ICU NIGHT SHIFT: Day in the Life of a DOCTOR (ft. liver failure)

[@osamabatsh2984]

Can't wait to hear you say " a rheumatologist physician " in the near future

Me too!! I can't believe how soon that will be!!

Can someone explain how soon? 🥳

[@Nan-59]

YES!!!! I have a rheumatologist! They are so very important for people like me!!

[@Mark-fo6ij]

Monika S If I’m not mistaken, internal medicine is 3 years and then rheumatology is 2-3 years (depending on the program), 5-6 total. So I assume she’s got 1 or 2 years left if she’s a 4th year right now.

My grandma dealt with liver failure for the past 4 years and eventually passed in October of 2020. She had multiple procedures and a TIPS as well. It was nice to see the other side of it and reminded me of everything she went through

Hi Sandi, I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. It sounds like she went through a lot and I'm glad that you were able to have some extra time with you because of the procedures. Sending my best to you and your family!

I wish there was a dr like you when my mom was in the icu with septic shock. The one we had was good medically wise, but had zero bedside manner, and one of the first nurses was so rude. My cousin was an icu nurse in a different state at the time and he called me that night to check in. I was in tears because of that nurse and Dr. The treatment towards us, and the refusal to answer our questions was insane. We had put him on the list to get info on my mom so he ended up speaking to the head nurse, and an administrator about the nurse. My mom's general surgeon who worked with a completely different hospital would call in nightly, and then call me. She actually also reported the nurse. She spoke to the Dr we didn't like due to her coldness and agreed that Dr needed some bedside manners since she was in the icu. Between my mom's general surgeon and my cousin we didn't have to ask questions, they knew what to ask, what needed to be done and ect and then would call me at night and relay everything.

[@tpaxatb]

Portal hypertension is no joke. Had bleeding varices that almost killed me (BP 65 and uncontrolled internal bleeding)...and ascites of 7-8 liters drained each week. Spent 9 days just in the ICU. Once I was stable enough had a TIPS procedure and even though it took three or four months to really take hold, my last EGD showed only a couple minor small varices. And only a liter or so of ascites too small to really drain. Credit to the ICU docs but especially the ICU nurses for taking such good care of me.

As someone who is post transplant liver failure is something that scares me every day!!! But at the same time I am so grateful for my Donors and their families as I have unfortunately have had to have 2 transplants now, the last being in January. (I was born with a rare liver and kidney disease called hyperoxalouria causing me to need my first transplant in 2015) unfortunately over the 6 years i had many complications mainly a blood clot in the main hepatic artery to my liver causing causing me to need my second transplant. This transplant is going really well along with my recovery 🙂

Thank you so much for taking us with you - I almost feel like I met these patients myself. You have a gift of explaining situations and procedures so an everyday person gets an idea of what's going on. I bet you're an awesome teacher to your med students. Question (I'm Swiss, so apologies if that's a dumb one): does every Canadian have health insurance? I was wondering who paid for the drug user's expensive tests and treatment.

[@ViolinMD]

Great question Tamara - Canadian health care covers all expenses in the hospital including procedures, medications, physician fees. Outside the hospital, visits to the doctor and (most) procedures are covered, but not all medications... that can be a challenge

[@juliejanssen7637]

@Lateisha M Unlike the USA, where I just paid my husband's hospital bill off! He died 1/20.

[@foxcrow]

@Lateisha M I am from Canada, and yes you’re right. Everyone has the right to health care in a hospital, but you need insurance for medications (or things like insulin) and some specialist (physio, chiropractor, massage) or non-emergency procedures (e.g. cosmetic surgery).

[@rdizzy1]

@@foxcrow Not just the right, but it covers the cost as well. Here in the US, they have to treat you in the emergency room even if you have no insurance, but you can/will become bankrupt afterwards, so for most people, that still isn't an option. Have to choose between dying or bankrupting yourself. (And possibly even your family left behind)
