Unemployment! Being broke!

To me, that's a flimsy excuse.....

Youth should learn to be self-employed, and not to depend on white collar jobs......

Make that cheddah, money is meant to be made!!!!

HungerBAD:
Marriage .

Another bloody truth....

inourcare:
Can we all talk about this,
cc: Lagusta, anybody.

There are a lot of stuff worse than divorce.....

1) domestic violence

2) chronic infidelity

3) laziness....

These can tear either the husband or wife into bits unless they both call it quits....

Thanks for mentioning

JESUSBOIY:
thank you sir, please what about the employment part? Is Age not considered when one is looking for a job as a doctor?

That's one sweet thing about a doctor.....

Its not about the age but about your intelligence and how u applied yourself during your house job and NYSC, then some hospitals would mention post-NYSC experience shaa.....

JESUSBOIY:
A friend of mine who is 25 years old wants to go to medical school. He is really worried about his age , he is going to graduate at age 33 or so and he is troubled about employment at that age.


Is it too late?

CC: lagusta

Its never too late to study medicine as far as you have the zeal and passion for it.....

Thanks for mentioning

my worst ever is blackberry storm

I'm so sorry, all my friends I know have all graduated and aren't in unilorin anymore.....

But u can contact any of the christian fellowships in the place, they will surely find a solution to your plight....

Once again, congrats.....

Hilariously nice concept.....

Wishing the couple happy married life tho

Kondomatic:
Have you not seen boobs that got guts?


Hold them down with tight bra and the tits will still point out.


And they are normally round and always stand out like a rough 17 nut at the tip of 17 bolt

Haaaaaa!!!!

Yes, those girls exist, but very rare to come by.....

I am a witness to that.....

Lol

That's my alma mater!!!!

So that bush is still there

Na wa oooo....

A friend/colleague of mine was bitten by one of those snakes.....

That Bush is a heath and safety hazard and should be cleared without delay....

Anyway hit like if you're "better by far" and share if you graduated from the college

Mecca/Hajj is a holy land, only Muslims, and once in a year.


But the places i listed are Tourists' Attractions, where you have fun, nice time, enjoy yourself, see nature wonders, and history.

Tourist attractions are visited by Everyone, Muslims, Christians, Idol worshippers, everybody and is everyday of the year.


Thanks.....

Lolol, I actually thought it was more than that ooo, hahhahaha.....

@explorers.....

Please google how many people visit the holy Kaaba every year for the hajj, you may have to alter your list....

Thanks.....

Hahahahaha e don pain am. He has resorted to abuse. And you call yourself a doctor?? Have you ever managed a psychiatric patient? If so, you must be beating a hell outta them with your temper!!! Hiann!!!

I'm sorry for the outburst.....

Next time read my post before concluding....

Thanks

sgtponzihater1:
I hope so too. Thalasemias, strictly speaking are not hemoglobinopathies, though some thalassemias can be, since hemoglobinopathies is really alteration in structure, while the other deal with production. There however is no need to query anyone's qualification, if u feel u know better simply explain professionally.

At least you speak more professionally jare.....

I believe we are saying the same thing, truly not all thalassemias are hemoglobinopathies but those types are very rare and incompatible with life..... We all know that....

Let's talk about common stuff...

Once again, thanks for your mature approach

sgtponzihater1:
My guy don't say that. U should go to his school and contend his degree, we can't know it all. Among the top 3 causes of death in a research done at John-Hopkins last year was found to be doctors errors, those doctors also don't deserve medical degrees?

Meanwhile, A lady who has 2 previous children and is rhesus negative gave birth recently, a direct coombs test and blood group was done for the new baby and the child was rhesus negative, I was happy for the child, question is would the woman need rhogam?, bearing the fact that the blood group of the other children are not known?, and they are not present to take their blood group.

Lastly hemoglobinopathies and thalassemias are actually different. and are on different topic. Not all thalasemias are hemoglobinopathies. Do ur research.

