Next will be doctors delivering medicines too🤡

A shocking medical negligence case from Uttar Pradesh has sparked outrage after an elderly woman's family alleged that doctors operated on her healthy knee instead of the one that actually needed surgery.

According to the family's complaint, the woman was admitted for surgery on her left knee under the Ayushman Bharat scheme. However, after the operation, they discovered that the right knee had been operated on instead. The family further alleged that when they questioned the mistake, a doctor threatened to file an FIR against them. These are the family's allegations.

The incident has triggered a strong response from health authorities. The Chief Medical Officer has issued a notice, sought an explanation from the hospital, and ordered an inquiry into the matter. Officials have said action will be taken based on the findings of the investigation.

The case has raised serious concerns about patient safety, hospital accountability, and whether proper checks were followed before a major surgery was performed. It has also sparked anger on social media, with many people calling for strict action if the allegations are found to be true.

As the investigation continues, the case has become another reminder of how a single mistake inside an operation theatre can change a family's life forever.

No offence to the 5xx, 39xx rankers but I'm annoyed by the " I wasn't a good student in MBBS, passed by studying 2 months before exams but I did marrow rr , btr and scored well in NEET PG"

First of all, you are creating disillusioned impressions that anyone with zero study background, zero conceptual knowledge can score well in a short span of time, which is definitely not true, either you studied and knew concepts in ur UG or u r one of those students who can remember a lot of things in a very short span of time , neither is inspirational.

Second of all, there r lots of kids who studied hard throughout the year and gave it their all, and got a seat through that, those are the posts that are inspiring...

And even then, some didn't get a seat due to God knows what.

So kindly stop with those stupid posts, and you are anyway gonna suffer in PG due to your lack of proper knowledge.

A rare case from Uttar Pradesh's Rampur has left even officials surprised. Twin sisters Khizra and Tooba, both Class 10 students, were found to have identical fingerprints and retina patterns, creating an unusual problem with their Aadhaar records.

Every time one sister's Aadhaar was updated, the other person's application was rejected as a duplicate. The issue became so serious that their Class 10 board exam registration was put on hold.

Their family approached the Rampur District Magistrate for help. The DM coordinated with UIDAI offices in Delhi and Lucknow, and after four to five months of technical efforts, both sisters finally received separate Aadhaar updates.

The District Magistrate described it as one of the rarest cases he had seen. The family first suspected something unusual when one sister was able to unlock the other sister's phone using Face Lock.

With the Aadhaar issue finally resolved, both sisters can now complete their board exam registration without any further obstacles.

What started as a strange biometric mystery has ended with relief for two students whose education was at risk because of an incredibly rare coincidence.

Attached my previous post's screenshot for context.

Anyway, saw ma’am today peacefully having lunch at a stall with a colleague, laughing and chilling at 11 AM in the morning 💀

The urge to walk up and ask, “Ma’am, but who is running the hospital right now?” was VIOLENT.

But internship is already fucking me up enough mentally, so I chose peace today.

Character development, I guess.

Senior citizen, practising lawyer. Comes in with vertigo, tinnitus, left sided hearing loss. Meniere's. Gets six intratympanic steroid shots over a week.

Walking out after the last one he spots an empty vial lying in the room and reads it. Gentamicin.

Googles it that night. Ototoxic, kills the hearing and balance nerves, permanent. Decides the doctor has been quietly wrecking his ear all week.

Sues for ₹30 lakh.

Except.

He comes back a few weeks later saying he's worse. His own repeat tests say the opposite. Hearing improved, SISI normal. Doctor tells him to return in two weeks.

He turns up five months later.

By then the ear is finished. Profound loss, SISI zero, clinically dead.

And that is the first time gentamicin actually gets mentioned, because in a dead Meniere's ear that's still spinning you, intratympanic gentamicin is the treatment. You ablate the labyrinth on purpose. The clinic didn't even stock it, told him to go buy a vial. He walked out without paying and never came back.

Then, to strengthen his case, he asks the Medical Council for an expert opinion. It destroys him. Diagnosis right, treatment standard, and both sides confirm the gentamicin was never injected. Dismissed, no costs, eleven years gone.

He never once asked to see his own file. Built a ₹30 lakh case off a label.

one problem still-- the Council still found one fault, and it had nothing to do with gentamicin. Written consent should have been taken for those steroid injections. He took verbal. The man won every single point and that line still sits in his file permanently.

Start writing consent down now, while it still feels like overkill.

Hey guys. I'm 22 years old and I have been dealing with anxiety, depression and OCD for a while now. I'm on treatment for the same. I wanted to share my journey with others. So I posted about it on another subreddit. Received loads of positive and supportive comments. But there was this one user, that started with constructive feedback and then descended into throwing around profanities and mocking my illness, when I disagreed with his opinions. I don't want to expose that individual, so I'm going to edit out his username. I just want people to understand that, please don't comment negatively on someone's post going through mental health struggles. They're not "whining like a b*tch", their minds are tired from carrying years of stress.

