funmisticqueen:You are far from humble my dear,your utterances gave you away. Yes there are good doctors,but the majority of them are terrible,no one is talking about their skills or training,we are talking about the lackadaisical attitudes, the nurses are the worst,in fact the medical profession just like every other profession is in dire straits, but madam your profession deserves more,when you feel angry or dissatisfied and don't give a 101% some1 dies,yes a human being with loved ones 4 Likes |

fabiano09:you think we dont know that. Put yourself in our shoes and you would sing a different tune after 3 hours. Would you be nice to everone if you saw a minimum of 120 people between 8 and 4pm and that is just one of your responsiblities for the day. Besides it is not only doctors that are lackadasical, secetaries, bankers, lawyers, especially those in government are lackadasical to their work. Didnt yoy ponder why people just opted to do yahoo yahoo or ritual killing instead |

IamaNigerianGuy:hope you're aware there's malpractice liability for an anesthesia error? ,only that naija is a lawless country,it'll be a wasted effort |

fabiano09:your opinion, but please do not mistake my wariness to the nigerian patient(a potential troublemaker, and scammer) and blatant hatred towards the nigerian's mentality to us doctors as arrogance, the distance between them is as far as the east is from the west |

funmisticqueen:medicine isn't the toughest profession,naija is broken for sure,nothing works,yes doctors go thru hell just like every other sector in naija,but my question to you is this,at what point does a typical doctor in naija stop caring?,like death doesn't affect you anymore? what about the nurses? do they have same excuses have? why are they worse than doctors? |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:16pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
Arijude:so if i ckme to your place of work and somebody treats me rudely or commits some other blunder i can burn it down right? Let me get my matches |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:17pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
fabiano09:depends on the doctor in question. |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:19pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
fabiano09:medicine is not the toughest, please tell me what is, and dont tell me programming, cos i dont think any profession is riskier than health sciences |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:24pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
funmisticqueen:well maybe 'tough' isn't the right word,I get what you mean though,am just saying in school medicine isn't the toughest, post schooling it's surely the toughest because your job has a consequence on someone's life,coupled with the naija factor too 1 Like |

AuroraB: Oh yes I did..I was just thinking of death like the pain was crazy.i tried to even open my eyes or move my arms at least..i could hear them but it was impossible. Sadly this stuff has happened to so many ppl.. a friend of mine was operated upon and he was also awake but unable to move. This operation was in a private hospital o.. paid almost 300k for it and yet I had to go through so much pain... im glad I pulled through |

funmisticqueen:My advice to you is this,you have to think of y you became a doctor in the first player,you have to see above the rot,try your best,and if you still can't face crazy nigerian patients who u say are mostly scammers,plz resign and do something else because our actions have consequences 1 Like |

NiRfreak:oga, just try to dey research small before diving into conclusions.Although, Anaesthesia awareness can be caused by inadequate anaesthesia,its not the oñly cause. Some very few people just have a body system thats immune to the anaesthetic medications. The surgeons usually don't realise this because of the administration of another drug called a muscle relaxant which kind of paralyses the body. It is a possible complication that isn't unique to Nigeria. It happens even in western nations. Even the USA made a movie about it some years ago called "Awake'. 2 Likes |

Ruhamah23: I'm also wondering... The blood pressure and pulse will be high, tearing etc. An average muscle relaxant lasts 20-40 minutes. Maybe there was poor monitoring. Analgesics are supposed to be repeated or combined. Anaesthesia+analgesia+relaxant. Relaxant will call for intubation and controlled ventilation. The story may not be complete until we hear from the anaesthetist. 1 Like 1 Share |

fabiano09:please just one question,is there malpractice laibility if a paracetamol tablet did not cure your headache? I am just curious, if Mr A went for surgery and the anaesthesia did not work and he started moving and shouting and screaming, 1. If they dont hold him down his movements will make him bleed to death 2. The surgeon may be startled and knife will pierce where it isnt supposed to cut. 3. If Mr is HIV positive and the surgeon mistakenly cuts himslef due to no 2 above, it means he would have to take prophylaxis drugs for a whole month and the side effects of those drug which happen most of the time,includes, vommitting, diarrhoea, skin rash and hallucinations at least that was my experience(i thought i was runnung mad). There is no thanks from the patient. Always put yourself in the other persons shoes 1 Like |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by IamaNigerianGuy(m): 10:34pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
fabiano09: In a public hospital for instance where a doctor has to use iv anesthesia like ketamine just to save lives (as opposed to inhalational anaesthetics) you would sue the doctor ? Is he or she supposed to buy equipment as well as provide his skill ? Even in private clinics, how many patients can afford standard care with the minimum wage at N18,000 ? That represents four and a half packs of Augmentin !! The Nigerian government is incompetent, the Nigerian people are dirt poor, Nigerian doctors are heroes and heroines. FACT. 2 Likes |

fabiano09:i wont resign cos despite everything, i still love what i do cos there are still some good people, left, and i take it a day at a time. But i know i deserve better, hence i am writing exams and taking the first flight outta here |

fabiano09:by the way be honest, this advice you are giving me do you follow it yourself. |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:41pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
funmisticqueen:lol did u seriously type these? common sense isn't applicable in law,u can't sue for all those occasions because you signed up for them,but a patient never signed up to be operated on without anaesthesia, a patient doesn't expect to have a tool forgotten in his abdomen etc 2 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:45pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
funmisticqueen:ofcourse I don't, but we agree on something,your job is too important to let emotions cloud your better judgement,your reward isn't even in heaven like they tell the teachers,your reward stares you in your face with a smile,that patient you saved,the family members,their joy is your reward 2 Likes |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:46pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
fabiano09:that is another topic entirely, so pls just answer the question, i have seen a surgery, where the patient could only afford the surgery but not the anaesthesia but it was an urgent surgery, and the patient signed a consent to do the surgery like that. I dont need to tell you the pains the patient went through and the doctors kept pushing iv paracetamol in his system, so please should the doctor be sued for that |
Re: Medical Doctor Wakes Up During Her Surgery (Photos) by Nobody: 10:48pm On Nov 23, 2017 |
fabiano09:you havent still answered my question o, let me just watch you playing politics with words |

IamaNigerianGuy:To be honest I feel you bro,I know what you guys go thru,my brother is a doctor,am not saying I ain't aware of what goes on in hospitals,what am saying is you signed up for it and should never relent because of poor renumerations or dissatisfaction |

Just do your best my dear,naija will get better,the medical profession will improve but we must all do our best to achieve this,look beyond the non existent thank you's you don't get from us,the vilification and insults,or what you went thru in school to become a doctor,be the difference,maybe we the lesser mortals will walk in your footsteps |
