bear with me
as this old lady will start her story on her posting ha ha :P
psychiatry:
it's good, enjoy that experience, but not so into it, i thk i wil turn pyscho if talk to depressed and schizo patient most of the time, taking history is a pain but understand their background and stories make it interesting, we have met a couple of special cases, some with love delusion, some with bipolar and some with severe depression who doesnt even bother to look at your face, but overall, its nice to know something about psychiatry and psychology, at least now there wont be anymore of fear-ness but more of empathy towards them. most of it, is incurable. :( especially when u feel dat its the mind who is deceiving and controlling the patient but not that they have the power to stop the mental illness, it is really sad.
community medicine:
known to be deals with evything in medical field but in the end, i thk i learn only how to start a research paper only, which is tiring, gruesome and tedious. i cant imagine myself involve in research field, if at all i m, i thk my mind is unsound :P.. but i miss the visits and bus ride to Manasa school of mentally challenged, we were there to take the general examination and hygiene status of them for our research so we have some time to interact and play with those kids and it'
s also the time when you will have some self awareness that you are actually blessed and lucky to be a normal person, if you are normal, why worry then? god have not given u a sounded mind to worry.. for people of differently abled, they stil give a perfect smile whenever they see you :D
paediatrics:
my fav postings of the first 3 posting! i like kids, but i never thought i'd wanna be in paeds, to see them suffer and in pain. but stil, when i saw their face, from neonates to school going children, some kind of bonding and attachment wud established aft talking or playing with them, this is the best part i thk. most of the gp mates are still missing paeds and reluctant to leave paeds in karkala. we do learn alot from the lecturer in paeds, they are dedicated and devoted to their works, there is this one lecturer, he is such a natural in handling the kids, all the talent he got, the charisma of doctor, he perform all of this like an art, which is something that i thk all of us have to learn and work that out, we have to be equipped with knowledge in the 1st place, to give the patient confident and consolation :)
when in postnatal ward, I REALLY LIKE IT when a new born grasp my finger! its actually a reflex which is going to persist up to 6 months, but i always like to do it on evy baby i encounter with :P
now i m in o&g(obstetric and gynaecology), the posting that deals evything about woman.
i rmb once the HOD said: this is the only medical field that deals only with lower 10cm of a woman ( from pubic symphysis upwards ;P)and that's it, nothing more, but that 10cm is crucial in making the world a different place, determine the population and ensure the continuity of human( the last part is frm me :P)
OPD(out patient department) is good,with some real cool doctor, pretty much enjoys OT(operation theatre) and best of all is the short classes!
because the o&g doctors are too busy, they dun have time to lecture us, which means the chances of getting screwed is less! hehe :P
seen a few surgeries and got the chance to see a caesarian section and handling of a newborn, suction of hydatidiform mole and a transabdominal hysterectomy, sounds complicated huh? laymen term would be: suction of abnormal pregnancy outcome and removal of a enlarged uterus.
as for the c-section, the incision is make at the bikini line and it is around 15-20cm long, long enough for the baby head to come out from the womb, the knife passes multiple layer of abdomen and reaches the womb and then the doctor will reach out for the head of the baby and pushing the mother's belly to push out the baby from the incision made jz nw, once he is out, the loud crying of the baby signify the life of the new born, i watched the whole procedure with a itchy stomach and touched heart, touched by the born of a new life, and evything is going well for the operation, eerie kind of feelings that I would never imagine myself lying on the operation stage having this procedure done on myself, though the mother is being aesthetic already, she will nt feel any pain but the view from the observer is still a lil tad bit gross..
now, i really hope that i can see a delivery per vagina, we always missed it! because the mother always get the pain at night :O
i wanna see it because i m a vaginal delivery baby!
thank you mom, i love you
wad an odd ending, but haha, bye bye! :D
