FASCIA TRANSMITS MESSAGES ACTING AS SECOND NERVOUS SYSTEM
"Of nerve there is no trace. But the cell framework, the cytoskeleton might serve."   1932's Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Charles Scott Sherrington (1857-1952) from 1952's Man on His Nature. Nerves provide the means for each cell in our body to be able to communicate with every other cell in our body. Right?  This is not entirely true, and this been known to be not entirely true for quite some time.  For one we know that chemical mediators (we refer to at least some of these as "INFLAMMATION") provide for communication.  Then there's our MICROBIOMES, making up part of our "ENTERIC NERVOUS SYSTEM" and also allowing cellular communication and messaging between distant tissues and organs.  There's another messaging system in your body that few people are aware of that may be equally as important (some believe even more so) --- FASCIA. Fascia researcher, cell biologist and biophysicist, DR. JAMES OSCHMAN recently quoted from a biology book that is over 60 years old (Man on His Nature), which can be seen at the top of the page.  The quote pertains to the fact that despite having no nervous system, a paramecium (single cell organism) can swim like a dolphin, avoid creatures trying to eat it, find food, and mate.  How is this?  How can a single-celled organism do all these things without a brain or nervous system to guide it and provide messages? And increasing amount of scientific research shows that certain cells found in the connective tissues not only communicate directly with the nervous system, but with can actually communicate with each other as well --- potentially over great distances.  Dr Alfred Pischinger (1899-1982) was the head of the Department of Histology and Embryology at the University of Vienna's Medical College.  In 1948 he went a step further than ANDREW TAYLOR STILL and described where the "neural" control of the EXTRA CELLULAR MATRIX (the gel-like sugars, proteins, and membranes that lie between the cells and absorb mechanical stress) came from, theorizing that this is where all disease starts --- something that other equally brilliant scientists are increasingly picking up on (HERE). Dr. Oschman shows how all bodily motion --- no matter how small --- generates electric fields that are caused by the compression, deformation, and stretching of LIGAMENTS, TENDONS, FASCIA, BONES, and other COLLAGEN-BASED CONNECTIVE TISSUES.  In nerve-like fashion these messages spread throughout the surrounding tissues like ripples on a pond, providing information to other areas of the body.  And if you have followed my BLOG POSTS ON FASCIA, you already realize that these messages travel through the water-based ECM at the speed of sound in water ---- 750 mph as opposed to just over 150 mph, which is the speed that nerve messages travel. Although many others have since followed his lead, Dr. Pischinger went so far as to state that Fascia is an organ (HERE is the brand new research on this).  Furthermore, he says that it is the body's single largest organ ----- the only system that touches every other system (even though most physicians will tell you that SKIN is the largest organ).  Although we now know that in the human body, the nerves branch down until they touch / affect each cell in the body, we are seeing that Dr. Pischinger was not far off.   Pischinger was one of the first to recognize the incredible importance of Fascia when he said over a half century ago that, "The fascia must be looked upon as a single organ, a unified whole, the environment in which all body systems function." University of Vermont's DR HELEN LANGEVIN (a neurologist and endocrinologist who is also affiliated with Harvard) has shown that Fascia forms a body-wide network that functions in a nerve-like signaling capacity.   Like nerves, the impulses travel by way of cells that electrically polarize and depolarize.  However, it does not stop there.  TISSUE REMODELING, MECHANICAL LOAD, CELLULAR DEFORMATION, POSTURAL CHANGES, and changes in motion or position (PROPRIOCEPTION), also transmit signals. These signals are altered by decreased function that is caused by things like CHRONIC PAIN or injury (or MICROSCOPIC SCAR TISSUE). Interestingly enough, Dr. Langevin keeps going.  She goes as far to discuss the probability of a relationship between the Connective Tissues (Fascia) and organs / organ systems.  Although the conditions needed to validate this relationship have been shown to occur in "laboratory test tubes", it has not yet been proven in living humans. What should you take away from all of this?  Only that properly functioning Fascia and Connective Tissues are absolutely critical to one's overall health.  We have seen doctor after doctor after doctor --- brilliant men of science (Oschman, Pischinger, Ingber, Still, and numerous others) who have pushed the controversial idea that all disease arises from abnormalities in the body's Connective Tissues (HERE or HERE).  Their belief is not arising from thin air, but from decades of clinical experience and research.  Maybe this is why in our clinic, we frequently get COMPLETELY AMAZING RESULTS!  Ignore the Fascia and other Connective Tissues at your own peril.  And for those who really like what they are seeing with fascia research, I have 160+ articles on the subject all neatly categorized into one post (HERE).  Enjoy!

I appreciate your nuanced and respectful anti-abortion post, and I want to raise a question that you didn't address. How do you regard medication abortions, which account for about 30% of abortions and can be performed extremely early? Your argument about fetal life wouldn't seem to apply as well at three or four weeks gestation. I'm not trying to pick a fight, just genuinely curious.
Don’t worry I don’t think you’re trying to pick a fight. I can dialogue with anyone on any subject really, so long as we’re both willing to listen and be respectful, even be willing to change our minds if we are exposed to something we hadn’t considered. I actually, generally, quite enjoy a good discussion. ;) I also am a firm believer that as long as you’re sincere, there is no such things as a bad question. I appreciate the ask, and I’m glad you felt my original post was respectful. I was worried about setting the wrong tone.
(On that note, before I get into this, I really want to make sure I make it clear I don’t think women who have abortions are any better or worse than anybody else. I don’t think most people who are pro-choice are bad people either–No more than the rest of us anyway. 1 in 4 people or so in the States, iirc, will have an abortion. It’s ludicrous to suppose they are all horrible people, or that their supporters are. I cannot know what women feel like going into those clinics, but I am given to understand that helpless, panicked, and desperate are common emotions, and if you are not given the proper support, or information, it is hard to make good decisions like that. Beyond even that, people make mistakes. I am not here to judge them, and if any woman is struggling post-abortion, I would say there is forgiveness, and redemption, and support out there for you.) 
You’re right; I barely touched on the issue of medication abortions. I felt the post was already longer than most people would care for anyway. Before I get into why I oppose those too, I should stress first that by the time most people know they’re pregnant there will already be a heartbeat, and likely discernible brain waves. Ergo, I think it would be rare that it wouldn’t be blindingly obvious you were dealing with a young child, even without the further evidence I am about to offer that life begins at feritilistaion. To offer a personal example, when my parents were trying to conceive my brother and I, my mom was very in tune with her natural cycles. She always knew when she was ovulating from the left side because she could feel a twinge in her lower  back, so she and my dad were able to conceive by brother and I on just the one attempt. Likewise, within a couple weeks after my conception, my mom knew she was pregnant even when it was too early for it to even be detectable by a pregnancy test, so she went to the hospital and asked for a blood test which confirmed she was pregnant. Then she and my dad went to get an ultrasound, and discovered my heart was already beating. That was when my dad went from pro-choice to pro-life, because he realised even at such an early stage, before it could easily be detected, I was alive!
But, of course, what if you have unprotected sex, or for whatever reason you have cause to believe that you could be pregnant really, really early? You’ve pretty much asked for an abortion from the first moment you could possible be considered pregnant. Even then I would say that this is wrong. The child is still a legitimate human being. There is overwhelming scientific consensus on this: Life begins at conception. 
First of all, we know that from the moment of conception the individual is alive. They have all the characteristics of a living entity. Cells are the smallest form of life. That is one of the basics of cell theory and biology. Moreover, once fertilization occurs they are the offspring of two humans, and they are humans genetically. Perhaps most importantly they are human organisms. They are not merely masses of tissue, or clumps of cells, because body cells do not have the capacity to grow, and change, and develop the way that an organism does. This is why sperm cells, egg cells, muscle tissue etc. do not have rights, while the human organism does. The zygote, blastocyst, embryo, fetus, infant, toddler, child, pre-teen, teenager, and adult are all humans in different stages of development, and each is as valid as the other. Furthermore, it is expected in our society to protect the most vulnerable of us such as children. To not do so is considered terrible, even monstrous, except when it comes to those who are developing in-utero. This makes no sense to me. Life begins at fertilisation, and if allowed to grow over the course of a couple decades, results into a fully mature adult of our species. This is the scientific evidence. To terminate that development is to kill the youngest of our kind, to deny them to right to continue to grow and learn and change. You would think every stage of human life from the zygote to the senior citizen would be equally as valuable. However, in the interests of profit and convenience, they are not. (Frankly, this applies to many seniors who are mistreated as well, and aren’t granted the respect and dignity they deserve.)
