Genuine question
Is the physical exam dead in human med? I can't imagine so but it never happens?

Due to recent health scare I'm having to make some rather significant changes to my lifestyle surrounding food and exercise, etc.
I'm taking small steps. Might use this platform/acct to yell into the void or hold myself accountable.
#vetmed has done a number on me, but I refuse to let it stop me
I want someone to look at me the way my cat looks at plastic

These little surprise calls from him make me giddy. This man is healing things he doesn't even know about.
Someone at work said they thought I was 25 and idgaf that she was kissing ass, I'm gonna ride that high for a week.
Ok so my back is on the fritz again, it hurts to sit, walk, etc. You know it's bad because the only thing that helps is laying on the floor and I'm doing that without hesitation. At an animal hospital. Who knows what's on this floor but it's worth it for a bit of relief.
I hate the phrase to "yuck someone's yum".
Thank you!
Switching to equine has been everything I hoped it would be. I feel like vet med is still a viable option now.
This ACA is really out here acting like I should just do this procedure that I've never done because "it looks easy, other ppl do it all the time".
Easy to say when it's not your license or your job, maybe sit this one out.
I'm really can't escape the annoying barking dogs at any apartment I live at :(

If a guy I date doesn't flirt with the same energy #Shoresy gives Laura, I don't want it.
I work in a veterinary ER and idk about other ERs but I've never seen so many people call out with food poisoning, and so often, in my life ๐
Dating in your 30s, you can't really take anyone at their word. Someone who is adamant they don't ghost and are excellent communicators will still block you out of the blue.
Arm the teachers with scoops and poop bags
Also I told the job I turned down that I'd love to locum for them and it's been radio silence since I declined...
Oop...
Small but significant life update: I'm now an equine tech, something I've wanted since I graduated tech school in 2011 ๐
My toxic trait is my real laugh sounds like a mix between Velma after a few packs and a particularly old goat.
It only took 14 years but I finally made it onto the equine side of vet med and I can't wait to get started
A parrot singing "bacon pancakes" is singlehandedly carrying my mental health right now and I'm not unaware of the implications
I think I've hit my quota for life-changing news today, please and thank you. If you have something important to tell me please wait 3.5 business days, I need a sec.
Is it a full moon or something cuz this overnight shift has been ๐
Had a couple really sad and intense cases last night. The reason I know that switching hospitals was a net positive move was the fact that multiple people checked in with me to be sure I was doing alright.
I was fine, but you don't find crews like that everywhere and I appreciate them

You know you play a lot of Overwatch when you play PUBG to relax.
Did I give my patient enough Catit paste to feed 10 cats? Yes.
Did that mean he was completely oblivious to his blood draw? Also yes.
I'ma call that a W.

There's no way I found a smutty novel with a vet tech main character. There just isn't.

It's time for my biannual (heh) Bumble date. I hate it here.
I'm babysitting a frenchie and it was going swimmingly until he decided to use my head as a pillow and snore directly into my ear while I'm trying to sleep.
First lily cat of the season... :(
Please, if you have cats, don't keep lilies. Even one lick can be a death sentence.
Open bar staff party was last night (I was in bed by the time they served dinner).
Will update with the number of people calling in sick today ๐
