Work update

A bit of an update with work

I have, like most do, taken the "new job" in my stride and I quite enjoy it. I couldn't do it for a living but as a weekend reprieve, it is great. I am getting a lot of exposure to radiology (not literally!) which I otherwise wouldn't get. One of my favourite parts of the shift is when I take a patient to get a CT or radiograph, I get to not only see the indications for the scan and later follow up in how they were treated (at least in emergency) I actually get to see the imaging and pathology real-time.

A bit of a scandle a while back (if you are one to assume). A gent was brought in by his wife with a broken penis (that's right, penis) but he had been home 'alone' (wife was out somewhere when it happened) though he happened to be on viagra at the time. Coincidentally, his neighbour (who is about the same age), was also home alone...

Exam stress!

Just a quick note to say that I am really starting to feel the stress of exams now. Just a bit less than one week to go then I am expected to be at intern level in my psych formulation/diagnosis and management...no pressure!!

Clinical rotations are coming to a close tomorrow and I am partially scared, but also very glad. I feel that I have seen quite a variety of patients and as much as I hate to say it, I just need to polish up my book knowledge, seeing more of the same patients won't help me much.

I am Looking forward to the GP rotation coming up soon!
