Would you like some cheese with that WHINE?

So my last post was during a very frustrating game of phone ping-pong with the Oregon Medical Board and the United States Postal Service. End result was that my "missing" registration form that I mailed in was finally found...and thank goodness, because I was about to drive up to Portland and look for the damn piece of mail myself!

On a happier note, I really like my job so far. I finally saw some patients "on my own" today (rotation style: I went in first followed by the regular PA). She said she agreed with all my findings and diagnoses, and seemed impressed that I could actually see most TM's clearly despite squirmy kiddos with lots of ear wax. I didn't realize how much I missed seeing patients!! I had a blast talking to the parents and making funny faces at the kids. I still have a lot of medicine to learn, and some forgotten medicine to remember, but the love is still there, and that is the most important thing.

On a less happy note, I get heartburn now....way too often. Thinking of starting myself on a daily OTC H2 blocker or PPI. What a bother.

Random.
