So clinical started like two weeks ago. And at week two I’m still quite blur. I go to wards every single day, my legs are kinda wobbly from standing too long during ward rounds, like jelly hehehhh.

That one I can tahan la, but my antibody getting lousy everyday I’m prone to infections of late. Patients cough, I cough back. Kinda embarrassing to be clerking and barking at the same time. Had my first presentation in front of my clinician two days ago and I was very… everywhere! How to say ah, I barely passed. Like cukup cukup makan. Flushing red during physical examination and I was sweating like nobody’s business. Need to learn how to hide the panic.

Got CNS case la, otak jam kejap.

But so relieved after that lah! Hope I’ll be more systematic after this. Paediatrics is tough, I gotta admit. One of the busiest departments I swear! It takes a lot of patience… Dah la tak pandai melayan budak budak haha. Physical examination is opportunistic- which means you gotta examine when they’re not fretful. But every posting comes with different challenges kan, gotta live with that ;)

So here’s my schedule everyday: 8-5pm wards. 5-7: dinner. 8-10pm: wards. Social life= nil. Now curi curi time to blog, dah complete case summary finally!

Sigh, I should probably study some dysmorphic features now..
