I just had a port-a-cath placement performed on Friday July 12. I had heavy sedation for the procedure but woke up briefly during the "tunnel" part due to severe pain in my shoulder/neck area. 😢 I startled the Doctor when I did wake up and said, "OUCH!! That really hurts!!" The doctor apologized to me by saying, "Ooh, sorry. Sorry". That's the last thing I remember. The MAC anesthesia kicked back in about 10 to 15 seconds later. Five days later I'm still very achy in my neck/shoulder. See chemotherapy doctor on Monday July 22nd. Diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer on June 21st. Hysterectomy performed in April 2012, ovaries left in for menopause. Fallopian tubes still remain. Only uterus and cervix were taken. Seeing doctor at Sarah Cannon Cancer Institute at Research Medical Center in KCMO.
Except some practices also see the game for what it is and will do anything possible to screw over new associates with zero remorse, they’re never gonna meet you up top 😬
my daughter tore her ACL fully a month ago and scheduled for ACL surgery in a couple of weeks. Lately her injured knee has been improved tremendously, is this normal? This surprising progress is making me having doubt if the first MRI result is accurate or if she needs to do another MRI to see if her ACL is completely torn or just partial and healing?
Hey Unfor I cannot provide advice over the internet. Your questions are valid. Need to contact a physician you trust and ask these questions. The care should be patient + physician directed, meaning you are in control. Go with your gut and find a physician advocate to go to work for you
The truth shall set us free---well maybe not because the suits run medicine and MD's are pawns. The worst thing done was MD's separating the business from pt care and letting others handle the numbers. MD's are getting jerked around in the current environment and it will only get worse.
Retrospectively do you think that an MSK, nuclear or breast fellowship would have been better for you than IR. Also is private practice DR is better than IR money wise? Thank you, i m a big fan.
Hey. No i think IR was the right choice. Gives me that surgical feel I need. I do think DR make more than IR. Need to follow the wRVUs. However, if owner of an OBL doing high level IR, could make sig more than a DR partner
Thanks doctor for your enlightening videos .Actually I have a question about teleradiology : can an img radiologists work in teleradiology service group and are there any requirements?
I'm sure it hasn't changed that much since I was a resident, 03-07. First year study your *ss off. Seriously. I pretty much read 1-3 hours every night after work. Yes, you heard that right. We took call six months in. Personally think that's a big loss for new residents. You need to put your feet in the fire asap, and that fear made me study much, much harder. "I can't miss an ectopic. I can't miss a PE. etc" It's like an investment, learn as much that first year before you're taking call. Read all the recommended high yield books over, and over, and over again. I kept reading after first year, but I found I had such a base that things 'compounded' quickly after that. Last advice...don't pigeonhole yourself. 'i don't do procedures'. 'i don't do mammo' etc etc. The more you learn, the more useful and marketable you will be in the real world. Have a can do attitude. I didn't like the needle. I got over it with a lot of practice. Was residency a little scary at times? Yes. Was it a lot of fun? Definitely. It's still fun for me 20 years later. Cheers.
