labodinho: "siddon dey look" u ve'nt included hands on chin.....missed u a lot,been a y,aw was/is yur pharmacology test dah day.,if u can recollect.

Missed you too, boss.
The pharm test...hmmmmmm
The professor gave all of us 10 points, for attempting the test! He didn't tell us our scores, guess all of us banged!

But i'm now over the phobia sha, wrote the exam and passed. Besides, i guess the first part of cholinergics and adrenergics was the worst, i'm finding the other parts much more easier now. Thanks for asking, boss!

lomaxx:

uhmmm..


You have Medscape?

Yeah, but haven't ever used it, maybe when I subscribe!!!

haven't you guys started CVS and CNS pharmacology

Lagusta:

Yeah, but haven't ever used it, maybe when I subscribe!!!

Medscape is the stuffiest app ever for medicine. There's nothing in medicine you won't find there properly dealt with...conditions, drugs, references, procedures. Na wetin I dey carry shine

Then there's this app Merck's Manual. It's a paid app though. Its equally good.

There's Schwartz Manual of Surgery. A bit stuffy on the surgery side. Haven't had time for surgery in a while.

Lagusta:

CVS was majorly the adrenergics and cholinergics and it just wasn't funny.

Just starting CNS now, don't tell me it's anoda horror film in the making.

And did I add that Medscape has a tab for differential diagnosis for every disorder?

During my case presentations, it really helps me to rule out stuff intelligently.

It's always cute when I'm presenting and a consultant stops me halfway to ask " why did you ask so so and so?''

And I flash that 'medscape' smile way I don derive tight differentials. It's a must-have

which skul are u at? Cos am doing cns pharmacology ds semester. From Delsu

hey guys its been awhile here. hope you all doing good.

please if you know of any openings in your schools for housemanahip please holla right here.

talking about medical apps, android really has good ones. in addition to medscape you can download the app "on exam" this one helped me prepare for finals. its grouped according to systems basically showing you pointers on how to take a structured history, physical exams following IPPA and specific tests you might want to do according to that system. Also contains many clinical signs and practical steps to two eliciting them. Those in fourth year starting clinicals will particularly find it useful.

Another one to get is called "medical doctor". importantly it has lung and heart sounds you can play . both normal and abnormal. it can help you identify fine crepitations, coarse creps, rhonci, wheezes, split heart sounds, and various heart mummurs.

Those of you still in the struggle wish you best of luck. one day it'll all be over . its not all about being intelligent, many intelligent people have failed out, you also have to be wise.

Whatever you do just know the basics and know what you're supposed to know. don't go start reading mega stuffs to show off at the expense of the basic stuff you should know. You will be forgiven if you don't know about Meigs syndrome but no examiner will forgive you if you don't know basic stuff about hernia, intestinal obstruction, acute abdomen or appendicitis.

One other thing, get close to repeat students. They have valuable experience that can help you and usually have some very useful materials. that's one tip I learnt back then.

lol, how do you mean "free"?

those guys up north are literally begging for doctors, I would've loved to go but I want to get more experience in a private setting first, so that I won't be disgraced among my junior ones!!!

Lagusta: those guys up north are literally begging for doctors, I would've loved to go but I want to get more experience in a private setting first, so that I won't be disgraced among my junior ones!!!

I'll put my ears on the ground share. thanks for the heads up.

for the disgrace thingy a consultant that wants to embarrass you well still do so, that's the unfortunate thing about med school in Nigeria. you should be used to it by now. Right from time I never cared , you can't kill me. after all your rant you'll still teach me the correct thing and I learn.

Lagusta:


I don't think so ooooo, I believe he has to start all over again, its the same anyway, a medic that wants to be a dentist has to start again in dental school.... Remember, a nurse can never be a doctor until he gets his MBBS!!!


Don't worry, dentists are also competitive, DR. Sid is a dentist, he just loves music, he also consults, and u can travel out to SA, australia, canada, etc

THERE IS NO DENTISTRY IN YOUR SCHOOL SO YOU HAV NO BLEEPIN IDEA OF WAT DENTISTRY IS ALL ABOUT; in DENTISTRY, YOU STUDY MEDICINE AND SURGERY IN A PERIOD OF 5YRS AND USE THE REMAININ 1YR TO DO DENTAL COURSES..ITS ONLY O&G WE DONT DO;;Btw, Hav U EVER HEARED OF A MAXILOFACIAL SURGEON IN UR LYF? OR A CRANIOFACIAL SURGEON? OR AN ORAL PHYSICIAN? OR AN ORAL PATHOLOGY?? I GUESS NOT...D FORMER CMD LASUTH IS A MAXILOFACIAL SURGEON, THE PRESENT ASSISTANT CMD OF LASUTH IS A MAXILOFACIAL SURGEON, THE FORMER CMD OF UDUTH IS AN ORAL PATHOLOGIST, THE FORMER NMA CHAIRMAN EDO STATE CHAPTER IS A MAXILOFACIAL SURGEON;;;OF COURSE U CAN GET MBBS AFTA BDS IN 18MONTHS BT DATS NOT EVEN NECCESSARY because U KNW ALL WAT DEY KNW...SO SHUT UPPPPPP
