Reverse: 1999 : Disabled Characters

The game doesn't stray too far on the neurodivergent allegory for the arcanists themselves. But at the same time, there are also inclusions of other characters who are very much known to be disabled. So for this post I'll delve into that, just a bit.

Now, there are 10 characters that I want to put in the spotlight. These mostly lean towards being canon, but a part of these are also researched upon and shortened so the post doesn’t become way too long.

Cristallo, Rabies, Erick : Chronic Illness

It's quite self explanatory that Cristallo herself has a chronic illness. She was born prematurely, with an added condition that makes her physically fragile. As seen in the game, she needs a life-support system to maintain her health when she's outside. It's also implied that her condition may be a recurrent cancer, as her arcane abilities are tied to a machine that provides cobalt therapy, a known advancement in radiotherapy in the post-WWII era.

Rabies is an odd case. In his stories, it's noted that Adam cured Alicia through unknown means at the cost of contracting rabies himself. However, instead of the virus being acute and guaranteed to be fatal, it becomes a chronic illness to Rabies due to the abundance and use of arcanum. And since the rabies virus attacks the brain, his cognitive capabilities and ability to recall things before the present had been impaired, making him rather docile and animal-like in nature as a result.

Erick, as revealed in her anecdote, has a hereditary blood condition that came with her arcane skill. With her arcane skill making her physically powerful, overusing it will accelerate the effects of her blood condition to the point that it can become fatal. To prevent this, she also inherited an armband from her grandfather, Harald. The armband suppresses one's ability to use arcane skills, but by extension it also prevents Erick's condition getting worse.

Shamane : Amputee

Shamane's circumstances are also self-explanatory. He lost his arm for unknown reasons, but after having lived without it for 20 years, it doesn't bother him anymore. However as we know, he crafted his prosthetic arm as a means to avoid scaring kids. (which I think is quite cool in itself)

Ms. Radio, Bessmert : Blindness

Ms. Radio and our new friend, Bessmert, are both canonically blind. Ms. Radio has stated that she cannot see, and asks Vertin to left in places where she can feel temperatures to make her feel at peace.

And as we know, Yenisei (or in other words, Yenisei's VA) has stated in the 1.6 livestream that Bessmert is known to be blind, but even with that, she's a great researcher and guide to her.

Mesmer Jr. : OCD [Content Warning: Mentions of Self Harm and Suicide.]

Mesmer Jr.'s character has heavily implied throughout the main story and her own to have OCD as a result of the traumatic experiences she had gone through from her field of work and her family’s history in it. She identifies that she has "incurable" anxiety, which causes her to think differently about arcanists and act a little irrationally from our own perspective. This anxiety results in double checking everything and having a slightly intensive routine.

This routine is created as a means to maintain herself and her own sanity, but an imbalance or interruption can greatly upset her. As a result, she has conflicting ideals, experiences hallucinations and panic attacks, has suicidal thoughts, and actively inflicts self harm as a means to cope with her anxiety. However, she’s calmer and at peace with herself when she's left alone in a quieter and clean space, away from others, and where nature is heard more than constant buzzing. In short, Mesmer Jr.’s mental health is really complex and would be better if it's explored in a separate post.

Baby Blue : Alice in Wonderland syndrome

It's no secret that Baby Blue has Alice in Wonderland syndrome, or in other words dysmetropsia. This affects her perception of reality and her ability to recall, but this in turn makes her arcane abilities all the more powerful. As a result, she doesn't realize that she's growing up, yet it seems she doesn't mind that much. This doesn't seem to affect her physically either; In fact, it has a heavy influence on how she displays her arcane skills.

Poltergeist : Social Anxiety

Poltergeist has been known to be anxious in social settings which conflicts with her people-pleasing tendencies. She's also insecure about herself which adds up to her not wanting to be directly perceived. At the same time, she doesn't like being left alone as a result of having been ignored and forgotten post mortem. Poltergeist is also elaborate (i.e. not wanting to be looked at for too long) yet awkward at the same time when communicating them.

However, I'm not sure how to describe Poltergeist's case quite well, but the idea of her having social anxiety resonates greatly in my mind, so it can be treated as a partial headcanon.

Balloon Party : Autism and Speech Impairment

Balloon Party as a child had contracted an illness that caused her to have a persistent high fever. In the end, she awakened her arcane skill this way, with her being able to cough up balloons that can be harmful or a cure to anything.

However, it might have also affected her speech because of the physical strain that comes from coughing, it results to BP's speech being a bit slow and having abnormal pauses before she speaks again. Though, this also might be a sign of her possibly also having autism, where rigid and uneven language development is a common pattern in how autism affects one's ability in communication. Her speech also has a pattern of echolalia, having a flat tone, and lack of control of it.

However, speech impediment isn't everything about autism, and there's a lot more about BP's character that also connects with it such as her special interests. I can better explore this in a different post, which will be explained below.

Last Notes

These are the characters I’ve written down, most of these are less headcanon and more of observations I’ve found when looking into these characters. Some people from the lore chat have also added their own insights on some of them. (Thank you lupjo for beta-reading through it and helping me out) 

Of course, there are a few more characters I want to discuss because of the implications of them having autism / ADHD, but these will be written in another post in the future because I still need to research and gather other information. Additionally, it would be an opportunity to talk about the connections between an arcanist’s and neurodivergent person’s relationships with modern society.

