Is it normal for people to get physical in the OR?
The residents are not the nicest at my site, but they are overworked so I don't take it personally when they are rude to medical students. I try to help them out, but usually they just want me out of their way haha.
The only time I was angry about what a resident was doing was when I was elbowed meta world peace style (google meta world peace and james harden to find out what I'm referring to) when I was trying to do something. Nothing critical was occurring. The attending saw it and was exttttra nice to me following that event and said what I was doing was ok. The nurse asked if I was ok, but I tried to laugh it off but yeah it hurt. I kept my mouth shut after that and I no longer say a word in the OR. I don't even make eye contact with that resident. Even though I no longer speak, the resident continues to berate me following that and I'm getting so close to just losing it on him; however, unlike him, I know how to conduct myself.
The attending asked me if I am enjoying my surgery rotation and I said "Yes it's great!", while in my head I was thinking "I enjoy surgery as much as I would enjoy being run over by a car."
Now I'm running into a problem because I loathe waking up at 4 am just to go to the morning rounds. Before, I had no problem waking up and looked forward to my day, but I literally get sick to my stomach thinking about what the day entails. When I present, I am nervous when that resident is there. I have no clue how to shake it off and get the hell over it.
Surgery has been absolutely horrible.
