Well, this is it! My very first post.

Hello everyone this is health and medicine. It may be obvious that it is the first time I have blogged.

This blog will be dealing with medical issues, different treatments, diagnosis and managements of diseases, topics on health promotion and some product reviews.

Since I am practicing in the Philippines, a tropical asian country, my posts and the information I offer may just be limited to that aspect of medicine and treatment. I do not claim to know everything and don't want to present myself as a foremost authority on anything. I just share the best knowledge that I have on certain topics that I have come across during my practice.

I am a medical doctor by profession and it is a common perception that we are always busy. The perception is right, sometimes, especially for those of us just starting our practice. It especially holds true for me; what with 2 jobs, a family of five and businesses to take care of.


So, why do you ask, am I adding another thing to do with my already crowded life?

Well, if I do something it's usually for many reasons. The main reason may be because I also want to put in my 2 cents worth in this world, to be heard and share my knowledge with not just my patients, relative and friends. This is my way of sharing what I have with the world (and that's because I don't have a lot of cash to give away).

The other reasons? Hmmm... although I am mainly interested in fiction, writing, any kind of writing is one of my first passions so this is also a way for me to improve and practice on one of my first loves. Meeting other people and broadening my horizons are also other reasons, not just limiting myself to looking at tonsils and xrays.

Basically that's it. Welcome to my blog. I hope those of you who read my succeeding posts will find them useful and maybe entertaining. Thanks. :)
