is interesting is much, most or all of the time they keep those traits as venoms on down the time line, often adding to them as environments require adaptation. Ex: Latrodectus with six unique venom molecules. It can't happen to me duhh. Ambulance, FD and LEO, it's a rare day when they...

@Outpost31Survivor Now if only there was a treatment for the It-Can't-Happen-To-Me! mentality, AKA the Stupidity Syndrome. Not surprising at all Cardiogenic and Systemic shock has a say in worst case scenarios.

Test your hygrometer: In a sealable container, add 1 tablespoon of salt water slurry in a small container like a bottle cap. So much salt it only partially dissolves. Install hygrometer where it can't touch the slurry. Seal and wait 24 hours. Accurate hygrometer will read 75% humidity. Take note...

You know your tinnitus is serious when you can't hear cicadas.