If you look at embryology textbooks you’ll see quotes like this:
Although human life is a continuous process, fertilisation is a critical landmark, because, under ordinary circumstances a new, genetically distinct human organism, is thereby formed. –Human Embryology and Teratology
Human life begins at fertilization.—The Developing Human 
Development begins with fertilisation—Langman’s Medical Embryology
Even amongst the pro-choice side we get:
There is no doubt that from the first moments of its existence, an embryo conceived from human sperm and eggs is a human being.—Peter Singer, Practical Ethics
Hence, the moment you terminate a pregnancy, whatever the stage, you deny a life the right to exist. You will never get it back. You will never know what that child could have been. 
Other issues that have to be considered with the understanding that life begins at conception is the issue of hormonal birth control, (since I’m on the subject and don’t really get into it in the first post...). I recently read an outraged News article talking about how some politician said that the Pill caused abortion. The man in question was called a religious nut, ignorant, and uninformed, but I rather thought the journalist was. Few people seem to realise that the Pill does not always stop ovulation, and hence, fertilization. While it makes it very difficult for fertilization to occur, it can still occur. If that happens, the Pill will usually result in a lost life, because the Pill also prevents implantation of the fertilised egg by altering the endometrium. This is why many claim that the Pill has the potential to be abortifacient. If you believe that life starts at conception, as I do, hormonal contraception is out. The morning after pill is really just a higher dosage of the regular pill anyway, so really this shouldn’t be surprising. 
Taking the next leap from the understanding that fertilization is the earliest stage of human development is the nature of IVF. To promote greater levels of success, multiple embryos are nurtured. They are screened for “undesirable” qualities whether it be for disabilities, or gender. (I’ve already talked about why that’s awful in my original post.) After successful implantation, the other embryos, the siblings of the lucky implanted ones, are terminated or frozen. Moreover, if the pregnancy results in multiples, because all embryos implant, there is often an abortion to reduce the pregnancy to something safer. Some mothers refuse to do this and you get “Octomom.” I respect them for not terminating their children, but it definitely made for some very high-risk pregnancies. The fact is if you are going to say that you believe something, you cannot pick and choose what it applies to. The evidence points to life begins at conception which means artificial methods of conception need to be looked at as well. I touched on this in my viability argument and I’ll just post that again here:
What about embryo adoption though? Did you know that that is possible? That that is even being done? It has already happened that parents who use IVF, and have no further need for the other embryos they have frozen allow other couples who cannot conceive naturally to adopt them. It has been called the earliest form of adoption. Well, how does this fit into the viability idea? If you can take an embryo and implant it into someone else’s womb? What if you can develop artificial wombs? What if you can remove a fetus in the first trimester and still keep it alive? The whole viability argument makes me feel a bit uncomfortable to be honest, because it is so inherently subjective.
As a side note, I wonder how those embryos who were adopted feel when they grow up. They know that they weren’t the lucky embryo chosen by their biological parents. They were the one frozen, unwanted, and then lucky enough to be granted a chance to truly live when they were given up for adoption. How do they feel knowing they have a biological sibling living with a different set of parents? That maybe they have more still frozen? When an infant is given up for adoption, it is usually a loving decision based upon the mother’s, and possibly even the father’s, recognition that they cannot care for the child. Frozen embryos though…they’re just children, or potential children if you don’t recognise them as being alive, stuck in a freezer. Their parents just have no need for them.
Since I’m on the subject I’ll just go all out and talk about that last point too: The family. 
I remember reading an article years and years ago about how in a family one child was given away, and one was allowed to stay. It was years ago, so I remember few of the details, but I do remember the parent was confused that the child who stayed kept acting out. Surely since she was the one who was kept, she would have felt more safe? In truth though, the child felt worse because she never felt “safe” in a family where people left. She learned that being loved seemed to be conditional. She wanted to know what the limits were for her. When would she be sent away? 
I was conceived right after my mother miscarried my elder brother. He was miscarried so late, he was almost born stillborn, but if he had been born, I would never have been conceived. It’s a crazy thought to me, because I was almost miscarried too. (My mom really struggled to carry a pregnancy to term.) I think sometimes about how it could have been James that was born, and me that was lost. As a consequence, I view my life as even more of a miracle then it already is. My brother died and I was able to live. It’s a humbling thought, and I can’t take it lightly. James is a part of my life, and while my family and I don’t speak of him often, when we do it is with love and grief and respect. My mother even cried once saying she could never have chosen between us, and she wishes she could have raised us both. I often find I want to live a good life, for his sake, as well as my own, and my family’s, and others. James is as important to me. I don’t want to waste the gift I was granted. I wonder though how it would feel if James had been aborted instead. There are, of course, few studies done on the siblings of aborted children, but what I have found indicates grief, anger, and survivor’s guilt–especially those who were once part of multiples that were “selectively reduced”. There have even been developed support groups for the siblings of aborted children who are struggling with it. Abortion rocks the entire family.
One woman who works at a Pregnancy Counselling Centre stated:
“Abortion teaches children that they have worth because they were conceived in the right conditions and at the right time; that they have value because their parents want them. Up to 50% of all American children have lost a brother or a sister to abortion, making it much more likely that they live with a performance view of love: I was born because I was wanted therefore I better perform so they will continue to love me.”
I imagine this is particularly understandable for those who were kept because they were a girl or a boy, and the parents wanted a girl or a boy rather than the opposite sex. Do you only love me because I’m the right gender? 
The above woman also said:
“I think one of the most difficult things for me to face is a woman who is attempting to justify an abortion for the sake of her other children. I always want to tell them…the best thing for her little ones is to have a brother or a sister. In fact, explaining to sons and daughters a few years in the future as to why they aborted their sibling will probably be the most difficult thing they will ever do[.]”
One sibling described how her mother felt unequal to raising a fourth child so aborted the baby. She was left wondering if she’d been that fourth child, would she have been aborted? It’s an uncomfortable question. Love is unconditional, and that should never be in question, and neither should someone’s right to live. These concepts go hand in hand. The value of a life does not rest on it’s convenience, gender, or health.  
This is the heart of the pro-life movement. It is about the inherent dignity of all human life from conception to natural death. It means to be so respectful of the dignity of the human person, you could not fathom supporting anything that would harm them. It means such a fundamental respect for human life that you do not terminate it, rather you do everything you can to support it. It means a respect for life so deep that you do not take the risks of having sex if you aren’t willing to carry a pregnancy, however unlikely it is to occur, to term. It means looking at children as blessing not burdens. It means loving the people you have in your life, young, old, or middle-aged whatever their physical or mental state. It means asking yourself the difficult question: Are people an inconvenience to you? It means pushing for better maternity leave, paternity leave, social services, health care, foster care, adoption services, palliative care, and so on and so forth. More than that, it means being willing to pitch-in and help out yourself. It’s not just about what happens in the abortion clinic. To truly believe in life and love means making a commitment. It will not always be easy, but it is worth it. Abortion may be the “easy” option, but it is not the best one. It shouldn’t even be option at all, and it is devastating in basically every way.

