72, i think i’ve discovered what it was. i’ve been studying my medical books for so long, that now that i’ve passed my boards, my brain is not sure what to do with itself. its like ‘what? no kidney failure/cardiac arrest/patient is labor’ yadayada to worry about??? this is an example of what i’ve been doing the past few months: you come in on the floor in the morning, and have 5 patients. one is one day post op gallbladder removal surgery and is calling for pain meds, one came in with asthma exacerbation and is complaining of difficulty breathing, one had a stroke 3 days ago and cannot use the call bell for help, one came in with alcohol toxicity and is having a change in mental status, and one came in for a UTI and thinks he has a fever. who do i go to see first??? aaaaaahhh this stuff is coming outta my brains already
