Internal Medicine

The reason why I haven't been blogging for the past few weeks is this..
 Internal Medicine posting
I hatechuuuuuu! Okay, dah tak boleh besar lagi ke font ni? Haha.. Seriously, separuh mati rasanya mengharungi posting ni. We basically learn everything yang ada dalam tubuh kita, the internal organs. Tau tak berapa banyak organ ada haaaa? T___T *cries*

Seriously depressed. Having to write 3 portfolio papers in a week is torturing. Mind you, it's not the normal portfolio okay. Imagine if the patient has 13 problems, I have to discuss all 13 problems one by one, how I establish the diagnosis, my diagnostic plan, treatment plan yadda yadda. As for the follow ups, one problem should include all the explicit details on SOAP
S: subjective (patient's complaints)
O: objective (physical exams, lab exams, supporting exams)
A: assessment
P: plan (diagnostic, treatment, education)
If you have 13 problems, you're gonna have 13 SOAPs in a day. Since I have to follow up the patients for a week, I'm gonna have 4 days of follow up. To make it worse, multiply that by 3 since I have 3 patients.

THIS IS MADNESS.

Ps. We can't complain since the Internal Medicine residents are doing the same thing too. No wonder the medical records are so freaking thick!
Pps. Tell me why do I wanna become a doctor again?
