DR. WAJEEHA ISSUES

Hey people, I am in a good mood. Good mood to write . ICU Things! A little away from my covid warriors up above. There is nothing worse than taming a wild cheetah . The same way , there is nothing like saving a wild emergency physician in a ICU. But what makes you stay , you need some meat for survival . What meat does ICU give you ? Such meat is called Central lines , arterial lines, intubation . They just make up a bad morning to a good one! You understand and value Emergency department even more ... Why? Because taking a call to do such invasive procedure out there in open under such uncontrolled environment is no joke. So far so much Bye

Hello people, Well ,if the title has not got enough attention let me tell you clearly. Last week I spotted grey hair on my scalp👵😓. Man! I've grown old! or I' m growing old! Meanwhile , I am busy thinking of the possible causes that might have led to it 1) I've grown old! 2) STRESS! Because I work in emergency?😒 3) I don't care of my health. 4) I've poor hair care! Advantage : My patients would take me more seriously thinking I am an experienced physician... Wait , I wear a headscarf. Good Idea to dodge matches away! Plan of care :  Forget all of it plan next nap in advance! So far so much!

Hello my fellow social media addicts, Whatsup? After my first blog , that was more about adjusting , rather tuning my pace in the ICU from ER . This is just the continuation. While in ER , where you're the aggressive one person who is counseling the family on what has acutely happened , the random febrile illness is a septic shock , the need for investigation and payment of bomb of a price for staying in a intensive care unit . The struggle is real. You explain every moment , you explain the progress minute by minute , hour by hour . You justify the need of investigation in sections . The amount of stress I realized is Oh my God! Yes , there is so much stress! As Emergency Physicians we juggle so much! to be precise "The Emergency Department".  You got to have that flair to differentiate you from every other medigeek ! You got to have that flair to differentiate you from a lawyer ! You got to have that flair that makes you better than any psychotherapist !

Hey people, I am back. Chilled out.On a break From ...fast life ,annoying patient attendants...But wait ... I already miss emergency! For people who are clueless about the rant, I've been posted in ICUs lately.  Life is different here, very different... slow...  All the jugads you do in emergency don't seem to work here, things are static here.  The only thing the staff here tell me is , mam slow down! This is not ER ! Things here go slowly !Nothing will happen. It seemed like holding a cheetah in a zoo !  I go to a stable patient, reassess him . Run back to my ICU consultant...When can we shift him out? I am so not used to patient not moving out of my area when intervention is not required. The only thing that keeps me hooked up in the beeping walls is my book. Book , that teaches emergency. Few days away from PPEs!  Rest Almighty knows! So far so much.
