terrible. Sure wouldn't want to have it happen to me.

My worst experience came from shadowing in high school.Necrotizing fasciitis on a scrotum plus the guy had incontinence problems. Problem two occurred during the visit and got all over the room. The doctor said i turned white. I think i passed out while standing up

Thank you CB.

Necrotizing fasciitis is pretty gross, but gangrene is grosser.


Lol @ maubs. It actually wasn't as bad as I expected it to be. I didn't even feel nauseated. Still wouldn't call it cool, though. Not an experience I wish to repeat.

Hey guys!

I'm currently applying to schools, like everyone else here. I just started a Tumblr that will basically follow the journey (primary, secondary apps, and interviews) into medical school. It's kind of a blog--everything's new to me as well, so I'll post things I find are helpful/interesting--but it's also going to feature user-submitted links, articles, etc.

Please check it out and if you have a Tumblr, please follow!

Looking forward to your guys' input!

Sorry, I didn't think I was spamming. I thought it would be something that would be interesting...

It's like you guys share links so I wanted to share something I want to work on, that you could contribute to as well...

I apologize

How common is necrotizing fasciitis? I thought it was fairly rare but I keep hearing people on SDN talking about seeing cases of it.

My legs are sore from laser tag I obviously need to exercise more, or take laser tag less seriously.

Usually only the immuno-compromised contract it. So its common in that regard...

" The incidence of NF in adults has been reported to be 0.40 cases per 100,000 "

I just like laser tag because it's like I'm in Goldeneye. Years of practice right there.

The sad part is that there wasn't even sauce on it. They just served it alongside an eggroll. That makes it asian, right?
