PK oh PK

Pharmacokinetics tutorial 2 happened today.

Multiple dosing case examples were discussed first.
The whole lecture theatre was in total silence. The only sound to be heard was the ink marker squeaking against the white board surface as a selected student did the workings of each question on the board. Dr Ignacio stood close-by keeping watch. It was eerie.


Case 1 workshop questions came next.
Someone went up to do the questions.
I copied and tried to process it all with my puny little mind.
Dr. Ignacio explained.
I channelled all my brainpower to comprehend.
It was like walking tight-rope. One slip, one lapse of concentration and I would be lost; in the deep dark jungle of tangled and twisty PK equations; never to be found again.

Time was running out. We sped through case 2 workshop questions.
I wanted to cry.

And then, it was over.

My subconscious mind has been conditioned to associate PK with Dr. Ignacio.
PK = Dr Ignacio
Dr Ignacio = PK
Now I get an eerie feeling of foreboding, of impending doom, whenever I see him.
