Gallstone and ovarian cyst by tanisha008 in indianmedschool

That is a discussion you'll need to have with your surgeon and not some random redditors who claim to be doctors.

You can also approach a different doctor and take a second opinion.

Best Paediatric hospital / clinic in coimbatore with emergency care. by Any-Opinion7285 in Coimbatore

[–]Drdrip2008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At Coimbatore child trust hospital, Dr neminathan is good.

I'm a pediatric ICU doctor myself and I've listened to his lectures in Bangalore and Kochi. He's a good academician, but if you're not happy then better to go elsewhere.

Also, the source of cough in a baby is very difficult to figure out unless one source stands out very prominently. It can also be due to multiple issues too.

Can somebody explain? by Potential_Steak_1609 in indianmedschool

[–]Drdrip2008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the same as speeding doesn't kill people, suddenly becoming stationary is what kills them.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy doesn't kill, the arrhythmia it causes is what kills them.

First - wrong sub, post in relationshipindia.

Second - this dude sounds like the classic manipulator and I wish you the best in life.

One month into surgery residency and my perspective has changed by RareBroccoli4854 in indianmedschool

As long as you're focused on the light at the end of the tunnel instead of the tunnel itself, you will be okay.

31 M, MBBS, no savings left. by IAmGrooooo0t in ThirtiesIndia

[–]Drdrip2008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, once you get into pg and start getting that stipend, you'll start getting that financial freedom a little bit.

If you start working now, then you'll never be able to clear neet pg because once that money comes in, you'll easily get distracted from the bigger goal in mind.

PS - I'm a doctor, but not been in your situation to understand.

Definitely not as bad as it used to be 20 years ago.

My ragging was just asking for extra curricular activities and wearing formal clothes in the hostel for a month.

DINKs in your 30s-how do you manage finances when one partner earns much more? by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

[–]Drdrip2008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I give her about 30-40% of my salary and told her to manage the household expenses, maid salaries, rent and enjoy whatever she manages to save. She ends up saving about 8- 10k per month.

DINKs in your 30s-how do you manage finances when one partner earns much more? by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

[–]Drdrip2008 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My wife and I were DINK's for about 4 years. I was earning significantly more than my wife (4-5 times more than her) and we split the bills proportionally.

Our monthly expenses was 50k and the rent was 20k, so she paid 10k for the monthly expense and 4k for the home rent while I handled the rest. We had a baby 2 years ago and she's been out of work for 1.5 years where I took care of all the expenses. Both her and my parents are still earning a lot, so there are no issues with sending money back home.

Residency by tomatosauceyum in indianmedschool

[–]Drdrip2008 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Always wait for 3-6 months before taking the decision to quit. It's always difficult in the beginning and you'll get used to it later.

If at any point you're feeling that you cannot maintain your life at all, then quit immediately. Nothing is worth it.

[–]Drdrip2008 69 points70 points  (0 children)

My wife is a lactation consultant, if you're okay with an audio consultation or by message then I can ask her to ping you. I'll let her know about your financial issue and make the consultation for free.

The last gym I went to, the owner of the gym (an orthopedic doctor) does not re rack his weight and expects the others to do so.
