PATIENT DIES IN QUEST FOR STRENGTH, DOCTORS STRIKE WORK.


Mumbai:  In spite of  Bihar Health Minister Ashwini Kumar Choubey's threat last week to cut off the hands of junior doctors if they go on strike, the shameless doctors across the state have once again gone on a flash strike accusing patients of perennially cursing their good handwriting. The decision was taken by the Doctor's Association following an attack on a colleague Dr.V.I.Agra’wala when his patients died after consuming more than the prescribed amount of Sildenafil.

Patients in past have made several allegation that what doctors write is not intended for the public to see but only for themselves and their peers. "The way 'Normal' people write is decipherable amongst all because everyone knows what to look for. The illegible doctor handwriting is 'Made Not Born'. How could anyone get through college far less medical school writing so badly?," asked Ganpat Shah who too has been taking treatment for erectile dysfunction.

“Why hold the innocent Doctors responsible when the patient’s wife wanted more?”, argued Dr.Har’dick, the secretary of the Doctor's Association.

Hearing about the outrage in heaven through Faking News, Steve Jobs offered to develop a software called  'I-Rx' where standard printed prescription could be written by verbal commands, but protesting doctors disagreed to using technology stating their prescription changes frequently depending on the gifts they get from the medical representatives.

“How can the doctor’s be so heartless? At least the Emergency Departments should be running. I’m getting dark and I’m worried”, said worried Dharavi resident Isratunissa. In view of the strike, many ICU patients were forced to sign the DAMA form  (Discharge against medical advice) and packed home. Unconfirmed reports also claimed that few rioting doctors stole the ‘Anatomical Snuff Boxes’ from the pharmacy after scaring the pharmacist with their claw hand.

Municipal Union of Hospital Services (MUHS) has now decided to make Doctors sit for a handwriting exam from 2013 before issuing graduation degrees to make sure that they can write something readable by the general public and not just by the chemist.

A Few Doctor Handwriting Tips from Faking News: Doctor's Lounge
  • Abbreviate - It's much faster to write 'SOB' than 'shortness of breath'.
  • Write small - Distance takes time so writing tiny saves time.
  • Skip vowels - Can u rd ths sntnce? Most sentences can be read without vowels.
  • Write the first two or three letters legibly then Scrawl. Doctors use the same words over and over so it only takes one or two letters in context to recognize a specialized word eg.

THE FLASHBACK


Life is so beautiful and I feel blessed to be who I am…It has been an awesome 25 years of life going through all sorts of ups and downs but the spirit is still high and I’m just loving its every phase now…I’m doing what I always loved, Emergency Medicine along with the writing, guitar, tennis and the little meditation I always do.

Looking back into time, my entire life moves in front of me in flashback which brings a smile to my face and few tears too. The following are the random most memorable highlights of this awesome journey.

1.Driving at speed of 170 km/hr while coming back from work and feeling the adrenalin rush. Driving surely will always remain my first love.
2. Jogging every morning on Modak Sagar Dam during my rural posting with arms outstretched and feeling the breeze…..It sure was heavenly.
3. Starting Faking News: Doctor’s Lounge…It makes me smile so much, brought me more acclaim and recognition and pushes me further for pursuing imaginative and creative awesomeness.
4. Blogging at odd hours past midnight being all psychotic....messimerizing.
5. Riding 100-150 kms  per day on my way to Vaitarna, Khardi and near by places.
6. The hugs, smiles and tears shared with many patients.

12. Taking to my Grandfather, holding his hand and kissing him on his forehead 2 days before his death.
13. Arranging the 1st alumni party and bringing together around 200 ex students for the first time.
14. Reading Arun’s article on me ( Faking News ) and laughing so much.
15. Sleeping with my 2 young dear cousins hugging me tightly from either side.
16. My dad just before his bypass surgery telling my mom, “Hanuman Baba sab theek karenge”…even today it brings tears to my eyes.