Congrats for reaching the bottom of this post, and feel free to add your own ideas or headcanons about the characters here and/or any other ones.

Understanding the Diagnosis and Treatment of Urinary and Reproductive Conditions By Dr mayur dalvi

The study and treatment of diseases of the urinary tract and the male reproductive system are the main goals of the medical specialty of urology. A wide range of illnesses, from straightforward difficulties like urinary tract infections to more complicated problems like prostate cancer, are treated by urologists, who are medical specialists who have completed specific training in this specialty.

The urinary tract is made up of several different organs, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The kidneys filter waste products from the blood and create urine. The ureters are tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The bladder is a muscular sac that stores urine until it is ready to be eliminated from the body through the urethra.

The kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra are just a few of the parts of the urinary tract that urologists are trained to diagnose and treat. The following are some of the conditions they frequently treat:

Urinary tract infections (UTIs): These are caused by bacteria that infect the urinary tract. UTIs can cause symptoms such as pain or burning when urinating, a frequent urge to urinate, and cloudy, dark, bloody, or strong-smelling urine.

Kidney stones: These tiny, hard crystals grow in the kidneys. They may also result in nausea, vomiting, and excruciating back, side, or lower abdominal discomfort.

Incontinence: This is a loss of control over urine that can be brought on by illnesses, nerve injury, and weak muscles. Aside from surgery, physical therapy is also an option for treating incontinence.

Prostate problems: The gland known as the prostate, which encircles the urethra, is in charge of generating semen. A weak pee stream, frequent urination, and trouble urinating are all signs of prostate issues, such as an enlarged prostate or prostate cancer.

Urologists also have specialized training in the male reproductive system, which includes the testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate, and penis. They treat a variety of conditions related to the male reproductive system, including Erectile dysfunction, Infertility, and Testicular cancer. Dr.Mayur Dalvi is a top urologist in Aurangabad. He is known for his excellent diagnostic skills and ability to provide effective treatment for a wide range of urological conditions, owing to his years of experience and wealth of knowledge in the field. Whether you have a urinary tract infection, a kidney stone, or an enlarged prostate, we have the expertise to help you feel better.

Finally, the specialty of urology focuses on the male reproductive system and the urinary tract. Urologists, who have received specialised training in this field, help patients with a wide range of ailments, from simple disorders like UTIs to more complex ones like prostate cancer. Dr Mayur Dalvi, one of the top doctors in Aurangabad, is well-known for his skill, depth of experience, and dedication to providing patients with the best possible care.

Dave was having difficulty. He was on edge, and unexpected loud noises caused him to jump. Even if it was just the dogs barking or something on TV, he had nightmares about being shot. As he slept, he remembered everything he had felt. He felt terrified and helpless. In one dream, he saw himself outside of his body, removing his shirt and using it to stop her bleeding. In another dream, he stood frozen in fear, watching people dive for cover from gunshots.

“Dave! Do something," Mike yelled at him.

He was unable to move, so he could not do anything. His eyes welled up with tears as he apologized to Bria, who was bleeding in her wheelchair. He noticed the colour fade from her face. Mike turned on the bedside lamp after hearing him cry. He noticed he was fast asleep and remembered reading online that he should not be woken up. Instead, he spoke calmly with him and assured him that he was safe.

He repeated this until his breathing slowed and his body relaxed. The next morning, he recalled portions of the nightmare. Mike begged him to speak to someone. Even if he was not immediately diagnosed with PTSD, he could talk to someone who understood what he was going through. He deserved to be mentally well. Dave wiped away his tears before agreeing to go. He thanked him and kissed his forehead, telling him how proud he was.

He was grateful to have a husband who understood and cared about his mental health. Mike did not dismiss him or tell him he was being a wimp. Instead, he listened and encouraged him. It made him realize how lucky he was to have married him.

He had his first appointment with a licensed PTSD therapist on Monday morning. He was nervous, and rightfully so. He felt both safe and at ease. It was as if he was meant to be there. He checked in with the front desk. She handed him paperwork to fill out while he waited. He took the clipboard and pen to his seat and sat. They wanted to know his name, birthday, address, insurance information, and contact details. He was also required to sign a release of information form and a HIPAA form.

He handed back the paperwork to the receptionist, who thanked him. His name was called soon after. After their introduction, he followed the therapist back to his office. His office contained his license to practice, as well as a camouflage hat with an ARMY VETERAN patch. Dave brought it up and inquired about it. He received it after twenty years in the military.

He retired because he was diagnosed with PTSD. When he got out, he had no idea what to do with his life. One of the veterans at the VA encouraged him to pursue a degree in trauma therapy to help others. Dave expressed gratitude for his service. He thanked him before asking about his situation.

Bria was in her newly assigned hospital room. She had been moved from the postoperative unit to the oncology unit to receive chemotherapy treatment. They treated her flu symptoms as she recovered from surgery. She still had a cough, though it was mild. Her fever had subsided, and she was back at normal temperature. She thanked the nurses for caring for her.

