It might be burnout, but I'm starting to get a bit frustrated by my rotations. I'm still undecided on a field right now and whenever I start to get interested in something I end up getting bored pretty fast. A lot of the path/diseases that draw me to those fields don't come up very often, maybe 5% of cases. The other 95% is bread-and-butter (which is cool too, but gets repetitive.. I can only do so many CHF f/u appts). I enjoy the OR a bit more because even the bread-and-butter cases have subtle anatomical differences that make the case interesting, but I never really thought of myself as a hardcore surgery person. Don't get me wrong; I love medicine and in no way am I thinking of ditching the field. I still love to go to work everyday, but I wonder if every field is like this in one way or another and I should just accept it, or if I should keep checking out other fields till I find one that keeps me interested 100% of the time. Anyone else feel like this?
