I'm not trying to be a troll or anything, but I really am curious as to whether or not any of you have considered what life as an EM doc will be like 25 years from now, when we are all old and have back problems
Do you guys think that the pressure and intensity will be too much? I'm worried that I wont be able to keep up with the excitement when I'm an old lady still working in the ER room. How do older docs deal with the irregular hours? Right now, working twelve hour night shifts doesnt seem much, but I imagine it will be real pain when I'm old and still working long night shifts, and dealing with irregular sleep patterns (which are really tiring on the body and unhealthy). Anyone else worried about this?
Any opinions or insight would be appreciated!
