A Day in the Life of a Doctor - July

01/07/2026

Wednesday 1st July was a busy day for me at work.

We had 2 new admissions, plus a patient from the previous day who was unfortunately still struggling with post-operative hypotension

Hypotension is quite a common perioperative complication. It can range from mild, asymptomatic low blood pressure, where they can still maintain perfusion to vital organs, all the way through to severe cardiovascular instability

We monitor a patient's response to their low blood pressure by frequently checking how they're feeling - dizziness or lightheadness, syncope, and confusion are signs that their blood pressure isn't high enough to adequately perfuse their brains. We also monitor their urine output, and their observations. We often use arterial lines to monitor invasive blood pressure if they are unstable.

Treatment can range from simply observing - many patient's will sort their own blood pressure given time, and this is what we tend to do with mild, asymptomatic hypotension. Sometimes we give IV fluid, especially if we suspect dehydration or blood loss is the cause. If we believe a patient is normovolaemic, and they have severe and/or symptomatic low blood pressure, we treat them with medications such as metaraminol.

Low blood pressure can cause organ damage, such as an AKI. It can also really impact patient's recovery by limiting their ability to mobilise.

It is most often caused by the anaesthetic drugs given, and most patients recover within 1-2 days

Tomorrow. I just have to make it through tomorrow. Today is technically my last day of studying before joining college (hopefully). After tomorrow’s entrance exam i am just going to yeet all the book out of my room and sleep for like 3 days straight to make up for the iced coffee and monster fueled all nighters i’ve pulled this week

Sksks that was the caption i typed the day before my exam and then closed tumblr for 2 seconds and then ltierally forgot about this post till now, 2 days after my exam.

So here’s the new caption lol.

Update on my exam- it went kind of okay. I’m just glad it’s over. Now i dont have any exam for another month, if i choose to give it. I got waitlisted at a uni i Really wanted to get into. So im in constant stress about that.

I slept like 14 hours today. And im still sleepy.

Now since i have much much less to study now i have more time to read novels and work on my art.

Also excited to see my friends after a long long time. I havent met them since last christmas T~T

This is for the name aesthetics. Congrats on reaching 8k! My name is Katrina and my favourite colours are blues, like dark, midnight ones with a bit of purple thrown in. Thanks!

thank you!

name aesthetic: you’re a hurricane and a tsunami all in one, eyes as blue as the deep ocean, fish swimming through your heart, seaweed tangling your feet, the water is your home, the sun makes rays in the ocean that you never thought were real until you saw them with your own eyes

no more please!

Here is the bujo spread from this past week! I included mostly blue and purple colors (because they’re my fave) and also because those seem like holo colors, so they match my holo stickers that I got from Target!

My mom and I made a pact that we would go to the gym every day this week, so as I write this I am dozing off. I’m so glad I’ve been pushing myself that I feel so sleepy!

Btw, the two photos of the cat are my baby Melody, but I do not own the rest of them! That’s all for now! xx

Here are some older photos I took before my mini hiatus (✧≖‿ゝ≖)

This one features the planner I used to use, which I unfortunately don’t use anymore. It was already pre-printed when we bought it, which I thought I wanted until I learned about bullet journals. I feel so bad that my parents paid for this and I barely even used it ˚‧º·(˚ ˃̣̣̥᷄⌓˂̣̣̥᷅ )‧º·˚ but I guess that’s part of the learning process. If anyone has tips for what to do with an unused/old planner, please let me know!

Otherwise, enjoy my old math notes and my failed attempts to use this planner >.<

(btw, if anyone want’s this planner it is located right here! I do like this planner, it just turns out that I work best with a bujo)
