1) Self reflective writing on their medical student career Hello I’m Cherish Kandru Intern from 2k18 batch.

3) Anecdotal self reflections on their internship learning with some video evidence of procedures performed Hello I’m Cherish Kandru Intern from 2k18 batch. This blog is all about my experiences in the Medicine department. I’m posted in the department from 31st of July Psychiatry being my posting for the first 15 days.

I reluctantly went up as I was already on a roll with the 36hr shifts I had to take. But then as I went to the patient I was filled with compassion for that Thin and undernourished patient who was going through a lot!! A 35 year old female presented with C/o painful skin lesions over arms, legs, back since 2 months -C/o Fever and Burning Micturition since 4 days HOPI- Patient was apparently asymptomatic 2 months back then she developed painful skin lesions over arms, legs, back.