No one is saying they are the same, what I am saying (and pointing out clearly) is that some thalassemias are a type of hemoglobinopathy, simple....

I have given you all sources and references... And please not from wikipedia.... Read up and let's move on abeg.....

escodotman:
Hehehe is that what you were taught in school? Is that all you could give? Wikipedia?...i thought you would give us stuff from Google scholar! Nice try

You are very stupid!!!

Is this a wikipedia source??

Did u even read my post!!!

Oh God how did I end up with this dimwit!!!!

escodotman:
It is you who is ignorant of basic Genetics. You can only say haemoglobinopathy is a form of Thalassaemia and not the other way round. Stop disgracing the school you finished from. I dont want to insult your lecturers cos some of them may be my friends or senior colleagues

Just whistling by....

emoglobin is produced by genes that control the expression of the hemoglobin protein. Defects in these genes can produce abnormal hemoglobins and anemia, which are conditions termed "hemoglobinopathies". Abnormal hemoglobins appear in one of three basic circumstances:
Structural defects in the hemoglobin molecule. Alterations in the gene for one of the two hemoglobin subunit chains, alpha (a) or beta (b), are called mutations. Often, mutations change a single amino acid building block in the subunit. Most commonly the change is innocuous, perturbing neither the structure nor function of the hemoglobin molecule. Occasionally, alteration of a single amino acid dramatically disturbs the behavior of the hemoglobin molecule and produces a disease state. Sickle hemoglobin exemplifies this phenomenon.

Diminished production of one of the two subunits of the hemoglobin molecule. Mutations that produce this condition are termed "thalassemias." Equal numbers of hemoglobin alpha and beta chains are necessary for normal function. Hemoglobin chain imbalance damages and destroys red cells thereby producing anemia. Although there is a dearth of the affected hemoglobin subunit, with most thalassemias the few subunits synthesized are structurally normal.

Abnormal associations of otherwise normal subunits. A single subunit of the alpha chain (from the a-globin locus) and a single subunit from the b-globin locus combine to produce a normal hemoglobin dimer. With severe a-thalassemia, the b-globin subunits begin to associate into groups of four (tetramers) due to the paucity of potential a-chain partners. These tetramers of b-globin subunits are functionally inactive and do not transport oxygen. No comparable tetramers of alpha globin subunits form with severe beta-thalassemia. Alpha subunits are rapidly degraded in the absence of a partner from the beta-globin gene cluster (gamma, delta, beta globin subunits).

Well?

The hemoglobinopathies encompass all genetic diseases of hemoglobin. They fall into two main groups: thalassemia syndromes and structural hemoglobin variants (abnormal hemoglobins). α- and β-thalassemia are the main types of thalassemia; the main structural hemoglobin variants are HbS, HbE and HbC. There are many subtypes and combined types in each group. The highly variable clinical manifestations of the hemoglobinopathies range from mild hypochromic anemia to moderate hematological disease to severe, lifelong, transfusion-dependent anemia with multiorgan involvement. Stem-cell transplantation is the preferred treatment for the severe forms of thalassemia. Supportive, rather than curative, treatment consists of periodic blood transfusions for life, combined with iron chelation. Drugs to treat the symptoms of sickle-cell disease include analgesics, antibiotics, ACE inhibitors and hydroxyurea. Blood transfusions should be given only when strictly indicated. More than 90% of patients currently survive into adulthood. Optimally treated patients have a projected life span of 50 to 60 years.

The guy read wikipedia, when he knows wikipedia is the worst reference any doctor would go to.....

Nigerian doctors..... Na wa ooo

sgtponzihater1:
Where exactly are u driving at, asking a medical professional all these questions, like u are his lecturer. If a medical professional doesn't know the difference between disease (SC, SThal etc), and Anaemia( ,SS), then medicine in Nigeria is bleak. I follow Nigerian doctors and it's time for a change. Medical jousting, slandering, and name calling is at its best in Nigeria. These have to stop.

Someone that doesn't know that thalassemia is a form of hemoglobinopathy does not deserve the medical degree abeg.....