It was not a problem. Mike pushed her wheelchair behind her. He was overjoyed that she was being moved. She was still in pain after the surgery, but it was being managed with medication. The goal was to get her back on her chemotherapy medication because skipping a dose could cause the cancer to spread. When they arrived at her new room, the nurses gently lifted her and placed her in her new bed. Her room included a bathroom and a window with a sofa.

There was a tray beside her bed. It resembled a hospital room. Hopefully, they will only be staying for a few days. Brad was bringing a person he wanted her to meet. He failed to mention that he was friends with Jon Bongiovi in the 1980s and 1990s. They met at a Hollywood party when he was still a struggling actor. They gradually lost contact over time. It was not something they took personally.

They just got busy. They had to make long-distance calls before cell phones were invented. It was difficult to keep track of where they were because they both traveled frequently. Jon contacted us after obtaining his phone number from his agent. Brad was delighted to talk to him. They chatted and caught up for more than an hour. Brad brought up his girlfriend, who was battling cancer. Jon found out about his divorce through the media. He inquired about her and how they met.

He approached her because he wanted to work with her. They began working on a film together, and he immediately fell in love with her. She had an open marriage at the time. They began dating officially before her divorce. He lived with her, her brother-in-law, and his husband. They also had a house with three dogs and three cats. Jon laughed.

Now he was meeting Bria. She had a smile that covered her entire face. Mike introduced himself and invited him to join them. I appreciate it.

"I was just telling Bria about Princess, her cat, who was trying to get more treats."

"Dave spoils her too much," she quipped.

They laughed.

"I heard you have a lot of animals in your house. How many do you have," Jon inquired.

"I have three cats, Princess, Micha, and Henry, and a dog named Kate Spade. Mike and Dave have two dogs named Growler and Misty. They are Kate’s biological siblings. Princess believes she is the Queen of the House. She is Dave's favourite."

They laughed. Jon inquired about her dog's name. She named her after her favorite fashion designer. There was rarely a dull moment in the house because one of them was doing something all day. They frequently begged for more treats. When one of them said no, they looked around for someone to guilt. Did it work? No. They laughed.

Jon could sense her pride as she talked about her animals. Some people owned pets. Others owned four-legged fur babies. That was her. They were like her children, but with four paws and tails. The more she spoke, the more he could see what Brad liked about her. She possessed a magnetic personality. He could listen to her for hours without becoming bored. She was very young, but it did not appear to matter. He witnessed genuine love between her and Brad.

It made him think of his relationship with his wife, Dorothea. No, he was not a loyal husband. He had slept with several women in various cities. They had all signed non-disclosure agreements to protect him. He wanted her and Brad to have a long-term marriage free of infidelity because they both deserved it. They kept talking about whatever they could think of.

When Dave entered, they were introduced. For the first time in days, he appeared to have a weight lifted off his shoulders. Mike would speak with him later about his appointment. He joined the conversation and started joking around. She reminded him not to take her cat. He made a promise not to.

Exploring Andrology Surgery: Understanding its Scope and Significance

Andrology surgery, a specialized branch of medicine focusing on male reproductive health, plays a crucial role in diagnosing and treating various conditions related to the male reproductive system. From infertility issues to sexual dysfunction, andrology surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures aimed at restoring and enhancing male reproductive function. This article delves into the intricacies of andrology surgery, shedding light on its significance, procedures, and advancements in the field.

Understanding Andrology Surgery:

Andrology surgery primarily deals with the diagnosis and treatment of male reproductive disorders, encompassing both surgical and non-surgical interventions. It addresses conditions such as erectile dysfunction, male infertility, penile abnormalities, and genital trauma, among others. The field integrates expertise from urology, reproductive endocrinology, andrology, and sometimes, plastic surgery to provide comprehensive care to patients.

Key Procedures in Andrology Surgery:

Vasectomy: A common surgical procedure for male sterilization, involving the cutting or blocking of the vas deferens to prevent the release of sperm during ejaculation.

Varicocelectomy: Surgery to remove varicoceles, dilated veins within the scrotum that can lead to infertility and discomfort.

Penile Implant Surgery: A treatment option for erectile dysfunction, involving the surgical insertion of inflatable or malleable implants into the penis to facilitate erections.

Peyronie's Disease Surgery: Correction of penile curvature caused by Peyronie's disease through procedures like plication, grafting, or penile prosthesis implantation.

Testicular Surgery: Surgical interventions for conditions such as testicular torsion, testicular cancer, and undescended testicles (cryptorchidism).

Significance of Andrology Surgery:

Restoration of Reproductive Health: Andrology surgery helps restore male reproductive function, addressing conditions that affect fertility and sexual performance.

