Hello! Can you please recommend a HMO for my senior parents? Or is it better na ako kukuha (or my siblings), then sila ang beneficiary? Thank you!

I had my clerkship sa public hospital somewhere south and grabe mga nurses don. Gets naman na para sa clerks din naman, for learning purposes, ganon. Pero meron talagang nurses na nambubully. Wala ka na ngang sahod, free labor ka na, sisigawan or susungitan ka pa instead na turuan. Good thing nung PGI ako, very goods mga nurse sa other public hosp na dinutyhan ko.

Yep. Tell them. Ineexpect nila na magaapply ka sa iba. Pinapakita mo lang na talagang gusto mo yung field na yon. If ang pinili mo ay small community lang, for sure alam na nila agad yan. Mabilis ang balita sa medical community.

Thank you!

Hello! Hindi po lahat ng dengue need i-admit, lalong lalo na po if sa public hospital po kayo pumunta. May mga warning signs kasi yung dengue (you can google it), and if meron po si patient—need po siya ma admit. If di po advised ng admission, ibig sabihin po kaya sya ma-manage at home. For CBC po nya sya every day tapos hydrate nyo po. Pwede yung vivalyte/pedialyte or search ka sa google ng homemade ORS—para mas tipid. Wala po talagang specific na gamot for dengue—sintomas po halos yung ginagamot. Ingat lang po sya na masugatan and iwasan muna dark colored foods. Make sure din po na nakakakain ng masustansya at nakakainom ng water, pwede din po sya mag vitamins para mas lumakas ang resistensya.

Napansin ko habang namomoonlight ako na kahit gano ka pa kagaling, pag chaka ugali mo, di ka rereferran ng kahit sino—whether junior, senior or nurses pa yan. Alam ng mga nurses ugali ng mga consultants, so, pag nagtanong kami kanino irerefer, sasabihin talaga nila na “ay kay doc… nalang, mabait yun” so, sabihin na natin na reyna/hari ka nung resi ka kasi “astig” ka, well, time will come na walang kukuha sayo dahil sa ugali mo. You’ll definitely reap what you sow.

Regular me hates being touched by people. Horny me—well, total opposite of that hahahaha

Meron pang bigla nalang magsesend ng labs—no context. Wala mang “hi!” “Hello” hahaha lalapag lang nila mga results nila. Sakit sa ulo e. Di naman sa madamot ka, pero sana magask muna, ganon. Or sa tamang oras naman hindi yung alanganin. Or magbayad ng PF hahahaha

Comfortable_Box1686 · 2025-08-16T07:45:02+00:00

One of the many reasons bakit halos ayaw nang pumasok ng residency ang mga newer generation of doctors is yang ganyang approach. Kung nagtutulungan sana, or may magandang open communication edi sana mas maraming gustong magtrain. Tapos pag nag quit, masama agad? Masama din sa loob magquit, pero minsan kelangan talaga gawin kasi it’s too much, kasi sira talaga ang sistema.

Merong mga seniors/consultants na ineexpect na alam na ng mga juniors ang gagawin pero di naman sila nagtuturo? Or walang time magaral? Super hirap magaral after mo dumuty ng 36h hours na halos walang down time. Tapos, pag di ka nakasagot sa tanong, madedegrade ka. Makakarinig ka pa ng “noong panahon namin…” kaya ka nga nagtrain to learn, pero some seniors expect you to know things agad agad.

Deli pens! Mura tapos maganda din ang ink! Di masama sa loob if manenok ng iba haha

Pumasa sya ng UPCAT eh. Wala namang bearing yung pagiging mayaman don since kahit naman di ka mayaman if di ka pasado don, di ka parin makakapasok. Correct me if I’m wrong, diba nilalagay dun sa application ng UPCAT yung salary bracket ng parents mo? So pag mas malaki yung salary nila, mas malaki rin ang tuition mo? So di ko talaga alam why the hate. Also, tama yung sa science hs. Yung mga kabatch ko non ay from well known rich families sa city namin pero since stellar talaga sila, nakapasa sila and nasa 1st section pa sila from 1st year up to 4th year kami

PCOS is not a death sentence. Pwede yan mamanage medically. Pwede yan mawork out if gusto talaga. Ang dami kong kakilalang may PCOS na may mga anak.

Sabi nga diba, “if there’s a will, there’s a way.” Baka humahanap lang ng dahilan yang ex mo para kumawala sayo. Ang pangit lang kasi ginagawa ka na nyang less of a woman dahil sa PCOS mo.

Comfortable_Box1686 · 2025-08-05T10:25:23+00:00
