this week's highlights

i was really looking forward to post something at the end of the week but geez, im getting busier and more anxious every day. midterms is fast approaching and i still have a lot of readings to catch up. hay, the life of a med student... moreso, the life of a third year med student. hehe. here are the highlights of my week.



on this site will rise....


  • lobby entrance of the medical center

  • commercial arcade ( i hope they'll have starbucks at least. hehe)

  • 8 suites which are of two kinds, one has a kitchen of its own and the other, a receiving area. sorry, nawawala yung picture nito. i knew i had uploaded it somewhere....

tuesday

i had clinical ward. my patient this time suffers from drug induced gouty arthritis. he's very emaciated and in pain due to the lesions he's got in all his limbs.

the view ain't so good no? i just took a stolen photo of the guy. i dont have the guts to find a better view and mag- ala professional photographer pa dun. hehe.

thursday

i was able to watch a procedure in gastro. they inserted a PEG tube into the patient's upper gastroinestinal tract in case he's esophagus will undergo stricture due to his progressing laryngoesophageal cancer. so i advice you people, smoking is dangerous for your health and very dangerous for your appetite.

the finish product. the tube inserted in the epigastrium.
