As a first year med student you don't learn all that much clinical information. What little clinical information you do learn is usually only given to you to illustrate some basic anatomical/physiological/histological/biochemical/microbiological concept...EXCEPT in the final I have tomorrow. I usually can't diagnose anyone with anything other than the common cold or muscular problems with any sort certainty, however if you suspect you have any of the following ailments, I'm your diagnotician!! WOOP WOOP!!
- Complement deficiency
- Arnold Chiari malformation
- SCID
- Horner's syndrome
- Clostridium botulinum infection
- Incontinence
- Necrotizing fasciitis (DO NOT GOOGLE THIS...unless you have a strong stomach)
- Brain hemorrhages
- Measles
- Strabismus
- Meningitis
- GERD
- Herpes
- Gallstones
- Bacterial respiratory infection
- Infective endocarditis
- Thyroid disease
- Viral respiratory infection
- Helicobacter pylori infection
- Sheehan syndrome
So basically we're looking a some basic stuff....and of course a few zebra cases. If you suspect any of the aforementioned diseases....HOLLA ATCHA GIRL! And I'll refer you to a specialist. =)
