2023.06.07 00:59 ThrowRA345789 I got my 2nd ear piercing in October.

I got them don’t in October and only my right ear hurts when a earring is in. It’s a bit red and there’s black junk coming out of it. Anyone else have this problem? I’m not sure if it’s because Claire’s did it. If I take it out to let it heal will it close up? I got it done months ago. .

2023.06.07 00:59 2TrenchcoatsInAKid Would it be unfair to date women?

I used to confidently identify as bi because I was ''sure'' I found both men and women attractive. Though the more I attempt to date men, the less sure I become. Matching with dudes on a dating app is easy, and I genuinly thought I found them attractive. However, I usually don't even make it to the 2nd date as my attraction/interest completely disappears right after. Even if the date went well and I thought they looked physically attractive! The real kicker was the most recent date I went on. I thought I was so into him, his looks, his personality, yet when he held my hand for the first time as he walked me to my car all I could focus on how uncomfortable it felt, and the relief when he let go. When I got home I actually felt physically sick, got the ick and told him there would be no 2nd date. It seriously got me thinking if I'm even into men and have stopped trying to date them atm.
I have never dated a woman before, never even kissed one. But my interest in dating them is definitely there. I've matched with a lovely lady on tinder and I really want to take her on a date, yet there is this gnawing feeling that it would be unfair if I did. I thought I was a 100% into men before, and now I feel like I might not be at all. So how can I currently be 100% sure of my attraction to women? I'm afraid that the moment a woman touches me or something I won't be into it and will disappoint her. I feel like it would be unfair to try to date someone only to later be like ''yeah sorry im not into women after all'' and make them feel like they were just an experiment to me. I don't want to potentially play with someone's feelings like that, yet I also don't know what else I could do. I'm really not the type to go to nightclubs or engage in hook-up culture and explore my sexuality that way... Please share your thoughts i feel really conflicted :(

For anyone who's lived in the undergrad apartments before, did you have to buy putty to fill in the push pin holes on your wall? I was desperate at the beginning of the school year and tape unfortunately did not work for these damn walls lol.
And if you didn't buy putty to fill in the push pin holes, did you get charged after the school year ended?

2023.06.07 00:58 JavyBarrera25 I’m (26M) struggling to see where things are going with a 4month situation crush (23F)

Hello all, will try to make this short don’t want to type a whole story of 4 months. Met this girl through Instagram who a buddy of ours took photos of me for a merch brand shoot she found me through his photo upload posts of me. Shooted my shot and clicked right away. 1-2 weeks before St Patrick’s day. She’s a college art major student and we first hung out on st Patrick’s day at her school studio. We clicked and got to know eachother she made me melt at first glance. Hung out that whole weekend very VERY late night car talks and drives from 10-3am that whole Patrick’s day weekend. Anyways, been 4 months now in the talking stage. She wants to take things slow, sometimes I walked away because I wasn’t sure if this is what she wanted. She has Poor POOR texting communicating to the point where she replies to me every 12 hours but when we’re in person we are very outstanding and have told eachother our lives and we go into deep talks and moments each time we hang out. 4months and I barely kissed her 2 nights ago we had a make out sesh to slow oldies music and never shared moment like that with a female ever. I asked her that we’ve had chemistry for 4 months now when will we be a title and official thing like be together. She tells me she wants to take things slow, she got out of a relationship in January, and I been single over a year and a half. And sometimes my heart tells me to wait for her until as needed and my gut feeling says to leave. I like her A LOT. She likes me back but i guess i haven’t seen how much she does. My homie told me he thinks she has options.. yeah she’s young and beautiful but i don’t want to think that way if she does have options or is seeing others. I ignore everyone and dating apps and have had my focus on her and been about her for 4 months now. I did cut her off once that made her change her communication but I ended up finding my way back to her and telling her why I did and she accepted the fact but I think she has her doubts too. I really enjoy the moments with her and every time we see each other we both tell each other how we feel like home and how we go well together and what not. But I’m so confused. We both are believers of god and I truly think god always finds a way for us back together. I guess I’d like to know if I should wait it out and continue or cut it off because I don’t want it being like this. I’m very confused. God bless you all I hope you are all having a good week if you read all of that thank you! If any other questions please ask guys thanks 🥲

2023.06.07 00:58 rubenalamina The Division 2 Weekly Vendor Reset 06/06/2023

Hi there fellow agents. Here's the latest vendor reset information for The Division 2.

