Reasons I love #neurology
1. 2022 is my 25th year in Neurology. I enjoy this subject many times more than 1998, when I entered this branch as a #resident at @OffCMCVellore I was dissuaded by many of my teachers to take up DM in another specialty but I stuck to Neurology

2. Neurology is vast: If you love reading, there are several topics you can read. There are about 600 common #diseases in Neurology to read about. Newer diseases are being discovered, so there is no dearth of new topics to learn about.
3. History & physical examination are still the most important to arrive at a diagnosis. Whether it is epilepsy, migraine, stroke, Parkinson's disease or Alzheimer's disease, history & physical are more valuable than any investigations. MRI, EEG & EMG contribute but are not final

Inception பாணியில் மற்றுமொரு Sci-fi ஆக்சன் திரைப்படம் தான் இந்த #Coma .

ஒரு கார் விபத்துக்குப்பின் கண் விழித்து எழும் விக்டருக்கு எங்கு இருக்கிறோம் என்ன என்பது புரியவில்லை, ஆனால் அவன் இருப்பது அவன் அறையில் தான். வீட்டை சுற்றி பார்க்கிறான், ஒரு புகைப்படத்தை எடுத்து பார்க்கிறான்
