There is a free public access point somewhere around the hospital. In the reception area signal is fluctuating but workable. Shame no access from the wards :/
I don't think it's in the hospital maybe next door somewhere. Smart signal is full bars but data rate is poor with heavy packet loss, this is going to be a long night.

Emergency @ Mactan Doctors Hospital
Awake for some blood samples, than some urine and stool samples...
What one is the urine and what one is the stool? Both liquid but the one with blood is the stool that's the give away. Nurse looking slightly alarmed.. Like this for 4+ days? Yep.
Will be kept in for observation over night, just waiting for a bed to be available.
While waiting 2 other people come in with same symptoms. One of them a whitey.
Back to sleep before the painkiller wears off....

Admitted to Emergency @ Mactan Doctors Hospital
Not really an emergency but what else can we do. Pay the money and they will help i'm sure...hah
The nurse weighs me first up and i have only lost 3 kilos in 4 days that's no biggie, i didn't want those kilos anyway. On the bed i don't really show signs of dehydration despite fluid exiting my body at an alarming rate.
My urine is only a light yellow and the pinch test seems to suggest my fluid is up but that's only my thoughts.
Next a male nurse hooks me up to a drip, very quick and painless but the sticky tape used to hold the IV line must be the budget kind or i'm more hairy than i think i am.
Next up some painkillers to help with the cramps, shortly after the pain level drops so do my eye lids and i get a good afternoon nap.

Sick in Cebu
Now it's clear i'm getting worse, now with the addition of puke, Spew, throwing up!
A wise man once said "don't get sick"
We stop at jollie-Bee thanks to my sons keen eye (despite my attempt to make him not notice the 60 foot bee).
Great place to puke i guess, and consider if seeing the doctor might be a good idea.
Down to Mactan Doctors Hospital we go and try to find one of those nice family doctors outside. After a 2hour wait at one doctors office hes not accepting anymore for the day so we go to the next and wait another hour. Only a few patients in line but not sure how long things are going to take.
After another hour we decide emergency entrance of the hospital might be the go. A little extra fee and maybe these people can help...

I guess its a waiting game
I guess i have to wait until my body beats the virus, so i'll rest but still need a little more shopping before heading to the province. A little bit of ACE HARDWARE and CD-R KING for bits and pieces.
Not feeling great but the traffic is light today through lapu-lapu. Fuel price is down a little woohoo!
