UNSW medical student, Judy Kim, reported a week-long history with symptoms of pale skin, light sensitivity, constant fatigue and long hours spent incessantly studying at night. Lab investigations revealed a serious Vitamin D deficiency. The<\/em> Jugular <\/em>obtained an exclusive interview with Judy in her study room to determine how she was coping with the diagnosis.<\/p>\n

\u2018I know, I was so relieved!\u201d reported Judy. \u201cI get it four times a year, right before EOC exams and I always seem to do really well. I think it\u2019s my good luck charm.\u2019<\/p>\n

Upon further questioning, Judy admitted she had not been out of her study room for a week. The only source of light our team could identify in the room was a small IKEA lamp on her desk.<\/p>\n

Judy proceeded to give our reporters an exclusive tour of her room, revealing items like a week\u2019s worth of instant noodles and a number of empty plastic bottles containing non-descript yellow liquid.<\/p>\n

When probed about how her friends had responded to her diagnosis, Judy claimed they had been \u201cjealous and intimidated\u201d. We followed up with one of her peers to confirm.<\/p>\n

Joe, a medical student living in her college, said he wished he could have \u201cthe same symptoms in time for the next EOC.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone knows Judy is a HD GOAT,\u201d he explained. Other medical students standing nearby nodded in agreement. \u201cLord knows I can\u2019t afford to fail. And if getting a vitamin D deficiency is what it takes to pass, well then, goodbye sun, hello osteoporosis.\u2019<\/p>\n