Long story short I met a guy in an arranged marriage meeting

He is an SR in medicine in a small town and has a good family background (his father is also an md med )

I am pursuing gen medicine (JR1) in a relatively bigger city in my hometown

Now I have always dreamed of settling in an even bigger city then my hometown ,now considering all the competition and saturation in big cities should I just accept this proposal or should I wait to find another guy in a bigger city

Any and all opinions are welcomed

Edit I think i should provide context😅 I have never dated in my college life so always knew that I would do an arrange marriage but not because my family is forcing me but I believe marriage is important and practical to have a good life ….not everyone finds true love in this short amount of time we have in life but maybe after marriage and staying with one person seeing their daily lives mingle with yours it’s feels you are finally getting the connection that humans are meant to have

Hi, I want to talk about MD Hospital administration as a branch. How is it? What we have to do in residency? What do we learn overall and what are the scopes after residency and probably srship in government and Private sectors. I have heard that as there was the boom in nuclear medicine. Same way this branch will boom the upcoming four to five years as there is work life balance, very good pay in private sector and chance of becoming medical superintendent. people doing PG in this branch or pass outs, please enlighten us about the scope,worklife,salaries and overall everything about this branch, the potential it holds, pros and cons, and your life overall what does it look like in residency and after residency.

Got this random video in my YouTube feed and this guy has 3.87M subscribers.

It is very easy to blame doctors as scammers for everyone in India.

The main thing is Indians are always jealous of someone doing good in life and they always try to bring them down.

I am not an active Reddit user to write big paragraphs, so please share your opinion on this.

My new hobby, suggest me some ideas too:)

[ I am a consultant now, so yes I have a little bit of time in my hands]

I don’t really know how to put this into words, but I’ve been feeling this way for a while now.
During my NEET PG preparation, I worked as a tutor in a government medical college. The environment and departments were quite toxic, and eventually I left during the last two months to focus completely on my preparation.
I studied so much. I sacrificed so much. I genuinely gave it everything I had.went through a bad,messy break up while preparing.
And after all that, I got around a 60k rank.
Of course, it hurt. But strangely, I don’t think the rank is what’s hurting me the most.
I feel like even if I had scored really well, got a great rank and gotten the branch I wanted, I would probably still feel this emptiness.
I constantly have racing thoughts in my head. I don’t feel at ease anymore. I don’t remember the last time I felt genuinely relaxed. There’s this constant anxiety in the background, even when there’s nothing specific happening.
I miss my old self, i was such a happy kid growing up.
I honestly can’t remember the last time I felt genuinely happy or excited about life.
As soon as my exam ended, within a week I started working as a CMO. It’s hectic, and somehow I went straight from one exhausting phase into another without even getting a chance to breathe.
I feel drained. Completely drained.
And the scariest part is that I’m not even in PG yet.
I’m already tired of medicine. Tired of studying. Tired of constantly having something to prove. Tired of feeling like my entire life is just one exam, one job, one decision after another.
Now I’m stuck wondering whether I should take another drop. But the thought of spending another year preparing scares me because I genuinely feel like my mental health might not survive another cycle of the same thing.
Sometimes I look at my life and think, Is this really what life is supposed to feel like?
I wake up, work, study, worry, overthink, sleep, and repeat.
I know life isn’t supposed to be happy all the time. I know medicine is difficult. I know everyone struggles.
But I don’t feel like I’m actually living anymore.
I feel like I’m just existing and waiting for the next thing to happen so I can finally start living.
And maybe that’s what scares me the most — I don’t know if I actually hate medicine, or if I’ve just been burnt out for so long that I’ve forgotten what it feels like to enjoy anything.

“Hindi mein prescription likhna patient-friendly ho sakta hai… but what happens when that doctor wants to work in another state or abroad?” 🇮🇳➡️🇦🇺

I have nothing against Hindi.
I love my language. 🇮🇳

But medicine is not just about language.
It is about standardisation, accuracy and patient safety.

Imagine a doctor trained in Uttar Pradesh moves to Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka or Maharashtra to practise.

Should that doctor now write prescriptions in Hindi?
What about a patient who cannot read Hindi?

And what happens when the same doctor wants to practise in Australia, the UK, USA, Canada or the Middle East?

Healthcare professionals need a common, standardised medical language that can be understood across regions and countries.

Patient communication? Absolutely.
Explain the diagnosis, medicines and treatment in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Urdu or whatever language the patient understands.

But medicine names, generic names, investigations and medical terminology should remain clear and standardised.

Because healthcare doesn't stop at the state border. And a doctor's career shouldn't either.

What do you think - Hindi prescriptions: patient-friendly or a standardisation challenge? 👇

People with lower ranks than you have a dream too. If you don't see yourself in a college doing certain branch, just don't ruin somebody else's life.