20. Running from the college Boys common room to Kings circle station crying all throughout after knowing my dad had a heart attack.
21. Participating in Bombay Medical Congress in final year…. and celebrating the team spirit although we did not win in spite of being the truly deserving.
22. Playing my acoustic guitar in dim light and enjoying the loneliness.
23. Playing with my cousins Kartik and Kaustubh and clicking their photographs.
24. Participating in a rally after the Mumbai attack, standing on divider at Gateway of India and shouting slogans against politicians and Pakistan.
25. Each and every day spent at my native place, “Khekra” a small town in U.P…..they are my readily available happy thoughts. Any time ever I feel low in life, I just think about my grand parents, gardening, cycling, skating, cricket in the huge house we have there.

Well, needed to pen down the important ones so I can smile reading this later in life….I’m sure there are plenty of memorable moments more to come and I will be waiting to welcome them with arms wide open.

ROCK ON 2 TITLE TRACK.



With the movie being shelved and no response from the music director either, I guess it was time to LEAK the title track of Rock On 2 which I had written...Will wait for Band Ignition to do the Honors on their come back tour in future some day.....Guys, this one is for you !!

Ruki Ruki zindagi ki rahon mein
Hasin hain, khushi hain, tu hai, bahon mein

Basse ho dil mein tum aise
Din bhar hum hain taraste

Teri Nazar hai jaadu
Chipi mann mein justju
Kya kahe tumhe dil ki yeh baat

Rock on....ooo...Rock on

NEW MEDICAL DEVELOPMENTS TO LOOK COOL, CARDIOLOGISTS FEEL THE HEAT.

Mumbai: In a planned outrage against 6 pack abb-ed and 24-36-24 figure conscious actors yesterday, city cardiologists protested in front of gay Shah Rukh Khan’s bungalow ‘Mannat’ demanding compensation from the rich and famous for eating into their business.

People in general, both old and young have now become more health conscious sweating it out while stalking the opposite sex in the gym or at jogger’s park, resulting in a decrease in the number of future potential ‘customers’ pointed out a cardiologist who did not wished to be named. “Earlier I used to admit panicky patients with gastritis in ICCU, starting them on placebo IV drips and discharging the next day after running them on all tests including all routine, Malaria, Dengue, Widal, Triple H ( Hepatitis B &  C, HIV), Urine and Stool for culture and sensitivity making some good money but there has been a decrease in number of patients after movies like Dhoom 2, Om Shanti Om, Ghajini, etc and I sit idle most of the time now”, said famous cardiologist Dr.Hriday Rog with a sad face.

Some doctors agreed it was wrong to single out actors alone and over the years, high profile elite like politicians and cricketers too have added to the doctor’s woes. Congress President Sonia Gandhi went to the US for glycerin enema after suffering from constipation claiming she went for some ‘confidential’ surgery, Amar Singh flew off to Singapore to start his own Kidney racket, Virendra Sehwag went to Bangladesh for his alopecia (Baldness) and others too should be held responsible. Many claim it is nothing but a cheap publicity stunt on the part of the wannabes to grab the limelight.

When Faking News: Doctor’s Lounge news crew reached the spot, hardly could they make out what the fuss was all about (because of the secret handwriting on the placards) until they saw the doctors burning effigy of Hrithik Roshan and beating Ghajini with slippers. This angered Shah Rukh’s good friend Salman Khan who tried running over the protesting doctors, this time in his Caravan. No one was seriously injured.

Support poured in on online forums for the protesting doctors from Cardiologists and Pharmaceutical Companies manufacturing ‘Statins, Ecospirin and Clopidogrel’ and medicated stents from all over the country. They have warned that the day is not far when like the ink on Baba Ramdev’s face or the slap to Sharad Pawar, a frustrated doctor would throw a pint of blood on some actor/cricketer/politician's face during their press conference.

The ugly scenario turned into celebration as news came in that Cardiologist Dr.Hriday Rog and his Gynacologist wife Dr. Meenupauz had just become proud parents of twins Angina and Vagina. The protesting Doctors then dispersed and were seen sitting and drinking in a bar close by.