Notes

Sorry for the delay, I was out of town and did this as soon as I could.
See you next Tuesday.

Items on Sale

Here's the web page link for all the items available in the game. It will always be the same link. It's my personal website and I don't run any kind of ads.
https://rubenalamina.mx/the-division-weekly-vendor-reset/
I added a resources section with a map with 30+ locations to find the Snitch and a link to the datamined gear attribute sheet.

Cassie

Cassie is a gunrunner vendor that moves location every couple of days. To find her, you need to talk to Jared "The Snitch" Nash in one of the locations I have listed on my map. His location is random but it usually takes 2 or 3 location visits for him to spawn. After you talk to him, he will give you a bounty and Cassie will appear on your map with a shopping cart icon. You can do the bounty or save it for later, it's not necessary to browse Cassie's inventory.
She will open for 24 hours and will close to relocate for 32 hours. These are her open times:
  • Sunday 8:00 PM EDT
  • Wednesday 4:00 AM EDT
  • Friday 12:00 PM EDT
Besides her random stock, Cassie will always sell two named items: the Shield Splinterer assault rifle and the Hunter-Killer chest. In order to see these two items, you need to have opened the ivory chest at the White House and the Off-white chest at Haven. You get keys for these chest by killing the hunters in DC and NYC.

Resources

Timers Website

A couple of members of The Division Community Discord made a site that shows all the in game timers in your local time zone. It also has the open and close timers for Cassie so you can use it to check if she's open or not before you go find the snitch. The site can be accessed here: https://divisiontimers.com

Wiki Page

The link for the current weekly thread and the vendor items list is always available in the Vendor Reset Page in the community resources. You can find it in the top navigation menu of the subreddit. If you're on mobile, it will be on the sidebar.

The Division 1 Reset

Some of the guys and girls in the vendors team are trying to keep The Division 1 vendor resets alive. The sheet will be automatically updated when they are done, even if they haven't posted their weekly thread. I will add an edit with the link to their weekly thread when they are ready. These reset happen on Friday nights at 7pm EST.

Credits

The resets are brought to you by a dedicated team of fellow agents from this subreddit and The Division Community Discord. Thanks to u/DizNootz, u/Google-1234, u/Hurinzor, u/Duke_Shambles. u/Insecurity_exe and other volunteer agents who have been constantly helping. Thanks to u/BestNadeThrower for starting the sheet we are using for The Division 2.

2023.06.07 00:58 Zestypalmtree Pushed someone away and shouldn’t have

Hey guys, looking for advice here. I (26F) want to start and say that I am extremely ashamed of my behavior. Basically, I iced out this girl who used to be one of my closest friends because I was getting kind of tired of her constant complaining and victim complex. This all started a couple of years ago, and I decided to create some distance, because I was really focusing on myself (career, saving $, etc).
In doing this, I kind of got really cold to this person and at the time I thought I was just creating distance between people who didn’t have the same values as me. But looking back, I realize that some people develop slower or faster than others and that I could’ve extended more grace to this friend.
This person reached out to me multiple times to see if she did anything wrong and was so nice to me despite my behavior. About two months ago, we hopped on a phone call because she wanted to know what she could do to improve herself for future friendships and also was kind of asking if I wanted to continue the friendship or not. I kind of gave her the workaround, and wasn’t exactly upfront with her. Partially, because I was scared to have the honest discussion, and the other part of me was ashamed of my behavior upon reflection.
Now I kind of regret my actions, and want to reach out to this person or rekindle the friendship. I don’t know that we will ever be able to be as close. And that might be for the best. But as I get older, I realize that friendships are really important and that maybe I was having too high of expectations for my friendships. Do you guys have any advice on what to do or if it’s even worth reaching out? I am quite embarrassed by the whole thing.

2023.06.07 00:57 ComfortableSpell920 27[F5] the internet has been good Let's chat and make acquaintances. See yah

Hey there!
Great to meet you all! I'm a 27-year-old woman who spent over a year in the US, and guess what? My grandpa's American! So, I've got this cool mix of cultures going on.
You know, I'm all about that outdoor life, but recently I've been totally hooked on being a homebody. Working from home has given me the perfect excuse to dive into Netflix series and binge-watch like there's no tomorrow. Seriously, it's addictive!
Oh, and did I mention I'm a bit of an introvert? Yep, I totally dig my alone time. But hey, that doesn't mean I don't love connecting with people. Actually, I've found that chatting with older folks is pretty rad. Their wisdom and experience bring a whole new perspective to the table.
So, here I am, excited to be part of this awesome community. If you're into outdoor adventures, Netflix marathons, or just looking for a chill chat, hit me up. Let's have a blast sharing stories, laughs, and good vibes. Can't wait to connect with all you cool folks out there!

