Good.one

Don't ever try to separate a fight.
A female eye doctor lecturer told my class in Medical school that people that separate fights usually end up more injured than the fighters

So.please do not separate people that are fighting


Stand far away and be talking to them

[quote author=Remmymartins post=50468575]Pls don't judge me, I just need your candid opinions and also note I do not self medicate I am just very curious to know what's wrong with me.
3rd of October I was at the hospital to see my gynae to complain about vaginal discharge and he prescribed a HVS/MCS test for me and also gave me klovanil suppository to start after the test sample had been taken, 1every night for 5days, he said this was to calm the discharge and the burning sensation.
I proceeded to the lab and the test was done, after a week I went back for the result (this is because I travelled out of town) ... it's says YEILDED MODERATE GROWTH OF STAPH AUREUS AFTER 24HRS OF INCUBATION AT 37°C .
i took the result back to my gynae , but unfortunately he's out of the country for now ,the other doctor I met said he doesn't believe in the result because of the procedure labs use in carrying out MCS and that I am just worrying myself for nothing. That these bacterias exists in our bodies and they must have mistakenly picked it someother part and not in my vagina bla bla bla
So I insisted he treats me for what the test result shows, then he gave me CHI GYNOCARE VAGINAL OVULES , 1 every night for 3days. I completed it last and I've been feeling feverish plus aches in my joints although I had a very stressful day yesterday.
I want to know is it the staph taking its toll on me, or am I just worried for nothing, because to me staph AUREUS seems like a big issue..
and also I noticed pimples on my checks it's unusual. I only have breakouts on my jawline and chin because I was diagnosed of PCOS/Hormonal imbalance 2years ago.
I am still battling with that I don't need no staph in my life right now.
Attached to this is a copy of the test result and the leaflet from the drug he prescribed, pls advice me.
Godbless you [/quo


Repeat the tests at a different high profile lab and take it to a good doctor to prescribe for You. Prescribing over the phone is un professional and unethical

Yieldings:
If you find out where she lives, you and your husband shouldn't show up at her house unannounced because you want to thank her. You've thanked her via text but I definitely understand the need for wanting to thank her further and in a better way. Get your hospital bills sorted out. You can thank her again the next time you see her at church but do it quietly because if you make noise, other people will then be flocking to her for money. She called you into her car to speak with you, so she seems like a private person and someone who helps without broadcasting it to the world, which is so rare to find. After you've sorted your hospital bills, do something tangible with the extra money she gave you. When you and your husband are doing better financially, let's say months from now or a year from now, your family can give her a small gift to show your appreciation and again, don't make noise about it. That would be your way of saying you haven't forgotten what she did.

He sells Medical , GRE, IELTS, TOEFL, Guineas book of records, And other literature, engineering, general textbooks and Materials at good prices. His name is Chukwuma and this is his phone number 07069692144. You can call him for any book material


Caveat Emptor; Negotiate and buy at buyers risk. I have no business links, no business connections with the guy. I like his books and his prices and last time I bought Barron, He was the only one that had the book for sale. His prices are fair in my opinion

The child may need to be seen and examined in the hospital by a specialist called a paediatric surgeon. The child should be taken to the hospital preferably a teaching hospital.or good private hospital

Search ask a visa officer in the Nairaland search box

UPDATE JUNE 2024;

Most of this information is outdated

Best options now to My opinion are UK plab, Saudi arabia and Dubai (uae), Ireland and South Africa

1)
of which Dubai needs 2 years post house job experience.writing then writing uae prometric exam in Ghana(nearest to Nigeria centre), if you pass fly to Dubai(uae) with a 3 month visiting visa and your Nigerian certificates certified by ministry of foreign affairs, medical tests and look for a job
If You get a job in Dubai, convert your visiting visa to work visa there in Dubai(uae) you can also look at cheaper non Dubai emirates to save more money if you want to write exams for ukplab, USMLE exams, Australia AMC to.move later

Also
he following examinations have been designated as DHCC Approved Physician Exams of which no further extra need to pass Dubai uae exams

• Australian Medical Council Exam – www.amc.org.au/exam.asp • TRAS (Ireland -Temporary Registration Assessment Scheme) Parts I, II, and III – www.medicalcouncil.ie/

• PLAB (UK) Parts I and II – www.gmc-uk.org/register/default.htm

• USMLE (US) Parts I and II (CK) – www.usmle.org

• Applicants certified by ECFMG are eligible for consideration without being required to pass an additional examination.