300+ TOP DENTAL HYGIENIST Interview Questions and Answers
DENTAL HYGIENIST Interview Questions for freshers experienced :-
1. Explain average day as a hygienist? Describe the routine job of a hygienist's functions, such as removing and cleaning dental deposits, examination of teeth and gums for signs of disease, sealant and fluoride application, partial periodontal therapy, x-rays, diagnostic tests, and assisting the dentist during treatments or examinations of patients. 2. Do you have any experience in performing tasks outside of your role? Occasionally, dental hygienists are allowed to remove sutures, administer anesthetics, apply fillings and dressings, work with metal restorations, take radio-graphs and impressions, and even administer minor treatment under the dentist's supervision. If you have ever performed any of these, mentioning them will be a plus. 3. How to prevent with tooth decay? Decay can be prevented in any of the following ways familiar to dental hygienists: gum margin maintenance, teeth whitening and bleaching, timely detection and/or prevention of gum disease or oral cancer, dental care facilities, etc. 4. How you communicate with clients? Talk about your experience of working with clients, including interactions such as instructing patients on dental care and creating awareness of hygiene; proper brushing methods, diet, and timely checkups. 5. Have you ever worked with children as dental hygienist? If you have, you may tell about your experience in dental services and instructing on health education, working with schoolchildren, etc. 6. List A few clues of teeth grinding? Unexplained headaches, especially early morning or late in the day Achy or tired facial muscles when you wake Trouble sleeping Extreme cold sensitivity throughout your mouth A clicking or popping jaw Front teeth seem sharper and chip easily, or have become uneven 7. What are toothpicks? Avoid them. They can traumatize gums. Use floss to remove food from between teeth. 8. What are interdental brushes? These small pipe-cleaner-looking brushes are bent at a right angle so they move between teeth above the gum. They're ideal for people with areas too difficult to clean with a regular toothbrush and floss, such as bridges. 9. What is tongue scrapers? These remove bacteria from the tongue, but a toothbrush does the job just as well. Make sure to scrape daily for best results. 10. What is gum massagers? These tools are available on their own, and you can find them at the end of some toothbrushes. They stimulate gums to toughen up tissue so they won't bleed as easily. Massage gums once a day.
Tumblr media
DENTAL HYGIENIST Interview Questions 11. Tell me are other dental hygiene products necessary? If you're taking care of the basics, everything else is just extra, but it still helps. 12. Should patient use mouthwash? It's not necessary if you're brushing and flossing several times a day, unless you have tooth decay, in which case your dentist may prescribe a fluoride rinse. But there's no harm in using a mouthwash for fresher breath. Swish it around after flossing and brushing to remove plaque and kill remaining bacteria. 13) How to brighten the teeth? A yellowed smile doesn't necessarily mean poor dental health. Tooth color is hereditary and affected by what we eat - everything from coffee and soda to berries and wine can stain it. 14. How to floss effectively? Break off about 18 inches of floss, wind it around your fingers, then guide it gently between teeth. When it reaches the gum line, curve it into a C-shape against one tooth and gently rub it up and down. (Never snap the floss in and out of gums.) Repeat this on every tooth, including the back of the ones in the back of your mouth. 15. What happened if someone don't floss? If you don't floss, you risk cavities, tooth decay and inflammation, the last of which can put you at risk for heart attack and stroke. 16. Tell me do I really have to floss? Absolutely. Once a day. It may feel like a chore, but it's essential for removing food particles and bacteria trapped between teeth that your toothbrush can't reach. 17. Why is there bad breath especially in the morning? During the day, we swallow about 2,000 times, which flushes out some bacteria. But at night we only swallow about 200 times, which leaves bad bacteria lingering in the mouth. 18. How to get rid of bad breath? To stay minty-fresh, you must brush, floss and brush your tongue to get rid of those bacteria - especially in the morning. 19. What is bad breath? Bad breath is often a sign of bacteria in your mouth. Odor-causing bacteria can hide in gum tissue, tongue crevices and between teeth. 20. What is sensitive tooth paste? If you experience irritation or shooting pains when eating or brushing teeth, try a desensitizing toothpaste. 21. What is the mean of whitening in toothpaste? These brighten teeth but won't bleach them shades lighter. For that, you need whitening strips, trays with bleaching gel, or in-office treatments, such as Zoom 3 and Bright smile. Ask your dentist which is right for you. 22. What is tartar control? If your teeth build up tartar quickly between dentist visits, this is a good option. But some tartar-control formulas can be too abrasive for teeth. If a toothpaste feels gritty when you rub it between your fingers, stay away. 23. What is the right technique to brush? Position your brush at a 45-degree angle to your gums. Move it back and forth across one quadrant in gentle, tooth-wide strokes. Brush the outside, inside and chewing surfaces of each tooth, focusing on one quadrant at a time. 24. Can patient use an electric toothbrush? Probably not. That basic, soft-bristled toothbrush will work just as well - if you use the right technique. 25. When one should brush? Ideally, you should brush after each meal or snack to quickly remove decay-causing, odor-emitting particles (like food) and bacteria from the tooth's surface. If that seems impossible, aim for at least twice a day. Not brushing increases risk of cavities, bad breath, tooth decay and bone loss. 26. What is the best way to brush? Just because your teeth are made of hard enamel, it doesn't mean you should scrub them like you would a dirty pot. Scrubbing that's too aggressive or a toothbrush that's too hard can harm gums and tooth enamel. Brush for two minutes every time (half a minute for each quadrant of teeth), and use a soft-bristled toothbrush. 27. Share your memorable experiences? Completing my class IV patient. It was very rewarding. Wow every experience was one to remember. 28. What do you wish someone would have told you before you started school? Patient management would be a huge aspect of the daily workday. It takes all kinds to make the world go around and many of them will sit in you dental chair. To clean every corner of my house and train my boys better because there was no looking back. 29. What things surprised you once you were enrolled in the dental hygienist program? The link between systemic health and oral condition. The depth of study and many other subjects to be mastered in DH was amazing. 30. What did you think dental hygiene was all about when you started school? Cleaning teeth. I thought it was all about teeth and gums! 31. Why did you choose hygiene as a profession? I knew health care was one of the fastest growing career areas, good pay, flexible hours. I didn't expect to love the work as much as I do. I wanted to be in a profession that I could apply my communication skills to teach people of all ages how to be healthier. Hygiene chose me! 32. What gave you a tough time that you wish you would have received more help with? More time with the ultrasonic would have been helpful.After four years of work I finally feel pretty effective with the ultrasonic. Also, sharpening the instrument was a challenge.I have worked very diligently to become proficient at this skill. The two biggies for me are coding and scheduling as I had no prior dental experience. 33. What was your favorite and most difficult class? My favorite and most difficult classes were Histology/Embryology and oral pathology we had fun memorizing, questioning and doing a few projects. The most difficult thing for me was to work on group projects. And yes I survived group projects (not a fan of these). I can now admit that these were very beneficial when working with a small group or staff every day! 34. What was the most difficult course or project for you? Periodontics was the most difficult, due to the big picture aspect to the disease. I didn't really understand how it all came together until I got into the work force.Through experience I began to see patients who had health issues that affected their perio status. Working with full blown perio cases brought it all together for me. 35. What courses taken prior to enrolling in the dental hygiene program supported you in the program? Anatomy and physiology (hands down) The Science courses including A & P, Chemistry, Microbiology as well as Psychology, Speech and Communications were all very helpful and necessary.

August 27, 2017 12:20 AM
I keep seeing those list of questions to get to know people here in Tumblr and in Twitter, so I decided to give it a shot. I found a list of questions that I think I could comfortably answer and would give you ideas of me aside from what I post here. Instead of asking for a random number or a word from ask, I answered them all because I don’t think I have enough followers to get through all of them anyway. This is also because I haven’t posted for a while and would like to remind people I’m still alive. I’ve got a couple of drafts going, but they’re not fully thought out yet.
Anyway, here goes!
1.  Who was the last person you held hands with?
Does the Ama Namin prayer in church count, because if so, I’d have to say my brother.
2.  Are you loud, outgoing, or shy?
Shy if I’m not comfortable around people. Outgoing if I am.
3.  Who are you looking forward to seeing?
Well, this blog is dedicated to a certain someone.
4.  Are you easy to get along with?
I’d like to think so. 
5.  Have you ever given up on someone, but then gone back to him/her?
I’ve given up on a lot of people, and I have never gone back to any of them. 
6.  If you were drunk, would the person you like take care of you?
I should hope so.
7.  Do you think you’ll be in a relationship two months from now?
I don’t think two months is enough to get to know someone before being in a relationship, so even if I do meet someone today, the answer will still be no.
8.  Who from the opposite gender is on your mind?
My very busy friend who I wish I could hang out with more often.
9.  Does talking about sex make you uncomfortable?
Me, no, but the company I keep does, so we rarely talk about it.
10.  Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with?
That same busy friend. I spent the last Saturday just lounging around in her room.
11.  What does your most recent text say?
“Medyo nga. Baby steps. Haha.”
Have fun figuring that out. 
12.  How do you feel about abortion?
Fun fact #1: I’m a BS Biology graduate from a Catholic University and I was still studying at the same time the RH Bill issue was at its peak. We weren’t allowed to openly support it as long as we wore our school uniforms. I was in third year, and our Embryology professor defied that rule and supported it anyway and taught us why. I don’t remember the specifics scientifically, but what I remember was that abortion should be fine but only up until a certain point, but only because this considers the health of the mother. 
