Happy CNY Everyone!

Sorry Lai... i think i was too blunt and tactless. It was a hot, tiring and busy day.

So far things that have happened include...

4 incidents of low BP... one of them below 70 systolic...

1 incident of high BP... above 200

3 blood transfusions

2 insertions of urinary catheters... one of them for acute urinary retention...

1 code blue

1 continuously seeping wound which ended up requiring re-operation

1 billion phone calls including getting yelled at by an unreasonable parent, talking to a stupid GP who was refusing care of a VRE positive patient.

working unpaid overtime...

buying the nurses chocolate in appreciation of their effort and making them my allies...

being thanked by many patients as they are leaving...

getting the title of "favourite doctor" from a patient...

getting praise from my registrars for doing a good job...

getting my first substantial paycheck... and spending money on new comfy shoes and cheap levi's jeans...

spending the long weekend with MOAO...

bliss...
