old rheology notes; from my studygram

First day of my internship begins from tomorrow. I'm equally as excited as I am nervous. Hope it goes well!

Hello Tumblr,

[foggyscholar]

There’s so much I would love to do with my life like cosplay, write, read, travel, dance…. Just so much but my brain just can’t split it up… it has to be hyper focused on one thing at a time and I’m not too sure why. But, I’ve been wanting to write again.

Gonna crash out for a minute because I literally feel like my head is about explode from all of these goddamn thoughts.

I literally start my MBA program next week and I’m already thinking about what I’m gonna do as soon as I’m done.

I wanna get my Masters in Public Health. I also wanna work in healthcare but I don’t know if I want to do medicine, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, veterinary medicine, etc. like I’m actually going crazy right now.

I’ve already compiled a long as list of med schools to apply to. I’ve damn near mapped out what prereqs I’m gonna take in the next two years. I even have what freaking speciality I want to do. Simultaneously, I’ve been looking into MPH programs because in order to do the speciality I want to do I need an MPH. Which means I wouldn’t be able to pursue an MD/PHD degree w/o getting my MPH first. But I don’t meet the requirements for these programs. Meaning, it’ll take me at least a year before I can apply to an MPH program. I would do WGU accelerated program but it isn’t CEPH accredited and I want my MPH from an accredited University.

Accreditation means a lot to me because I had dreams of being Prevention Medical Doctor. But taking time to qualify for a CEPH accredited MPH pushes back my timeline to take prereqs for med schools. Also, who the hell am I gonna shadow? Med schools are difficult to get into. How the eff am I gonna study for the MCAT!?

I considered doing the tuition free LPN program at my local college. It’s free, 10-months, plus LPN’s make decent pay. And I did have aspirations at some point to be a public health RN. Speaking of RN, there’s a tuition free accelerated ASBN program in my area but idk if I really want to be a nurse. If I did pursue it I would go into Interventional radiology.

Oh, but I like pharmacy too. I have tons of pharmacy experience and although I disliked retail I can pursue a PharmD and go into something else. PharmD programs are a lot easier to get in. But wait, where the hell am I gonna get the money to go to pharmacy school!? Oh, I could do a PharmD/Phd like how I planned to do a MD/PHd, I like doing research.

Or I should consider PA school. It’s much more affordable, less time and less prereqs. But wait, I don’t wanna be a physician assistant. Or at least I don’t think so.

I could always do sonography or radiology at my local community college. Or dental hygienist? Or radiation therapist? Sleep therapist? Clinical Lab tech? Respiratory therapist?

But why would I go and get an associate’s after getting a bachelor’s? I’d feel like I would be downgrading. 2+ years of school! I’m better off just doing the ASBN program! Don’t even get me started on all of the creative shit I want to do.

Okay, I’m done crashing out now. My brain hurts and I’m gonna take a nap. It’s so frustrating having a thousand colliding thoughts every second of the day. It leaves my body incapacitated. Always stuck between doing nothing or doing everything all at once.

Here are some scopes of PharmD in India:

PharmD stands for Doctor of Pharmacy, which is a six-year program that includes five years of academic study and one year of internship or residency training.

PharmD is a professional degree that prepares students to work as pharmacists in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, retail pharmacies, research institutions, and pharmaceutical companies.

PharmD graduates are qualified to dispense medication, provide drug information, and monitor patients' health outcomes. They are also trained to collaborate with other healthcare professionals, such as doctors and nurses, to provide comprehensive patient care.

The scope of PharmD in India is promising due to the growing demand for healthcare services, increased focus on patient safety and quality of care, and the expanding pharmaceutical industry.

PharmD graduates can work as clinical pharmacists, drug information specialists, medication safety officers, pharmacovigilance professionals, and research scientists. They can also pursue academic and research careers, teaching and mentoring future pharmacists.

In India, the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) is the regulatory body that governs the practice of pharmacy and approves pharmacy programs. The PCI has recognized the PharmD program, and graduates are eligible to register as pharmacists and practice pharmacy in India.

The starting salary of a PharmD graduate in India varies based on the job profile, location, and experience. On average, a clinical pharmacist can earn between 2-5 lakhs per annum, while a drug safety associate can earn between 3-7 lakhs per annum.

Some challenges that PharmD graduates may face in India include limited job opportunities in some areas, lack of recognition and awareness of the PharmD degree among some employers and healthcare professionals, and the need for continuous professional development to keep up with the changing healthcare landscape.

For example, I can pop my ears at will by shifting my tongue. This is normal and I’m going to proven right I think

When the Warframe brainrot grips you-

I’ve started a light preliminary search on pathogenic fungi that would be a surrogate/stand-in for techrot (yes, I know the techrot is supposed to be a precursor to the infested and that the infested are parasites. Fungal infection just fit more imo with the whole appearance, spores, etc.)

To that end, it also got me thinking about potential drugs and theoretical mechanisms of action for a fictional drug to treat techrot

I didn't understand what people meant when they said that the patients where I've done medical school and am doing residency are "very sick," and I'm starting to realize that this is because I haven't actually had context for practicing medicine in a location where patients are less sick, and it is not in fact all that average to think, "It's a good day when I have a patient with a functioning liver and kidneys!" or be pleasantly surprised when I don't have to list "type 2 diabetes mellitis, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, chronic kidney disease stage X, heart failure (of some sort)" on the chart's problem list just, like, at default baseline, with a side of chronic opioid use and/or intravenous drug abuse.

On the other hand, those same people were correct: it's making me better at treating all of those things and handling comorbidities really quick!

One of the big things I keep running into is pain management, because three common things for me to see are liver disease and kidney failure. To simplify it a lot, liver disease precludes the use of acetamniphen/Tylenol, and kidney failure precludes the use of ibuprofen/NSAIDs. There are other pain treatment medications, but I have less experience with them, and they tend to either be for more specific/adjuvant uses (like lidocaine, the gabas, antidepressants, steroids) or opioids... and I've literally seen two patients in the past week who had to get Narcan for opioid overuse.

On the other hand, obviously people in the hospital often have very legitimate reasons to be in pain and we don't want to leave them that way. But it's a hard line to walk when the family is asking questions like "Why is dad not getting enough pain medication?" and "Why is dad talking to the walls about his days in the war?" or when you get people pulling shenanigans like, "I'm allergic to Tylenol, give me Norco instead!" (Hint: Look up what the main ingredient in Norco is.)

Thank you, on-call pharmacy. :'))))

Another thing I'm quickly becoming relieved about is patients who are...not jerks, I guess? It feels not great to put it that way because generally being in the hospital is an extremely poor time for anyone, but also, it sucks when a solid 1/3 of my patients are actively ornery to everyone who tries to work with them for whatever reason (altered mental status, depression, being in pain, general anger issues, drug withdrawal). Shoutout to the folks actively working together with me to help them get better.

Anyway, the hospital is very tiring. Surely the emergency department I'm going to next will - nah, I can't even pretend to finish that joke.

YOLO! I am really enjoying how much and how quickly I'm learning! Despite the crazy hours this is definitely a drastic improvement on medical school in terms of actually enjoying the work.
