Found a deep cut on my cat and had to go to the vet. But it's not oozing or anything so it shouldn't be problematic to let it heal by itself. But I'm still worried about him :(

I hope it heals quickly.

Not good.

I have this awful pain in my neck that doesn't seem to go away. I first noticed it a week ago, and thought I must've slept in a shitty position, but it has since only gotten worse. Due to holidays I was unable to get a doctors appointment until next week.

Sure, I have a shitty seating position when on my PC, but I've had that for 25 years without a problem. Nothing changed last week, so I have no idea what's causing this.

In the meantime, paracetamol helps.

You should probably get a neck X-ray to ensure you don't have a vertebrae fracture.

I'm just having a hard time imagining how I would have contracted such a fracture. Plus the pain is more muscular.

You can have burst fractures due to osteoporosis.

I'm going to Italy in a month, and I had found a very good deal on a sleeper train. Just as I was about to book, I see that the last inexpensive cabin was taken and the price had jumped up by 200€.

I just booked my Lufthansa flight :(

Good so far, how about you Servais?

Pretty good, thanks!

I found out I have a great amount of coverage to get a crown for the tooth I broke last week, and it won't cost me out of pocket. So that was great news. My union recently arbitrated our contract and got us twice the coverage.
