In answer to your questions about MSc and papers, lots of people will get a publication or two on the way through med school/foundation years and a BSc/MSc doesn't score too much in the way of points. So they would help a little, but it's the whole application that counts. Not just one small subset.
Is life after med school hard? You will have to work hard. But only you will know if the rewards will be enough for you in terms of the relative importance of job satisfaction, finances etc. Some decent work experience and discussions with medics provided me with enough insight to make the correct decision for me. I think it's a great job. I am, however, concerned about my future job prosects. I think anyone entering medicine should be aware that far more medical students are being trained in the UK and that EU applicants can apply for UK jobs. There will be too few jobs to go round, and some of the less competitive UK grads will br disappointed IMO.
