This morning was anatomy where we examined the muscles of the hip, thigh and gluteal region. I think we need a new leg. Ours is getting a bit tatty.

Oh yes, and the man with the arm and the eyebrows. Well the arm was not a heart attack (wrong side, wrong symptoms) so I just gave him some Mersyndol (paracetamol/acetaminophen, codeine and a drowsy antihistamine... doxyalamine I think) so that he could sleep last night and told him to go to the doctor today as I had no idea what was wrong and even if I did, it probably needs something doctory. The eyebrows appeared to be fungal. Which is unusual but not unheard of. So I gave him Canestan liquid on the rationale that a) it's an antifungal and hence should kill fungus and b) the liquid form would be less unpleasant in the eyebrows than the cream. And Jan you'll be pleased to know that I did tell him to close the corresponding eye when applying it!

In other news it's a bit chilly and I hate having showers on chilly nights because getting out is very... chilly!
