This was basically my immediate reaction as well. I don't think any specialty other than internal medicine gets excited by hyponatremia. That being said if you like critical thinking and acuity, have you considered anesthesia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb24 Posted February 10, 2023 Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 If you like hyponatremia then IM is probably a good fit. I couldn't do psychiatry for similar reasons. EM is too broad for my liking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
