  • I’ve broken an arm, neck, and a leg. I’ve had gall stones (actually worse that the others). I had kidney stones and was being constantly asked my pain level and was just on my phone and calmly said ‘seven’ and they didn’t believe me, until they got the CT results of the three 7-9mm stones lodged my ureters. The nurse was confused and I had to explain to the doc on call they needed to remember that things are all relative. Once they saw my BP edging toward stroke level, they brought out the meds.

    It is complicated to be honest in medicine, isn’t it.

    I’m an atheist, and that reply is kinda coming off as assholary.

    Modern Catholicism has a lot to critique, but their support of science has been really good, especially compared to fundamentalist religions in the US.

    As for the explanations for terms (handwaves), I’d say the Talmud started that long ago.
