elusivekGeez, the day is not going so well for me today.
So after my general check up in September, the report came out in October. I have a slight issue (a very simple matter) and the doctor had given me a course of medication, and just told me "you'll need to come back when you complete this course". She didn't say how long after, and I didn't think to ask that.
Anyway, course completed, and I decided to wait 2 days after to revisit the doctor. But. That's the funny thing with that hospital. You don't know which doctor you'd get. Heck, I wasn't even in the same department. The general check up was up in the "General Health Check up" department, but that department did not have the option for individual bookings, so I had to make a booking down in a dedicated department.
Anyway, so I left with quite some time to spare (half an hour) and proceeded on my way to the private hospital. The bus did not stop when I waved at the bus stop (the prick!) so I took another bus that didn't stop exactly at the hospital. I still had to walk a ways, but at least I didn't have to walk up a mountain then down the mountain to get to it.
Doctor checks my file, and says "too early for the re-consultation". She practically asked me to just return next month. Eyeroll. Well at least there was no consultation charge. (This private hospital is well known for being money-sucking). Walked back to the office, up and down the hill and all. I figured I needed the walk.
Then it was lunch. I was feeling pretty hungry, but I also wasn't able to eat properly again, because yesterday the dentist had changed the elastic band that i had to use, so my gums were sore again today. I ordered a shrimp bisque because it's usually served inside a bun... I figured the soup can soften a bit of the bread, so I can also eat a bit of soggy bread that way.
The thing is, I hate shrimp bisque, and any shrimp or lobster soup, the kind where you have to boil their heads and get the brain juice? I don't mind sucking the heads when I'm eating shrimps or prawns, but I have no idea why I hate it so much when it's in soup form. Anyway. All part of the planning. Besides, I've been having tomato soup for almost 2 weeks. I had to ask for something different.
And now I'm feeling so nauseous. It's not the shrimp bisque, I surmise, I think it's more I've stuffed myself too much, I've only been having soup for lunch, and today I had soup and bread, but I don't know.
I suppose I'll be calling it a day earlier today, will just go home and try to sleep it off.
