What? I can't believe it. I'm already done with my two-week Coronary Care Unit rotation. I actually ended up liking it way more than I expected to, and it made me wonder: if we had rotated through the different subspecialties in Internal Medicine during our third year, would I have ended up wanting to be an adult cardiologist instead of a pediatric cardiologist? Because it turns out I don't just love the baby hearts, I love the adult hearts, too.
But that's neither here nor there. What is here is the fact that not only did I finish my CCU rotation today, I also finished my last inpatient rotation until I start my intern year. Am I excited for the freedom of shift work and regular office hours? Yes. Am I terrified that when I start my career as a physician next summer, I'll have completely forgotten how to take care of sick patients? Um, yes again.
Ah well, we will cross that bridge when we cross that bridge.
