Ah, yes, I understand since becoming so ill myself the importance of a complete history and work-up. That's a good thing. It's the inane or else detrimental, and often unsound pigeonholing or other unsafe assumptions that even medical staff make that drives me up the wall.
Nobody needs a degree to understand test results, really, just need to view the lines based on where they should be compared to where they are.
I'm glad I'm a smoker still, which should sound odd and irrational, but given it is an easy way to escape imprisonment (which really is, effectively speaking, what happens when hospitalized for mental health) and still slowly suicide, it works for me. I've pared it down a bit since last year sure, but I now think if I ever even have the chance for an easy stop, to one day wake up and never need or want it that I'd turn it down.
It's not like when theists condescendingly claim that means no life matters, plenty of them do, just not mine.
Meh, at least you've got physicians for now. I would definitely have a write-up of all meds, diagnoses, and treatments and time frames, type it and print out and laminate it before going. It's sooo important to have that list even when not going to a scheduled appointment because if an accident happens then they find it, it will help them to see what was one and what options they now have to narrow it down some.
It is ridiculous how many people there are, some of them even having major health issues, that don't keep an updated listing, don't have a living will, don't discuss anything with family on what they would and old not consent to, don't discuss palliative care or funeral or internment desires, and how many people would know of this and still get a judge to fuck over a dead person one last time because some cunt got to live a 'certain lifestyle' on somebody else's money (I read a case in Britain where a lady sued to have her mothers estate transferred to her even though the mom had specific instructions her daughter was to be cut off from for financial abuse due to the daughter refusing to make her own way in the world her whole life. The daughter won and the lady's money that was to go to charity went to a selfish cunt instead).
Fuck I wish I liked liquor. Bah, I'm due for more cigs today or tomorrow so it'll have to do.
Boy Oh boy, you and I have a lot in common. By the by, and I realize you may not wish to answer, but I am curious as to your gender. I get the idea (from experience here and elsewhere) that if I, a male (even though a candidly semi-femmy, trangender-y lipstick-lesbian trapped in a man's body) with moderate to slightly left & right leaning views, all depending on each individual issue and case, were to use the word cunt, I'd be read the riot act post-haste, by the PC police who dwell amongst us. It really doesn't matter, since I actually hate that word, and never use it, not even to my own private self, having heard a jacked-up asshat call my own mother that when I was a sprout.
It has happened so many times here over the years, this marginalizing due to sometimes casual things, like even referring to a certain person as "beautiful", even from the other side of the planet, that it makes my head spin.
Do women really dislike being told by a distant observer that they are beautiful? Is it THAT much of an insult? I note that it is in the UK, where they have this "body-shaming" campaign going. At Eratosphere, I was considered secretly misogynistic and even potentially
dangerous, because of a poem that had an elderly subject, a male, who was a little put off by seeing his sons' wives in scanty swimwear on a beach. By the way, there's a new article at the Pennsylvania Review about the drumming out of any save the rigid, ultra Left from the Sphere, penned by a woman:

Mind you, The Pennsylvania Review attracts not only prestigious poets of all political and religious varieties, it also attracts many asshats, like a certain Holocaust denier who shall go unmentioned, who uses the word "fags" a great deal in his shitty poems, and a certain Fire & Brimstone Calvinist, a former friend of mine from the Sphere, who also writes vindictive and just-barely competent doggerel railing against everything from gays to women to Islam, etc, etc.
/derail & rant (yes) over.
I think a feminazi would say calling a chick beautiful, depending on context and situation, is not okay, like ever. Personally, I couldn't care less if anybody found me or some guy or some trans-whatever pretty or beautiful, if that's of curse all they mean and/or depending on the situation.
I think the problem guys face, and girls get irritated trying to explain for 100th time in common sense language, is that just casually accepting a compliment like from one stranger to another that leads to trouble cuz then most guys, sorry but they do, think it's okay to reach for more. People hate rejection, think everything is a rejection, they also hate being noticed because that can lead to a dangerous situation and rather than learn to move quite, speak quiet and mark all exits and corners they'd rather other people have something like a 10 foot "free" space nobody is supposed to cross but that everybody should instantly come out of the womb knowing about.