DARE TO DREAM BEYOND AIIMS, IIPM MEDICAL SCHOOL LAUNCHED.


Mumbai : With the fall in revenue after the public notification by UGC (University Grants commission) that IIPM is not a University and has no right to issue degrees, India’s biggest fraudster and self proclaimed management guru Prof. Arindham Chaudhari announced the opening of IIPM Medical School today.

“We at IIPM Medical School offer M.M.B.B.S to medical students, a dual course called Masters in Bachelor of Medicine & Bachelor of Surgery. Our on panel professors team include eminent medicos like Dr.Amitabh Bacchan, Dr.Vijay Mallaya, Dr. Rahul Dravid, Munnabhai and others. In line with our tradition at IIPM to give free laptop and a foreign trip to students, we will gift a Doctor’s set comprising of 2 aprons, 1 hammer and 3 pens to every student along with a trip to a real hospital before the completion of the 3 year course”, said Chaudhari.

When asked about the career prospects and relevance of such Doctors in today’s fierce competition, our Faking News samwadata Arun Swaminathan was legally warned of asking defamatory and disturbing personal questions.

Inspired by the IIMs to grant extra marks to females and non engineers to maintain diversity in the batch, IIPM medical School has decided to give 33 % Quota for women candidates with 5 marks extra to good looking ones. Medical students will also be provided fake campus placements as consultants into 7 star corporate hospitals. With IITs similar plan to provide medical education whitewashed after no clearance by the HRD ministry, trade analysts claim IIPM Medical School might actually be the “Game Changer” for the deficit of doctors in the country.

IIPM spoke person Shah Rukh Khan added, “IIPM is a non profit organization and we believe in providing quality education at cheap prices. Our M.M.B.B.S course is likely to cost a paltry Rs.25 Lakhs which is peanuts compared to what other private institutions currently charge. We plan to tie up in future with Harward School of Medicine and other such non existing fake Universities too.”

Although Mr.Chaudhuri neither confirmed nor denied the possibilities, it is being rumored that he has already planned to buy out Hospitals like AIIMS, KEM, LTMGH, PGI and others in the near future.

MBBS EXAMS MARRED BY RAMPANT CHEATING, MUHS APPROACHES ANNA.


Mumbai: In a desperate move after the outrage by the citizen groups against the “Registered” local quacks, MUHS has approached the anti corruption crusader Anna Hazare for help.

With the death of 21 people in the past 1 month due to cough and cold, it is now clearly evident that the standard of medical education in the country is so poor and only MUHS is to be blamed. Following initial complaints, a secret pilot project was launched wherein it was found that MBBS students hardly study for exams and widespread copying practices by passing of supplements, E-books on mobiles, micro Xeroxes and open book exams are prevalent in most medical colleges. In some cases, it was found that the question papers are leaked by the Houseman or Registrars a day prior to the exam and students simply insert 'Answers Written Supplements' with other sheets before submitting their papers to the invigilator intern who himself stands guard to help students copy.

Some college managements taking stringent measures installed CCTV cameras in classrooms but often, the camera operators were caught red handed zooming on the female students. With the involvement of Anna Hazare, this copycat doctor issue has now become a political agenda. Baba Ramdev has decided to conduct Yoga classes in seminar halls of medical colleges across the country where students will be taught “Kapal Bhanti” and “Surya Namaskar” which increases concentration so that students start studying and stop copying. Even senior BJP leader Shree L.K. Advani has set out once again in his famous ‘Rath’- The Air conditioned Mercedez Benz bus on a rath yatra to spread awareness among the General practitioners. Congress leaders P. Chitambaram, Pranab Mukherjee, Kapil Sibbal and Dig Vijay Singh visited Ralegaon early this morning urging Anna Hazare to sit on an ‘Anshan’ for this cause pledging full support from the ruling party.

