I used the herbal treatment for almost 4 months, it reversed my COPD. My severe shortness of breath, dry cough, chest tightness gradually disappeared. Reach Ultimate Health Home via their website www.ultimatelifeclinic.com I can breath much better and It feels comfortable!<br /><br />Florencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03247616144267009897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319382295659590674.post-2412651197693674602012-05-30T21:58:31.079+01:002012-05-30T21:58:31.079+01:00Hey, I missed this somehow, apolagies!

Therefore, I couldn't see just how the paramedics stuck it into the oxygen tank. Some accoutrement needed? <br /><br />Next time I see someone wearing one, I'll take a close look. Even stop them to examine it.<br /><br />Because...the tube is small. With a mask...okay, I'd better stop here. I'll continue with an email.<br /><br />I can do sutures! That's on my blog. However, not for the stomach of the weak! That sounds like I've just made a column in a Gastro Magazine or something. I love playing with words. Suture business also in the email.<br /><br />Yes, I was watching M*A*S*H one night and thought it was perfect. That's going on my blog!<br /><br />Talk soon,<br />PAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319382295659590674.post-415380017686543472012-04-10T12:02:36.190+01:002012-04-10T12:02:36.190+01:00(also you have a quote from Hawkeye Pierce on your...(also you have a quote from Hawkeye Pierce on your blog - that alone made me want to follow you ;D)Half a dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860611237759342307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319382295659590674.post-22897784338092390332012-04-10T12:01:10.302+01:002012-04-10T12:01:10.302+01:00You are more than welcome for the blogroll, I can&...You are more than welcome for the blogroll, I can't remember how I found your blog (one of those random procrastinating sessions of just following link after link I guess!) but I really enjoyed it :). Thanks for the blogroll-ing return :D <br /><br />Haha yeah tag teaming sounds like a great plan - you cannualate , I'll decide what to put in through the cannula ;). A problem halved and all that! (its quite amusing reading back through this post of mine and realising that in the two years since I wrote it I've only actually successfully done one cannuala :/ oh well final year next year apparently then you get the opportunity to do hundreds, fingers crossed, if not I'll be getting on my mobile to you ;D)<br /><br />Thanks for commenting!<br />HalfadocHalf a dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860611237759342307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319382295659590674.post-70426712278307688412012-04-04T21:30:22.226+01:002012-04-04T21:30:22.226+01:00First, thank you so much for the blogroll. I am e...First, thank you so much for the blogroll. I am extremely honoured. I miss the med blogosphere SO much (as I keep repeating on my blog.) <br /><br />Thus, you are a GREAT find! Well, not just for that, but I love you already! Ace sense of humour. This was killing me. So, blogroll reciprocity back from Dr. PA!<br /><br />Speaking of, in reading about your difficulties, try not to be too scared. Dr. PA still hasn't gotten the hang of a blood pressure cuff! Oh, you rotten screw on the bulb. Slippery, tricky devil! You are EVIL! <br /><br />I can do an auscultation, though! I just don't know what I'm necessarily listening to and/or why I should be listening to it. You know. What it might mean, right? <br /><br />I think I could probably figure out what I should listen for if someone came to me hacking up all sorts of sputum, green or yellow or both. Hey! Even different colours! <br /><br />Dr. PA to Patient: Your chest is all bubbly and gurgly. You may need antibiotics for a bacterial infection, or have something called a pneumothorax. If it's the latter, I have to cut you and put a tube somewhere near your lung.<br /><br />I'm not sure though, so let me check with Half a doc. She'll probably know. Oh, crap! Her mobile's busy. Well, you just lie down and relax. You'll be fine, I promise. Meanwhile, they're still serving breakfast, so let me get you a tray.<br /><br />So what do you think? We can tag team? Help each other out? Two halves make a hole! Oops, I meant "whole."<br /><br />Take care,<br />Dr. PApatientanonymoushttp://patientanonymous.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319382295659590674.post-24288517937164974192010-03-22T22:42:25.511+00:002010-03-22T22:42:25.511+00:00Hi there, thanks for your comment, its great to ge...Hi there, thanks for your comment, its great to get some feedback :).<br /><br />In terms of your questions I will answer what I can - Im afraid I can't tell you what medical school I am at because I would rather keep that unknown to help ensure patient confidentiality - if I say the hospitals area then people might think I am writing about them even if Im actually not.<br /><br />UKCAT wise I got a very average score but luckily for me it was the first year ukcat was used - quite a few medical school now have cut off points so if you do decide to apply for medicine then check these out, my score probably wouldn't have been high enough for the cut off points some uni have since implemented so I would have had to avoid some.<br /><br />A level wise I got 4 A's but I do know people who simply met the grade requirement and they do just as well academically at medical school.<br />For me I had two interwiews, one of which I got an offer from and one of which rejected me. Both interviews were friendly and very personal statement based but it really varies depending on the uni. Other unis ask much more academic questions.<br /><br />Hope that helps a bit, if you haven't done any work experience yet then maybe that will help you make up your mind :).Half a dochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860611237759342307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319382295659590674.post-48625178406122044212010-03-19T17:54:45.834+00:002010-03-19T17:54:45.834+00:00hey u shuldn't feel dat u dun knw anithing.......hey u shuldn't feel dat u dun knw anithing....i want 2 do medicine n i didnt knw any of wat u were saying n i learned a bit frm u so dun b down u knw a lot n r stilll in uni so u can learn more....jus stay motivated n thing of actually achieving wat u wanted! i want 2 b a doctor 2 but dun like seious work such dat can cause death so i might stay in a safe profession....am still thinking abt dat...i'll keep reading ur blog n hopefully will learn more abt uniexperiance!<br />can u jus tell me which uni u go 2 n hw hard it was 2 get entered, wat u gt 4 A levls, hw da UKCAT went and hw u did da interview....a lot 2 ask but it would b alot of help<br />thankzJiya khannoreply@blogger.com