13.  Do you like big crowds of people?
Hell, no!
14.  Do you believe in luck and miracles?
Yes!
15.  What good thing happened this summer?
I got a raise in my salary.
16.  Would you kiss the last person you kissed again?
I kiss my parents on the cheek before I leave for work and when I come home, so yes.
17.  Do you think there is life on other planets?
Statistically speaking, yes.
18.  Do you still talk to your first crush?
Not as often as I like, but yes, she and I still do talk when we happen to bump into each other. Yes, she.
Fun fact #2: She was the very first person I came out to in high school, but we’ve known each other since 1st grade, and I had a crush on her during 5th grade.
19.  Do you like bubble baths?
Haven’t tried it yet. We always have showers. Even if I do find bathtubs, I’m always to tall to fit in them comfortably.
20.  Do you like your neighbors?
Not really. They have kids and those kids cry sometimes at godforsaken hours in the night.
21.  What are your bad habits?
Is eating ice after I finish my drink a bad habit? I’ve also been told that taking a shower immediately after I get home from work is a bad habit.
22.  Where would you like to travel?
Denmark and Iceland
23.  Do you have trust issues?
Yes. My default setting is to trust, and if that trust is broken, then it’s gone.
24.  Favorite part of your daily routine?
That shower after I arrive from work.
25.  What body part are you most uncomfortable with?
Fun fact #3: I have a birthmark on my left arm. It’s not that I’m uncomfortable with it, but I often forget it’s there and it’s very noticeable for other people. I get uncomfortable when people point it out.
If not that, then my height. For a very introverted person, standing a head taller than most people is extremely uncomfortable. I get noticed with and without my presence, like “oh, there’s the tall guy”, or “where’s the tall guy”? 
26.  What do you do when you wake up?
During weekdays, after I turn off my alarm, I change to workout clothes and exercise for around 40 minutes. During weekends, depends on what time I wake up, but usually I’ll start playing Guild Wars 2, because that’s North American prime time, and I get to do stuff that I can’t usually do.
27.  Do you wish your skin was lighter or darker?
I like the color of my skin. I guess it could be lighter, but I don’t really care either way.
28.  Who are you most comfortable around?
The same handful of people I’ve known since high school.
29. Have any of your ex’s told you they regret breaking up?
If I play my cards right, I won’t have an ex, but for now, let’s label this as TBD.
30. Do you ever want to get married?
I do. The church and the government not so much.
31. Is your hair long enough for a pony tail?
No. I like my hair short. My hair gets really wavy when it gets too long and it’s hard to comb.
32. Which celebrities would you like to have a threesome with?
Scott Hoying and Matthew Daddario. 
33. What do you spend most of your money on?
Bills. *cries in corner*
34. Do you play sports?
My friends and I just started playing badminton regularly. I hope we can continue doing it as a weekly thing, but knowing my very busy friends, that just might not happen.
35. Would you rather live without TV or music?
I already don’t watch TV, technically speaking. But if I had a choice between TV shows and music, I would drop TV shows. I need music. It helps calm me.
36. Have you ever liked someone and never told them?
Don’t we all?
37. What do you say during awkward silences?
Nothing. I would let the silence continue.
38. Do you think age matters in a relationships?
Physical age, no. Maturity, yes.
39. What are your favorite stores to shop in?
Booksale, Fully Booked, Powerbooks.
40. What did you want to do after high school?
Fun fact #4: I originally wanted to be a marine biologist, which is why I took BS Biology. But in college, Bio subjects were my weakest subjects. As in I would do very well in my Math/Chem/Literature classes yet barely pass my Bio classes. I realized that it might not be for me. I wanted to shift to Sociology or Behavioral Science, but my parents didn’t think I would get a good job from that. So I weathered it out and graduated in the same course anyway. I did try to find a job related to my course though. In the end, I found my love for the written word, and got a job in editing. Haven’t looked back since.
If I could give any of the young Tumblr bloggers here some advice, I’d say don’t worry too much about your course or your future. Use your college experience to find out more about yourself and the things you’re passionate about. Five to ten years after graduation, nobody will give a fuck what your course was, as long as you’re doing a good job. Just make sure that job is something you love.
41. Do you believe everyone deserves a second chance?
Yes, but no more than that.
42. If you’re being extremely quiet, what does it mean?
Look up Tranquil Fury in TVTropes.org.
43. Do you smile at strangers?
Not really. Which is why people usually think I’m unapproachable or intimidating. The height doesn’t help with this.
44. Trip to outer space or bottom of the ocean?
Outer space. I don’t know why, but the ocean kinda scares me.
45. Do you want a roommate?
I already sleep in the same room as my two brothers so no thanks. I also help pay rent, so moving out will just add more expenses for me. 
46. What are you paranoid about?
That I’ve said something offensive or hurtful without even knowing. My humor tends to be a mix of sarcasm and wit, so there are times my intention gets misunderstood.
47. What was the meanest thing someone ever said to you?
My friends and I were playing this game called Disturbed Friends (look up the game if you want to know the rules), and they basically said that I would screw up raising a child.
48. The nicest thing someone ever said to you?
That I would make someone incredibly happy someday.
49. Have you done something recently that you hope no one ever finds out about?
Yes. Let’s leave it at that.
50. What language do you want to learn?
I took Spanish in college and want to continue learning the language someday.

First Year Med Tips
What’s a more pleasing way to start again than posting something quite relevant to the community right? (hahaha) 
Anyway, are you an incoming first year med student? or do you have any plans to enter med school soon? well, you might have stumbled on the right post (lol, not really, but humor me please? hahaha)
To start off, I wanted to post something like this because I know how much of a stress it is to start into something without any idea on what’s totally going on. And because I was once in your shoes, struggling to have any some sort of information on what med school really is and just plain tips or advice from someone. 
Disclaimer: I may have passed my first year but it doesn’t mean that I’m in the top 10 of my batch. I’m just your regular struggling med student and in no way a genius (like some of my classmates) but I could offer you some advice or tips to cope up with med school here in the Philippines as an incoming first year student and to show you a glimpse on what to really expect. 
First Year Subjects:
Basic Biomedical Sciences
Gross Anatomy
Bring your reference book for your dissection just so you wouldn’t get lost along the way. I highly recommend Netter’s as an amazing reference. Also, if you can, invest in a 100 pcs glove box for your group, as well as masks it would be less a hassle to buy one every session (trust me, saves you more time to work ahead at the laboratory). Label your materials (it will be used for the whole year, label them so that they would not get lost and for you not to buy another one when you lost your scalpel or etc.)
Histology
Read in advance your laboratory exercise, it will be helpful for you. It would also guide you on what slides you’ll take. Research ahead on what the slides look like so you’ll have an idea on what to label and draw ahead. Don’t forget to bring your coloring materials. Color pencils, highlighters, fine liners help a lot in making sure your drawings look good.
Basic Neurosciences
Be familiar with everything, during laboratory, make sure that you know where the gyrus and sulcus are. Don’t forget to take a photo of everything and label on them. 
Phyisology
If you’re a visual and audio learner like me, it would be helpful for you to search up some videos in the internet after a lecture. NinjaNerd is a very helpful reference for your physio topics. (istg!! I owe 50% of my learnings from him)
Embryology
If you go to the same school as me, read on the chapter summary. It will help you have a general idea about it. Reading the whole chapter helps you familiarize but the summary is enough. 
Basic Radiology
Review the powerpoint slides by your lecturers! Take some time to actually read and review them not just during your exams, this will help you a lot since they are mostly diagrams and scans. 
Family and Community Medicine 1
- Go to class. Don’t take this for granted. The subject is really nice to keep you grounded on what are really the main issues in the community that are related to health. It will help you appreciate the work of a family and community physician. You will be mostly doing paper works in this so team up with classmates who are actually hardworking and that helps you in work load. 
Patient-Doctor Relations 1
- This is actually super fun. You get to have your first hospital exposure but only at the out-patient department. You will be taught on how to take a patient’s history. And if you are a socially awkward person like me (whose premed is biology and have no background on this) try to observe your classmates (especially the nurses) and if possible ask help if you have any difficulty. It will only be difficult at the first try but once you get the hang of it then you’ll be able to ace it. It’s not always that you get to take a patient’s history tho, it would only be 2-4 times this year, but hey it’s still good practice right? Try to follow the format given by your professor and do not just rely on your classmate’s history taking, make it your own so you’ll know how to make one. 
