~ Down with flu.... ~
8:47:00 pm
Down with flu today... It's such a drag...
Anyway, today is my DO... Purposely kept my handphone on silent mode... Had that gut instinct that my ward would call me up to return to work... Since the MC rate in my ward is horribly atrocious... And true enough, I got called back... Didn't pick up my handphone and they ended up calling my home phone... *Oh NO!*... But thankfully, my mum told them that I had something on with my family... *Phew!*... But who knows, I will get called up again tomorrow since I'm covering my PH?
And oh... I got 'scolded' by the stupid doctor yesterday... Apparently, this doctor wanted to do a chest tube insertion for a particular patient... Took me awhile to prepare the stuffs since it was my first time assisting in chest tube insertion... This particular doctor wanted this pneumothorax set, which my ward didn't have... Went to call up the Level 8 wards to borrow... One of the wards was willing to lend it to us but when I sent my junior up, she came back empty-handed, telling me that the NO refused to lend it to us... In the end, had to request one from the CSSD but just too bad for me, the doctor came before I could send someone down to get the item... As a result, the doctor talked to me in a very sarcastic manner... Okay, I'm fine with that cuz it was partly my fault too...
But the outcome was... The procedure did not even happen!!! Why? According to the doctor, the patient's lungs were constricted due to some old problem... And so, I got some sarcastic talk from the doctor and went through all the trouble for nothing! *Dumb!*...
Gonna rest now... Having a bad headache too...
