I survived GP

Oh my giddy aunt. I knew Trust Health Care would be busy, but I never expected to have a near death experience. OK, perhaps I exaggerate a little, but the run was seriously busy. Especially the days TF was there. There were a couple of days where I didn't get home until 7pm. That's nuts for a GP attachment! Oh well, I can't really complain as I asked to go there, and I knew it would be hard work. It was worth it though since I learnt heaps and still had lots of fun despite the chaos.

Now to the world of psychiatry! First day today. I nearly died of boredom waiting to see a patient. I was allocated a small desk in the cubicle area and was waiting quietly for a consultant to see a patient. However I think I was probably too quiet and they kept forgetting to tell me when they were about to see someone. Finally at 3pm, after reading the 4th yr notes for the millionth time, I managed to see a couple of people but nothing particularly dramatic happened. After that, I was out the door faster than a speeding bullet!

On Saturday, I'm going to be a model patient for the surgical part 1 exams! I'm quite looking forward to that. It will be a good experience to see what it's like for the registrars without having to sit the exam myself. I hope they don't tell me to be a hernia patient. That would suck. *cough*cough*
