DR. WAJEEHA ISSUES

To help you identify this rare breed -- in yourself, as well -- this is how genuine people behave.  Here is an article from the fortune magazine! They don’t seek attention.  They don’t need constant reinforcement of their own ego. Where attention seekers have a hole that constantly needs to be filled, genuine people are already filled with self-confidence and self-awareness. They’re not concerned with being liked.  The need to be liked is born of insecurity and narcissism. It creates a need to manipulate your own and other’s emotions. Confident and authentic people are simply themselves. If you like them, fine. If not, that’s fine, too. They can tell when others are full of it.  Perhaps naïve folks can be easily fooled, but genuine people are not naïve. They’re grounded in reality and that gives them a baseline from which they can tell when things don’t add up. There’s a big difference.  They are comfortable in their own skin.   Most of us struggle with tha...

Heyyyy! Our Pediatrics outpatient department has been flooded with cases everyday . Special cases . Why special? Because we (medicos) get to learn from them . Not just the medication .  We talk to them . Take a detailed history . Touch the infants . Feel their respiration . Their skull. Look for unfused bones . All this is an endearing phenomena . The attachment you develop with the baby minutes after you auscultation the heart rate and observe the heart beat is enormous.  I also love the order in which we are posted in the respective departments . Gynecology , obstetrics , Pediatrics , Surgery and Medicine. It's like looking at the human grow step by step.  The OPD had a handful of cases of rickets other than the regular diarrhoea and fever . So , I thought to give it a read from my textbook of Pediatrics.  While I was reading the various types of rockets I stumbled upon trousseau and Chvostek sign. Ok BuhBye!

Hello people I am back again . Blame it on the vacation guys! Insomnia got me here today. Today , I am rather euphoric but would like to bring out the health damages , that I had observed in fellow medical students. 1. Cuts To start on a lighter note since the anatomy dissection hall , haematology blood prick stunts in both physiology and  pathology. The one below is the cut, I succumbed to while trying to turn my Davidson. Little though , it hurts . Which faculty , except the defence services lends their DNA just for the sake of some count. 2. Dark circles  No , the 20 something girls don't have inch deep and wide dark circles . Not throughout the year, atleast . Unless they have a baby to look after or a 11-7am job , young ladies have bright eyes and complexion. The irregular cycles of sleep , either due to the exams or due to the exams again! Now that it's a routine , we never mind watching a movie or two during that time . 3. Acne The constant stress leads to dehydration o...

Hey In medicine , you grow everyday because you Learn a new thing everyday. The peculiar thing I stumbled on while beginning to start central nervous system is : What is it ? Watch this video ... From the link below to know more ! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3Ebk5Yv1Ns The palmomental reflex, an involuntary contraction of the mentalis muscle of the chin caused by stimulation of the thenar eminence, can be tested easily and rapidly. Its presence may alert the clinician to the possibility of cerebral pathology. However, the reflex is often present in normal people and may be absent in disease states. Testing merely for the presence or absence of the reflex therefore lacks both specificity and sensitivity. A strong, sustained, and easily repeatable contraction of the mentalis muscle, which can be elicited by stimulation of areas other than the palm, is more likely to indicate cerebral damage. Bye !

Hola!  Being posted in Pediatrics I have some slides that should probably help you ... The toughest thing in Pediatrics is the immunisation schedule and the developmental milestone ... Once you are done with it ... That is it! I googled out some interesting charts , that may help ! Ok bye ! So far so much!

Hello fellas ! Today started with a strong determination to just turn 1300 odd pages of Davidson ... I could turn just  500 out of the whole lot . Turning pages also can be very exhausting especially when they have tiny texts written on them .  The evening was all about moving out from the mental stress of learning and retaining millions of words from the heavy paper collage .  Tonight , I decided to kill the subject of surgery . I started with hemorrhoids . But then you happen to read EWW stuff that you shut the book immediately . The thoughts of it keep loitering in your head but you just want to flush them out. I read this (see picture) Sensitive readers better stay out from this post. I am nauseating already. This blog was meant to divert my attention.  Goodnight . Sleep tight !

Hello people I needed this the most ... Thought of sharing these with you guys too !  Copy paste once again! Anxiety Reduction Strategies Take a slow breath. Continue slow breathing for 3 minutes.   Drop your shoulders and do a gentle neck roll. State the emotions you’re feeling as words, e.g., “I feel angry and worried right now.” (Aloud but too yourself.) Massage your hand, which will activate  oxytocin . Put something that’s out of place in its place. (Physical order often helps us feel a sense of mental order.) Take a day trip somewhere with natural  beauty . Ask yourself, “What’s the worst that could happen?” Then, ask yourself, “How would I cope if that happened?” Now answer those questions. Take a break from actively working on solving a problem and allow your mind to keep processing the problem in the background. Take a bath. Forgive  yourself for not foreseeing a problem that occurred. Throw out something from your bathroom. (The order principle again.)...

Hella! This is my transformation week I'd say. My outlook towards life , studies and friendship has gone imaginable yet drastic transformation . From a clueless writer to a *I must know this * kind of a detective . So , in this blog I am going to transmit my love for medicine to my readers. Who I know already love the subject extensively.  The human body is frustratingly ( yet beautifully ) complex and I get to spend my  life learning about it. Lucky lass that I have been by the grace of almighty so far . While the amount that I am expected to know about it can be overwhelming at times (and by times I mean always), I am incredibly fortunate to be living in a time when we know as much as we do. Can you believe that there was a time that we didn’t know how the heart, lungs, or kidneys worked? When a teenager vomiting was a taboo because people thought she was pregnant? A time when we didn’t realize that something as simple as washing hands would decrease spread of infectious dis...
