First week back to a regular working schedule after the holidays. I could definitely feel the 'holiday hangover' in the air all week. We were all a little sluggish as we came down after our sugar/booze/lack of sleep/ and shopping highs.
I wrote a 3-hour exam at the end of the week. This was an exam was designed by the department, and intended to see what level of knowledge each of the residents are at. I literally felt consumed with anxiety for this. My fear is that this exam is going to reveal how much I have forgotten while I was on maternity leave. Our program director told us that our mark would be shared with all of the staff docs who we work with, so that they can help us work on our areas of weakness. (argh!) Apparently this is supposed to be a good thing, and will make me stronger. I am worried that it will have the opposite effect... that it will discourage me and point me out as a 'weak link' among the residents.
After writing for 3 hours and being relieved to finish...we were informed that part-2 is next week.
sigh.
