been a long time!
ya i know its been a long time since i posted,been a bit busy and feeling really lazy! i was busy when i was posted in isolation hospital-what with 18 hours continuous duty when i had night duties.....but it was a very informative experience. never in my life had i seen a rabies patient,managed to see one here,poor people they are,nothing much can be done to save them! also,3 tetanus cases were there in the wards when was finishing my posting there,1 patient had expired just the previous day....had never seen these patients too. so people reading this post,be warned-prevention is better than cure. get anti rabies vaccination when bitten by a dog and tetanus toxoid injection when you have a penetrating wound. also wash the sites with liberal amounts of soap and water. right now,i have been posted in siddiah road referral hospital-urban and family welfare centre. not much work here actually, its only on mondays and fridays-when there is ante-natal care clinic that we will be really busy.
