People thinking lactate ringers will increase your potassium more than NS and avoiding it in mild hyperkalemia of 4.8 to 5.4 range. Gets annoying. Not to mention the hyperchloremic acidosis you get from NS. That's actually the mechanism that NS worsens hyperkalemia...through the acidosis. Whereas LR, a balanced solution, doesn't effect it. There's 3 RCTs that prove this.

Get a second job, a better paying job, or roommates? People who whine that every single job should pay a living wage are either delirious or entitled. All occupations are not equal, and therefore do not pay the same. Just like how all states are not equal when it comes to cost of living. So many people on strike were first generation immigrants. Why did they choose to move to the most expensive state in the country? There are plenty of states where one job is enough. Hawaii is not one of them, unless, as previously mentioned, you have a good job. Menial, unskilled labor generally isnt really seen as a good job here. So please, will one of you guys tell me why having a single unskilled job should be enough for you to live in the most expensive state in the country? Or why people cant simply have roommates? I just dont understand why some people dont realize that Hawaii is expensive is hell, and that there are drawbacks that come with living here.</quote> The previous generations had a living wage to go by, why cant us? Yall tell us not to *** about not having a living wage yet I constantly see baby boomers crying about millennials killing this industry, millennials arent moving out of their parents homes, millennials arent financing mortgages or cars, millennials have so much debt to their eyeballs, and etc.</quote> Because times and prices change? Or should I complain that I cant buy a nice 3 bedroom house in Kailua for $14K like my grandparents did? If millennials arent moving out, they can be saving for the future. But once again, Im not seeing an answer to my question...just deflection and bitterness.</quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!
