There is no chance, no destiny, no fate that can hinder the firm resolve of a determined soul.

@Old_Jake @emmakelechi @06coma08 @obiageliakuuu @Euphoric_Levi Lol

@emmakelechi @06coma08 @obiageliakuuu @Euphoric_Levi Amlodipina, in Portuguese. Hardly worth a 10 mmHg increase in systolic to rant about it...

Surgeons 🤝 calling the medical team on call for a patient with blood pressure of 180/120mmhg, after placing on tabs Amlodipine 5mg. As though they did not go to medical school with the rest of us

@the_drterry @king_pearxe I hope you referred him because he is walking bomb.

@king_pearxe I had a patient like this on Tuesday. His BP was 240/150mmHg. I wanted to keep him for observation and BP control. He SAMA and his excuse was that he was anxious and did not sleep the previous day because there was no light so everywhere was hot.

A patient walked into the emergency unit with a BP of 200/120 Me; Sir, your bp is extremely high, we have to admit you and gradually reduce it. Pt: Ohh, Dr, it's high because I took hot pepper soup before coming here Me; sir, hot pepper soup will not cause your bp to be this high Pt ; Dr, the pepper soup was really hot Ohh Me;

@halo_chasee @EnyitheDev Na your papa money nah.

one time i was dead broke, and indebted too,, my friends bitcoin wallet was on my phone, (he had given me his passphrase a long while back to check something and had forgotten), i kept sawing deposit notifications from his wallet on my phone, I'm talking 3k$, 20k$, 80k$,100k$+ ..

@VictorACharis @Iyeobaje @dr_afo Less than $250.

@Iyeobaje @dr_afo Nigeria 🇳🇬 less than $500

Do you know how bad it is that Nigerian doctors are now considering Japa to country like Ghana, Botswana and Uganda? Do you know how desperate you have to be to consider those countries? And yes those countries all pay better than Nigeria and they don't want us.

@dr_afo @Physco_dollars And he has a wife and children. No life outside read, eat, hospital.

@Physco_dollars SR?

I recently contacted a Neurosurgeon SR in training. I told her about my interest. She asked me two weird questions, if I was married and from a rich family. I was initially confused, then she explained that Neurosurgery will take away my entire waking moment for the entirely of training. You'd barely have time to sleep and read in the midst of work. She says she can't remember the time she went home or saw her kids. She told me to have a long talk with my wife before embarking on it in the future, as a lot of people enter only to quit halfway. For all my Neurosurgery enthusiast, I just say make I update Una.

@GayleZoie Sorry.

Yesterday, I over worked myself in a vulnerable state. I saw the signs but I ignored it. Still dealing with a crisis. Take your bodies seriously.

I’m a wife, mother, daughter, sister, professor, business owner & I own some shares in different companies. I work, go home, cook, take care of our kids, I meet Hubstar’s sexual needs & help pay our kids’ car insurance & health insurance. Married 20 years PLUS!

