Can anyone advise me on which of these 2 would be the best investment? One would allow me to heal more often, the other less often, but more damage total, correct? I'm able to use only Stim Bs....
Many thanks,
Seena

As I read it, you're deciding between 3100 and 2200. I would advise that you instead go 1030. This will give you the ability to use stim C's. They have enough healing power that, even with just first aid 1,you'll easily heal more damage than you would with stim B's and first aid 3.

Yes, going 1030 would be ideal with this set-up. Diag isn't that useful to the non-medic (i.e. someone who isn't mainly a Medic) and Pharm 3 allows you to use Stim Cs (well with a little Ease of Use experimentation).
If you're limited to Stim Bs for religous reasons or something, then First Aid 3.

Obata is offering sage advice. I agree with his recommendation.
Ignore the Diagnostics line. Healing a lot of damage (although lessfrequently) will more than make up for any perceived increase in heal speed.
How many skill points are you willing to put into Medic? We may be able to offer you additional options if you have enough skill points.

Hey Seena!
The Guy/Gals are correct imo...forget diagnostics. The best option in my opinion, if you can squeeze 3 more points out, would be to get first aid 2 for the healing bonus and to stop bleeds with pharm III. Otherwise go 1030. Nice stim Cs can be made with a med use of 30 and a power of over 650....and the resource cost is only 4 units more per pack than stim Bs.
*smooch*
Glad to see you back!

Pip! It's good to be back! ::LICK:: hehehe 
Thanks for all the advice guys, I really really appreciate it!
Above novice medic I have 11 skill points, and under duress, I can squeeze out another 2.... I hate to lose FIrst Aid (what with so many DOTs in use now). To get the extra sp I'll have to sacrifice +15 in ranged defense....
Thanks again!

I think I'll go for 2030 and sacrifice those ranged defense points....
You've all been very helpful, thanks for the great advice...
I'll see you in game Pip!!!
