I slept the whole weekend away. The outing on Friday didnt work out. I had a terrible headache boiling since last Wednesday and it became a full blown migrane on Friday. It got so bad that my vision was impaired. So went home in the afternoon and missed out on gift exchange in the evening on Friday and the outing to Attica Too. Boo.

The visit to the doctor was horrible. In fact Singapore clinics are horrible. I went after lunch (because I had to eat. duh) and it was closed! My brain was already pounding with venegance and my vision was impaired therefore damn grumpy. I cursed at that stupid clinic nearby my office and proceeded to the one near my place.

Guess what? They are closed from 12pm - 2pm. Oh My (*)&*%$#@@!!!! I already had to endure the walk from the stupid MRT to take the train back to my place, and from my place I had to walk 15 bloody painfuly headachey visionly impaired minutes to the DAMN clinic and when I reached there it was 1.50pm. OH GREAT. (Yea I didnt use a cab. It was that painful until I cant think straight)

So I went and wait outside the freaking clinic like a druggie wanting her next fix (eyes swollen and red, hunching in pain kinda look.. you understand..). Then promptly at 2pm the doors open (me silently thanking God for punctuality) and then... the nurse said

The doctor wont be in till 2.30.

(CURSE THE DOCTOR!!! PUNCTUALITY MY ASS)

My painful head couldnt take it anymore so I just registered numbly and slept on the chair waiting for bloody 2.30 to come so that my number will be called.

If that was not enough, the doctor was cold and disconnected. This is my second visit to the same doctor. My first impression? Uncaring. He just asked without looking at me in the face and staring at his diagnosis sheet "What is wrong today?"

What the hell

So I told him the whole story. Headache since Wednesday. Unable to sleep. Migrane today. Vision impared. Neck pain. Abdominal pain.

So he proceeded to take my bloodpressure, then record it down. Checked my temprature etc etc. No facial expression, no connection no eye to eye contact kinda concern. And not even a word from him

How can they be so COLD?

What the hell. Never tell me whether my blood pressure is high low or normal. Never tell me if I have fever or just normal. Never tell me what medicine he is going to prescribe to me. Never tell me if I take this medicine what is going to happen. Never tell me what to do if it happens again. Never tell me preventative measures. NOTHING NADA. Just asked me. Do you need an MC today? Ya. OK bye. WTF.

My home doctor always tell me other things like be mindful of what you eat, that may trigger the migrane etc etc (yes I get bad migranes alot). Taking x vitamins helps reduce the blablabla... u know the caring stuff... looks you in the eye with concern as you spell out your ailments, explains to you what kind of medication he/she is going to prescribe, how you are supposed to take it, whether it is drowsy or non drowsy. You feel that connection with the doctor and he/she is really concerned about your general health.

AND THEY ARE ALWAYS OPEN DURING LUNCH HOURS!!!!! THEY HAVE SHIFTS!!!!!

Are all Singapore doctors that uncaring?

I'm never ever going there again for consultation. Phooey.
