End of Week 1

It’s the end of week one. I was up in the pharmacy for clinic this morning. Lots of chronic medications – metformin, glyburide (glibenclamide), simvastatin, amlodipine. The toughest part today was trying to figure out how to provide meds for everyone that needed them when we hardly had enough of anything. It was pretty busy upstairs too. We’re supposed to have one of the PA students up with us, but they keep calling them back down. It’s kind of annoying actually. I really like that everyone is willing to learn from pharmacy and to teach us the clinical/diagnosis aspect of everything they see. But it would be nice to be able to give them more information about pharmacy up in the pharmacy. Hopefully next week is better…

After clinic and finishing up pharmacy work (evals, home meds, etc) we road into town to go to dinner at Grace’s and watch a cultural talent show put on by the highschool teachers. John and Mary Pat and 3 of the nurses joined us for dinner (p.s. major drama within the nursing group). The show was good, very funny, but really long. We were having tons of fun living vicariously through 15 year olds. The show was really sexual though…

Tomorrow we’re doing breakfast at grace’s then heading to Blue Creek/Lubaantun/RioBlanco. Sunday is hopefully still dive day, keep your fingers crossed that Ida is passed by then.

Internet is back in action so I may be able to update more often!

Did I mention that Andy fell last night and hurt his neck, practically broke it actually. He’s been in a soft collar all day, poor guy. Still managed to cook us lunch though.
