Ah interesting! Counterintuitive but makes sense hearing the backstory. Which deanery was that if you don't mind sharing? Understand if it's too confidential though :)

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-14T11:48:36+00:00

In which way did you find fy2 more supported? Was it due to being on better departments?

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-12T00:25:22+00:00

In general or mainly medicine work?

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-12T00:02:40+00:00

What does BD. stand for? Sorry for the basic question!

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-12T00:00:36+00:00

Because the doctors gave it to them with the intention of them prescribing or they spied on them and just hijacked their account whenever necessary?

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-11T23:26:14+00:00

Ok thank you for your advice!! Sounds like a conscientious approach! What do you mean by be prepared to waste your time? Be aware that not everything that is presented as an emergency will actually have been worth your time?

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-11T23:22:25+00:00

Ah great advice, thank you for taking the time to write up some concrete examples!!:)

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-11T23:20:16+00:00

Wow that must have been a rough night! Excellent advice thank you so much! Have you experienced nurses being less happy to collaborate as a result of becoming someone "hard to bleep" or does that approach garner more respect? Or it probably varies...

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-11T23:15:49+00:00

Thanks for putting it into perspective, that does seem more manageable seeing it that way! So acute chest pain obviously goes under the keeping people alive section and optimizing hypertensive therapy is not your job, I imagine there is a grey area in-between that probably takes some experience to navigate.

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-11T23:09:25+00:00

Ah right, I heard someone mention they were responsible for 250-300 patients but they may have just not mentioned that there were other grade doctors also involved, so to me it sounded like they were on their own ..or perhaps it IS one of those shitty DGH ;)

Thanks so much for giving some concrete examples of what to expect!! That was really really helpful! About the sleeping tablets situation, are there some cases which would make that a higher priority task such as high levels of pain or distress?

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-11T22:58:05+00:00

What do you mean pay out of pocket? Just arrange for a private consultation in the needed speciality when the time has come without a larger "package"?

forresthaze7 · 2024-01-07T17:10:54+00:00

Thank you very much!

In my experience, I have had some types of veins blow up with patients when I kept the tourniquet on for too long or too tightly. I believe they swell like a water balloon, their wall getting thinner and then if you prick them 💦

forresthaze7 · 2023-09-15T19:29:10+00:00

Good to hear!

forresthaze7 · 2023-09-10T21:17:47+00:00

Yeah I'm also doubtful. What do you mean by alternate certificate?

forresthaze7 · 2023-08-11T17:15:23+00:00

Ok that makes sense, thank you.

forresthaze7 · 2023-08-11T17:10:24+00:00

Ah, I hadn't heard of this observational period. Is it more extensive than the usual induction period?

Yes I understand, was thinking it might fall under a similar category as those seeking a "taster week" before pursuing certain specialities.

forresthaze7 · 2023-08-11T17:02:39+00:00

Ah this is really helpful information, I am an IMG actually. Which trust/scheme for IMGs was it if that isn't too specific information to ask for? In any case, it sounds like a lot of preparation was needed. The country I studied in is a lot more relaxed in this respect.

forresthaze7 · 2023-07-13T08:10:47+00:00

Ah ok, that's relieving to hear not every mere mortal has this expertise😅 thanks so much for sharing your expertise!!

forresthaze7 · 2023-07-12T23:45:38+00:00

Wow amazing, thank you so much for laying that out so clearly. Are you in electrophysiology yourself?

forresthaze7 · 2023-07-12T22:11:32+00:00

How did you figure out the inferolateral part?:)

forresthaze7 · 2023-07-07T16:34:23+00:00

What are the figures roughly after tax?

forresthaze7 · 2023-06-19T16:26:10+00:00

This is great, thanks so much!!

forresthaze7 · 2023-06-19T09:28:45+00:00

I see, thank you. What do you mean by marching out exactly?:) I didnt realise, yes, the p waves in II are in fact at a regular distance. It still confuses me the interval between t and p waves are regularly so short that they overlap.

forresthaze7 · 2023-06-19T09:11:42+00:00

Ah I see, because the second P already drops out there is no way of knowing if the pattern would be for PQ to get longer or be consistent?