NAIJA HOSPITAL SHEGE CHRONICLES Ep 05 Being a registrar for surgery residency in a Naija teaching hospital na like you don enter long-term relationship with stress with no break-up option. You don already survive house job, pass primaries by fire by force, and now dem don post you to your dream department, Surgery! You resume 8am sharp and by 10:15 you don already: ☑️Seen your colleague disgraced in morning review ☑️ Received 5 consults from the accident and emergency. ☑️ Reviewed 14 ward patients (including the one wey dem say “just small head injury” but was subdural hematoma) ☑️ Been called “oga reg” by house officers wey dey look at you like saviour and consultant wey dey treat you like small pikin ☑️ Written consults for 7 other departments (because every case suddenly get heart, kidney, or sugar component) You no chop since morning. Your own BP don dey rise small-small from the hypertension patients wey no dey take their drugs. You dey explain to one family for the 7th time why their father need urgent surgery when dem never pay last admission bill. Then afternoon round with consultant: “Reg, why is this patient not in the ICU ?” You explain. For your mind you want tell am say no be your papa get ICU. Consultant shake head: “No, you for think deeper.” You swallow the correction like bitter leaf soup. Evening call start at 4pm sharp. One new admission; one small boy that climbed mango and fell on his back. He can't move any of his limbs, but he is breathing fine. You're suspecting internal decapitation. If he doesn't get operated in 12 hours, he'd never walk again and your Neurosurgeon is on sabbatical. 'Isn't the lord great?,' you said in your mind. You send a message to your HOD about it. Another one: stroke patient wey family bring late, now hemiplegic and aphasic. CT shows a large bleed. Inoperable. You do your best, but inside you know wetin time fit do. By 2am, you dey write notes under dim light (NEPA never bring light since morning and gen don off since 10pm). Your eyes dey close but ward nurse still dey drop new file: “Doc, we have an acute abdomen, perforation confirmed with X-ray” You go attend, instruct one of your house officer to work up, get blood, inform theater and call you when patient is in the theater. You see four more patients. Repaired two bad lacerations from road traffic accidents, you tried giving copious analgesics but pharmacy said you're doing too much. You no argue. You put another accident victim with femoral fracture on traction and counselled them about the long and expensive surgery and recuperation ahead of them. You head to the call room hoping for 30 minutes of rest. On the way, your house officer call you that patient is on the table. You head over, buy coke and gala on the way and end up doing block resection and anastomosis. By the time you finish in 7am, you don dey feel dizzy. Accident call you for another laceration, you pass am to your second house officer. Make him use that one learn. You are already asleep before you get on bed. Morning come like thief. You no even sleep for 30 minutes. You look like person wey fight bandits all night, shirt and hair rumpled, and tie loose. Because you no get time to read overnight, they grill you like suya for 8am morning review. But you no mind. Consultants said na dust dey your brain. E no even move you. With your tired ass, you still did ward rounds, taught students and attended to consults till 4pm the next day. By 4pm, you drag yourself to car. One patient wey you manage yesterday wave from bed: “Thank you oga doctor. God go bless you.” You smile small and nod. Residency sweet for mouth, but the body and mind dey pay serious price. Nigerian doctors for training deserve better pay, better rest, better support… and consultants wey go encourage instead of only correct. We laugh through the grind… but the fatigue na real companion. Next episode still dey load. Peace ✌️

@ObaniyiLOJ @HubWendy Stop talking to nurses. They are mostly C students.

@HubWendy All of this And hospitals didn't STOP them from carrying out these procedures. Why did they have to STOP nurses?

Not MD crying that every other profession wants to ste al their job description when they are the ones always meddling. Doctors will cannulate Doctors will transfuse Doctor will Catheterize Doctor will draw blo od in the ward Doctors will give IV meds Why don’t you guys add NG tube feeding to your job description, even wound dressing self, Igwe 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Lmao 🤣 You all said nurses are doing nothing or have little or nothing to do in the ward, leave our little job for us niiii. Very soon, doctors will start doing nursing handover or probably start joining nurses for report writing and handover.

@Dating_Diary2 She went to date yahoo boys and came back to you her "mumu man" after getting used and burned. Mumu men must suffer.

She left me after saying... “I prayed about it… and I don’t think we’re meant to be.” No fight. No drama. Just a quiet ending that didn’t feel like it should be the end. I asked if she was sure. She said yes. I asked if there was someone else. She said no. I asked what changed. She said, “Nothing changed… I just feel peace about walking away.” And that was the hardest part. Because how do you argue with “peace”? So I let her go. The weeks after felt empty. Not dramatic, just a silence where something familiar used to be. I prayed, not even to get her back, but just to understand what God was doing. Slowly, I started changing too. I stopped chasing answers in panic. I stopped forcing clarity. I focused on my own life, my walk with God, my healing. Months passed. Then a year. One day, she texted: “I need to see you.” We met at a café. She looked different, calmer, softer, like someone who had survived a storm. She said she had been wrong. Not wrong about feelings, but about timing, fear, and assuming peace always means exit. “I thought God was removing you,” she said, “but I think He was shaping both of us.” We didn’t rush anything. We talked, we prayed, we moved slowly this time, with wisdom instead of emotion. What surprised me most wasn’t that we found our way back… It’s that we came back as different people. Not healed by time alone, but by surrender. Now I don’t see it as a breakup. I see it as a pause God used to rebuild two people who weren’t yet ready for what they were praying for. Sometimes God doesn’t say “no.” Sometimes He says, “not yet… I’m still working on you.”

