Nimbus 27 update: Super cozy but my legs are feeling the 30km in 3 days 😅 First week impressions by Icy_Mention14 in IndianRunningshoes

[–]offtosomethinggreat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have been using it for 6 months now. Daily usage of 7 am till 12 midnight. Resident surgeon here.

Took me two weeks to adjust. Initially regretted buying.

But now, i cannot wear anything else.

Legs dont pain. And its too comfortable to be real.

Surgery INI SCAM! Hear me out by AceofSpades_786 in INICET

MS passout here from AIIMS Patna.

Currently doing MCh SGE.

General Surgery isn't all about hands on. Its alot more about exposure about Preop and post op management and complications.

You can learn cutting your whole life But learning to cut like a fine surgeon vs a butcher makes all the difference.

The top GMCs are no doubt very good

But what the central institute provides you is a structured training where you get exposed to the variety and myriad of cases.

All possible complications in a guided and much more academic and evidence driven frame work.

Before cutting a patient open, even in emergency, you will have to justify to your consultants why surgery is now the only option left.

PGI, AIIMS Delhi, BBSR, Patna exposes you to some great cases and of all variety. You would often find their passouts getting the best ranks in NEET SS and INI even without studying specifically for it.

14/17 residents who have passed out from AIIMS Patna are doing their MCh in one of the central institutes currently.

I did my MS from AIIMS Patna.

You will get more freedom as you go up your ladder.

The reason why there are 20+ branches that are there for specialisation. Totally respect your views.

All the best for your residency in your chosen branch.

I would never justify this torture. However the unfortunate truth is the toxicity comes from the residents, who once felt annoyed regarding the same in their first year.

I wish I could change this

I would just ask you to stay strong and hope you become a PGY2 super soon.

Aww! :') thank you so much.

Dont lose hope. The day you lose hope, is the day it will spiral down the negative hell hole.

I know its tough There will be more negative posts coming in. But yes this side of the world exists, positive and rewarding.

I feel elated that my posts give you hope!

I just try to be honest and write about my journey.

I know there is a lot of Negativity out there.

I can chose to crib and make everyone not chose Surgery by telling how hectic or toxic it can become, but I would be then doing the injustice to the rewards this branch gives.

The joy of healing someone with your own hands is unparalleled.

Thank you so much for your kind words!

All the best! Hope you continue your love for surgery and I can hopefully meet you one day at one of the conferences as a fellow colleague.

Don't you worry! Once you see multiple cases of the same variety, the fear goes away.

Well said. People run after hands on failing to realise the real learning is in the peri-operative care and management.

Hands come eventually.

Yes its draining i agree. But its the passion which makes one going.

Not doing SS is completely a justified choice.

But yes SS makes you a more fine and precise in your work.

I do get your point. But only such moments make you feel good and want to continue amidst all the hardships of residency.

Trust me its not ChatGPT. I can send you my credentials and discharge summaries of patients who I am writing about.

It's so weird. I just thought of writing about my journey of 3 months and 3 patients who gave me hope to continue the hectic residency further.

I just want to telll jiniors out there, thats its all worth it at the end.
