Unbelivable Treatment!

Is there any physicians out there who can explain this, please feel free to post comment.

A patient comes in with complaint of common cold/sore throat, then you performed a physical as well as interview/ROS and diagnosed with laryngitis and tonsillitis. Then you prescribe GENERAL antibiotic and ORDER a CBC lab work.

Please explain the part of CBC(lab work)? Precautionary or MONEY-SUCKER? I just can't understand what kind of doctor does that by prescribing GENERAL ANTIBIOTIC and lab work at the same time? If there is a good logical reason behind this, please teach me, I am willing to listen and learn.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry

Sorry for missing to post for a few days already. We are learning about the Vitamin/Micronutrient. Lecture would've been better if taught by different professor :(... Well either way... make sure you take your daily supplement every day so to avoid some unnecessary nasty deficiency complications.

Neuroscience seems to be quite interesting as it is getting more complicated. I tell you... STAR WAR was based on Neuroscience!!! L@@K at the cross section of the rostral medulla, it looks like a butterfly... then caudal pon... DARK VATER(I don't know if I spell that one right or not.)! Then a moth... then UFO ... Neuroscience to me seems more and more extraterrestrial to me. Maybe that is why it is interesting!

OMG... I hate childish people

Why do people act like they all grow up outside, yet inside them SO DAMN CHILDISH? I just can't stand those types. If you got something to say, say it to the face and KEEP IT to the fact and truth, DON'T exaggerate and add stuffs to the TRUTH! On top of that... stop being childish and start taking off from friend list from facebook or block in g-talk or msn or what not. That is just too childish and definitely won't solve the problem. I just won't name who here because this is in public eyes, but you know who you are! So if you got something to say, then GET SOME BALLZ and say it in my face without dragging others into this matter! Or maybe you just DON'T HAVE BALLZ afterall.

3rd day

Interesting day... Biochemistry, Anatomy and Histology today with Dissection! Taking the brain was fun. Used the saw and opening the calvaria, I don't even know if I spelled it right. Either way you know what I am talking about. Holding that amazing thing in my hand was awesome feeling. Learned about steroid and thyroid hormone production/metabolism in BC. Adrenal gland for the Histo. Anatomy..... I don't even know what is going on in that class :S sad but true!

On top of all that, being a secretary to the school anime club, I have to be there at the table in the club fair today at 4:30 until 6:30 PM. Fun meeting new people and all. Wish they provide some kind of foods for us, but school is too cheap... All they ever think was how to squeeze our stones for more money.

I will keep posted daily. If I couldn't do so, please be patient because I maybe very BZ!

2nd Day the 12th

Sorry for posting it late as I was getting used to the daily review and adjusting my study schedule again as having 1 more class than previous semester.

Learned about Neuronal tracts and Neuroscience yesterday. Also went to learn histology of endocrine system, namely the Hypothalamus, Hypophysis(Pituitary), Thyroid & Parathyroid. Amount seems to be overwhelming, but they aren't boring stuffs so it's ok.

Will get back to you about today later on today.

1st day of 2nd Semester

Here I come... my first day of classes for 2nd Semester. 1 down and 3 more to go! Today we started out with Neuroscience, sounds interesting, but she just flew by ... maybe because it is intro class. After the neuro, smack in the face with Anatomy of the SKULL! Fun, Fun!!!

I will get back to you guys after classes!

MOVIES!

Saw the AVATAR! It is awesome! I thought I became one myself at the end of the movie! 5 stars from me!

Another good one I saw over this weekend is UP IN THE AIR, and I wonder even more what life is all about. Great movie! Recommended!

Enjoy guys!
