The other one I'll be looking for is also by a lady practicing medicine, but if the blogs are any indication of content, the two will be completely different and equally interesting. I always did like the comics; even though I couldn't hack getting to med school I found them at times utterly hilarious.medrecgalhttp://ifitaintbrokedontfixit.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779260.post-12236840140282038462010-01-18T20:04:59.115-05:002010-01-18T20:04:59.115-05:00"I don't want a NURSE to sew me up."..."I don't want a NURSE to sew me up." <br />"No worries, sir, I'm a doctor!"

I'd imagine the book is going to press soon and might be too late to add pages.<br /><br />Last time I had to deal with editors, they made my life infinitely joyful while writing a booklet on heparin induced thrombocytopenia. The multiple editors in legal, marketing and medical depts. each made their own revisions while never talking to one another.<br /><br />I'm not in clinical healthcare but I can relate to that feeling, ha.