Even though Hazare has not publicly answered the shutterbugs, our inside sources say that he has cowardly refused the offer citing non compliance from medical undergraduates to stop copying. While news channels desperately wait for his official statement, protesting citizen group 'Me Anna' has labeled the copycat Doctors as ticking Time Bombs waiting to explode anytime and claim more lives if not defused immediately.

Many morally enlightened General Practitioners have come forward to return back their MBBS degrees to MUHS in exchange for other career options.

HEAD HELD HIGH...


When time tests you in its war,
People taunt you for who you are,
Things fall apart, you don't know why,
Never look down, keep your head held high.

When success evades you, failures you see,
Learn to move on, let it be,
Aim higher next time, for the limitless sky,
Never look down, keep your head held high.

Every strong man is tested, before his greatness,
Accept the truth, keep the heart hate less,
You too have it in you, it sure ain't a lie,
So never look down, and keep your head held high.

AISHWARYA NOT PREGNANT, FAKING NEWS GOES GAGA.

                        
Mumbai: In a shocking revelation reported exclusively by Faking News, Aishwarya Rai Bachpan is actually not pregnant anymore. She was brought to LTMGH for post natal USG (Sonography) where our ‘Gupt Sutr’ spotted her removing a soft pillow from  under her top looking a perfect 36-24-36 and bribing the gynecologist.

When Faking News decided to investigate, it came to light that the shooting of Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine was in full swing and Aishwarya is still the lead actor. 7 Hills hospital which has been turned into a fortress as claimed by Mumbai Mirror dated 15/11/11 is the location where the last few scenes are being shot.

Faking News caught up with the director Bhandarkar who said, “After I enjoyed raping a small time model, I decided to include the casting couch angle in my movie. During the shooting of intimate scenes, Aishwarya actually got pregnant & we had to change the story line. She has already delivered twins Sallu and Vivek on 11/11/11 at 11:11 AM. We are now shooting the climax of the movie where she files a court case against her movie director and they live happily ever after.”

Both Big B & Small B refused to comment when Faking news tried contacting them in their ‘B-hive’. Whereas this revelation has shocked even the Faking News crew, many trade analysts say that the hype around Aishwarya’s baby is only to revive her husband’s sinking career and bring him back to limelight with something ‘productive’ at last although there are speculations that the 'do boond zindagi ke' are not his.

Reportedly, Big B had bet Rs.50 Crores and his ‘non-existent’ Rolls Royce Phantom (gifted by Vidhu Vinod Chopra for his spectacular performance in Eklavya) on whether Aishwarya would deliver Monozygotic or dizygotic twins.

WIGS & COSMETICS TO CREATE 1000s OF DOCTORS: MUHS

Mumbai: With the sharp decline in the number of aspiring medical students seen recently, MUHS which was once famous for mentally torturing medical students has now gone into damage control mode coming up with new ways to woo science students to join medicine and repent for the rest of their lives.

It has been observed that most male doctors get partially bald and girls look ugly and old by the time they pass MBBS. This has led to a decrease in the charm and sex appeal of young doctors who no longer find medicine to be lucrative, after all ‘item patana’ and ‘patna’ is the new generation mantra. In a critical meeting of the illiterate babus, it was decided that MUHS will now give wigs for males and cosmetic hamper to females as souvenirs on convocation along with their medical degrees. It was further decided that the top 3 students from each college will be given hair replacement therapy and free nose job or breast augmentation for males and females respectively.

Aishwarya Rai, one of the brand ambassadors of the campains in her first public appearance post delivery of the twins Sallu & Vivek as reported by Faking news on 16th November said,“Even though the pervert male & ugly female doctors kept staring at me in the labor room, I think it is not their fault for being in such sorry state of affairs…with Lux & Loreal products in the hamper, they will have more sex appeal....Take care.”

Munnabhai who boasts of being MBBS too applauded the decision &  said, “ Mamu, Circuit ki wife ki delivery karke maja ni life…Bole toh, apun bhi apun bachon ko doctor-ich banayenga..sabko woh jadu ki jhappi denge and patient chaka chak.”