For the love of God, can we just have ONE platform that isn't censored-to-f**k because people don't know how to walk away from a keyboard and stop being triggered by literally everything? Not every social media platform needs a pseudo-F.C.C to baby-step everyone through their paranoid little lives.
Hate-speech is meaningless when you don't give power to a word or string of words. Sure, it's not good— but it's only a problem when you give it power by acknowledging it. Otherwise it's just some moron on the Internet saying mean stuff... Like that wouldn't happen otherwise.
The major point is that everyone is so short-fused that they can't handle anything other than echo chambers, and silence anything and everything they deem offensive. None of this was a problem back in, say, pre-2010.
We have a problem with conservatives of any type saying things we don't like... But we have ZERO-issue with Democrats inciting a racial divide and making bot accounts that pretend to be humans to run psyops on a populus of ALL. Honestly, that sh*t is way more dangerous in my view.
The P.C. Policing is a plague on the Internet for anyone other than protected classes. Normal people get caught in the crossfire from it too and get accused of heinous things all the time.

People have to stop begging for a web-based Mommy & Daddy to protect them when it drags down people caught in the crossfire who didn't need policing in the first place.
Snowflake behavior f*ked up YouTube comments sections to where they have an A.I. just to auto-wipe comments that don't even break guidelines (instead that just go against/question the force-fed narratives we are meant to accept blindly from our corporate overlords, or anything that could *potentially maybe offend like three people who won't accept anything else than 'NPC talkshow host')
YouTube is equivalent to the Great Firewall of China where it's constant surveillance of not only the videos, but policing comments too. It's a slippery slope into censorship of the entire Internet. We're already on that path right now.

2023.06.07 00:57 Coopscoop 2 Week old M3P and major software issues

I picked up my 2023 Model 3 Performance on May 20th. This past sunday, as I got in my car I noticed the gps was stuck on the location I originally had parked. I figured maybe no connection, but when I put on my signal to turn I noticed no camera appearing. I was about 200 miles from home and was extremely looking forward to having the cruise control on my way home. Instead I had nothing, I pulled over I did a soft reset, hard reset, and 12v reset. Tesla service says I have to wait a month for the factory firmware to update before they can do any diagnostics. After becoming very very upset telling them I drive 150 miles a day for work, and I live in a major city and parking is challenging without any sensors/ cameras I was finally able to make an appointment just to get a loaner so my car and sit and wait for an update. What a F**king nightmare this has been.

2023.06.07 00:57 jesuisuneyeyegirl Frank Darling Resizing

Hi! I’m in a bit of a predicament because my boyfriend and I bought my engagement ring and wedding band from FD (not custom) and we love them BUT we ordered too small of a size on both so I have two questions.
  1. Have you ever had a ring resized with FD? How did it go? Especially if you sized up. I’m just paranoid.
  2. How do I even go about figuring out my ring size cause I thought I had it sorted out but apparently I didn’t (for this company). The rings are both comfort fit btw.

2023.06.07 00:57 ScotlyDex Anyone successfully FSBO their house in PC?

I’ve had a house for sale for 6 long months. First 4 months was with an agent and last 2 months were after firing her for doing nothing. I listed it at a loss and have continued to drop the price slowly over time. I really can’t go much lower and it’s the 2nd cheapest house listed in its zip code. It’s a 2022 house and gorgeous inside but it’s a manufactured home so I am assuming people keep scrolling because of that. Has anyone successfully sold their home FSBO around here and if so how? Where all did you list and advertise? I have it on Zillow and FB marketplace right now. Not interested in an agent!

