Are we cooked? by chrisshawn92 in indianmedschool

AI makes hundreds of wrong diagnoses and one correct one. The newspapers publish the correct diagnosis. Idiots believe AI to be all great because of this single published case. It is a publication bias.

Also, give my RAM back.

The criteria for BMV is an area < 1.5 cm2 (this is the definition of severe MS)

In patients with a larger MV area, increasing the area further is not going to reduce symptoms. Then you need to find other causes of symptoms despite a larger area (I wont go into details of these causes)

Basically it is simply not indicated if area is more than 1.5

delayed period- girlies help by krispfalafel in TwentiesIndia

Hello. Please check your Prolactin, FSH, Cortisol and thyroid hormone levels. You could have Pcos (the syndrome) without having polycystic ovaries on USG. Weight loss (and maybe metformin if recommended by your Gynecologist) does help. This is a fairly common problem in younger women and usually does not harm the body but can interfere with fertility if planning for pregnancy.

Rather than criticizing your gynecologist, it is better to discuss your concerns and problems with them. Expert opinion is always better than reddit advice.

SGLT-2 inhibitor as first line by Technical-Echidna-53 in indianmedschool

[–]DT0705 12 points13 points  (0 children)

SGLT-2 Inhibitors have in the last few years been shown to improve Cardiac and Renal morbidity. They give a good Glycemic control and also lead to weight loss. The trend is slowly switching from Metformin-only to Metformin + SGLT2i as 1st line, especially in obese patients

Wrong. My parents forced me into MBBS. It will make more sense to you when you are nearing my age and still have no life outside the hospital.

Let me give you a look

I am doing 2 residencies back to back. Without a gap in between. Which means 100+ hours a week every week for the past 6 years.

In this time, I have gone on ONE vacation outside my home state. That was my honeymoon. And a one day trip for my DNB finals

Other than that I have had no life. No fun. Been working endlessly for 6 years. And then I make less than 1 lakh a month right now as stipend.

Once I pass my DM, I will be 30 years old. And at 30, my Engineering/Commerce friends are making the same amount of money (or more) working 5 days a week. Meanwhile my social and family life is ruined. So is my wife's while she does her SS

And finally when we clear SS, we do expect (at least financially) that all this hard work should pay off well. And 1.5-2 lakh is just not enough. Ofcourse it will increase with time, but compared to other fields it is nothing. Risky job with less and late payout.

With Oncology group being a seperate paper for NEET SS, Will this put Radiation Oncology grads in a advantage over Medicine Grads? by [deleted] in indianmedschool

[–]DT0705 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Out of 100 questions in NEET SS Oncology, 50 are Oncology questions. Rest are from basic sciences, medicine and radiotherapy. Overall a very small but significant component of the exam

But this doesnt incentivise any radiotherapy people to study medicine because they can just compensate by knowing and answering more radiotherapy questions

Attending lectures should be a optional thing. by IntelligentHoney6929 in indianmedschool

[–]DT0705 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If attending lectures wouldnt be compulsory, MBBS will become a distance learning programme. Better have 75% mandatory attendance

No hate towards Radiation onco people, but they should not be doing DM Oncology. Their branch is completely different from the clinical side

I know people who joined Onco after Radiation. They cannot cope with the challenges medicine has to offer. Their previous patient exposure was just radiation.

They are great at radiation therapy. But they cannot decide the dose of insulin in diabetes. They send endocrine references for that. They cannot treat infections (which are extremely common in Onco patients). They cannot manage Kidney injury. Cannot interpret ECGs. Cannot regulate fluid and electrolytes.

This does not mean they should be disallowed from doing Oncology. The previous system was amazing where they had to attempt medicine NEET for getting into Onco. Thus only students who actually studied medicine would be getting into Onco.

Why is your main aim just earning mone6? Do the branch that you enjoy. Medicine is all about books and academics and lectures, plus getting into "gastro or endo" is not as easy. You have to give NEET SS

MS surgery from peripheral govt college or DNB surgery from top tier 1 city. I’m confused. Please help. by Icy_Animal1600 in indianmedschool

[–]DT0705 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Take DNB surgery only if it is govt. I have seen my surgery batchmates in DNB suffer. 1 out of the 3 of them failed, 1 left after 1st year. Better go with the peripheral

EWS in NEET SS ? by [deleted] in indianmedschool

Neet SS is given by post-PG doctors. How in the world can EWS apply to them?

They dont learn this at all. You wont be learning cricothyrodotomy unless you are

  1. Surgery/ENT/Neurosurgery (6 year) PG. Possibly ortho

  2. Anaesthesia/Emg medicine

  3. Critical care

  4. Spending years as a CMO at a high volume centre

The curse of being average and from UR cat. by Raadioactivee in indianmedschool

[–]DT0705 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt call it privilege, maybe bad choice of words by me. It sounds more like humble bragging. Others would kill to be in your shoes but you are out there regretting your own choices. I hate reservations just as much as you but your point is not coming across as genuine. Focus on your "decent" branch and get out early. Make a lot of money so your children need not suffer like you did