1. Don’t be absent. Attendance in college may not be a huge deal for some universities but in med school? it is HUGE. (at least in my school) Attendance is checked every activity and every lecture (trust me, I was the class beadle). The reason why I tell you this is that, it will help a lot on your image to your professors. It shows that you are serious enough to attend your classes. (Even if you think you’ve covered this topic in your undergrad, still attend your classes, you’ll never know what things will your lecturer emphasize and possibly where he/she get questions for your exams)
2. Take notes. Lectures in Med school usually span for 1.5-3 hours depending on what the topic is all about. To keep yourself awake, one tip would be to take down notes, (may it be in pen or paper / electronically with your ipad or laptop!) trust me, it will help you during finals or exams to know what were the things emphasized by your lecturer.
3. Participate and Perform in Laboratories. Most of the subjects under BBS have laboratories (except for embryology). Try to make sure that you know every exercise and that you would not waste your laboratory period. This is because this will help you during your OSCEs or your Objective Structured Clinical Examinations. 
4. Make your Small Group Discussions interactive. Use visual aids, like powerpoints, flashcards, quiz bowls, etc. Some facilitators may not be the fun type but most of the facilitators would appreciate on you simplifying the topic for your groupmates (BUT please make sure not to skip on important details). 
5. Plot your school activities and exams. Med School is very fast paced, you tend to have long quizzes every monday and sometimes it gets really draining.That’s why I highly suggest to take note and plot in your calendar when will your bimonthlies start, this would give you an idea on how many days there is left before you start reviewing for it. 
6. Always take a photo and label! I’ve said this once, and I will say it again. Don’t be a lazy ass (like me, who only do this when I feel like it TT)  This is applicable to your laboratories, especially in histology and anatomy. When you have your lab exercise, always make sure that you get the slide that your teacher emphasized, have a photo of every slide and label it on that night. trust me. this will help you in your practical exams. And don’t forget to ask for help especially to your professors and classmates. 
7. Find an outlet. It would get really suffocating at times when you are bombed with all these school works. And so I suggest to find an outlet, go to the gym, watch a youtube video or two every once in a while. So that you wouldn’t feel too choked by all these academic stress. 
8. Keep all your notes by Bimonthly. Trust me on this, buy a big envelope and place all your notes and transes once the bimonthlies are over. This would really help you for finals so that you wouln’t be looking for all your scattered notes and print them again. Save the environment. 
9. You don’t need to buy all your books. If you know someone from the upperclassmen, ask for a pdf copy of your books. The books really cost around 3-5,000 pesos each and it would be a pain in your wallet or parent’s wallet. (Or if you can afford it then it’s also alright with me tho hehe) But for me, you don’t really need to buy all of them, if you don’t want to. Befriend an upper classmen or two then ask for a pdf.
10. You are not alone. (oooh scary jk but you get me right?) You are still at an adjusting phase. First year brings a shock to most people on how med school really works. And I guess a good advice that I could tell you is that you are not alone. Your classmates and friends are also going through this. Everyone is struggling in med school (I still am) and that’s ok. You’ll find your groove soon enough (hopefully me too). Don’t be in a rush and don’t pressure yourself too much, just take things one day at a time. One task at a time. There will be days that you feel so bad that you don’t want to do anything and that’s ok, find someone to talk to, vent out what your feeling, contact your mentor, go to the gym, bake a cake, then move on. Make your bad day into good.
I’m not sure if these are enough but if you do have any questions feel free to dm me. And don’t forget that you are still a work in progress. Things will get really rough and that is because you are growing to become a skilled and good physician. If you’re not struggling then maybe you’re not really learning? (lol what? hahahaha idk) but really, just trust the process. You can do it! I believe in you!

What We Are Reading: a conversation with Hannah and Emily
The term “ecological” has been defined as “relating to or concerned with the relation of living organisms to one another and to their physical surroundings.” In the spirit of being in relation to all that we’re swirling in right now, we (Emily and Hannah) are sharing some of the conversations and ideas we’ve had leading up to Ecological Bodies about articles that we’ve been reading and thinking about. Everything is in relation to everything…
“The body is not a thing, an anatomical substrate; it is a performance, a function, a behavior. Soul does not have a body, it is body; body does not have a soul, it is soul...Even your skeleton and brain (organs that for example are nearly structuralized to death and physical substance) are ‘on the move’, are processes. I learnt from the embryo: Motion is primary, form is secondary. Forms comes out of motion (and not the reverse as reductionistic thinkers always propagate) and in that motion a behavior is performed.”
Jaap van der Wal, MD, PhD. in  “The Embryo in Us – A phenomenological Search for Soul and Consciousness in the prenatal Body”  
EJ: [Jumping right in] For me, this article brings to mind how we are indoctrinated in this capitalist society with the concept of a top down approach--the common perception that our brain is responsible and guiding the rest of our body. This brings up the parallel idea that political leaders and those with the most capital are responsible and dictating the rest of society.
Jaap Van Der Wal proposes a reorganization in the way we understand leadership in our body. Instead of the brain guiding the other parts, he proposes autonomy in each region, and each region being in conversation. He proposes that the brain exists in tangent with all other organs, not superior to them. I love this because it makes me think of our socio-political structure as well. If we didn’t think of our bodies as hierarchical structures that are predisposed by genes, could we think of our place in the world less vertically organized? I know that is a lofty statement. How can power be redistributed to better empower individuals? This can extend beyond physiology.
All the readings that have directly informed Ecological Bodies and this week of inquiry we’re facilitating seem to deal heavily with the concept of noticing what the fuck is happening around you. We (you and I) are all part of these systems and play into them in many ways. How do we actually observe what is going on? This is the question that keeps coming to my head. So often we go through participating with the status quo, oblivious to how we are contributing to the hierarchies around us. What is the space that allows questioning and reconsidering, and how is this cultivated?
HK: This article that you shared by Aurora Westfelt we discussed, “From oppressive structures on the dance floor to a world of dance,” is reaching for it. Like Westfelt, we have a lot of reservations about the dominate culture of the Contact Improvisation, and many other somatic practices. I appreciate her deconstruction of CI as a glorified “safer space, in which we can be physically close.” She’s speaking from her lived experience and identity, while doing her best to name the fact that we cannot step out of our positioning on the “capitalist, sexist, racist, hierarchical systems we are immersed in” when we step into these dance spaces. (FYI: For a deeper dive into this subject, I also recommend this article from an issue of Contact Quarterly. It features a conversation between mayfield brooks and Karen Nelson about IWB, improvising while black.)
However, I also have questions about the theory Westfeld brings in at the end of her article, as she seeks a way forward, so to speak. While the theorists she references--Nina Björk and Judith Butler--are wonderful, accessibility to this type of theoretical rhetoric is still an issue. We have to question socially predetermined realities of “what this is about and for whom,” as Westfeld writes. This includes the types of knowledge and theory we intake, given our identities--even the articles we’re talking about now!
I also find this article by Anna Kegler instructive, particularly as it gestures to the notion of the “spectrum” of oppression. She’s specifically talking about racism in this article.
So, if I believe there’s a binary of oppressiveness, and if I believe I’m on the “not-oppressive” side of the binary, then I can just opt out of doing that work. Yay me! But, if I see myself as sitting on as spectrum of oppressiveness, I have no choice but to acknowledge this positioning, my implicit participation in hierarchies of oppression, and I must keep listening, keep noticing repercussions, keep questioning, keep adjusting, keep decentering myself and my experience, keep modifying thought patterns, and keep modifying behavior, etc.
This idea of a spectrum also brings me back around to the import of practice and process. I cannot shake the thought that “products” and “outcomes” are so often dictated or mandated by the constraints of our capitalist society, and perhaps every outcome we create for ourselves, every commodity we create (even our dances!), and every idea we share is actually just a forced moment in time. In talking with my collaborator Zena Bibler about this phenomenon, she aptly described it as “artificial freeze-frames within more continuous time.” Every moment is a point on a lifelong spectrum of learning, and learning from that learning.
