Holiday Update

Well, I hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a happy new year!

I got a ton of books for Christmas including "The Making of a Surgeon in the 21st Century," "Bedside Manners," and "Principles of Anatomy and Physiology." They're really great books, thanks Mom and Dad! And yes, I'm well aware that books are supposed to be underlined but oh well.

In other news I transported a patient with suspected meningitis at the rescue squad. I so called that one, the rest of the crew thought I was just being paranoid until the physician confirmed my suspicions. The guy had a fever of 101.7, generalized headache, his neck was sore and he couldn't touch his chin to his chest. He was also photophobic, classic signs of meningitis. I'm still sterilizing everything I own. I really hope those N-95 respirators work.

I also just created a new forum at http://medicus.z42.us/index.php
Check it out, I hope you like it. I'd like some input on it and hopefully you'll become a user. It's meant for discussing medical topics and all aspects of patient care.

I was also thinking about creating another forum that's more of an RPG (role playing game for you non-techies) where you follow different patients around and make decisions on their care. Let me know what you think about this too and if you'd be interested.

I'm out, I'll post some more later, stay safe,
Bravomedic.
