http://lateatseven.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 23, 2007. Doctor Shopping: How Good Is It? At the time of writing this post, Malaysia is having a Year End Sale. It's near Christmas holiday and now is school holiday. Every shops in town is throwing crazy deals to attract customers. I had to admit, Malaysians love shopping! This is what usually happens in Malaysia and I have to emphasis that it is not right! Back to the baby, she had developed pneumonia. Since she is partially treated with antibiotic, so we have to hit with a strong...

Late at Seven: July 2008
http://lateatseven.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 5, 2008. Between Tiger Meat and Inhaler. While I was doing my morning ward work one day, I overheard a visitor talking to the patient's mother:. I think tiger meat is good for asthma. That what I heard from my friend.". But tiger meat is hard to get. You have to look hard for it, and I heard it is pricey too.". Otherwise, my grandparents used to serve me crocodile meat when I had asthmatic during childhood. It does cure my asthma. Until now, I never had any attack.". I am not sure. General...

Late at Seven: DA Blues
http://lateatseven.blogspot.com/2008/02/da-blues.html
Sunday, February 3, 2008. Developmental assessment (DA) has always been a crucial part of learning in paediatrics. You will never be complete in paediatrics if you do not know about DA. It is single most frequent task to be asked during our short case examination. Even a post-graduate student can fail their final clinical exam when they fail this DA. At 3, he was drawing a man already! The man need to pee! At this point of time, he is able to speak 2 languages fluently, which is mandarin and malay, thank...

Late at Seven: Neglected Child
http://lateatseven.blogspot.com/2008/01/neglected-child.html
Saturday, January 19, 2008. Last week I just came back from a district hospital in Perak. Nothing great about this hospital, just a small facilities to serve the local population. Doesn't even have a CT scan machine. I was posted to paediatrics in that hospital for a week. The patient populations mainly from the lower socio-economic status. Mostly are children of estate workers, lorry drivers and fishermans. However, there was one little girl that caught my attention. Father had accident a year ago, left...

Late at Seven: March 2008
http://lateatseven.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 18, 2008. OCD: When Heart and Mind are not Functioning as One. Have you ever have a feeling that you need to go and check the car, strong urge that it wasn't lock, only to find out later that it already was? What about waking up in the middle of the night, fearing that you didn't shut the gas stove properly, and the thoughts keep on haunting you until you need to go and check it? What about having all this symptoms, but en core. Over and over again, say, 10 times until you exhaust yourself?

Late at Seven: Doctor, how is my daughter?
http://lateatseven.blogspot.com/2008/07/doctor-how-is-my-daughter.html
Wednesday, July 2, 2008. Doctor, how is my daughter? Doctor, how is my father/mother/brother/son/daughter/neighbour's uncle's friends? This is the single most asked question I faced during ward rounds and especially visiting hours in the ward. And the most irritating one as well. Why would doctors generally do so? We are generally overworked and underpaid. On top of that, the ministry had slashed 50% of my Cost-of-Living Allowance (RM 100) and 100% of my Housing Allowance (RM 250)for a shared triple ...
