RedScrubs Weekly Wrap-up 11-14-08
This has been an interesting week. If I didn’t have the amusement of reading some of these great medical blogs, I am sure I would have been totally distracted. After spending copious amounts of time talking to patients about snoring and sleep apnea, I finally got lucky; I got to have my own sleep study done. It appears that not only do I toss and turn all night – I snore like a bear as well. No one told me that I would have to ring a bell every time I had to use the restroom or wanted a drink of water. Of course, I didn’t sleep all night long – I was too busy ringing the buzzer. Then, the electrodes. They were everywhere! When the study ended and the technician removed the electrodes there was absolutely nothing that could be done with my hair – it was totally standing up everywhere. When they graciously offered me a shower, I rushed out of there like I was being chased by the devil. So much for being in the shoes of a patient. And, it takes two weeks for the study results to be back – what’s up with that???
So, back to reality and the winner of the medical blog for the week is. . .