And, maybe “learning” is actually the REAL WORK, not creating products and outcomes. Maybe this, in turn, becomes an invitation to change how we weigh everything in our lives: to “redistribute” (as you’ve mentioned above), to loosen our desperate grasp on some things, especially on our narrow definitions for the world around us, and to hold more tightly to other things--which we might be overlooking. In my lived experience right now, and what I’m working with, these ideas also feel resonant.  
EJ: I also really appreciate the way Anna Kegler describes the danger of binary thinking. Thinking in binary dismisses and disregards all the space in between [and assumes that the two poles have value as foundational categories]. That space of uncertainty that requires self-reflection and consideration of multiple experiences colliding. Why is it that we are so uncomfortable with uncertainty?
Near the end of Jaap van der Wal’s interview he talks about addiction to causality. As humans we easily attach to a reason or an excuse for the way something is, whether this be in our own bodies, or in society at large. I’ve so often heard and read sentiments like, “I have this condition, because it runs in my family” or “discrimination happens because of the history in our country.” Those overly simplified causes and outcomes make us less individually accountable. Sure, those reasons might contribute to the current situation, but other factors, including those we are personally responsible for and participate in, also need to be considered.
Jaap van der Wal primarily discusses the fascination with genes, and how we point to our inherited DNA--structures as causes for anatomical, physiological, and psychological attributes. In the scientific community, my understanding is, embryology and genetics were, at one point, part of the same field. When genome mapping took off, the field split and genetics was given precedence and more funding because of the measurable  answers that were coming out of that research.
Now, these fields are merging again. How genes are expressed has much to do with environment, and embryological development, and life post-embryo. Phenomena are a result of various causes and conditions intersecting.
HK: I love it! I’m thinking about your question: “Why is it that we are so uncomfortable with uncertainty?” I wonder if it's because we’ve all internalized a twisted definition of comfort as something imperative to our lives. Uncertainty seems to be the thing that sustains life! Your question also brings me back to some of the conversations we’ve been having around naming--specifically in relationship to Luciana Achugar’s dance research through the Pleasure Project--and what it means to revel in the uncertainty about what surrounds us.
Achugar says that “naming” (e.g. that is a tomato!) without “understanding” (e.g. what is a tomato?) is a “colonial act” that halts our experiencing. Perhaps the act of “naming” something as a discrete and comprehensive phenomenon is a way to hold onto expertise, power, influence, and capital--not to mention, a way to create chasms of distance between human lived experience and everything surrounding it. Kegler is really getting at this in her aforementioned article, where she discusses the way specific terminology persists in coddling white experience.
Someone, though I can't remember who (maybe Chrysa Parkinson), said: “If I am over comprehended and over identified I can only be one thing.” Jaap van der Wal would say that we’ve been over comprehended and over identified as beings that exist in and “own” their bodies--bodies are a means to an end. In light of this, he argues that we--our very souls--are our bodies. Everything that happens to our bodies, happens to our souls, and if this is true, then life is not a means to an end!
In this way, I suppose we are working to redefine a sort of value system for ourselves, less predicated in fixity, more in fluidity, less comfortable with stability, more interested in learning from uncertainty. I’m excited where these ideas will take us, and how they will be informed and transformed as we continue researching and sharing and listening and adjusting to everything (in relation to everything!).

Somehow, I passed this semester and I want to talk about some more personal stuff under the cut, because I always wanted this blog to be a more personal experience, not just reblogged pictures of pretty study spaces. I just needed to get some things off my chest.
Somehow, I passed, but I am not sure how. The motto in the header of this blog, per aspera ad astra, has never been more accurate. It means through hardships to the stars. And boy oh boy have I had my hardships this year! 
The 2nd year of med school is considered the hardest in our country. We have to pass all the tough exams - anatomy, histology, embryology, biochemistry, immunology, and physiology. And I know there are some tougher exams ahead of me, but this is the first time we get a taste of what this school is like, because here, the 1st year is literally nothing. If you asked me last year if med school was hard, I’d laugh. Well...
I think it’s okay if I say that I was depressed some three years ago. I was kicked out of school, had no motivation in life... I never wanted to experience that again yet there I was. Last Frebruary, the burn out and the anxiety and stress all combined into a big ol’ pile of sadness. I don’t call it depression now, because I am not diagnosed, but I sure as hell am not okay. It was tough to go to sleep and even tougher to get out of bed. I spent a week before my anatomy exam crying, not eating, and wishing to die. I went there, forgot everything I knew about the sympathetic trunk and I was kicked out. My mum later told me that she was actually afraid for my life - she thought I’d go as far as killing myself, hah... So I scheduled the re-take for the last possible date, spent another week crying and not eating and living on sage tea to calm me a bit... Fortunately, I passed, the exminer was ridiculously nice and all was well.
And then the semester started. Two weeks after the exam I kept waking up every night in the middle of the night in terror of not passing. One night I woke up, jumped to my feet and started walking somewhere before I realised it was dark and it was a dream. Or a nightmare. I literally dreamed of that exam I didn’t pass - the face of the professor who asked me about non-existing arteries and I couldn’t answer. I woke up in tears at least three times. I thought this would seem ridiculous, but even now, to me, it doesn’t. Strange.
I couldn’t focus on the new semester, which was a bitch, because I had to study for tests that we took every week from every subject. I couldn’t. A month into the semester and all I did was lie in bed, sleep, watch Grey’s Anatomy... And somehow, I was passing. I always read the topic right before the test and somehow ended up getting better scores than when I studied and stayed up until 3am. And I couldn’t care less. I passed. My anxiety, stress, and extreme sadness rolled into utter and complete apathy. I just couldn’t find a fuck to give. I remember studying for one of the big physio test in the morning of... and miraculously passing with a great score. And so with the apathy came guilt. Guilt that I don’t actually know what my peers and teachers think I know. Now I know that my brain is actually not as garbage as I thought it was, but then I literally thought I knew nothing. It was awful.
And then, as if it wasn’t enough, my grandpa passed away. It’s been almost a month now and I am still not over it. That week I didn’t study at all. It was the first time someone this close to me had died and I just... I didn’t know what to do. I don’t remember anything from those days but pain. I don’t remember getting up, getting dressed, going to school... I scored the lowest possible passing score on the physio test that week (70%) and the lowest passing score on biochemistry (80%). But I passed.
As I said, I don’t know how. All my grades are better than last semester. I started drawing, procrastinating even more. And still. Today, I finally finished with the biochem and physio practicals. I’m not as sad anymore, but my thoughts aren’t happy. And I have to force myself to study, but I’m doing it. That’s why there are not pretty studying pictures these days. My study space is my messy bed with food and coffee everywhere...
And if you for some unfathomable reason stayed until now and read those whiny words... thank you. And if you by any chance feel the same - beaten, sad, anxious... you can do it. If I, the broken whiny little procrastinator could do it, than you can do it too. It will all get bearable. And then maybe it’ll even get better. But bearable is what we aim for. And maybe a little time off will help ♥

BOOKS TO SURVIVE MEDSCHOOL
Hi! so, uhm, I haven’t really introduce myself properly. But now I will, my name is Sarah and I’m a third year medical student in Indonesia. Personally, medschool was so daunting, but over the years i’ve figured out several books that helped me to jolt down I am currently learning. 
When I entered my second semester, I was overwhelmed by the amount of materials that I needed to understand and memorize in order to be a good doctor (solving case problems) and of course to pass my exam. I felt like studying from slides only does not help me understand the material as a whole. Yet, if I had to read books, it will be too much and I thought I would not have the time to do it. So at that particular semester, I survived by relying on my senior’s lecture notes and slides. I tried reading a chapter of Sherwood but I could not get it (lol). But over the time, I started to adapt myself for reading textbooks and BOY they help A LOT! So just remember to try and never give up in reading textbooks, and read them chunks by chunks. DO NOT try to finish a whole chapter in just one day, or else you’ll be stressed out and pissed at yourself for not being good enough. Chill guys, changes takes time :)
And actually, I’ve been wanting to post about this for quite a few time, but I haven’t had the guts to do so. SOOO HERE IT GOES:
Physiology. I can not stress how important it is to understand how your body works physiologically. Because by understanding the way it works, it will be easier for you to understand the pathophysiology behind a disease. Personally, I love Sherwood for physiology. I think it is well explained and there are always pictures that highlight the important parts of each headings. For review, I use Rapid Review Physiology. ITS SO GOOD GUYS!!!! If you have been slacking all these time and finals are near I suggest you skip Sherwood and read Rapid Review directly. But, other overachieving friends of mine also love Constanzo as it is famous for its A rating in USMLE. I have tried reading constanzo, but I’ve set my heart for Sherwood. <3 ps: I’m using the 9th edition. But if it is too expensive, just buy the previous editions, its all the same inside, they only re-design the book. For practice, BRS Physiology is a good to go. Very analytical, if you can’t do it, its okay, I can’t too most of the time HAHAHAHAHA.