[ad_1] A lot has surprised Robert Johnstone in the past few years — breaking numerous ribs during a physical therapy session meant to help his back pain, losing three inches of height from a vertebrae compression fracture and receiving a cancer diagnosis at age 38.But the Department of Veterans Affairs denying his disability claim twice did not surprise Johnstone."I'm not overly pessimistic. I'm just kind of realistic about things," the 41-year-old Army veteran told Fox News. "The VA does not have the best of reputations at times."Johnstone is among the veterans still being denied benefits more than a year after lawmakers passed the PACT Act, a massive bill meant to help former service members exposed to toxins like the burn pits used to dispose of trash at overseas military bases. Critics say the bill left out numerous types of cancer and that the VA is still excluding veterans whose conditions are explicitly covered by the bill. The flames of a burn pit picks up with the winds as a storm approaches Combat Outpost Tangi in the Tangi Valley, Afghanistan, Aug. 31, 2009. (Staff Sgt. Teddy Wade/Department of Defense)‘LOOKING FOR SCALPS’: GREEN BERET NEVER CHARGED WITH A CRIME ENDS UP WITH MURDER ON BACKGROUND CHECKPresident Biden signed the PACT Act in August 2022. Previously, veterans had to fight to prove that their conditions were related to toxic exposures, resulting in a nearly 80% denial rate by the VA in 2020. The new law was meant to eliminate the burden of proof for veterans by establishing a presumptive service connection for dozens of cancers and other conditions.Service members would only need to submit proof of deployment during the Gulf War or the Global War on Terror to one of the countries listed in the bill.Jonathan Tatom didn't think much of the thick black smoke billowing from burn pits near Bagram Airfield when he deployed to Afghanistan in 2008."You burn everything in Afghanistan," he said. Trash. Porta potties. Munitions. Medical waste. Everything.But last year he noticed a lump on his neck. It soon spread from his Adam's apple to the soft spot just under his earlobe.He was 36 years old when his doctor diagnosed him with throat cancer, an ailment not generally seen in patients under age 55.‘TIME’S RUNNING OUT': CANCER-STRICKEN VETERANS STILL BEING DENIED BENEFITS AFTER BURN PIT BILL:WATCH MORE FOX NEWS DIGITAL ORIGINALS HERERadiation treatments burned his neck and scarred the inside of his throat. Tatom can no longer swallow solid foods. On his best days, he can drink coffee and eat yogurt, eggs or maybe even pasta. On his worst, he has to be fed through a tube inserted in his abdomen."It's really hindered a lot of things," Tatom said.Head and neck cancers were specifically included in the PACT Act, but the VA denied Tatom's claim, citing his longtime use of chewing tobacco.Around 30% of veterans reported using tobacco as of 2015, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Tatom's local veterans service officer told him that wasn't cause for denial under the PACT Act, so he appealed.The VA denied his claim again."Although your burn pit exposure is conceded, the evidence shows that your squamous cell oropharyngeal cancer is due solely to your extensive use of tobacco," the denial letter dated Aug. 7 reads. Radiation treatments caused severe damage to Jonathan Tatom's neck and throat. The 37-year-old Army veteran can no longer swallow solid foods and often has to eat through a tube inserted in his stomach. (Photos courtesy Jonathan Tatom)THIS SPECIAL OPS LEADER SECRETLY RAN A POPULAR MILITARY MEME PAGE — HERE'S HOW IT HELPED HIM DO HIS JOBTatom immediately reached out to the HunterSeven Foundation, which helps sick veterans find and pay for medical care. The nonprofit also informs military members about the health risks of toxic exposures."I was shocked," said Chelsey Simoni, an Army veteran, registered nurse and the executive director of HunterSeven Foundation. "This is the purpose of a presumption."Simoni said she reached out to the VA and was told they'd look into it. On Aug. 10, she shared Tatom's story on HunterSeven's popular Instagram page.Tatom received another letter 11 days later, this time stating the previous decisions were "clearly and unmistakably erroneous." The VA awarded him a 100% disability rating backdated to when the PACT Act became law. While he's happy with the final outcome, Tatom said it's frustrating that it took a public call-out to get the VA's attention."Honestly, I think it's kind of BS that the VA is not doing a better job," Tatom said.

Burn pits and other toxic exposures have been blamed for causing cancer among many post-9/11 veterans, leading Congress to pass bipartisan legislation expanding VA benefits. (Cpl. Samuel D. Corum/United States Marine Corps)CLAIMS BACKLOG AT VA WILL DOUBLE TO 400K AS WORKERS FACE INCREASED RISK OF BURNOUT: REPORTSimoni worried that using a veteran's tobacco consumption to invalidate a PACT Act claim won't just be a "one-off.""I feel like we will see, a lot of veterans are gonna fall through the cracks," she said.The VA says it has a 77.9% approval rate for PACT Act related claims, according to the most recent data from September. More than 500,000 veterans and their survivors have completed PACT Act claims since the bill became law.Until every veteran in this country knows what is available to him or her, and has come in and filed a claim, and then we’ve awarded that claim for him or to her, I won’t be satisfied — Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonoughEarlier this year VA Secretary Denis McDonough told the Associated Press that his agency is processing claims faster than expected."Am I satisfied? I’m not," he said. "Until every veteran in this country knows what is available to him or her, and has come in and filed a claim, and then we’ve awarded that claim for him or to her, I won’t be satisfied."The VA declined an interview request from Fox News, but wrote in an email that the department does not deny a presumptive service connection "due to lifestyle factors" like tobacco use.The department is processing claims at an unprecedented rate and has delivered more than $2.2 billion in PACT Act benefits so far, a spokesperson told Fox News. Nearly 5 million veterans have also received free, 10-minute screenings for toxic exposures, a key early detection step.

