OBGYN------>done, Bostatist---->done. Today Surgery (I like it) & general Pediatrics.. LDL values didn't change For Pts with 2 risk factor or a cardiac problem: LDL< 100 but treatment starts when above 130, with a target of 100.. Pt with 1 risk factor: LDL <160--> If < 180--> diet ristriction only / if >180---> Drugs screening is total & HDL cholesterol. Treatment primarily depends on LDL (if not high, don't treat HDL) hope thet help

Let me put it this way, I used to like surgery & think I know it well (88% on UW from 1st time), but not anymore, I forgot A LOT of things, will finish it today what ever it takes, even if i don't sleep. I'm a coffee addict anyway so i guess more coffee today How about u Bro, how is it goin.. Oh i think u might know my friends family as his mother is very famous, esp in medicine, She was the minister of Medicine in Andrah Paradesh (hope i wrote it right), her name is Sanakalya Aruna Shankar!!

Oops, sorry about that bro thing..nyway, good for u, keep it up & lets make a deal, no sad faces from both of us, will keep up with enthusiasm & cheerfullness however nasty & harsh it will be. Today i overlooked surgery in the morning, now will solve all ped qs, then go over general pediatrics, then if im still alive, will do opthalmology & ENT (to be honest im just trying to fit them anywhere as i mostly don have time for them) 7 more days of studying, then the exam on the 8th day ISA we will do great..GL

What a day... Today first I ran over surgery notes, then I solved my wrong Ped Qs, then I solved all Ped again on UW, my head is pounding with anger & exhaution, time to start reading..But i'm happy i was able to finish all qs, as i don't have time for ped qs tom If u would post qs, i would be glad to try & answer them, & discuss them with u.. Will keep on fighting, ISA victory will be on my side.. Who dares wins....& I DARE
