Defeated.... twice in a day....

Feel totally despair today...

Got so many 'amazing' experience in such a short time....

Thanks to my Paedodontics Clinic..... now i am very sure i will not want my own child (at least up till now i think so).... raising a child is just too hard.... and especially when raising a naughty one..... got totally exhausted using all my skills and patience to literally 'fight' with the child patient of mine.....

You cant expect the child to know what's good for them; they only know if the procedures are painful or not.....

They wont realize a short duration of pain in injection of LA solution is going to save a lot of trouble for both the dentist and himself....

The kid has no idea how dangerous to shook his head when needle is in place, neither does he know how sharp the bur is when he try to push that away....

They are also too spoiled to follow the simpliest command....

What on earth can i do??

(Lucky that i do have a small key chain in my locker that could be used to tame this young, little beast....)

Finally gave up the idea of self-diagnosis on my own situation.... i turn to seek for professional advice as the fever keep on and my throat is now so pain that i can barely eat....

This is what i got.

Diagnosis: Tonsillitis (pretty close to my diagnosis, URTI)

Medication: (this is the funny part)














1. Augumentin - 375mg tab, 1 tab, tds, 5/7
2. Mefenamic Acid - 250mg cap, 1 cap, tds, 3/7
3. Eurolase Tablet, 1 tab, tds, 3/7
4. Dextrocilla Syrup, 5ml, tds, 3/7, prn
5. Sudodrine Tablet, 1 tab, tds, 3/7, prn
6. Paracetamol, 1 tab, qds, 3/7, prn

Well.... i hope i'll be sane enough under the influence of these medicine.....

My friend..... please take care and try not to get sick.

PS. Finally have some encouragement from family on my dental studies.... i am able to make a proper diagnosis for my dad's lower molar.... that mean i am not such a bad dentist after all, aint I?
