I want! I WANT!!
YEAH! I want MFM. Been on my mind for quite some time now. Since my post-exams period till now I can't help it but to think. Arghhh.. i just can't get you out of my head(to the tunes of kylie minogue's). I dont care, I dont care whatever people want to tell me, what my friends say about her. Must... go... visit... her... tomorrow!
Yup that's what i'll do alright. Visit her, and satisfy my needs, my cravings of her. I might sound a little bit pervy but i dont care. Say what you all want. I'll just proceed with my plans.
I couldn't take it anymore, the photos I saw online, the smell that lingers in my head. It seems that everything is pointing towards her. Pointing towards..
Fine. I've decided to see her tomorrow. Wish me luck!
I'll finally be able to see my Manhattan Fish Market after years. Missed MFM badly =( hahahahha...... =p

Still painful?
Dr: Do you still fell pain ma'am? Is this area numb? (while pressing on her arm)
Pt: I can't feel my hand doctor. I'm afraid. (shivering badly)
Dr: Can u feel anything ma'am? Is it pain if I press here?
Well, pain relieve. Thats what everyone thought anaesthesiology is all about. Hands up if u're one of them. Dont worry, I'm one of them too =p . Hm, or shall i say, WAS one of them?
Pain is something disturbing. Something annoying. Something uneasy. Something destructive?
Well, it can be any of those. In fact hospitals in a few countries have also adopted the concept of pain as the 5th vital sign beginning with the US. It's as if it is as important, as valuable as the other 4 vital signs which are temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure.
Perhaps, pain, unlike the other vitals wouldn't cause death if there's abnormality with them. Direct death not. Indirect maybe. But pain is what every living beings wouldn't want to experience, to put it properly, would like to experience it less. Prolonged or very bad pain would really affect a person's life. From daily activities to their psychological state of the mind. Pain would really scar them... for life if it's severe enough. Like what my cousin experienced during his childhood days, which he claimed that he wasnt given any analgesia before the procedure to remove an abscess from his gluteus region. It was pain alright, he said he could recall exactly how it felt like, even to the extent of feeling the pain when he recalled the incident.
Aside from pain, anaesthesiologist also deal with patients in the intensive care unit. They try their best to keep the patient's 4 vital signs within the normal range for one to be able to live. I guess thats the signs which indicate u're dead or alive.
They also play a part in calming down the patients, putting off their anxieties. And assist them by general anaesthesia if the patient fails to calm down. It all comes to aiding n relieving both patients and the surgeon. I guess the job must be a little boring? I'm not sure. I could only see them monitoring the patient over the procedures. Most of the patients are already screened properly before being allowed to do surgery. Therefore, there's nothing much for an anaesthethist unless the patient unexpectedly have some sort of complications.
Well, for the madam mentioned above, she came in for an operation to repair her broken humerus. She's a 70-odd year old lady. Even before the surgery, in the waiting room, she already voiced out her concerns to us. Although tried to calm her down, she remains anxious. She was due to be operated on using only a brachial plexus regional block. However, she still remained anxious and worried. Which prompted the usage of general anaesthesia, which was her own suggestion anyways. Good thing she's fit enough for it. General anaesthesia can kill, just like how i killed my simulated patient post-operation. LOL
I would still say ophthalmo sounds more fun =p

2 Weeks Ended
2 weeks of ophthalmology.
possibly a little too short for us to really have master the posting.
what a waste, really enjoyed the posting. till the very last drop.
good academicians, doctors showing good examples, every question being answered appropriately.
kinda reluctant to leave that posting =p
the end of posting questions were pretty straightforward too.
we all say that the heart and the brain, are the 2 most important organs in the body.
some argued hearts' the most important, some opted for brain.
however, eyesight is what a human treasured most.
that's what i could learn from patients i talk to.
most with an eye condition which is not fully curable or have a lower chance of recovery,
worry over all their activities, their hobbies, their jobs.
some went into depression.
and it's particularly sad, if someone with a curable poor vision, goes for a surgery, ended up worse.
it's depressing.
i could only offer to listen, thats what i could do for now, as a student.