Anatomy. Actually anatomy is always a daunting subject for me, I mean, I tried but its not what I’m good at I guess. For anatomy atlas, I use Netter and Yokochi. I prefer Netter to Sobotta because 1. its cheaper 2. It is less bulky (My sobotta was comprised of 3 different books and its just annoying how I need to switch book if I wanted to see other body parts) 3. it is more detailed (I feel like Sobotta was missing some names of a body part). So I would read the anatomical check list given by the faculty and I would read and try to remember each parts in Netter and practice on Yokochi. Yokochi Atlas gives a realistic picture on what would things appear in cadaver. Because what you see in atlas like Netter and Sobotta are too good to be true. No, your blood vessels are not color-coded blue and red darling like you see in atlas(es). But if you want to understand theoretically where things are located, I suggest Gray’s Anatomy for Students or Clinical Anatomy (Blackwell Publishing). They also explain about clinical abnormalities that may happen in a certain organ, so you would have a sense the purpose of learning anatomy. PS: Yokochi has their own flash card too!! Good for practice!
Histology. Yay back to one of my fave subject. I use Junquiera for histology. Although my professor liked and used Gartner a lot, I prefer junquiera as it has pictures (ofc duh) with summaries just below the picture or in a box somewhere nearby, so you don’t have to read the whole thing, but you should. I mean it would take me two or three times reading to understand what the book is talking about and things started to make sense to me. But its all okay now.
Pathology. I use Robbin’s Basic Pathology and Rapid Review Pathology. Sometimes, there is just too much information in Robbin’s Basic Pathology and most of the time, I’m running out of time, hence I’ll retreat to Rapid Review Pathology. Its a concise version of Robbin’s Basic Pathology. Just keep in mind, in order to solve a pathology case problem, you need to understand how did it happen (the pathophysiology), the signs and symptoms of each disease, the risk factors and who is at a greater risk for that particular disease.
Biochemistry. Rapid Review Biochemistry is my go to book for biochemistry. I find Marks’ and Harper’s are a bit too overwhelming. 
Embryology. The Developing Human by Keith L. Moore and Langman’s Medical Embryology are the two books I used during embryology module. I switch between these two, but I guess I liked The Developing Human by Keith L. Moore more. There is also BRS Embryology for Qbank.
Immunology. I guess by finishing the whole Abbas Basic Immunology book will help to save you during Immunology? If you are interested in immunology, you can also read Abbas Cellular and Molecular Immunology.
Internal Medicine. Harrison is hands down best internal medicine books ever. I know, I know, there are too much information and it seems a little bit daring at first, but its okay, you’ll make it through. At first, I also had a hard time understanding, but when I put my efforts and continue reading, I began to see everything clearly and I don’t even have to write things down to remember the pathophysiology behind a disease. 
Pharmacology. The two most important books are Katzung and Goodman and Gillmann. But man, they’re a bit too much information so I use Katzung & Trevor's Pharmacology Examination and Board Review instead. Its a short version of the Basic and Clinical Pharmacology by Katzung, plus there are questions at the end of each chapter to make sure that you understand what you have read previously. Sometimes, I even found a couple of the questions here during my exams.
Microbiology. I use Murray’s and Jawets for microbiology. Go for Jawets for a more concise version. There is also BRS Microbiology and Immunology for practice.
Crash Course. Crash course are a great series of books! I was sent by Elsevier the Crash Course Pharmacology and I love it! Although, its a bit too concise for a module review tho’. I guess crash course is better for those who are prepping for USMLE or UKMPPD here in Indonesia. Not to mention the small size of the book makes it easier to carry anywhere around.
I guess that is it from me, I’ll updated when I find more books in the future.
Just remember, do not give up, beginning is always the hardest.

22 May 2020
So the funniest thing happened today. First some bg info tho.
1. We have 6 subjects, and we only get written assignments for 2- biochemistry and physiology.
2. For both of these, our teachers give us minimum 2 days to upload the work.
3. Anatomy and DADH teachers stopped giving us assignments, but anatomy ma'am gave us one today- a little lengthy one for embryology.
Now, we had our mentors meeting today, and ma'am asked each of us individually if any of us had any problems. And some girls complained that "There is too much work!" They also lied and told ma'am we are given only one day for each assignment. They also said they wanted an intimation for the classes one day prior. and I was like, BITCH YOU GOT A WHOLE EXCEL DOC WITH THE TIMETABLE ONE WEEK EARLIER! And when ma'am asked how many assignments we typically had in one day, they said 3. Like, seriously!? You have only one glass per day, and assignments you get THREE!? Anyway, I was just quietly rolling my eyes, because I didn't want to come off as the dick who sucks up to the teacher. Ma'am was completely fooled, and said she would raise that point up with the other teachers. But then she asked us to first talk to teachers on our own too, lest they take offense. She asked us who would represent the case. And automatically everyone said MY NAME!
Well, I tried to be nice my amigos. I told ma'am no. But then she asked if I agree with my classmates. And i said, "Ma'am i am gonna get into a lot of trouble for this, but no, I don't. " And guess who agrees now immediately? The other guy who had a scholarship. I told ma'am that maybe these people have a problem with time management, and also told the truth about deadlines and everything else. So now they start acting all fancy- one said, "I complete everything before time, but it's just too lengthy!" And I was like, "Um, sure. But you selected a tough course too." That put an end to it. I couldn't stop laughing tho. I mean, these ppl think they can sleep till noon and party the rest of the day, and then when they don't get jobs, they tell people, "There are no jobs in this field!" Ugh.

6 Things You Didn't Know About "Three-Parent Babies"
New Post has been published on https://kidsviral.info/6-things-you-didnt-know-about-three-parent-babies/
6 Things You Didn't Know About "Three-Parent Babies"
MPs have voted in favour of “mitochondrial DNA transfer”, which will allow would-be mothers with unhealthy DNA to use material from a second woman. What does it involve?
UPDATE: the House of Commons has voted in favour of the measure.
A total of 382 MPs voted for it, while 182 voted against. However, would-be parents will not be able to undergo the procedure until it is approved by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA).
1. Calling children conceived using mitochondrial DNA from a female donor “three-parent babies” is a bit of a stretch.

The DNA you think of as making you “you” – the stuff that makes your eyes brown or blue or your hair straight or curly, the stuff that means you can curl your tongue or gives you a dimpled chin – isn’t touched. That’s the DNA in the nucleus of your cell (the pink thing in the picture above), which consists of 46 X-shaped segments called chromosomes, or 45 X-shaped ones and one Y-shaped one if you’re a boy.
What is replaced in “three-parent babies” is the DNA in our mitochondria, tiny little “organelles” within the cell that provide energy – they’re often called the “powerhouse of the cell”, or the battery. They’re the bits in red in the picture above.
There are more than 20,000 genes in your nuclei. By contrast, there are 37 in your mitochondria, and the two don’t ever mix.
2. Mitochondrial disease can be horrible, and this procedure could prevent it in children.
There might not be many genes in the mitochondria, but when they go wrong, it can be devastating. Mitochondrial disease can lead to diabetes, blindness, deafness, learning difficulties, muscle wastage, and early death. The battery in your car may not the most important bit, but when it goes wrong, the car won’t start.
And because the mitochondria are present in every cell — all 100 trillion or so in the body — it is impossible to replace them, except right at the moment of conception.
Sarah Wollaston, a Conservative MP and medical doctor, told BuzzFeed News: “This isn’t about wanting a child who’s more intelligent, more beautiful, has a particular eye colour or a different kind of personality. This is about trying to save children from a really hideous disease.”
