MEDICAL HISTORY.......AND LMP........


Its well written and said that “EXPERIENCES TEACH A LOT MORE THAN READING ALONE”……..


Well I haven’t enough experiences of examining patients , but with the experiences I have the most important thing I have learnt in diagnosing and treating a female patient is asking about her LMP(Last Menstrual Period) in history taking.,,,,,,,.BECAUSE.....    
        

   

A)most of the symptoms she may be explaining  may be due to by pregnancy


                                 B)medicines need to taken cautiously in case of pregnancy and the medicines (given thinking she is non-pregnant) may be hazardous to the developing fetus…......So whenever a female patient mainly of reproductive age comes with complaints to you, never forget to ask her LMP………………Thank you………………

A great feeling of relief...

Finally the wait ended. It was at about 3 pm today that I saw the results published--the result was in the form of a pdf file. My hands were trembling (fearing in mind the day of 2nd Aug 2010) on downloading and opening the pdf file and scrolling the pages of the document. Finally I saw my number---14018 and finally a great feeling of relief rushed through me......yah it was a great relief for
