busy busy busy

Oh my god..first day at work after my long leave and so so *@£$! busy. Firstly did my rounds in antenatal ward. Not too bad...had only a few patients that i need to see. Then off to gynae outpatient clinic. Saw patients from about 10 am till 1 pm..then accompanied my consultant to do pre-op rounds for cases in the afternoon.

Manage to grab chicken and prawn jambalaya for lunch...then went to theater at 130 pm and performed two elective cases. First case, diagnostic laparoscopy followed by a small resection of a possible endometriotic mass over the broad ligament. Next, did a hysterectomy for a lady with menorrhagia secondary to uterine fibroid. All the time looking at the clock so that i do not overshoot the 5pm mark as i am oncall..... then whilst i was writing up the operative notes...cun cun 5 pm...colleague hand over an emergency LSCS (caesarean section) for poor progress... alamak....

ok..ok...so introduce myself...and then JUST BEFORE starting...got a bleep!! Midwife from ward says got late decelerations on CTG!! aiyo.... howlah i can see the patient... hmmm then i arranged for the lead midwife to go see what the hell is happening. Appears that it was a pathological CTG post induction of labour...ok ok...so decision for back to back LSCS... (hungry somemore that time).

After second LSCS,,hurried to grab dinner...then aiyo...still got 4 patients to review in antenatal ward and one patient to have an ARM done... hurry hurry hurry...



by the time i knew it was 830pm and handover period, my bleep went off again. Its my colleague bleeping me and coming on for the long lonely night... sigh...what a relief...

i am oncall again tomorrow...
