Intention

I want to get around to posting the lovely blog post in my head about what a wonderful spring weekend I've had....baking, going to a baseball game, eating on my deck again...but instead I am studying for an exam I have Tuesday. It is my last exam before finals. This exam covers these topics:
  • Peripheral Nervous System Disorders & Degenerative disorders including: Guillain-Barre Syndrome, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's Disease), Multiple Sclerosis, Myasthenia Gravis, Muscular Dystrophy, Bell's Palsy & Peripheral Nerve Trauma
  • Head Trauma & Increased Intracranial Pressure including: Contusions, Hematomas & Herniations
  • Brain Tumors
  • Seizures
  • Strokes including: Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIAs),Ischemic Strokes (Thrombosis & Embolism as causes),Hemorrhagic Strokes, & Cerebral aneurysm
  • Metabolic Disorders including: Hyper & Hypo Pituitarism, Diabetes Insipidus & Syndrome of Inappropriate ADH Secretion, Hyper & Hypo Thyroidism (cretinism, Myxedema & Graves Disease), Hyper & Hypo Parathyroidism, Hyper & Hypo Adrenal Cortex Disorders
  • Finally, my favorite: Headaches!
Well, for the amount of time it just took me to type that all in, I should have just wrote the post I intended to.... Maybe tomorrow when I need a break from studying.
