This medical marijuana story will make you wonder about why more research is not taking place.
And if that's not enough, the before and after photos will blow you away.

Nuggets for June 15
Happy June 15! Since I haven't done a Nuggets section in ages, I thought, why not? I've been reading some really interesting medical stuff for my grad class, and lo and behold, some of my favorite MD bloggers have interesting posts that should be seen.
So here goes, folks. Please enjoy the scenery. There is some very vivid mental imagery here if you really think about these items...just sayin'
Enjoy!
So you have been living in this century for how long now?
ER Doc from Serenity Now Hospital has a great post about a really out there patient who is still figuring out how to use the telephone.
The epitome of tact or Why you should turn off the cellphone in the ICU
Grumpy, one great neurologist (and no, I don't work for him...he's nicer than our boss) has a public service announcement you'd think was obvious.
Never assume...
Last but not least
KevinMD has a couple of posts you shouldn't miss.
Medicine or family first discusses a series of articles running in the NY Times debating if part-time physicians should exist.
And now, since it's bikini season, he discusses a hairy (literally) topic which can have some significant complications.
Stay tuned....more to come.

Nuggets for January 27
Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but it's great inside! Here are a few tidbits of information on the stuff that's happening in my world from the internet and the blogosphere. Enjoy your day whatever the weather!
I ran into this interesting article about PTSD and smoking cessation on Yahoo!News in the Health section.
We don't run into this too often, but Brown-Sequard syndrome is a spinal cord injury that appears every so often on our unit.
It's interesting to read radiology reports on patients, but sometimes, I just have to look all over to figure out what's going on. Here are a few interesting items I've come across lately.
Since I couldn't figure out the acronym, I just went searching and I found out what exactly
IPMN tumors are from this article.
Finally, I found this great Google book on CT scans while I was looking up the definition of punctate cysts at www.m-w.com which now has a medical definitions section you can choose when looking up a word used in medical terminology.