(Senior Airman Julianne Showalter/Department of Defense)THE ARMY GAVE THIS OFFICER A FALSE CRIMINAL RECORD, STUNTING HIS CAREER. NOW HE’S GETTING BACKPAYJohnstone's story began in 2007, during a 15-month deployment to Iraq. He didn't see the smoke from nearby burn pits for the most part because he worked at night and slept during the day. But he smelled it."We thought it was just smog, pollution [or] whatever in the air," he said. "It smelled dirty and chemical-like."Then in early 2020, he started experiencing back pain. His doctor sent him to a physical therapist. As the year went on, he broke several ribs during one physical therapy session. Another time, he felt searing pain while bending down to tie his shoes. His height was three inches shorter at his next doctor's appointment, and much later Johnstone learned he had suffered a vertebrae compression fracture."My body was generally breaking down," he said.Finally, in September 2020, he was diagnosed with the blood cancer multiple myeloma, a condition for which the average age of diagnosis is 69 years old.Johnstone was 38 with a 1-year-old son whom he could no longer hold or play with because of the damage to his body.He began treatment immediately, but didn't submit a VA claim until July 2021. That was before the PACT Act, so even though his doctor cited "airborne exposures from burn pits" as the likely cause of his multiple myeloma, Johnstone wasn't surprised to receive a denial letter.Multiple myeloma wasn't included by name in the PACT Act, but Johstone said the VA encouraged veterans to file a claim even if their specific cancer was not listed.In February of this year, Johnstone received a second denial."Even if a Veteran does not have a service connection for their cancer, we are here to help," VA Press Secretary Terrence Hayes said in a statement provided to Fox News. "We offer world-class, affordable cancer care to more than 56,000 Veterans facing a new cancer diagnosis every year, and we support more than 450,000 Veterans every year who are somewhere on the cancer care continuum – from screening to diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship." Robert Johnstone has been denied twice while trying to prove that his multiple myeloma is connected to burn pit exposure in Iraq.  (Photo illustration by Fox News)LEAKED VETERANS AFFAIRS TRAINING VIDEO PROMOTES ABORTION, SUGGESTS MEN CAN GET PREGNANTSimoni raised concerns that the PACT Act would still leave out many cancer-stricken veterans long before its passage. When she went to the White House for the bill's signing, she brought four guests. They included two Army veterans suffering from cancers not covered by the PACT Act, and one Marine Corps veteran who received a service connection for his lymphoma, but a 0% disability rating."The PACT Act is a dog and pony show," she said. "That public facing appearance is all they seem to care about … But time's running out, and these people are dying."The VA continues to expand the list of cancers it considers presumptive. Multiple myeloma is now among them, but is listed as a spinal cord cancer, not a blood cancer."That kind of flabbergasted me that they did that," said Johnstone, who is currently enduring his first relapse. His life now involves weekly chemotherapy infusions, daily pills and near-constant pain and lethargy.He's also preparing to submit another supplemental claim and is following the VA for updates after the agency announced over the summer that it would conduct a scientific review to determine whether certain leukemias or "multiple myeloma outside of the head and neck" are connected to toxic exposures and should be considered presumptive.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP"Please make a decision fast," Johnstone said. "Because honestly, we don't want to start dying off before a decision is made."To hear more from Johnstone, Tatom and Simoni, click here. Ramiro Vargas contributed to the accompanying video.

Uterine Bleeding Specialist in Alexandria VA

Unusual uterine bleeding can cause concern, particularly when you don’t know the cause. Seeking care quickly is crucial when this occurs outside of your regular menstrual cycle. Here’s how you can find the top uterine bleeding specialist in Alexandria, and what you can expect for diagnosis and treatment.

Abnormal Uterine Bleeding: An Overview

The definition of this condition is bleeding that is unpredictable in amount, timing, and duration. It generally happens outside of your regular menstrual cycle, but it can include bleeding during your cycle that is abnormal.

The causes include:

Hormonal imbalances that typically involve excessive estrogen or insufficient progesterone

Irregular ovulation

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

Polyps

Uterine fibroids

Cancer

Risk factors such as age and obesity can increase the likelihood of developing abnormal uterine bleeding.

What Exactly Does a  “Regular” Menstrual Cycle Mean?

A typical menstrual cycle is an important aspect of your reproductive health, yet it can manifest differently in individuals. It usually spans from 21 to 35 days, though some women may experience variations outside this range. The menstrual cycle comprises four phases: menstruation, the follicular phase, ovulation, and the luteal phase.

Menstruation, which marks the beginning of the cycle, entails the shedding of the uterine lining. This bleeding usually lasts for two to seven days, with an average blood loss of approximately 30 to 40 milliliters (mL).

The flow’s intensity may vary. It may start lightly, gradually increase, and then diminish. A normal menstrual cycle is characterized by regularity, predictable patterns, minimal discomfort, and consistent flow, all of which typically do not signal abnormal bleeding.

