I W T--how did your test go?

I don't take it until Tuesday! But thanks for asking : )

And to hijack this thread... did anyone else not know about this?? Some doctors are using leeches again?? Good Lord Almighty!

Another hijack.... The meet and greet was great!!! I met the head of the legal department at the LGBT Center and they are expanding and she wants to meet with me regarding a potential position!!!! The film was ok, didn't really make sense until 2/3 into it, but a nice theatre and other opportunities to volunteer for the film festival. A good way to meet and network for someone like me. It was a real lift for me today. That's all.

I used leeches twice in residency, trying to get a skin flap to work. They were weird and oozy and all the nurses peeked in the room to take a look at them. They have two mouths, who knew?

I saw a program that uses medical quality maggots for wound care. Yikes!!!!

i seen that on tv those maggets get rid of all the dead cells and bacteria while creating healthy skin.

there was the neatest thing about cotton candy for wounds as well- amazing things these days-

I did not look at your link but they have been used in micro vascular surgery for years to increase bloodflow to area and therefore speed healing.

I'd heard rumors about this, but didn't know it was true. Seems quite wonderful and archaic all at once!

Okay, yeah. This thread got gross fast.

Sorry... didn't mean to gross you out.
