when there’s too much of it, one moans. ditto when there’s none about. when i was a clinician, we’d never utter the Q-word when we were on call, just in case a million admissions started to come in. with it being soon after x’mas and the new year, none of the surgeons did any major ops. which means all this week in the department, we’ll be bereft of specimens like oesophago-gastrectomies and the whipple’s, leaving us with measly gallbladders and appendices.
and it’s so bloomin’ quiet today, that the solitary appendix i reported this morning didn’t even wanna look like this.
oh well. i’m sure after all these complaining, a truckload of GP gastrointestinal biopsies will come trundling into the reporting room at about 15 minutes before going-home time!
woo. hoo.
Can’t please veryone, can we?
Ruptured appendix ke tu?
not yet.
i had appendicitis (betul ke eja ni) when i was in shah alam years ago. sent to klang hospital. after a few checks… the doctor sad that i need to go for an operation. i asked if it was indeed appendicitis, he said, ‘we’re not sure yet, we’ve to take a look’. haiya… beli medical degree from india kot.
it was a nightmare trying to locally ‘bius’ me. they tried 6, bl**dy SIX times but failed to get the liquid in. my back was lebam sakan. finally, gotta go for GA.
kudo
offtopic..
Yesssss…nasi lemak bus stop..Frequent customet..when available and and wanted some excellent nasi lemak.
It finished quite fast though. as you mentioned 7.25. i think by 8.30 it is usually finished!
Thanks 4 the pointer!:)
Could be a tsunami for all we know kudo.
AtoK : aiyo, appedisectomy pakai local anaesthetic is it? gila is it?
ya, i was just about to say. did you have a contraindication for GA?
naj: come to think of it, yes it does look like a tsunami!
next trick: atypical nuclei of a neoplastic lymphoid cell from a diffuse large B cell NHL which looks like peninsula malaysia. 😉
Ya la, that looks like a tsunami after a drop of LSD. Tarak kerja pun mau complain ka?
Nads: Ya lorr, kudo you no kerja you diam diam saja, later got kerja piling also you complain.
don’t knowlah apa yg appropriate, i’m not a doc. tapi, the GA… made me muntah kuning (air perut org kata) and a little bit sengsara afterthat, not much.
operation wise, i guess, quite seasoned. had 4 so far. 1 appedisectomy, 2 key-hole for my torn knee meniscus, 2 acl recosntruction on my right knee. apart from the first, all others were done here in the UK. well done NHS! :).
may be the next one will be for my trapped nerve…arghhhhh. done 2 MRI neck scans.