How Is Uterine Bleeding Diagnosed?

An exam by an experienced specialist, a gynecologist, is necessary to determine what’s going on. It’s necessary to rule out serious causes and to plan a course of treatment.

Your visit will begin with a discussion about your symptoms. You’ll be asked questions about your medical background, health conditions, and current medications. Be sure to have that information handy.

If you can fill out patient forms ahead of time, do so. It’s easier to do at home than in a waiting room.

You can expect a pelvic exam and a PAP smear. If needed, your specialist may also recommend any of the following:

Pregnancy test: To rule out pregnancy-related causes or miscarriage

Blood tests: To assess blood clotting and get a complete blood count

Thyroid test: To evaluate thyroid function, which can impact ovary function and bleeding patterns

Hormone levels test: To identify hormone imbalances contributing to abnormal bleeding

Hysteroscopic exam: Examining of the uterine lining for fibroids, polyps, or signs of cancer

Pelvic ultrasound: Visualizing reproductive organs for growths like fibroids or polyps

Sonohysterogram, or saline-infusion sonography: A sensitive imaging technique for identifying abnormal uterine structures

Endometrial biopsy: Collection of tissue samples from the uterine lining to detect cancer or precancerous cells.

How Is Uterine Bleeding Treated?

Fortunately, you have options when it comes to treatment. After a comprehensive exam, you can count on the best uterine bleeding specialist in Alexandria to recommend whatever treatment is suitable for your needs.

Depending on your diagnosis, medications may be recommended. These can include but aren’t limited to birth control, hormone therapy, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary.

You Can Find an Experience Uterine Bleeding Specialist By Following Simple Steps

Finding the right specialist may take time, but careful consideration is well worth the effort.

It’s a good idea to begin by seeking recommendations from your primary care provider. Friends and family may also provide referrals.

If you have insurance, check with your carrier to see which medical professionals are covered under your plan.

Look for specialists in your area using reputable online sources, such as health directories or medical organization websites. Many hospitals and clinics have directories of their medical staff on their websites.

Online patient reviews and testimonials can also offer insights into the experiences of other patients with specific specialists.

Ensure the specialist is board-certified in gynecology or a related field. You can typically verify their credentials through state medical boards or professional organizations.

What To Expect During Your Consultation With A Uterine Bleeding Specialist

Once you have a short list of potential specialists, schedule consultations with them. This will allow you to meet in person, discuss your concerns, and assess your communication style and expertise. Their approach should align with yours.

During the consultation, ask questions about their experience in treating abnormal uterine bleeding, their approach to diagnosis and treatment, and what treatment options they offer.

Remember, specialists with more experience treating uterine bleeding have encountered a wider range of cases and can offer a broader perspective on treatment options.

Choose a doctor with whom you feel comfortable and trust. Effective communication and a good doctor-patient relationship are essential.

Consider where the specialist practices. Hospitals and medical centers vary in terms of resources and services. If they perform surgical procedures outside of the hospital, vet the facility they use.

Ensure that the specialist accepts your health insurance and that you understand the billing process.

Understanding The Symptoms, Causes And Treatments Of Hydrocephalus

Understanding The Symptoms, Causes And Treatments Of Hydrocephalus

The medical ailment hydrocephalus is caused by an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain. Symptoms include headaches, nausea, vomiting, impaired vision, and difficulties with balance and coordination. 

Hydrocephalus can progress to more severe symptoms such as seizures and cognitive impairment if neglected. The causes of hydrocephalus can range from inherited disorders to infections or brain injuries.

If you seek the best hydrocephalus treatment in Bhopal, go beyond Bansal Hospital! The doctors are professionals in treating this ailment and provide excellent care to all our patients. With our cutting-edge facilities and sympathetic team, you can rely on us to assist you or a loved one in managing hydrocephalus and living life to the fullest.

Understanding Hydrocephalus 

Hydrocephalus is a medical disorder described by an abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) accumulation within the brain's cavities. It is a transparent fluid surrounding and cushioning the brain and spinal cord, supplying nourishment and eliminating waste. 

There is an imbalance between the generation and absorption of CSF in hydrocephalus, resulting in its buildup and increasing pressure within the brain.

It is vital to remember that hydrocephalus is a complex disorder with varying prognoses depending on the underlying reason, the severity of the symptoms, and the promptness with which it is diagnosed and treated. Early detection and care are critical for maximising outcomes and reducing potential problems.

Causes Of Hydrocephalus

The following are the significant causes of hydrocephalus:

1. Impairment

A stumbling barrier inhibiting cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow is the most prevalent cause of hydrocephalus. This restriction can be caused by inherent structural defects such as aqueductal stenosis (narrowing of the cerebral aqueduct) or acquired disorders such as brain tumours, cysts, or infections.

2. Overproduction Of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF)

Hydrocephalus can arise in rare circumstances due to an overproduction of CSF by the choroid plexus, which creates CSF. This overproduction has been linked to some cancers and other disorders.

3. Absorption

Hydrocephalus can also be caused by the brain's inability to absorb CSF. This can be caused by meningitis, brain haemorrhage, or past surgery.

