Insight for young folks thinking about health care professions: I considered being a chiropractor years ago. Ultimately, I practiced optometry for 30 years...Optometry, chiropractic & podiatry are not compensated for the miserable 8 years of college & professional school. During the 4 years of grad school, my classmates from undergraduate, bought homes while I watched home prices rise. I bought a home for much more after graduating optometry school. Self employed doctors get no employer benefits. Self employed = no paid vacation, sick days, employer contribution to 401K, Liability insurance. Self employed doctors have to pay both sides of social security tax, while employed doctors only pay half of it. (12.4% for social security (old-age, survivors, and disability insurance) and 2.9% for Medicare (hospital insurance). Figure employer benefits as 30% of your compensation. My son is a commercial pilot and has great benefits and income of over $175,000. If you feel a spiritual need to be in optometry, chiropractic or podiatry, go for it; otherwise, don't put yourself through it ... Good luck and blessing to all.
But at women predominantly is non radiographic forms....with low values în inflamatories test as vsh , crp .. and not present in Rmn ...at young men Ankylosing Spondylitis is much more agressive with spine fusion ! After 60 years I know what I say.. !!
@@danplugaru8187 Not true. Men have more damage but women have more disease burden. If you read any UPDATED studies or medical articles it clearly states it is much closer to equal. You being 60 means you are living in the past. As I said, woman are often misdiagnosed. The disease affects the sexes different but that is about it. You are spreading disinformation that just isn’t true. I am pushing 50 and started symptoms in my teens. Women’s pain is minimized and pushed aside. I have AS NOT Nr. AS shows damage while Non radiographic does not. But disease burden is still the same. Time to get with the times. Fusion does not mean more pain. That is another myth!!
@@danplugaru8187 AS affects men and women closer to equally in NUMBERS not how disease progresses. I have high CRP, osteopenia, restrictive lung disease, scoliosis, ddd and others. If you read any UP TO DATE LITERATURE AND MEDICAL DEFINITIONS IT IS MUCH CLOSER TO EQUAL THAN ORIGINALLY THOUGHT. Not even close to the old thinking. 🙄 I already know men have more fusion BUT women have higher disease burden. Fusion does not mean more pain. Non-radiographic people can have just as much disease burden as people with AS. Most people nowadays never progress to fusion. I go to a chiropractor, physical therapy and walk. I am getting close to 50 and have been misdiagnosed for 20-25 years so I think I know a little bit about the subject. You need to get with the new research before you come at people because I have AS with damage and I’m a woman! So go do some research if you want to have a conversation!!!!!!
@@danplugaru8187 AS affects men and women pretty close to equal now. That is what UPDATED literature is saying. It may not affect men and women the same symptoms wise but that is not what I’m talking about. I am 45 and have been misdiagnosed for more than 20 years so I think I know what I am talking about. Also, fusion does not mean more pain. Men have more fusion but women have more disease burden. Also, with biologics and proper maintenance fusions are not as common. If you would like to have a conversation then I suggest you do some research.
I just had some osteopathic things done to me for the first time. It was awesome. One thing led to another, and first impression: I can see where this works. I am going back for more. 👧
Had my first treatment yesterday. It gave a lot of relief initially, but the next day, I feel like I have the flu. He did some lymphatic exercises also, so that could be why, but I feel absolutely awful. I’ve read this can happen, depending on drainage, but I’m hoping for relief soon. Glad yours helped you!
