This is the second time in almost a week that I've been woken up at stupid o'clock in the morning for on-call reasons. Until last week, I've only been called ONCE, and that was on a Sunday (a SUNDAY, LIE-IN day). I got called last tuesday about the minimum volume for amiodarone, and about 15 minutes ago about a calcium resonium retention enema for a lady with dementia and a potassium of 7.1 (AFTER 24h of bicarbonate, insulin etc...)
Doctor: "Box says use 2% methylcellulose '450'. wtf?" Me: "IT'S 5 AM WHY ARE YOU ASKIMG ME THISSZZZZzzzz") And it was the SAME DOCTOR as last week. (I think. And I think he was the one woke me up at midnight the other night as well.) Luckily Manufacturing had put some in the OOH cupboard, so this poor lady could have her treatment.

*arglebargle* I'm gonna go back to bed.

Hey at least you're _getting_ some sleep! I feel like I've done nothing but study for lab exams and finish assignments for the past two weeks. ;p

I got my Entomology lab exam over and done with a few hours ago, now I just have my Forest Pathology lab exam tomorrow and my Fire Ecology test the day after. And we're not even into finals yet! *is ded from stress*

Been there, done that! Exams are, like, the evilest of inventions EVAR.

I know I'm too late to wish you luck, but I hope they went all right. :\

Thanks! <3

They went pretty well, I think, although I'm not sure about the Entomology exam. You can only look at so many bark-beetles and their galleries before they all start to look the same, the little buggers. <_<

:/ Shouldn't the doctor be the one that figures those things out.

Unfortunately, that's why we have pharmacists. :P