2023.06.07 00:57 GamingWithBilly EAP610-OD not connecting by mesh to EAP653

I'm putting my home network together, been using OMADA for a year at other location and I wanted the newer equipment for myself. So I bought the OC300 controller, a ER7206 v1.0, a TL-SG2008P v3.0, a EAP653 v1.0, and a EAP610-Outdoor v1.0
First thing I did was plug everything up, got networks configured, and made sure all equipment got it's upgrades to latest software.
When I unplug the EAP610-Outdoor unit from the TL-SG2008P, and use the POE injector to power the EAP610, it turns on, but it never shows up in the OC300 controller. It has the EAP610 listed as "Disconnected".
I've tried rebooting the EAP653 and EAP610 to see if that makes discovery work, but that doesn't work. I've also tried reseting the EAP610 and doing the direct LAN setup again, but once it's disconnected from LAN and powered by POE, it isn't being seen in the controller as meshed.
I have made sure MESH is turned on in the controller, so it isn't a simple mistake like that. Anyone got a tip I can try?

2023.06.07 00:57 joeluvsbuds I feel like I could be trans how do you know for sure?

As a gay man I have been questioning myself on and off. I know for sure I don’t identify with the masculine traits as much. Personality wise I feel like I am more of a female in that sense. So it feels like a threat when I be myself as a man because people expect me to be more masculine.
I remember memories of me dressing up as a girl when I was way younger and I question myself, did I enjoy doing that?
I started looking into makeup and I question if I look good in that
I started looking at what women wear and I question if I look good in that.
The thing is, some days I look good as a man but other days I feel like I enjoy looking like a woman and feeling like one as much as I can even though I’ll never be one biologically speaking.
It’s just that, I don’t like the fact that I am constrained by a gender when gender itself is a social construct. I can still be a female if I please but the thing is, I feel ultimately confused. I know for sure that I don’t want to get surgery to remove my you know what and I refuse to take estrogen pills. I just want to experiment more though. I’ve seen makeup videos, I’ve seen myself in a female filter, I’ve pretended to be like a female several times as a “joke” but now I am starting to question who am I really?
As a gay man I never was masculine dominant. I am more of a feminine bottom if that makes sense. I find empathy, compassion, and openness to new things much more compelling with the added bonus of looking like a female on some days.
What would you even classify this as? I am frustrated at myself that I can’t be the same gender that I was born into. Because society tells you otherwise. But I am tired of acting like someone I’m not. I am still a male but some days I want to dress up and live this barbie doll fantasy if that makes sense.

2023.06.07 00:57 Sassanidball Mourning a youth I will never have

Hi y’all,
I kinda wanted to make this post to see if other people would relate as well to me.
During my teenage years, I was just incredibly depressed. Between moving to a whole other country, dealing with my very emotionally abusive family, and my body being incredibly upset at what I looked like, I had no time to spare to actually enjoy myself. I didn’t care about my appearance, myself or anything. The only thing that mattered was having good grades, so that my parents wouldn’t harass me, and just floating through time in the hopes that I would magically feel better in the end. Logically, I did not partake in any of the usual teenager dumb stuff that other people of my friends would participate in, and quite frankly I did not care.
Fast forward in time, I am now a university student in biology. I have been medically transitioning for the past 7-8 months (started in October 2022), adopted a new chosen name with which I always present myself with, and try my best to look somewhat fem while still boymoding due to lack of funds to change my wardrobe. However, recently, I have been feeling like… like I don’t want to do anything anymore ?
I just want to get out there, do dumb shit and enjoy life. If I could throw everything away, go play guitar in a band and fuck around Kurt Cobain style, I would not hesitate a single second. The more and more time passes, the more these feelings intensify, and I am not sure whether it is the second puberty or just myself. This is where the mourning part starts.
The thing is that I can recognize those feelings-the same very hurried feelings I felt as a teenager, and it devastates me that I will never be able to do anything. In my early 20s, I am simply not allowed to do anything fun anymore without completely throwing away the rest of my futur anymore. I cannot just go fuck around, go party my butts off, or just experience what a girl would during her adolescence, and that has been weighing on me so badly recently.
I feel like my youth has been stolen from me by my male puberty.
Anybody experiencing this as well?

2023.06.07 00:57 BuddingViolette So My Mom Just Received THIS Today

I really didn't know where to post this but I really wanted to share since you all have been so wonderful.
Some context: I have not spoken to my biological father for about 15 years for many reasons, some of which will be explained shortly. Imagine my surprise when my Mom calls me saying "Hey I need to send you something". Below is the email I received with NO editing everything you see will be as it was sent.