Hydrocephalus Treatment

Hydrocephalus therapy consists of the following steps:

1. Shunt Positioning

Surgical shunt installation is the most common treatment for hydrocephalus shunt devices. A shunt is a flexible tube implanted into the brain's ventricles to redirect excess CSF to another body organ, most commonly the abdominal cavity or the heart.

This assists in regulating the flow and relieving strain on the brain. Shunt systems can be programmable or non-programmable, requiring constant monitoring and possible adjustments throughout a person's life.

2. ETV (Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy)

When a blockage in the cerebral aqueduct develops hydrocephalus, an alternative surgical treatment known as ETV may be performed. 

This method involves creating a hole at the base of the third ventricle to allow cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flow directly into the subarachnoid space, bypassing the blockage.

3. Ventriculoperitoneal (VPS) VS Ventriculoatrial (VAS) Shunt

Individual factors such as age, medical condition, and patient preference influence the placement of ventriculoperitoneal and ventriculoatrial shunts. CSF is directed to the peritoneal cavity via ventriculoperitoneal shunts, whereas it is directed to the heart's right atrium via ventriculoatrial shunts.

4. Additional Treatments

The underlying aetiology of hydrocephalus may necessitate tailored treatment in some circumstances. If a brain tumour causes hydrocephalus, for example, surgical removal or radiation therapy may be required. Infections that cause hydrocephalus may necessitate antibiotic or antiviral therapy.

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) is a disorder marked by aberrant cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) accumulation in the brain's ventricles, resulting in enlarged ventricles. 

NPH, unlike other kinds of hydrocephalus, is distinguished by normal intracranial pressure. It primarily affects older persons and is frequently the result of an unknown aetiology. NPH mainly affects elderly folks, usually those over 60; however, it can sometimes affect younger people. 

Symptoms Of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) 

1. Disturbances in gait

2. Impaired cognition

3. Incontinence of the bladder.

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus Treatment

1. Surgically implanting a ventriculoperitoneal shunt to drain excess CSF and relieve symptoms.

2. Rehabilitation may be required to improve function and quality of life. While treatment responses vary, careful management and monitoring are required for the best results.

The Final Say

Hydrocephalus is a complex neurological disorder described by the buildup of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain's ventricles. It can have various symptoms and causes, including structural problems, tumours, or infections. 

For treating hydrocephalus and enhancing the quality of life, timely diagnosis and effective treatment, frequently necessitating surgical intervention, are critical. Regular check-ups are required to address issues and ensure that shunt systems or other treatment modalities operate correctly.

Furthermore, you might get treatment at the Bansal Hospital's neurological department in Bhopal. You will be provided with all required facilities and guidance from healthcare professionals.

Cee lost 68 pounds

New Post has been published on https://eazydiet.net/cee-lost-68-pounds/

Cee lost 68 pounds

Transformation of the Day: Cee lost 68 pounds. We started following her transformation journey in 2017. Over the years, she faced the loss of loved ones, PTSD, depression, and the challenges that come with a busy life and a growing family. Despite all this, she was able to prioritize her health and fitness.

Social Media: Facebook: Cee Duncan Instagram: @naturally.cee

It was January 27, 2017, when I submitted my initial submission to BWLW. For those of you who are not familiar with my story, let me catch you up on my backstory: My fitness lever was placed on the back burner because everything else was more important at the time: 

Working full time

College classes full time

Managing my own growing family 

And being one of three caretakers for my aging parents. 

Looking back on it all, I would’ve done exactly what I did. However, as life often does, my juggling act would eventually lose its balance. 

I lost my mother in 2009. Then, in 2012, I lost a sister to suicide and my dad from bone cancer a few weeks later. I would eventually develop PTSD and depression, which forced me to take months away from my job. 

With the help of a wonderfully gifted psychologist and medicinal therapy from the VA, I managed my fledgling mental illness. It was a few years afterward before I felt normal and could focus on my physical self. My “house” wasn’t normal. I was 5’2″ and weighed 196 pounds.  

My 2014 fitness journey began with a Zumba class at the Hayes-Taylor YMCA. My eyes were drawn to how everyone exercised together and had fun doing it, as well as the encouraging smiles of the group teacher. Everyone was doing something a little different, and it didn’t matter. I was hooked as soon as I eased into the back row and got lost in the music. 

In the next few years, I would become a Les Mills Body Pump Instructor, a Silver Sneakers Instructor, and a Certified Personal Trainer. I wore a size 6-8. I was feeling great! I never thought I would do this in my 50s. I weighed 140 pounds and felt amazing! 

Then Covid. The world stopped. And I wasn’t sure what to do.

I am naturally a social person, but as much as I tried to wing it on my own around my family (I became a proud grandmother during the Pandemic), the continued isolation and my carefully cultivated routine added to my depression. Twenty-five pounds seamlessly crept back on. I couldn’t go to church. I gamely walked and did online classes. I kept on trying, and my mind was eased. My control was gone.

As the world slowly opened up in mid-2021, so did my heart. The Y’s classes resumed outside and inside the gym. As we masked and socially distanced, we all cautiously came together with a common goal: to become what we once were or as close as possible.My goal before and now is the same: to be my best self. To FEEL better.

