20th april

next month, would be the last forthnight of my medical posting (provided i dont do anything stupid to get extended)... and i'm gonna be take 7 days leave! though my dept only allows a max of 3 days at one go...:-) really looking forward to it, since the start of my medical posting i've gone to work the latest 6.50am for the past 3+ months, except for ONE miserable monday that i took off!

but the bf needs to ruin it. it isn't my fault that im only allowed a max of 3 days at one go. it isnt my fault that i don't get weekends off like HOs is taiping hospital. we're already in a LDR. that's something i don't believe in, yet i find myself in one...

today was really tiring... tilaga and i wanted a relaxed cubicle. i had just finished hectic g3 where i looked after 6-8 nephro patients and 9-10 dengue patients, clerk new dengue cases, do TDS reviews, run and set lines for other ppl's patients... then i came back to 7b only to take Acute cubicle... this time we took the first cubicle.. :-) but we had to retake a few patients' blood, then i get called to follow rounds in Acute cause the houseman in charge went missing... the specialist actually said 'thank you sarah' after that, so i felt extra gracious and took the ABG an bloods for one patient after getting an urgent USG doppler for that patient. my own cubicle's rounds ended at one... rushed to take bloods, fill in consent forms, OT lists, then rush for lunch (rather two rolls of mentos and a glass of iced tea!). only to get called by the ward, that a nephro MO wanted me to trace the results of a nephro patient who was admitted at 10am. thankfully i had already traced it. got consent for IJC insertion from her, before being called to the INR clinic, cause i've done it previously, i drag nora with me. and that finishes at 4. i had 4 discharges, and tila helped me settle their prescriptions but the summaries were still mine. i settled that, and then two news cases came in at around 5.20 and as everyone else disappeared or hid in the corner, doing discharges, i had to clerk them both! i left at 6.10. oh and i wanted a relaxing week...
