Escape the crazy house

Watching the clock expecting the doctor to make his first round and reminding the nurse i would like to leave.

The nurse comes back after an hour or so talking on a cell phone. Seems the doctor will asses me via phone. Wow now i'm not sure if he is the best doctor or the worst but i gather he is out of town selling his pyramid health product. It must be no other doctors are in the house.

So i pay my bill and the doctors aditional bills...

convinced my doctor is a nut-job i still follow his prescription of no medical benifit pills and juice. As i read some more of his delightfull pyramid sales rubbish it seems the company has been about for more than 10 years but still can't "prove" anything.

I like faith but common

The Solution

The doctor is here with a solution!

Seems i have a very common virus, that my body isn't used to. So i suffered greatly but currently my white blood cell count isn't up so all must be good except for the 30 times a day toilet run and liquid and blood coming from the wrong places....

The solution is non-medical approved tablets that can only be purchased via his surgery.

I smell something fishy but what can i do...

Large hospital and some dodgy doctors... can't say i didn't get warned.

WiFi @ Mac-Tan Doctors Hospital

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.

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.