Enjoy the madness:
i say "Heaven-OH" to Friends or, in THIS CASE, to my Son[As opposed to "HELL-O", which is reserved for the LOST, who will have Nothing More to look forward to...But H - E - double hockey-sticks!{Remember?] And the addition of the letter "O", is to draw attention to their Last Expression, when surrounded by the "Lake of Eternal FIRE"{Rev.20}, they FINALLY 'REAL-EYES'ed, that when they were alive and breathing HERE ON EARTH, when granted Life by the very "SOURCE OF LIFE", The Lord Christ Himself(!), they choose instead to REJECT His Love, Mercy, and FORGIVENESS! And REJECTED His Sacrifice, on what should have been, Deservedly, "our Cross".] Intrinsically, i said all THAT, because i love YOU Vinnie, miss YOU, and keep YOU in my humbled heart and mind. The expression of SORROW does not 'cut it', i know. It never did with Your Mother, so it's only natural to accept that in all likelihood, nor will it with YOU. Amazingly enough, even this old man can understand that. Even the likes of me! i don't expect any correspondence from You Son. In Truth, i don't expect anything{Not to sound mean-spirited}, only that You would come to KNOW "THE ONLY ONE" WHO CAN SAVE AND REDEEM US, WHO SURRENDERED HIS LIFE, FREELY, THAT WE WOULD BE FOUND GUILT-LESS, AND ACCEPTABLE IN THE FATHER'S SIGHT. BEFORE, YOUR LAST BREATH!♡ [Cold & Harsh...Maybe? HIS WORD... Nonetheless.] ♡TAKE GOOD CARE, Son.♡

So... yeah this is a thing that has happened. As I said we haven't spoken in about 15 years so he has no idea I'm trans, mid medical transition, have a wife, and we just had our first child. Needless to say I have no intention of sharing this information with him.

2023.06.07 00:57 Upbeat_Yesterday_645 I'm the happiest I've ever been

Just wanted to share a little bit of my story and my (unintentional) deconstruction. I'd love to hear more about others experiences and thoughts on their own deconstruction journeys!
I grew up in a conservative Christian home (evangelical w/ fundamentalist vibes). Church every Sunday and Wednesday, Awana, a small homeschooling stint (which my mom was in no way qualified to do) youth groups, church camps, etc etc etc. Lots of spankings, strict parenting, obey your parents above all else and rules rules rules. I never questioned my "faith" as a child but was extremely headstrong and butted heads with my parents ( who were hell bent on using fear to control us) throughout my childhood and into my teens. Quite frankly, I just did not like them and still don't. In addition to a less than ideal home situation, being a girl and having a big personality just doesn't mix in the church (as we all know). I was never the meek, joyful Proverbs 31 woman that was preached at me growing up and even though I was semi-involved in church in highschool and college, I always felt a disconnect and never felt like I quite fit in with my other Christian peers (realizing I didn't want to get married in my early twenties like my friends was one of the first alarm bells). While I never went through a huge rebellious phase, my interests and natural personality just didn't mesh.
After college, a bunch of stuff went down in my family and I just needed a break from pretty much everything in my past. I moved to a new city, started my career, and put two and two together that maybe a good move for me was to not put pressure on myself and quit doing things I didn't want to do. I stopped going to church, made all new friends (most who didn't come from religious backgrounds), and started living a normal post-grad life. I don't think I ever consciously thought that I wanted to deconstruct, it truly happened so naturally from utter burn out. I began realizing so much of what I blindly believed I actually don't agree with at all. I realized I didn't miss church and a lot of my friends I grew up with from home who are still super involved in that realm. I started therapy because of my difficult relationship with my parents and started questioning my childhood and pretty much everything I was taught. The rest is history.
It's been three years since I moved to a new city and I've realized I am truly living my life to the fullest sans religion. I've traveled, started dating (bye bye purity culture), explored my interests, and gotten to have fulfilling experiences that I otherwise wouldn't have had if I didn't move away from Christian subculture. I still believe in God and prayer, but am perfectly content to have a personal, private spiritual life without the church or involvement of anyone else.
It's so funny because my whole life I was taught I would never know true joy without Jesus and being fully devoted to him. I can honestly say, I am the happiest I have ever been since leaving/deconstructing. I am happier I ever thought I could be. And I realize how unhappy I was stuck in my evangelical church, constantly being compared, being judged and judging others, and just feeling like a giant failure all the time that I couldn't live up to all the rules and the way things should be done. I was so empty for so much of my life without realizing it. So shout out to deconstruction!