@AramideOyekunle @Ehdeey You are not HR to your brother. Don't behave like a power drunk.

My Dad just got to know my jobless younger brother's phone cost N1,200,000. So he lied to Dad that i sent most of the money to him, that i will get a call from Dad soon so i should lie for him, i asked him the details of how he got the phone, he told me everything. Nah tonight my brother go know how HR and Management dey judge for panel.

@umukoro58129 @dr_afo What is CDcare?

@dr_afo Lool 1. Take a loan. Its better. The more you save, the more expensive the stuff gets and the more you will need to save 2. Buy the items small small. When you have the money, buy the inverter and keep, then the panels till all is complete. OR 3. Try CDcare.

I've been saving for a N1.3m solar system for the past 4 months and I've not saved 50%. I don't go partying. I don't fornicate. I don't drink or smoke. I don't have unnecessary subscriptions. I don't do giveaways. Yet my savings end up saving my life every month. Nigeria will make you feel like a lazy person despite trying your best.

@Medzonetv Upper GI bleeding. Upper GI Endoscopy.

A 50-year-old man is rushed into the ER at 2 AM. 🏥 Vitals: BP: 80/50 mmHg 📉 Pulse: 130 bpm (Thready) 📈 He is cold, clammy, and passing this black, tarry stool with a stench that fills the entire ward. He has been self-medicating with Diclofenac and Ibuprofen for chronic body pain for the past 6 months. As the Doctor on call, what is your immediate resuscitation priority, and which bedside procedure confirms the source?👇

The issue is not about whether the patient is poor or not. If all the patients were rich, medical students will still practise using them. Or how else do you think they will learn.

@Olori_Seun1 @Ekitipikin Ode

@Ekitipikin "You once drove a rickety Honda crosstour just a couple of years ago until sportybet came through for you"

Lmao… I told this girl i was too tired to drive, and she offered to pick me up, which i agreed to… then she pulls up in a 2016 Toyota Camry 😂 Had to switch off my phone. Know your worth, king.

@Wizarab10 How do broke women have sex? The audacity to have sex when you are broke. Who has sex with broke women?

If you want to know how rich a woman is, look at her husband. A real woman doesn't mind wearing rag and slippers trekking under hot sun in Upper Iweka, as long as her man is glowing, driving Jeep and eating her money.

@JKurue007 @Nrs_Danie In private practice. In federal teaching hospitals, consultant salary is not up to 1 million.

@Nrs_Danie Consultant Doctors are paid almost a million naira monthly or more depending on the where they're working or area of Specialization in Nigeria 😏

Today a Nigerian doctor on my ward sat with me in MDT room, we had 5minutes for our next patient review, plus the ward consultant wasn’t with us so we got into a chitchat. “Bro how are you?” I asked the doctor. “See eh I am exhausted but what can I do? Back in Nigeria I was paid 450,000 naira monthly as a top consultant! I mean the highest level you can get to as a consultant o, but look at me working as a junior doctor here” he looked physically drained and you can see that his passion for the job is 2% “450k as a consultant? 😳” I asked in shock. Asin in Nigeria, consultant are looked at as money machine because they earn a lot due to their status, but how little did we know? “Aren’t you trying to be consultant in the UK?” I asked him, he sigh deeply and said…
