Last week I completed a 1 week rotation in Clinical Pathology. I enjoyed the rotation a lot especially because it was a bit more laid back and also because it was fun. We practiced looking at cells under the microscope for abnormalities. We spent a lot of time at the ten-headed microscope which allowed our instructor to drive the microscope and point out things while we all simultaneously viewed . I meant to get a picture of my group at the microscope and totally forgot :( So here's a picture from the internet to illustrate what the microscope was like.

| The microscope was like this but with 10 heads (viewing ports) |
We looked at all kinds of cells. Cells that make up blood, cells from masses, cells in abdominal fluid, etc. Emphasis was mostly on telling normal from abnormal and cancer from regeneration. Below are just some cool pictures of cells that I found online that are similar to things we looked at under the microscope.

When we weren't looking at things under the microscope we were practicing interpreting blood work and test results and coming up with differential diagnoses for both large and small animals. We also practiced making blood smears and doing urinalysis practical skills. This rotation was very clinically applicable because everything that we practiced and learned will be used in a clinical setting every single day.
We ended the week with a Food Friday. We each brought something that fit our chosen theme of Mexican food and had a yummy lunch. After lunch we had an open book practical exam and that ended the rotation. My next rotation will be a 3 week rotation in Anesthesiology.

My name is hoover, my 18 year old daughter, Tricia was diagnosed with herpes 3 years ago. Since then, we have moved from one hospital to another. We tried all kinds of pills, but every effort to get rid of the virus was futile. The bubbles continued to reappear after a few months. My daughter was using 200mg acyclovir pills. 2 tablets every 6 hours and 15g of fusitin cream. and H5 POT. Permanganate with water to be applied twice a day, but all still do not show results. So, I was on the internet a few months ago, to look for other ways to save my only son. Only then did I come across a comment about the herbal treatment of Dr Imoloa and decided to give it a try.