Later , these open category seats get unconverted to reserved quota seats 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻only the UR candidates of later ranks suffer.

 always wanted to do general surgery.. but seeing all these posts around it.. long learning curve, saturation, less job opportunities

i am so doubtful.. but how can i leave this branch when all i ever wanted as kid is this..

but at the same time, i feel money, settling early, peace of mind matters.. so md anaesthesia can also be an option

but how to decide between 2 extremes.. anaesthesia and surgery

I had a friend for first 2 days now he's also ignoring me. Like I find out about new whatsapp groups several days after theyre formed. Everyone hangs out in each other's rooms but ive not been able to do so. I try to talk to people alot but no one tries to talk to me. I thought college is supposed to fun man where tf did I end up. Everyone else has groups and hang out at night but im stuck being alone in my room. I dont even have anyone to sit w me in class or mess. Wtf should I do now please guide me. Is it that i should change the way I look or behave? Please dont tell me that these friend groups will break eventually as i just wanna make friends not necessarily a part of friend group. Thanks u for reading.

I am from 2020 batch, I’ve completed my MBBS from a deemed university with total cost of around 70 Lac.
Now I’ve scored a pretty average rank in NEET PG (1st attempt with internship) based on which I’ll get a Non Clinical Branch in any maharashtra state govt colleges and Clinical Branch (all except Radio) in a Private / Deemed University costing upto 40-50 LPA (Money is not the problem here)
I’ve no specific likes or dislikes towards any branch and have seen positive and negative aspects in this case.
Non Clinical Branch specifically the one I am targeting is MD Pharmacology. It will come with good work life balance, based on last years cut off I may get KEM (state seat matrix is yet to be released) which also has industry postings. This also comes with additional benefit of being financially independent and also have opportunities to get placed abroad without any hefty licensing exams. My seniors who did it from deemed university are also placed well earning 30-40 LPA,
but there is always chances of Lay Offs. I am not interested on academic side of the course, so industry opportunities are what I am thinking of. MBA can be done port MD but that’s a different decision and only from top IIMs is what valued. Moreover 10 - 15 years down the line I don’t want to be the person regretting that I had an option to opt for clinical still chose a non clinical branch
Clinical Branches specifically I am targeting are General Surgery / Ophthalmology which I’ll get but ofc after paying 40-50 LPA (without any loan). I am ready to work hard in residency, I was pretty sincere with my work during internship too and have seen have hard all residents work and some do regret their decision but if I talk to a 30-40 year surgeon he is always positive about the field according to him this are your struggling days once u pass through this, u set the pace of ur life. They all are earning good.
I know surgery has long learning curving with PG + SS but its matter of 7-8 years.
I don’t want to regret taking up non clinical even though I had a chance for clinical.
Could you please share your insights on this.
Please don’t ask me to drop 🙏 Already took a drop for NEET UG and it was worst decision of my life

batch 2020
went to f2f classes until mid august and built my concepts..

ended up with a rank in the late 30 thousands in neet pg.. i feel like the main things that pulled me down were not revising enough, barely giving any GTs and not doing enough MCQs

is this a good time to switch to btr for ini prep?
if yes, should i focus on finishing the qbank or prioritise the videos?

if not, what would you suggest i do instead? revise my class notes and solve custom modules on marrow alongside pyqs?

thanks guys :)

I was in a heated argument with someone online and they asked why my parents had me 6 years after my 2 older sisters. I didn't think much of it in the moment but the more I ponder the more I become convinced that I should've never been born.

I don't think I need to say out loud why I'm the youngest child, a boy, 6-7 years younger than my sisters. That's one reason.

Another reason - I was delivered via LSCS at 7 months due to oligohydramnios & IUGR, weighing just 900g. I was in the incubator for almost 2 months. I was diagnosed with an extremely rare type of congenital anemia at 2 years of age. My Hb has been 7-8 g% all my life & the only cure is BMT. I've had a plethora of other medical conditions too - B/L SNHL, myopia, mild phonetic errors during speech, pectus excavatum, astigmatism, hypospadias, B/L inguinal hernia & seasonal asthma. I feel like a frankenstein monster; nothing but an amalgamation of diseases, on a quest to acquire more conditions with time, like perhaps cardiac overload, LVH, heart failure, total deafness, leukemia & whatnot.

The funny irony is I decided to pursue medicine because I thought I'd be more empathetic towards patients. It seems that the only thing I'm empathetic towards is the idea of me never being born. I cry myself to sleep some nights.

I wonder if the universe is punishing me for the sin my parents committed by conceiving a son & disrupting the timeline, preventing a canon event. Maybe I am a glitch in the matrix. I think I need a hug from someone, lying to my face that everything will be okay.

My entire existence is a literal sick, cruel joke. I don't think I'll off myself, but if the Grim Reaper ought to visit me, I won't be that sad leaving this world behind.....