I found a lump, went to the ob, we thought little of it because I’ve had a bilateral mastectomy. Had the mammogram, then the ultrasound, then they “want to take another look” which…this isn’t my first rodeo guys. Had the biopsy. It’s invasive carcinoma. It has been a little over five years since my initial diagnosis. Had my “woohoo cancer free” party six months ago on my five year date. Three stints of breast cancer for two fucking bum ass tits. I should be ok. It’s a treatable common kind of breast cancer but mother fucker. This probably means medication for the rest of my life. Let’s just table that we just finished paying everything off from the first time around. I’m just so upset and I have to be fucking positive in real life and I just want to shout fuck in the air. My poor husband guys. His mom is dying of COPD and kidney failure and now we are doing this AGAIN. He’s a saint who should get a medal for still finding my mangled ass fuckable. I’m not even sad or scared yet, just pissed at the world and frustrated beyond belief. FUCK.

2023.06.07 00:57 Ok_Apartment13 Question 2023 A3 berline sunroof

Sorry if I’m not in the correct Reddit for this question.
I have ordered a a3 a couple of months ago and saw some videos where they mention that the panoramic sunroof is default included. I also read somewhere that it has been cancelled.
So that’s why I’m asking here directly: Does it come standard with a panoramic sunroof or did I find wrong information?
Thanks and sorry again

2023.06.07 00:56 medicallycursed56 Leukocytes and Blood in my Urine but no Infection

Female, 56, 165 pounds Diabetes Type II HPN Crohn’s NASH Acid Induced GERD Two very small kidney stones with no symptoms Gallbladder removed in 2020 Hysterectomy and bladder sling in 2015 4 back surgeries concluding in a very successful Lumbar fusion at L4-L5 in 2015 PTSD, GAD Surprisingly, no health anxiety but I’m curious about the following: Currently in the midst of treatment with a hematologist for 6+ years of constant high white blood cells counts averaging between 14k and 17k. Recent blood testing showed Sed rate of 41, CRP of 8.0, WBC OF 14.8, ANC 11278 Medications: Insulin, Metformin, Glimepiride, Losartan, Cymbalta, Trazodone, Simvastatin, Famotidin, Elavil (for GERD) - I basically do nothing for the Crohn’s as I have a very high pain tolerance, but I do have diarrhea, belly pain and vomiting daily. Vomiting has been much better since the introduction of Elavil. No allergies, but antibiotics in the same class as Ciprio set off extended pain in the area of the liver for weeks or months.
In the past four years, I have been hospitalized four times for UTI’s that turned into kidney infections. There were no symptoms until I started urinating blood. Since the last hospitalization 1 1/2 years ago, on two occasions, I had classic signs of UTI’s without visible blood in the urine. I sought treatment and each time, I was told I had an UTI because the urine sample had significant blood and leukocytes. However, I would be called a few days later to be told that there was no infection. No follow up from my PCP as to investigation of why I have leukocytes and blood in my urine. Should I be pushing this? Or just address it with the hematologist when I go in to talk about my blood results? Concern is bladder cancer.

2023.06.07 00:56 Dry-Independence4224 No blood return from implanted venous port?

33F, 5'1, 170lbs. Med history: MS, APLS, asthma, syncope, unspecified heart murmur, long list of surgeries related to traumatic MVA over 20 years ago; occasional smoker, social drinker. My GYN wanted to draw labs on me today but my veins are garbage, so I had an Xcela power port implanted in 2018. Nurses in her office aren't trained to access ports, so I was sent across the street to the hospital to have labs drawn from my port. The first nurse who tried, attempted twice to access it and missed it both times. Second nurse attempted about 5 times before finally accessing it after I showed her exactly where she needed to stick the needle to access it and held the port in place while she did so. Once it was finally accessed, she was able to flush it with salene with no problem. It was kind of delayed, but once she flushed the entire syringe, I was able to taste it, but she was unable to get ANY blood return. She tried drawing with a syringe, but all she got was some of the salene she had just injected. I moved position, turned my head and coughed, etc, and still nothing. I last had it accessed ~1 mo ago, just to flush + heparinize with no problem. I'm asking here because I have no idea what type of doctor to even ask about this or how urgent this could be. Any help is appreciated!
