4th week...

woops...2 more weeks for end posting exam...just read around 300+ pages of the paediatric text book...got 200 pages to go...=(... nothing much this week..been to Thalassemia day care centre in my hospital...nowadays, thalassemia is a common health problem face by Malaysian. It occurs in around 1 in 20 if not mistaken.

Anyone knows about thalassemia? it has something to do with the abnormal protein formation in the Red Blood Cells (RBC)..it causes increase RBC destruction (more fragile) and in layman terms .. means more blood loss..that is why, thalassemia patient usually need regular blood transfusion. Thalassemia is a genetic inherited problem and not an infection problem. It can happen to any of our offspring so if you wanna get marry soon, check for any thalassemia in your gene...if both u and ur partner are carrier means there are chances that ur offspring might be a carrier as well or the affected ones...

This week got KL-Selangor gathering... went to a restaurant for dinner and some introduction for the juniors... this year, there are some pretty girls and some handsome boys... not a bad gathering...get to know juniors better since im already 4th year...can act abit bossy...=)
