Not going to lie LLMs give pretty solid medical advice. They are trained on huge medical datasets. Works well as long as you have a common problem.
That’s dangerous, that could be sexual transmitted disease 💬🤔or kidney diseases
Let’s not rule out bladder cancer.
USA moment
Maybe bro just eats a fuckton of beets
Can relate, my dad sees ‘going to the doctor’ as a personal weakness und thus rarely goes.
Many if not most men are like this. It’s usually their wives or another woman in their lives that drags them in when something is about to fall off. It’s another way in which husbands leave 71% of a household’s ‘mental load’ on their wives, down to their own well being.
So that’s why I accomplish nothing and only have 29% well-being is I don’t have a wife to do it for me…
side note haven’t been to the doctors in years and last time I went it’s cause my girlfriend made me… at the same time, I’m the reason she could find her car keys, so fair trade, I guess…
That’s a whole part of my cynical conservative upbringing that I have to consciously work against.
You can’t do the obvious thing you’re SUPPOSED to do. What are you, some kind of sucker and/or [gay slur]?
I was shitting blood, turned grey, and fainted in public. I did go the hospital. They literally said “idk” and sent me home with a 4000$ bill. It kept happening.
Went to a specialist that also resulted in a literal “idk”, and they wouldn’t clear a colonoscopy because I am “too young” and “don’t have a family history.” I was begging them to figure it out because this was a fucking nightmare. Nope. At least the bill was 400$ this time around.
It kept happening for over a year at random. Actually terrifying.
FINALLY, I put myself on a diet of oatmeal and water for a month and slowly introduced new foods every week. I was curious to know if maybe certain foods triggered it?
Turns out: yes. I triggered a reaction using one of my favorite foods/ingredients. No idea why, but I had developed some kind of severe intolerance to it. And I had to figure it out myself.
You can’t just not say what it was
Green onions.
Oh nooo that’s so good, is it just green ones?
Ye! It’s very strange. I haven’t noticed an effect from standard white/yellow onions or anything. Just green onions.
Ever since I cut them out of my diet, I’ve never had an issue since.
I did love green onions… but I also love not shitting blood and passing out in front of strangers.
I prefer passing out in front of strangers and then shitting blood personally. Try it in that order you may be able to enjoy green onions again!
Broken glass
Probably chicken bones. I’ve heard of people who like eating them have serious issues.
Do not eat bones. Seriously people, I can’t stress this enough!
I don’t eat chicken bones on the regular, if at all.
But turns out it was green onion.
My condolences! I love green onion! That’s a really weird food reaction!
Aw man, one of my favorite parts of chicken wings is eating the marrow on the ends :(
You can eat the cartilage and the marrow. That’s fine. Just don’t eat the bones. You can’t digest them and they’ll tear up your intestines!
Not many chickens where he lives I’d guess. Maybe it’s fish bones? (His username is SharkEatingBreakfast… and Im explaining a dumb joke… Fuck)
It was definitely something weird that everyone would tell them was the obvious thing.
“I just like dipping my fries in crude oil. What of it?”
“I had recently switched from salt on my tomatoes to crushed glass for the extra crunch.”
I’m currently pissing blood on the regular and I have free healthcare, so I think this is more of a “dumb dude” thing than an “American with an overdraft” thing.
I will go to the doc eventually, but I need more. I can’t be turning up there with one thing to report. I need stabbing pains, memory loss, night terrors and maybe some jaundice before I pick up the phone.
I know I can’t die early, because I’m not getting off that easy. So I’m safe for the time being 👍🙃
Holy fuck just go to the doctor so at least they can do simple blood work and make sure it’s nothing obvious. I pissed blood once, turns out along with the leg pain my kidneys were about to shut down. Go to the fucking doctor
Look at Constantine over here, cursed to live.
Painless gross haematuria is one of the most common first signs of bladder cancer. A very treatable cancer for most people. Peeing blood for no reason can be bad. It can also be beats.
Can confirm, dude is indeed dumb ;-)
If symptoms linked to kidney failure isn’t enough to send you to the doctor…
no, stupid questions!
probably a man living in USA
Guaranteed, anyone with access to real healthcare would’ve had that checked out immediately.
Yeah we all know older european men aren’t stubborn about anything and would go to the doctor at the first sign of anything
but it would take effort to go to make an appointment
Mr. Rockefeller over here seeing doctors
Can you really piss blood?
Piss is blood, in a sense. It’s the bits of your blood that get sieved out and rejected by your kidneys.
Normally those are the only bits supposed to be getting out. But if the filter is busted (kidney trouble) or if the walls of the storage tank it sits in after filtering become damaged (bladder trouble), you can end up pissing actual, unfiltered blood.
Alternatively, you ate something recently with a strong red pigment that can survive digestion, enter the bloodstream, get strained out by the kidneys, and collect in your piss in high enough concentration to turn it red. Beets are a pretty famous culprit.
Not only bladder cancer but a whole bunch of things. I used to run home from work and I would always pee right beforehand so I wouldn’t risk having to find some sort of place to pee, but then I started peeing blood every couple of weeks when my mileage went up to around the 10 mile mark. Apparently hematuria can happen from basically having a totally empty bladder chafe itself raw if you run long enough lol. I quit peeing before leaving work after my doctor recommended giving that a shot and it cleared up
Yeah, bladder cancer.
Yeah I’m pretty sure that’s a key sign of kidney failure. It can happen rarely in cases of some crazy workouts, but if this dude is saying all the time then it’s probably something worse.
Also could be a UTI or STI(s). Or he eats beets all the time and isn’t particularly bright. Could be anything, spin the wheel of medical disasters!
Friend of mine had strep throat as a kid and it somehow ended up infecting his kidneys causing him to piss blood, he’s fine now.
It can happen rarely in cases of some crazy workouts
If anyone’s curious about why:
Muscles break down during workouts. They release myoglobin, which is a large protein. The kidneys can usually filter it in small quantities.
If you go too hard and give yourself rhabdomyolysis, your body releases a large quantity of myoglobin and it overloads the kidneys. Large proteins begin passing through the nephrons en masse and damaging them because they’re too big.
Now your kidneys are unable to filter properly because the nephrons cannot contract to prevent excess fluids or particles from going into your urine.
Large proteins begin passing through the nephrons en masse and damaging them because they’re too big.
Just in case this isn’t enough warning, note that this can permanently reduce your kidney function and harm your body in other ways as well.
I know it’s very unlikely for anyone here to do this, but if this happens you aren’t just having a “crazy workout” you are giving yourself an injury and possibly permanently affecting your future health. So please don’t exercise until you piss blood.
but i don’t wanna have kidney failure :(
