Cha-am, Thailand

After a long pondering I decided to go for Continuing Education(CE) again in Thailand end of last month.This time the topic was pretty interesting. It was Veterinary Emergency Practice. I am really sucks in emergency practice though I've been doing emergency oncall all these while.Thus, decided to take this opportunity to brush up my emergency medicine.

The CE was held at Cha-am,south of Thailand. It took approximately 4 hours to reach Cha-am by bus from Bangkok. Cha-am is known as longest while sand beach in Thailand. We were placed in a nice and probably I guess 4 stars hotel(Novotel Tipviman Resort & Spa) in Cha-ma. I personally learnt quite a lot of things from the CE. Such as corticosteroids is not useful or doesnt help in shock therapy(something new to me), and knowlegde of using types of fluids in fluids therapy and a lot more that I've learnt. And again the schedule for the CE were really packed.The sad thing was that I didnt get the chance to walk along the beach shore!!! how can this happened to me??!!
