I hate them, hate them, hate them, hate them, hate them, hate them.
They represent the worst thing about OB.

Bad day
Lets see..
A patient altered a script for post-op pain meds from a quantity of 30 to 80. Pharmacy called me and verified what I wrote. We use carbon copy scripts, so I have a copy of what I wrote in the chart. The police are now involved. She getting dismissed from my practice.
One NP in the office is pissed at me because I snapped at her when she walked into a room when I had the door shut and I was talking privately to my boss.
Another fetal demise.
My stupid knee hurts because I slipped on the ice. No, I am not going to tell ortho.

Good day
All patients today in the OR were thin and insured. My iPod was playing ABBA. All had real pathology that hopefully surgery will cure. Got out a 10 cm myoma through a 6 cm mini-lap incision. My longest case took 45 minutes.
And the PITA patient who (finally) was REALLY in labor last night, who had a quick and easy vag delivery told me this morning "That was easier than my first delivery when I was induced!"
And I'm now off call. Beer is opened. ;)

I am evil
So last week, 3 nurses at our clinic announced they were pregnant. All due at about the same time, which will make scheduling interesting this summer. Our office manager doesn't want to hear about pregnancy right now...
which is why I walked into her office today to tell her I was pregnant. She swatted me!
Evil laugh.

Kids say the damnedest things
At Oh-too-damn-early-in-the-morning the other day:
Poke. Poke. Poke.
One eye opens to see the boy. I grunt at him.
"My penis is stupid."
Both eyes open at this. "Huh?"
"My penis is stupid."
"Why?"
"It's sticking up and I don't want it to."
"Talk to your father."

Quote of the day
From my favorite anesthesiologist, who was in my room today. We were talking about med staff last night, and I mentioned that I lucked out and got called out.
"Yeah, I go to my 50% yearly."
"Me too" I replied. "Too many whiny doctors to deal with there."
"Most of them need to be on meds."
Couldn't disagree.