• Applicants who have passed Parts I and II of the Royal College exams are eligible for consideration without being required to pass an additional examination.

• Applicants who have passed the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Exam Parts I and II are eligible for consideration without being required to pass as additional exam


Also a religious sensitive and patient sensitive environment

2)
Saudi Arabia has a 3 year post graduation requirement then applying through 2 major agents in Nigeria, agents collect cash and arrange visas, arrange ticket and hospital postings from Saudi hospitals. It is a religiously sensitive environment with female restrictions but guys go to gather money to write exams to move up to Dubai (uae), UK plab, US USMLE, Australia AMC,
also need Nigerian ministry of foreign affairs certificate verification, mdcn certificate of good standing, maybe transcripts, maybe medicals. Saudi Arabia processing takes some time too..some months....ask the agents and ask questions too at the Saudi embassy





3)

Uk plab is all about getting your IELTS academic 7.o minimum in all sections and 7.5 cumulative average

Then registering your scores on GMC website and getting your GMC number

Applying and registering for March or November plab1 exam international exam dates in Nigeria, Sudan, southafrica, Dubai any centre of choice

You can also write plab1 multiple times in the UK if You have the cash

After passing Plab1 apply for UK visiting visa to go to UK and write plab2 exam and 1 month of plab2 school in hammed, swammy or Samson plab2 school is advised before exam


Find out if there is need for UK clinical attachments

If You pass plab2 in UK, get a job offer and fly back to Nigeria to write UKvi IELTS and apply for tier 2 labour shortage visa in uk nigerian embassywith Your job sponsorship letter
May need Nigerian ministry of foreign affairs certificate verification, mdcn certificate of good standing, maybe transletter, maybe medicals


Some people go for UK masters and write all the plab 1 and 2 there in UK and convert their UK student visa to UK tier2 work visa there in the UK for a UK government fee after passing plab1 and plab2
You cannot convert a uk visiting visa to UK tier2 work visa in the UK even if You pass plab1 and 2 and get a job and a job sponsorship letter. You have to come back to Nigeria and apply for a work visa tier 2visa with your letter of employment and job sponsorship letter and number from your UK medical employer and also do the IELTS ukvi exam if you did only IELTS academic before writing plab.
You would be given a 30 days visiting visa to travel to Uk and You will collect Your 3 year temporary residence and workpermit from uk government inside Uk.after flying and moving to the uk within 30 days of receiving your temporary 30 day visa.

You can only convert Your uk student visa to UK tier2 workvisa after passing UK plab1 and plab2 and getting a job and a job sponsorship letter there and you pay the visa conversion/ adjustment/ fees to the appropriate UK government agency/ authority there in the uk

I also heard You can do the IELTS ukvi academic before taking plab1 and still use the same IELTS ukvi academic result for applying for your uk tier2 work visa after passing plab 1 and plab2

Each ielts exam result only lasts two years.
Best Ielts test for plab is ielts ukvi academic

Doctors who wish to apply for temporary registration must complete fully Forms TR1/TR2 and attach the relevant supporting documents. The Forms will be considered by the Medical Council and assessed as to the applicant's suitability to apply for temporary registration.
The Medical Council will determine the applicant's eligibility to sit the Assessment Scheme or to be exempted from the Assessment Scheme. An applicant who considers he/she meets the criteria for exemption from the Assessment Scheme must specify, on the application form, the grounds on which the exemption is being sought.

All other applications will be considered for the purpose of sitting the Assessment Scheme. Applicants may be required to fulfil other conditions as specified by the Medical Council, to enable the Medical Council to make a decision in each case. Any expenses incurred by an applicant in fulfilling the Medical Council's requirements for granting temporary registration, are the responsibility of the applicant.

Applicants who fail to complete fully Forms TR1/TR2 and/or who fail to enclose the specified documents shall have their applications declared invalid by the Medical Council and the fee of IR400 pounds shall be forfeited.

If its non science and non academic, the only way I think he can easily get unskilled jobs is Canada or the u.s, but he has to go through a student visa to make things easier.
Canada should be cheaper...use a cheap school. Maybe diploma in music course but he might have to show the embassy proof of talent ability if they ask.
There is no guarantee though but worth trying g


Canada or U.s using music or acting or mass comm diploma, bsc,

He should tell the embassy he is coming back to use the knowledge from his studies to develop Nigeria



If he wants to go to Germany , he has to learn German and pay 8000 to a German embassy approved German bank for German government to be giving him monthly payment from his money when he is studying...but he has to still work and make money


Do your research and ask questions..


All these are simply my opinions