Both chicks (ladies or whatever) and dudes (males) annoy me much of the time because it's not hard to be honest an nobody should take that as consent, or opportunity or permission for literally anything to happen unless it is expressly given and reiterated by both parties in a "just so I understand you, you either don't wanna or do wanna fuck/have sex/make love right?"
Feminazis are not feminists, but feminists have no interest in all genders/gender identities being treated as fairly as every other distinction should, save for active murdered/rapists/thieves/pedophiles versus inactive ones.
Bluh. My rule of thumb is I look for a way to say something honest and decent and good in a first impression, and if I have none I still try to remain within the scope of the subject/topic/person/behavior/belief/action while maintaining honesty.
I've never complimented a guy or girl on looks really, cuz I don't give a shit as long they have decent hygiene given particular parameters are in place first, decent footwear that works for the season, decent clothing that also works for the season no matter if bare or barley there or in a wool parka.
Cuz it doesn't matter when it fades, or make-up slides off, or hair is altered in color and cut, or eyebrows or lips thin out over time or wrinkles appear, that's gonna happen. An asshole or cunt being an asshole or cunt, however, has to do with how immoral and in what manner that person is being to somebody else or a whole group of somebody elses.
While I prefer compliments on me as a person, though, or my intellect, or one of my skills/jobs/ethics I generally ignore anything else because the reasons in the last statement not out of offense or fear.
A lot of women have already taken so much shit/pain/threats from BOTH, that's right both main genders because of their gender, and then if they are ugly, or attractive they get more shit, thin or fat even more stupid shit, etc etc. Guys also have stereotypes to overcome but it's mostly on aggression, inability to control their emotions/behaviors or their orientation, same as with chicks who aren't straight, but it is subtlely different for men in that it usually doesn't get to a point where the entire population of men either is or at least thinks, feels or acts as though they are stripped of their humanity simply because they have a dick and not a vagina.
Unless they're talking to a feminazis, because feminazis hate men. The people in America and in the UK usually complaining in public forums on gender identity and behavioral issues from or towards any gender are often just idiots who want to feel wronged because they grew within middle or upper middle class homes with both parents who were not assholes or cunts (any gender can be an asshole or cunt to me) but got mad when a chick, it's usually a chick, reminds them that beliefs lead to action/behavior, and actions lead to consequences and those consequences are still different simply based on gender or some other nonsensical thing that after 2 seconds thought doesn't matter to being treated different to anybody else.
Both the long and short of it is that it's not as simple as girls not liking a good compliment, nor is it as simple as they have good reason to not lie it, or to like it, nor should a guy think less of her or themselves for either of them having drawn a conclusion based on it as that should be a tentative position until somebody has the balls/vag to ask the right question to clarify what each of them means by words, action and behaviors they are suing in a given situation,
Okay, so that wasn't but the only on me that's short is my height, so yeah.
To conclude, I'd hardly use asshole or cunt or any other straight insult unless duly earned by the person, so the lady mentioned before getting a court to help her steal her mother's inheritance money that was meant to help troubled teens and single mothers and the homeless and the like, cuz her mom had it all spaced out to charities, is a cunt. Not because she got a court to hand her money her mother specifically forbade her having it but because she did it so she could have the same lavish, never had to work never wants to work lifestyle she got used to early in life before both her parents tried t get her on her own feet and cut her out of the living space and furnishings and then the Will.
To date, I've only met 5 cunts, and the rest of the hundreds or more that are either guys/dudes or girls/ladies/women are/were fine. Also, one of those cunts is a dude who is a cunt because he sacrificed his humanity, strength, morals, skills and even his children and all their safety so he could get the same exact pussy every night, as long as she agreed to give it to him whenever she felt like it, not when he wanted it. That guy was a cunt too.
To cap it off, if you still wanna know my gender I'm biologically female but psychologically/culturally/identity-wise gender balanced is what I'd say. I try to give all perceptions a shot, but I've always thought, moved, reasoned as both a guy and girl for so long I guess it stuck around and now I can't help but continue to do it.<shrug> It's just me, not in the sense I'm doing me, like 'you do you' as the young hipsters call it, I'm just me. That's all.
