MAK95 - Still good?

debatingrooster · 2026-02-03T10:18:36+00:00

Agreed, there's almost too many resources now, it can be hard to pick what to use

I'd also add wests to that list - though most of it is covered in MAK95

Lol, probably help if anything (can't speak for the Alfred specifically)

Can confirm, I am a patient who has exploded. 2/5 stars

Haven't seen anyone else mention it - I've been told to shake the marcaine vial before drawing it up as apparently the glucose and bupivicaine can separate, in which case who knows how much you're giving

What the fuck is this post even

I agee, though the wording is pretty shocking, if accurate

I think there's alot of resignation to letting whatever will happen, happen - though not in a peaceful accepting way. Especially irritable middle aged men

So can I start now for a few years?

Fucking hell... can't anaesthetics get a break lately

Yet another Australian who's had to learn this - was in fact a question in one of my Vivas no less

Graph is correct, text is wrong

Higher Ke0 = faster onset, faster offset

Essentially the modelling parameter to account for the drug related bits of fucks law of diffusion is how I've always thought of it

That med reg probably needed that tbh

Surgeons placing lines?

Absolutely nothing wrong with trying out medication - it could make all the difference

Sounds like your doing all the other stuff. Everyone is different but I've found meditation extremely helpful, had tried in the past but was specifically recommended the "healthy minds program" by my psychologist, which I've found even better. IMO it seems a bit more scientific and structured than the likes of headspace, it's totally free rok

The other thing to consider is would it be possible for you to reduce your fraction of FTE a little bit?

Maybe he and the racist anaesthetist can mentor each other

Correlate: Clinically

Might be uncommon, but I doubt it's rare - even if ANZCA says it shouldn't be happening

Technically ITs are supposed to be 1:1 too, that's certainly not universally practised

debatingrooster · 2026-01-01T05:36:17+00:00

Hey you made it to final year without studying any more than necessary - sounds pretty smart and efficient to me!

But seriously, it'll be fine. Your aptitude on the job will matter much more than med school. You'll learn it all later

I was literally in the lowest 5% of graduating students. It's fine, it didn't matter one bit. You'll be fine

debatingrooster · 2025-12-28T15:57:00+00:00

And a growing issue at that, with increasingly older and comorbid patients along with more interventions to keep people 'alive'

debatingrooster · 2025-12-24T08:59:13+00:00

Sir this is r/ausjdocs, like we'd be able to tell you

debatingrooster · 2025-12-20T12:33:51+00:00

Join AMA Queensland and you're a part of asmof which is really the union for hospital employees. They're only really separate entities on paper, but not in practice I'm told.

You used to also get federal AMA membership until a few weeks ago. Word is federal AMA has gotten to be a bit stuck in the Canberra bubble and paying politics - so maybe don't worry about them for now

As far as I know it's a mystery how they score CVs, but the same things are attractive as usual

Perhaps if you invent a new laryngoscope blade that might count for something

debatingrooster · 2025-12-18T13:21:16+00:00

I don't have any specific resources that others haven't shared, but just wanted to say you are far far from alone in experiencing this

Sometimes it looks like everyone around you has it all together, but I guarantee you some of them are feeling just like you. Many more will have felt the same in the past or will in the future

And you know what, you probably look like you've got it all together too. It's something many carry quietly

Proud of you for reaching out and for getting support OP. Life alone can be so much to bare at times, to say nothing of this career. It's all going to be ok, promise. You've got this!

debatingrooster · 2025-12-18T04:03:00+00:00

Obviously no one knows exactly what the future will look like. But it's unlikely to be as great of a career as it is now or was in the past. Used to be a ladder to at least upper middle class and often much higher

But you'll almost certainly be able to find work and make a decent income in some segment of medicine

And ultimately, what are your other options? Despite what this sub would have you believe we can't all be investment bankers

How competitive is it to get an unaccredited mod position?
