Dr Lim was ward rounding early in the morning..
I kepo follow them..
Then he asked HO, MO what is the characteristic of nephrotic syndrome..
They said proteinuria..
Dr. Lim: “value?”
HO, MO started to teka..
Then fedup..
Dr Lim saw me..
“Medical student comes..”
Asked me same question..
I said proteinuria >3.5g/day..
Then he said gram??
I was like.. er.. if not mistaken la..
Then one HO answered..
I took out my iphone to check last year lecture..
Hmm.. I was right and wrong at the same time..
Right for the value but wrong as the value is for adult!!
Then he discharged the patient..
Pulled out the daily chart papers..
Saw my name n phone number pulak..
Read out loud loud..
Then looked at me n asked me “u’re wei juan a?”
Smiled and gave me back..
What a wonderful medical life huh?
Like to follow his ward round. So far the only Dr. makes me more motivated to study after ward round
hmm.. yeah, but have to depend on our luck.. sometimes his ward round quite late..
