Am Sick … So Sick
The doctor and the nurse at the clinic sent me home, I was still puking my guts out on the floor and though my seatmate could not really see what it was that I excreted but the sound was already gross in itself that it made her wanna skip on lunch. So off I went to the clinic and was advised to go home, the doctor said this is not just about the ulcer/hyperacidity anymore but it has something to do with my eyes too. Eye strain and error of refraction were amongst the things she mentioned but in laymans term the way I understand is I need to rest my eyes and that meant no TV for one week and computers.
Might wanna dispute on that as work involves facing the computer and so does school. I asked if maybe this is all stress related, she said everything is stress related. To be perfectly honest am agitated with the deadlines I have to meet and it scares me to consider that I could be missing them and mess up.
Was out yesterday and just bought a new notebook, Asus this time. When I thought am through with 14.1 inches but here I am getting another 14.1 instead of the 12.1 I so planned. I didn’t want to be ripped off the second time around and end up feeling like such a loser so I didn’t have them install anything on it. If there’s anyone who can do the installation for me that’d be D and am sure thats gonna be free (the benefit of friendship).
When the installation was complete I thanked him not knowing if words were enough to show how grateful I was for the help he has given but then again I’ve never been good with face to face conversation and its best to leave it at that. Went straight to Biopath if there’s anything that needs urgent fixing that’d be the searing pain in my head and the discomfort in my stomach. The doctor was not around yet so I was advised to come back preferrably in the afternoon which I did. The series of questions begun and he (the quack) said there are only 3 possible causes of frequent vomitting, pregnancy, ulcer, and eye problems. He asked me straight in the eye if am pregnant and I almost laughed when I said no, he said I could be having problems with my eyesight seeing that on file I had various occasions of consulting with the EENT on my astigmatism. So after he prescribed me another round of tablets making me disregard what the doctor at the clinic has prescribed he said I’d better have a word with the resident EENT.
Now the EENT recognized me as his patient who nearly had her eardrum damaged and has error of refraction. ‘Twas not hard for him to prescribed me something as he knows my medical history as far and my eyesight goes.
Being the hardheaded that I am, wearing my glasses was optional like on a whim, and as he bluntly pointed out my being a brat is whats causing me these problems. So I can only remove this spectacles when I go to bed which doesnt seem often, no more coffee for me ever, no skipping of meals, no spicy and oily foods, no more iced tea and softdrinks.
I only have one lifetime to spend and I can’t believe am not gonna enjoy it as much as any human can where food is concerned. No more spaghettis and carbonaras too cause they’re sour. Well at least that ought to allow me to save a couple of bucks. Grrrr ….
So the bottom line is I can only eat cereals and pancakes for the next two weeks but the restriction on coffee and iced tea is forever. He said I’ve had my fill of caffeine for an average coffee drinkers lifespan.
Am absent from work because the pain reliever he prescribed has not worked its magic yet on my searing headache and because I seem to spend quite an ample time on the restroom these past few days.
