VP test quite screwed but happy enough tt I didn't fail ..
Haha some might wonder what on earth am I doing here, blogging on a wed night, when I am supposed to be in camp :S. This is like the 2nd worst bout of illness I have ever got (worst was during pri sch, had fever of 40 degrees celsius).
Nvr had an illness that lasted this long before. Went to see GP on sunday, temp was 38 degrees after taking panadol some time before. Got mc for sunday and monday, booked in on monday night, took medication and slept, when I woke up, temp was 38.9 degrees celsius. Went to see MO, got another day's mc, booked out that morning, went home to rest then booked in at night. Same thing, ate my medication and slept, this morning temperature was 38.5, after which it rose to 38.7. Went to see MO again, got another day's mc and went hospital to do A&E. No signs of dengue, but can never be too sure since it was only the 4th day of fever and I have to go to polyclinic on sat to do a follow-up.
Speaking of MO, well the MO at my camp is quite mean, or some might say f***ed up. PS Marcus was right, thinking about why he is like that has made me realise a lot of things. In the unit, there's a lot of NSFs who are not totally not motivated in what they are doing and spend their time thinking of how to fake injuries/illnesses to get out of course. The MO probably attends to this kind of people everyday. Surely, he did not seek to become a doc just so he can help people to chao-keng, ooc or treat patients who are not really patients.
Well it's still not right to assume everyone's like that and I was really offended by some of the questions he asked.
"Did you PURPOSELY(strong emphasis) not take your medication just so your temperature remains high?" I was really angry, but I didn't retort.
Here's how he ended off, "I will give you one day MC for you to go and do your A&E, for your A&E ONLY. If you go anywhere else, I will charge you with AWOL" I have nth to say...
Well I just want to say that if he continues to assume the worst in people, then he might lose sight of why he became a doctor in the first place.
What a bad way to start April ..
