All I Have...

I'm exhausted. ER, class, OR, class, ER...no sleep. Naps in the car if I get to a shift early.

Nothing holds much interest or sparks much anymore - on the way home from class, excited to get 5 hours of sleep tonight, I ran into a ton of traffic. I merely thought "what an interesting curio" and half closed my eyes.

Getting much better at IV sticks. Pt in septic shock today; I wish I knew if he made it. He was very unstable when I left ER clinical this afternoon with a pretty low MAP and compromised circulatory system. Maybe I will ask when I go back to that ER.

Other than that, routine things. Kidney stones, chest pain, sports injuries, abdominal complaints...it all runs together.

I need sleep now.
