How can doctors be more aware of patients' rights?

They would be more aware if they actually took the time to read the hospital's mission statement and to read the responsibilities their hospital has to patients and their families/caregivers.

Two girls born the same day and time same room and hospital also had same pop doctor and family but they are not twins?

  • They were not born in the same month so they are not twins okay whoever wrote this they is easy I'm not stupid don't forget the month too
  • They are not twins because their mother gave birth to triplets.
  • You did not say that they had the same mother or that they were born the same year.
  • You've got to be kidding! Is that possible? So how did the mom get two same girls at the same time and date and even mom! They should be twins or else it doesn't make sense at all! Is that true? Could be triplets, two girls and a boy!
  • They could have been two of triplets (or quads, or quints ... or more).

Do doctors were reflectors on their head?

Doctors wear these when they are examining something like your nose. They will position a light behind you, so the reflector shines the light back up your nose so they can see better. Ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialists are thus generally the only ones you will see with them on. Though some interested GPs may still use them.

What do I have to do to find another pain management Dr.. after I was dismissed from my Dr. due to non-compliance?

This is a terrible situation to be in and I feel for you. Being dismissed from PM is not always the fault of the patient. Lots of times circumstances conspire against a patient and they cause the patient to look bad. Whether it's your fault or not, you must now gain the trust of another Pain Management doctor. I believe the only way to do this is to get a referral from a doctor. Unfortunately, in situations like these your word may not be good enough. So you may need someone trustworthy to speak for you. If you have a doctor that can do this for you, ask them to plead your case with the PM doc and see what happens. Do you have a GP? If so, would he/she be willing to treat you for a period of time so you can show compliance long enough to repair any trust issues? Then he/she could go to bat for you with another PM doc.

What do doctors give patients to wake up after surgery?

I'm sure there are many medications that a doctor can give to a patient after surgery, but I know I have been given hyrdocortisone. It is normally given in IV form and is then called Solumedrol. Hyrdrocortisone is a form of Cortisol, which the adrenal glands produce naturally. Cortisol is the hormone that wakes you up in the morning and then again in the middl of the afternoon. Ever have lunch, get sleepy and then suddenly get a burst of energy? That was your body producing about 20mg of Cortisol! So it stands to reason that if your body produces cortisol to wake you up in the morning/afternoon, another form of that hormone will do the same after surgery. Cortisol/Solumedrol directly controls your heartbeat, your respiration, pulse and blood pressure. The more of the hormone in your system, the faster your heart will beat, the faster your lungs will pump and the higher your respiration, pulse and blood pressure. Prednisone is another form of Cortisol, produced in a laboratory and is therefore very pure and very powerful.

Does a doctor need a doctorate degree?

.... to do what, exactly? Be a doctor?

To be called "Dr.", all you need is a doctoral degree. This can take anywhere from six to ten years depending on a number of factors, and can relate to any field of science, not just medicine. Generally speaking, people earn a Bachelors degree first (3-5 years), then a Masters (1-3 years), then their Doctorate (1-4 years).

If you mean what degrees does a medical doctor obtain, that's a be different. A medical doctor starts out by earning a regular, 4-year degree like every other professional. Then comes four years of medical school. Then it depends on if you want to specialize. If you do, it's between 3 and 8 more years learning and working in a hospital before you're fully trained.

What could a swollen lymph node in my right armpit that I've had for over 6 months mean if I also lost 10 pounds in same time unintentionally and don't sleep normally due to studying habits?

There are quite a few things it could be. Usually swollen lymph nodes are a sign that your body is fighting an infection, and from the sounds of it you are stressed out which lowers your immune system. However, if it has been going on for 6 months then it could be a cyst (most are benign). I would go to the doctor and have it checked out to be sure though.