3. Mitochondria used to be bacteria.

Lynne Margulis, a biologist, suggested in the 1960s that mitochondria used to be free-living bacteria and joined forces with the cells of our ancestors about 2 billion years ago. This is now the accepted hypothesis. For one thing, it explains why mitochondria have DNA of their own.
4. If MPs vote in favour of allowing the technique today, Britain will be the first country in the world to have approved it explicitly.
Other countries have laws that could allow this sort of treatment — the USA doesn’t specifically ban it, for instance, although it would be unlikely to get past the health regulator. Lots of other countries have lax or non-existent laws on this subject. But Britain will be the first country to have had a proper parliamentary debate to decide whether science, ethics, and public opinion is behind the move. And in all likelihood we will then be the first country to go ahead with it.
We’ve been pioneers of technology like this before — specifically in vitro fertilisation, or IVF. Louise Brown, the first “test tube baby” (actually conceived in a Petri dish), was born in Oldham to a couple who’d been trying to conceive for nine years.
Now, about 50,000 women have IVF in Britain every year, and it is estimated that the procedure has led to 5 million births worldwide. That’s a lot of happy families that otherwise wouldn’t have existed.
“Decades ago there was a hugely controversial debate [over IVF], and a lot of the same issues were raised, but would we really want to reject IVF now?” said Wollaston. “Of course I understand there are people who feel profoundly that anything that involves a kind of genetic manipulation would be part of a slippery slope. But there’s always going to be a first time for using this technology, and this has been debated now for seven years.”
5. Mitochondrial DNA is only passed down through mothers.

Sperm are tiny little things. The competition between them is so ruthless that there’s no spare capacity: A sperm is just a powerful swimming tail and a sort of genetic warhead stuffed with DNA. But eggs are much bigger, and contain the equipment required to build a new human – not just (half) the nuclear DNA, but all the rest, including mitochondria.
That means it is possible to trace female ancestry back using mitochondrial DNA, which, even as the nuclear DNA is mixed and chopped and changed, remains the same – barring mutations – throughout the generations. It was using mitochondrial DNA that scientists were able to discover when and where the woman who is the most recent common ancestor of all modern humans lived. “Mitochondrial Eve” (as she’s known, although she wasn’t the first woman to have lived) was probably born between 100,000 and 200,000 years ago, in east Africa.
6. A yes vote in parliament would not mean the procedure starts taking place immediately.
There are understandable concerns over the risks of any new procedure, especially ones involving babies. But as Mark Henderson, head of communications at the biomedical charity the Welcome Trust, told BuzzFeed News: “There are uncertainties, as with any new treatment. But the risks are generally considered by scientists to be low, certainly compared to the known risks of having a child with mitochondrial disease.”
More importantly, he said, a yes vote would not mean the end of scrutiny. Parliament is voting on the general direction of travel, informed by the science and public opinion, and would then hand over detailed regulation of the science to the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA). The HFEA would look at the state of research and say whether or not the procedure is safe yet to carry out on humans. It could be that it says more research is required. Parliament will not be required to vote again, but until the HFEA is satisfied, no “three-parent babies” will be born.

We live in a health care system that teaches us only to see the doctor when we are ill or are in pain. The time to keep doing healthy things for yourself is when you feel well. This is preventative wellness care. Our office not only sees many people that suffer with pain and health conditions but also, we see patients that recovered their health and want to maintain it with regular Blair upper cervical chiropractic care. With a little bit of research at the beginning, you can ensure you find a “chiropractor near me” who can help you. Here are six steps to get started.
Step 1: Know How a Good Chiropractor Near You Can Help
Blair chiropractors can help you with many different conditions. However, is you feel well already that is the best time to get your upper neck checked to see if you are in alignment. If not correct it to prevent future health problems. The following conditions have responded well to chiropractic care:

Some chiropractors believe that chiropractic care is the only for pain treatment. Others see chiropractic as a vehicle to improve central nervous system function and as a result allowing the body to recover from whatever it can as best it can. Many patients around the country have received relief and healing from many health conditions by using chiropractic.  While chiropractic is NOT a CURE ALL it is a vital component to one’s health program. When looking for a chiropractor near you, it is important to decide which type of chiropractor is right for you.  While everyone would like to feel better everyone is at a different place in their understanding of health. There are chiropractors who will just “treat” your pain and there are others that will help you recover your lost health through a long-term healing program. As we’ll discuss below, chiropractors will share on their website what they’re most focused seeing in their office. You can get a great idea about a chiropractor’s office by looking at their website.  Many will give a FREE CONSULTATION where they may discuss their philosophies about care so you can find one that matches how you see health care.
Step 2: Understanding Educational Requirements For All Chiropractors
Chiropractors in all 50 states in the U.S. are required to complete a doctor of chiropractic degree (DC) and pass a four-part boards exam following graduation. A typical DC degree follows a course of study to obtain a doctorate of Chiropractic Degree.
Biochemistry, anatomy, physiology, microbiology, pathology, nutrition, public health, embryology, and many other subjects
Philosophy and practice of chiropractic
Research methods and procedures
Ethics, Jurisprudence
Patient care (outpatient clinical care)
Also, most states require up to 24 hours of annual continuing education requirements. These courses are designed to make sure that the practicing chiropractor stays up to date with laws and practice procedures and allows them to delve deeper into a subject that they may focus on.
Depending on how much information a chiropractor posts to their website, they may also list additional certifications or research-areas they’re also qualified in. For example, if you are looking for someone that focuses all their attention on the neck an upper cervical chiropractor is ideal.
Step 3: Ask For Recommendatio​​​ns For a Chiropractor Near Me
WE already mentioned this, however, word of mouth referrals are powerful. If you are lucky enough to have family or friends who regularly visits a chiropractor, ask them for help finding a “chiropractor near me.” A license to practice shows that the doctor has passed tests, however, it does not mean they are skilled.  Chiropractic, like other professions, has competent providers and those that are not.  A word of mouth referral can tell you about their bedside manner and demeanor. It helps to keep in mind what kind of doctor you generally prefer. Whether you like a warm, caring doctor or a capable but business-like doctor, a recommendation from a family member or friend may be able to help.
Step 4: Visit a Trusted Website
In the age of the internet, qualifications, recommendations, and negative reviews (or board censures) are just a click away. Once you have a list of potential doctors, head to one of the following user-sourced websites to check them out:
Yelp
Google Reviews
Rate MD’s
By reading online reviews you can get a pretty good sense of the type of doctor you will be visiting. Also, you will be able to determine the types of conditions and cases the office and doctor typically see. Online research is invaluable.
Step 5: Getting Ready for Your First visit
Once you find a chiropractor near you, get ready for your first visit. Many chiropractic offices have their forms online so you can print them out and have them ready prior to your visit. Make sure that you have a list of questions that you would like answered. Most chiropractors offer a FREE CONSULTATION in their office and during that time you can get your questions answered.
During your initial visit, your chiropractor will take a detailed history, run tests to determine whether you are a candidate for care and then make a recommendation of care. After that usually x-rays are then taken to determine the direction of your spinal misalignments.  Then a precise spinal correction is made and follow up care is designed to check you for it re-occurrence.
What We Do in Our Office- Blair Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care Los Angeles
Blair Chiropractors have a singular goal. To locate, analyze and correct any vertebra in the neck that is out of its normative range of motion at the joint level and causing irritation or interference to the central nervous system. Regardless of what disease, symptom or syndrome the patients has been diagnosed with in order to get well something must be done that increases the body’s own healing capacity.
Blair Doctors run objective tests to determine whether upper neck injury exists. Once it is determined that there is irritation to the central nerve system, joint x-rays are taken to determine their angulation and direction of misalignment. Once determined the information is then used to make a specific correction to the misaligned joint. Once corrected the central nerve system can function better increasing the body’s own healing potential. The patient is then monitored over time to determine whether correction is needed or not. The goal of Blair upper Cervical Care is for the patient to stay in alignment for as long as possible. It is while the patient is clear of central nervous system irritation that healing can occur. We will end this blog with our favorite quote that encapsulates the Blair doctors goal, “Nature needs no help just no interference”. We hope this blog has been put in front of those who need it most. Healing can happen. Do NOT give up.
“Upper Cervical practitioners hypothesize based on their success in addressing many health conditions that the misalignment of the atlas is blocking communication to various parts of the body and thereby affecting the body’s own ability to correct the problem. “
