Neurology

Frankly, i'm just happy it's the weekend.

I think i would really like neurology if i were younger. it's very thinky. Lots of why, how and where. But what i'm really wanting at this point in my life is to be able to DO things. Neurology does help people, but not through many procedures, mostly meds and referrals. I'm determined to learn to use my hands.

I should have learned more neuroanatomy - not that my sense of *where* would be any better in the brain than in, say, Guelph, or Quebec.

I should have learned more about meds used for parkinson's disease.

I did find that my time at camp helped a lot. Which was a bit surprising since camp kids usually fall under psychiatric care instead of neurologist care. However, I knew what a tic was, what PANDAS were, and what Restless legs syndrome is. And i've seen "stuckness" before.

Glad i learned how to do a proper neuological exam though. One less gaping hole in my knowledge. (thousands left to fill.)