Only time will tell whether wigs and cosmetics will coax students to take up medicine as a career or not, but medical pundits say it is a master stroke played by MUHS and positive results will soon be seen.

FAKING NEWS: Doctor's Lounge ALMOST LOSES ITS 'HEAD'

WRITTEN BY ARUN SWAMINATHAN- "Check out my tribute to the founder of Faking News:Doctors' Lounge !! Good show Mohit!! "

(All Names, incidents and institutions are real. This is not a work of fiction and must not be treated as one. No names have been changed for reasons of privacy / safety. The writer is not responsible for any of his actions despite being fully aware of his senses. No legal responsibility will be accepted by the writer in the event of something untoward happening, which he sincerely hopes to see happen. )

Mumbai:  In a highly dramatic event filled day, the likes of which have only been seen during final exam vivas, Faking News' head honcho and legendary newsman Dr.Mohit Garg agreed to stay on as CEO (Chief Entertainment Officer) after rejecting offers from some of the finest institutions in the world to work for them at a salary greater than what is being currently offered to him for his yeoman service at Faking News.

Reports suggest that various iconic institutions approached him and tempting offers were made to entice him away from his current position as CEO and MD (Madness Director).

Some of the approaches and negotiations that were made were as follows-

1) Apple - The company has been in turmoil since the death of its iconic and legendary founder Steve Jobs (who used to watch Bhojpuri movies with Mohit and was a 'close friend'). They reportedly approached Mohit with an offer that included his own office in California with 2 'actresses' as his secretaries for his...daily needs, his own dabbawala service for his minimal dietary needs titled as 'iDiet' and his own movie production studio titled 'iApples', an obvious reference to his legendary fondness of apples, of the eating variety, of course. Mohit turned down the offer as he had already been asked by Jobs about it. Jobs had told him that he could have large assets during tenure as Apple chairman to which Mohit replied by removing his shirt and showing his paunch to Jobs declaring it his largest asset. Jobs reportedly died of shock with his last words being, "Oh Wow!!Wow!"

2) Google - Sergei Brin and Larry Page realized that they were inviting the greatest marketing genius of all time when they came by to offer Mohit a position on the board of Google. They offered him half of the total shares of the company, his own McDonald's and daily sandwich jobs with his favourite employees among other benefits like a salary of 100 million $/week, a chauffeur driven truck and as many free beers as he could count daily. Mohit turned it down saying half was only 25% of shares, he preferred Jumbo King over McDonald's, sandwich jobs with Larry and Sergei were not possible because the bed would not hold their weight, it would take a week for him to count 100 million, he preferred a royal bullock-cart driven by a 100 donkeys and he could only have 10 beers since he could not count more than that using hisfingers.

3) Anna Hazare - One of his major local offers came from our very own crusader,Annaji,who wished to have Mohit on his team. The government of India protested saying that when Anna who fasted for a few days could change so much,  what was the need to use Mohit who could safely fast for a year at least? They greatly feared the results of a year long fast from Mohit, which while highly anticipated, would be very lethal since national food reserves would double and cause a sharp drop in food prices. They claimed that this would cause financial instability and collapse of many institutions. Mohit declined Annaji's offer claiming that government stability was important for security and he could bring down the government or any other institution any time he wanted to by standing on top of their buildings.

 4) WikiLeaks - Impressed by his insightful and fearless reporting, WikiLeaks leader Julian Assange offered Mohit the job he himself held via video chat from London where he is being held for 'rape'. He offered to teach Mohit the latest techniques for espionage and electronic surveillance and Yoga and diet techniques for personal use. Mohit declined because he thought Assange was trying to fool him by offering to teach a technique that is impossible to master like Kung-fu dragon fireballs or Nuclear Reactor technology. Mohit had tried every diet on Wikipedia and the internet and had come to the realization that weight loss diets were as effective as asking ortho professors to rate students on the basis of knowledge rather than looks.

