There are multiple reasons why a person decides to study medicine: fun,<br> social pressure,<br> family pressure,<br> to follow the footsteps of their parents and medical relatives,<br> love for the sciences or the most common reason \"to save lives\",<br> when choosing this career,<br> most of them have no idea of what is coming.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9\" src=\"http:\/\/clockworkpriya.vornix.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/March-234.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" \/><br\/>\r\n\r\nThere are many hours of theoretical and abstract reading at least the first 2 years (In the curriculum on which my career was based) where you have no idea on how to cure a disease,<br> not even knowing how to detect it and your family and friends will ask you about their symptoms and expect you to prescribe medications,<br> because for them you are a doctor from the day you pass the college admission test.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14\" src=\"http:\/\/clockworkpriya.vornix.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/April-170.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><br\/>\r\n\r\nSubsequently,<br> approximately in the 3rd year you start going to the hospital,<br> examine the patient and you learn how to make a medical history,<br> which is hard to master until the last year of the career,<br> because disguised as something simple,<br> deep down it's really complex to do a perfect medical history and the difficulty increases if the patient is unconscious or unable to speak,<br> which is quite common in some cases like Cerebrovascular disease,<br> it can be frustrating for the student at first but that feeling is perfectly normal,<br> since it happens to all the medical students.\r\n\r\nIn 4th year you start to rotate through the different areas,<br> which in my case were: surgery,<br> obstetrics,<br> internal medicine and pediatrics,<br> where you will love one of the areas to death,<br> while one of them or more,<br> will seem the most terrible of all,<br> but you will have to tolerate them for 2 months during the next 3 years,<br> the professors,<br> the nurses,<br> the resident doctors and fellow students will be a fundamental part of the experience in the hospital life,<br> the learning in these years will be much greater than the first 3 years of the career,<br> here you will learn to connect emotionally with patients,<br> detect their illness and indicate the appropriate treatment for them.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13\" src=\"http:\/\/clockworkpriya.vornix.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/100_4598.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2880\" height=\"2160\" \/><br\/>\r\n\r\nAnother important part of this experience are the medical guards,<br> the first guard is always exciting as it indicates the beginning of a new stage,<br> but you can also be deeply marked by it,<br> in my case I saw a birth in my first guard,<br> which was strange and bloody and it was an image that I could not get out of my head for weeks,<br> it is physically exhausting since it is necessary to stay 12 to 24 hours without rest or little rest depending on the flow of patients,<br> but if at the end of the day everything ends up going well,<br> the feeling of satisfaction is incredible.\r\n\r\nIn the 6th year they leave you in charge of basically everything because they consider you a doctor,<br> which can be frightening at first,<br> but with effort and confidence it tends to be a rewarding experience,<br> especially when patients look you in the eyes and thank you from the heart.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12\" src=\"http:\/\/clockworkpriya.vornix.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/20171111_100334-e1532220859368.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1344\" height=\"2240\" \/><br\/>\r\n\r\nThis career is one in which you will have mixed feelings of love-hate,<br> injustice,<br> satisfaction,<br> happiness and pain,<br> but at the end of the day if you really love it,<br> it will have been worth all the effort and sacrifice and you will always be ready for more,<br> putting always the patient's welfare as a priority,<br> often even above yours (not eating,<br> not sleeping,<br> not going to important events,<br> taking care of patients while being sick,<br> among other things).\r\n\r\nI hope you enjoyed this post,<br> see you son dear Friends of Steemit\r\n\r\n<center><img class=\"alignnone
