Sick

I started coughing 2 Sundays ago.
The cough escalated into a full fledged flu attack.
Was at work on Wednesday last week and had to leave early as I was getting really whoozy.

Anyway as my regular doctor does not open his clinic on Wednesday nights, I decided to make use of my company's medical benefit and visit an AIA panel doc instead.
The bad thing was that none of these clinics are within walking distance of my home.
So imagine my frustration when the first one I went to was closed.
The second one blatantly refused to register me although they were still half an hour away from the official closing time.
I was really fuming by then....literally and physically.

Ended up at a non panel doctor eventually but I am glad.
The doctor was very attentive and explained his diagnosis to me in much details.
When fever strikes me, I cannot be prescribed any medicines due to my drug allergies.
So for the next 2 days, I was confined to my bed....just suffering from temps of 38.9 degrees and waiting to break out of the feverish daze.

Fever finally broke on Saturday and I played mahjong on Sunday.
I lost. It was really a short week.
