just to prove a point michal. My grandmother is suffering a whole heep of rather servier symptoms at the moment. Now as i said im STUDYING paramedics (in SA while my grandmother is in vic) and my sister is just about finished her physio degreee. We both independently gave exactly the same diognosis as the GP (to much cordisol and adrenilin in her body) The only difference was my sister unlike the doctor and I picked WHERE the pain was coming from. The GP had no idea and i hadnt seen my grandmother to asses her (but in that i would have taken my sisters opinion higher than my own anyway).
Another example. One of the GP's at the surgury I go to is an ex aviation doctor. I went in to see him, so that he could sign off on a B12 injection (had to see him before the nurse could give me the shoot). I had a minor alergic reaction to the drug which even though i had just had a full set of blood tests AND recently had a tetnes shot with no reaction he put down to anxiaty over the shot. I came back the next week for the next shot and was chatting away to the GP (different one this time, indian actually) who said if that happened to you last time you better not have this one because you would probably go into aniphlactic shock. The first idiot didnt even think you could be ALERGIC to the B12 shots (i read the leaflet after that and reaslied you most definitly CAN be alergic to them)
This may seem like a really stupid question but what IS USYD?