I began with a prayer to my Lord because a “weight journey” is a stressful undertaking. I started taking (in my case, “teaching”) three classes a week. I remember how hot it was outside, but I was so happy to move. As I found my footing, my confidence in myself and my ability to regain control over my body returned. I ceased focusing on the end result. Instead, I focused on my strength; at 61 years old, I needed to! My weight slowly came down, and with sensible portion control (no pills), lots of water, and less fried foods/more veggies, I returned to my pre-Covid weight of 128 pounds. Because I am older, I was able to lose those pounds in about a year.  

My fitness routine consists of teaching six classes weekly (Thank God for Les Mills Body Pump!). I have both the socialization and the energy of the class to drive me. It’s a win-win! I also walk with my husband and with my dog.

My “a-ha” moments were simple ones: my inner thighs stopped rubbing together. It is much easier to climb up a set of stairs. A few months ago, I was with my grandson, and it was huge! As much as I love my many selves, I have mad appreciation for it now. I am healthier, adventurous, more energetic, and living life with all I can. (Can I say “skydiving”??)

To that sister who’s ready for change: before you became someone’s sister, friend, girlfriend, fiancee, wife, mother, coworker, boss, employee, confidant, etc., it was you. We, as women, are taught to be selfless and to place ourselves last. You are one of The Lord’s babies, and she needs attention as well. Keep moving. Find something you like to do and do it. Invest in you. Believe in your own hype. Don’t stop. Never give up. You are precious. You are worth it. DO YOU.

Advancements in Cancer Vaccines: Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment in 2023

Introduction:

Cancer continues to be one of the leading causes of death worldwide, driving researchers and scientists to explore innovative approaches to combat this devastating disease. Among the breakthroughs in recent years, cancer vaccines have emerged as a promising strategy to prevent and treat various forms of cancer. As we enter 2023, significant advancements in cancer vaccine research have sparked renewed hope in the fight against this formidable foe.

Harnessing the Power of the Immune System:

Cancer vaccines work by stimulating the body's immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells. They can be classified into two main categories: preventive vaccines and therapeutic vaccines. Preventive vaccines aim to protect individuals from developing specific types of cancer, while therapeutic vaccines are designed to stimulate an immune response to attack existing tumors.

Innovative Approaches:

In recent years, scientists have made remarkable progress in developing cancer vaccines that utilize cutting-edge technologies. One such approach is the use of mRNA vaccines, which have gained prominence during the COVID-19 pandemic. mRNA vaccines carry instructions that teach cells how to produce specific cancer antigens, triggering an immune response against cancer cells bearing those antigens. This technology has shown promise in clinical trials for various types of cancer, including melanoma and lung cancer.

Another groundbreaking development is the use of personalized cancer vaccines. These vaccines are tailored to an individual's unique tumor profile, incorporating specific antigens derived from the patient's tumor. By targeting the patient's specific cancer mutations, personalized cancer vaccines have the potential to improve treatment efficacy and minimize side effects.

Combination Therapies:

To enhance the effectiveness of cancer vaccines, researchers are exploring combination therapies that harness the synergistic potential of vaccines and other treatment modalities. For instance, combining cancer vaccines with immune checkpoint inhibitors, a type of immunotherapy that releases the brakes on the immune system, has shown promising results. This approach unleashes a robust immune response against cancer cells and enhances the long-term benefits of vaccination.

Furthermore, oncolytic virus therapy, which uses genetically modified viruses to selectively target and destroy cancer cells, can be combined with cancer vaccines to amplify the immune response. This combination has demonstrated improved tumor control and prolonged survival rates in preclinical and early clinical studies.

Clinical Successes:

The advancements in cancer vaccines are translating into real clinical successes. In 2023, several cancer vaccines have shown promising results in clinical trials. For instance, a therapeutic vaccine for high-risk melanoma patients has demonstrated a significant reduction in the risk of recurrence. Similarly, preventive vaccines for human papillomavirus (HPV) have successfully reduced the incidence of HPV-related cancers, such as cervical, anal, and oropharyngeal cancers.

Moreover, ongoing clinical trials are investigating the efficacy of cancer vaccines in treating a wide range of malignancies, including breast, lung, prostate, and pancreatic cancers. These trials hold great promise for the future of cancer treatment, potentially transforming the way we approach this complex disease.

Challenges and Future Outlook:

While the progress in cancer vaccine research is remarkable, challenges remain. Developing effective vaccines against certain types of cancer, such as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), which has proven highly resistant to immunotherapy, presents significant hurdles. Additionally, ensuring affordability, accessibility, and widespread adoption of cancer vaccines globally poses challenges that need to be addressed.

Looking ahead, the field of cancer vaccines holds immense potential. As researchers continue to unravel the complexities of the immune system and refine vaccine technologies, we can anticipate even greater breakthroughs in the coming years. With each advancement, we move closer to a future where cancer vaccines play a pivotal role in preventing and eradicating various forms of cancer, bringing hope and relief to millions of lives worldwide.

Conclusion:
