heights of ignorance

heights of ignorance-

a private physician writing NIMHANCE instead of NIMHANS in his reference letter to us...

he doesnt deserve to live on this planet!

p.s-

bored of life/internship!!

overconfidence kills....

butter fingers

flash back-

When i was in school and playing cricket i was a terrible fielder and known for throwing easy catches away..i still remember my bros[especially my twin] shouting their ass off @ me for leaving those silly catches...guess tht trait has continued till today....

curent situation-

on sat while on duty had to conduct one delivery[due to some peculiar reason] and when was all ready to catch it[baby] and  fraction of a sec after she delivered i find my hands totally empty...baby had just slipped and fallen into the bucket...[umbilical cord had prevented it from falling off completely]

p.s-

luckily baby was fine and nothing unexpected happened...:)

what people say

Patients to male interns-doctre

Same patients to female interns-sister,aunty....lol[which obviously pisses them off so badly]

i so pity my female collagues...lol:P

my name is...

While working in wards[obg] i come across many people with so weird funny names...like this one lady whose name was "Akkamahadevi"...looks like her parents were too impressed with the goddess and wants to  recite it their whole life.Likewise i have seen many couples where husb's and wife's names sound so similar like Gangappa/gangamma,manjunath/manjula,Mangappa/mangamma etc....dont know whether they married for their names or changed it after marriage....

p.s-

my close friend has contracted swine flu while he was on duty...and luckily has managed to get 10 days leave with attn[that too in med]....everytime i mess him he tells me that he is fine and enjoying his life like never before...lucky dog!!

lateral thinking

uses of IV[intraveneous] fluids....

1-N.S-use it for face/hand washing in case ur duty room water supply is cut[like today]

2-D.N.S-cold it and use it as drinking water.

3-as iv fluids.....

p.s-

1-my duty room water supply sucks....while brushing my teeth today had to run for water and fially used ns which my friend had kept in the room...

2-some quite pretty mallu sisters r there in my wards[ppc]......some soothers for my eye balls!!..:D.

happy diwali:)

When i was a child,i spoke as a child,

i understood as a child,I thought as a child

But when i became a man, i threw chidhish things away -

p.s-

1-happy diwali:))

2-miss those crackers/sweets!![though i have lost interest in bursting them]

3-finally getting an off today....something to cheer abt!

costly shot

gave a RhoGam injection to a just delivered[LSCS] lady today which happens to the costliest inj i have given till date...2ml inj=roughly 1.5k

House M.D s06

go to wards>write tons of discharge cards>then to duty room-gossip/eat/drink coffee>come back home by afternoon....

atleast its better than those stupid 12 hrs labour duty shifts...but i miss those cute babies:(!!

p.s-

any one watching house s06??..it totally rocks!!

write,write.....

after deliveries now its time to send them packing home...thats wht i did today and will be continue doing it for next ten days[rotation]...we have wards now for another one month and many cases which i saw[read delivered!] few days back seems like were getting discharged today and so had to write the discharge card summaries....overall i think[ward works] are far better than labour duties.Atleast no more frustrating 12hrs shift,cheap sleep and shouting till patients hear and come for daily rounds.

p.s-

when told many among relatives were unable to digest the fact that i had conducted so many deliveries...they just think i have just assisted[which i  havent]/witnessed or may be bluffing abt the whole thing...lol....on the other side there r quite few ones who get really surprised and keep asking me how i did/do that etc....[:D]....

short and sweet

at last labour duty over...total was 58!!...wht a relief...[but i miss those babies:(]

leaving for shimoga today to attend my cousins marriage...guess i need a brk after a month of heavy work...

p.s-

a patients attn who were happy with the baby[which i delivered] distributed us sweets in the ward...!!

still not out

tomo being my last day in clw[clean lab ward] makes me really happy,nostalgic and satisfied.....happy coz no more 12hrs/day duty[which i hate the most],nostalgic coz delivering and making babies cry[just love them to pinch!..lol] will always be a sweet memory to me and satisfied coz i always wanted to learn this[conducting labour] and am content with my count[50 till now] and hope tht some day some parent rememberes me for wht i have done to them:)

p.s-

when making a cpr to a baby with a paediatrician few days back i realized that 23 yrs ago i was in tht baby's position[me being prematurely born had to be in nicu for a month] and now tht same baby is in a position to do the same on others....indeed life is like a ....
