Today My Life Begins

My first day during practical at Kota Bharu Hospital was quite relaxing... Me and my friends did some round by ourself at the Surgical ward. Most of the patients were suffering from benign prostatic hyperplasia, BPH or 'ulughae' in kelantanese and inguinal hernia. What shocking me enough was an old man, having two hernias direct and indirect. Call me unexperienced, I never seen this kind before. He looked sick, wandering.. looking in one direction. Approaching him, I asked what was his job. Unsprisingly, he did all job in the world. From picking coconuts to catching and holding chickens at his barn. It is one of the risk factor of this disease. Doing heavy-lifting or heavy job for long period could cause your abdominal wall weakens which provoke the protrusion.


Another patient was post-operatively having a back swelling, abscess at the upper back. He suffered from diabetes mellitus and not compliance to medicine led to this complication. How unfortunate. My friend, who was a lecturer started doing his job, lecturing the patient. In 'a good way' of course.

Tomorrow, we will see more patients. What more I expect is that we can do some training to prepare for our coming exam. InsyaAllah... InsyaAllah.. InsyaAllah.. we will find our way.

p/s : BTW, my driving skills quite polished now. Call me fast and furious, pray to keep away from accidents.