 5) Tata Group - The final offer for Mohit came from the famous Tata Group. Ratan Tata himself offered to guide Mohit in his first 2 years of employment before Mr.Tata retired to ensure a smooth transition. Mohit refused the job because Tata group served only 2 types of vada-pav in its canteens and not the 8-9 types that Mohit wanted .

Officials at LTMMC and LTMGH spoke off the record to this reporter and expressed regret that Dr.Garg had not taken up any of the offers made to him. They were worried that he would pursue news writing and eating with more enthusiasm, as if it were needed. Dr. Garg himself told us his reasons for staying on. As he very astutely put it, " It is my undying love for this campus, its people and all that it holds that keeps me here. The large beautiful clean buildings, spacious living quarters, healthy and friendly people, large salary of Rs.2000 and easily available high quality canteen food that will hold me here forever. But most importantly, it is the helpful and friendly librarian who keeps me from leaving. One smile from that face and it wipes away all your pain and fears."

This reporter wishes Dr.Garg many more happy, healthy and hungry years at LTMGH and shares Dr.Garg's large appetite...for life, of course. Thank you for your work and support, Dr.Garg. We all love you, Mohit. Keep up your inspiring work and continue to inspire your followers. May 'The Stomach that walks' continue to give us courage and fight for freedom for many more years to come.

FACE OFF MEDICINE AS A CAREER.

                                 
The following is a ‘Personal’ expression of the truth about the medical profession in the current scenario…the reality of a Doctor’s life. [Hardcore medical enthusiasts before you start cursing me, stop right here]

Yes we are nerds…we are geeks…we are those hard working, selfless doctors who have sacrificed a lot and gone through hell to be one. For as long as I remember, we are those who have burnt the midnight oil all through childhood, teenage years and early adulthood…been hardworking toppers, disciplined, brilliant winners throughout.

Right from getting into medical college after cracking the entrance exams (in 1,2 or 3 attempts), we give our best so that we can live up to the dreams and hopes in our parents’ eyes. Slogging hard, going through innumerable exams, vivas and more exams, we have no social life at all except restaurants and theaters near the medical college. We miss out on our family lives, cousin’s marriages, family functions, new year celebrations, festivals like Diwali, Navratri because we are always busy studying for the mid term, ward exams, prelims or the university exams.

Unlike engineering and commerce courses requiring 2 months of studies just before half yearly and final exams, for us time literally comes to a standstill for approximately 6-7 years studying 365 days a year during M.B.B.S to become a doctor. The medical college becomes our home, our playground and fellow students our family. Even after completion of M.B.B.S, we stand no where in the current scenario. The days of a General Practitioner are over.. Then we start preparing for a second rat race and we go back to what we are best at…Sitting and studying for post graduation....having the most boring, frustrating, sedentary life one can imagine. By the time we get our graduation degrees, most of our contemporary friends are already done with their Masters. And then there is the 'Rural Moship' where you are supposed to waste 1 more year in some village or tribal area just because we chose to be a ' Life saving Doctor' or pay an impossible amount of money to the Government.

Sitting and studying for 1-2 years preparing for post graduation, not necessarily getting into the branch of your choice and compromising in life, and then living life like a dog for 3 years during post graduation is so saddening. And then we start our lives when our school and college friends are well settled living their lives happily after marriage with their children. And when we do come out of the long dormant period, all we realize is the true meaning of life…it is not in money, fame…but in small little things of everyday life, being with family…. Yes, we doctors do get very rich eventually but at the age when we cannot enjoy their own money, because the time we should have been 'alive', we were stuck in our books.

Today I feel, medicine is only for people who are rich, whose parents/grand parents are established doctors and who have to live on the family lineage…for people who think being a doctor is cool, noble, respectable and would want to be one…. think again, it all looks hollow later on. It is not worth spending your life, paying so much to be one, Even if you want to be, please go abroad for a better life.....otherwise you will too become the money sucking loser dying for the doctor's 30 % cuts one day.
