long time no update!

I realized I haven't updated my blog since very early in my Oral Surgery block, and I'm already halfway through it! Life has been busy lately, as cliche as that sounds. I've started an IV in oral surgery, and I'm scheduled for another on Friday. It's good to know how to do it, but I don't think I'll be doing IV sedation out in practice - it's a really big liability, and I think the cases that require that much sedation are better referred! But, it's fun to do it now in school.
I felt like a big dope at school today though, because I couldn't find the right codes to put into the computer today for some of the patient appointments, and then I accidently put in the wrong code for a patient today and I had to have the faculty approve the change... Ugh... The computer can be really annoying. I feel like I'm doing okay clinically, but there is always so much paperwork - even more than when we are in practice because there are eval's we have to have people fill out, and it's easy to forget to have the instructors fill them out. My mind is elsewhere lately... :)
Anyways, hope everything is going well with all of you!
