Why I chose internal medicine...

I had a call so good, so hard last night it just makes me giddy. Also makes me want to go back to the hospital to check on my ICU admissions. Bacterial meningitis (worst case the ID doc has ever seen), Bad Pancreatitis, and Bleeding Man at the top of the liver transplant list (who deserves that liver). My Amazing Lymphoma Lady came back too, for a second round of chemo. She won't be neutropenic for at least a week I hope... so time to tend to some really sick people. I learned a lot. I did a lot. And it makes me look forward to going in tomorrow- pretty darn early. Maybe I am an adrenaline junkie.
