Wasn’t a good day
Monday, July 28th, 2008
I’ve actually got an MC this morning from the doctor. I’m still feeling heavy head and bones with slight fever.
This morning was my doctor’s appointment in QE for the ENT department to check on my nose. The specialist has told me lots of things, some of which I don’t get what she meant, too many jargon. Anyway, all I know is that I need to have regular exercise, have my medicine, nostril pump and “nose wash”! She specifically reminded me not to use cold water to wash my face early in the morning and it is better to have some exercise in the morning before brushing my teeth. Mom has been telling me not to use cold water, this stubborn daughter just don’t listen! So now I’ve learnt my lesson.
I absolutely hate it when she inserted a long wire which contain a tiny camera into my nostril! Yaik! It hurts and feel really uncomfortable.
The ENT (probably stand for eye, ear and throut) is situated on the 2nd floor of the new block of Queen Elizabeth Hospital, connected right at the end of the overhead bridge from the car park. They have just moved over there a month ago. Everything seems so new, the air-con is cold, the floor is slippery, the toilet is squeky clean and there are still some renovation going on. They use peach as their color scheme which I though it is better than just the normal green or blue which normally used for hospital door panel.
There wasn’t a lot of people, infact quite few and I don’t need to wait long for my que, about half an hour. However the pharmacy is still situated at the old block at the back of the blood bank. But they do have a good system now that there wasn’t a long que for it and they all seems friendly and professional. I’m actually impressed!
After visiting the hospital, it makes me realised just how important to have a healthy body. I saw one middle age man, probably in his late 50, took one big bag of medicine supply for 2 months! It contains almost everything for diabetic, high blood pressure, cholesterol, vitamins, pain killers! Lucky me that I only need to take a 2 months supply and will need to go back there for review in two months time.
At the moment, let’s make it a habit to wash my face with warm water and do regular exercise.
