@ ckinjan:

cystitis: uncomplicated .. TMP/SMZ or quinolone for 3 days
with Diabetes same for 7 days

always exclude pyelonephritis ...

Is this correct?

@ckinjan: No I am not. I referred to my notes and answered you.

Exclude pyelonephritis: Patient is more sick. like high fever, pain. and costo-vertibral angle tenderness.

I am so scared to take date .. Should I take 22nd Feb? Will that be enough time (14 days) for my last revision including UW? (I have not read MTB for Internal medicine even for once and I don't know how much time will it take) or should I take date for following week? I cannot decide please help. ..

My best wishes are with you.
Good Luck

Sorry Ckinjan, I am bothering you so much.. but Can I skip second revision of UW? Just read MTBS and go for the exam? I am reaching a stage where I cannot study anymore... just want to finish this ...


0 - ArchivalUser - 02-07-2012

No no u are not,sometimes we really need opinion,if its like that you should go for it,study ur notes and mtb,MTb is good for review and i feel it covers alot if not all topics.
You will do great IA.
