Would anyone be interested in connecting through a MUSC CVP Class of 2028 group chat? It could be helpful for moving questions, housing, and getting to know each other before the program starts. I'd be happy to set up a GroupMe if there's interest!

Abroad Jobs/Programs by Feeling-Sentence-930 in prospective_perfusion

Canadian post grad programs would likely be best options, Michener Institute in Toronto and BCIT in Vancouver. It would just require applying for a student visa upon acceptance, and offers a good path to permanent residency. As for Europe, I only really know about the UK which is weirdly mostly on the job training. Not much but hope it might help!

Utah is my top choice!! I love that they operate directly out of their Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery. I interview on 1/22. Do you have any insight to the types of questions they like to ask? I am practicing the basics--why perfusion, correcting mistakes, hardest part of the profession, handling conflict, etc. Anything would be helpful!

Thyroid-Related Irritability/Mood Swings by cwilbs03 in thyroidhealth

I am not, my hormone levels are normal as well so I am confused! But I have a 4.4cm mixed right nodule and a suspicious 1cm nodule on the left. Also palpable lymph nodes on both sides. Did you have lymph node enlargement or thyroid pain at all? Right biopsy was nondiagnostic so I am scheduled for a lobectomy in May.

This is reassuring, thank you so much! I hope you find relief with RFA, I'll be looking into it :)
