YAY!!! it’s time to celebrate. so what are we celebrating? me, recovering from tonsillitis. hip hip hurray *jump for joy*. i think it’s getting better and it’ll be A-OK soon. Augmentin really works, though i did suffered from minor diarrhoea. bah.. so since i’m getting better, i started to crave for lotsa lotsa stuff. you know la, i have to jaga makan like kau kau for the past 2-3 weeks ok. a real torture indeed. so i’m craving for...
~deep fried food, especially McDonald's fried chicken and french fries...yum yum
~spicy food especially nasi lemak, chicken curry and asam laksa...wooooo
~cold drinks with lotsa lotsa ice...ahhhhh
~seafood - crabs, calamari, prawns...heaven
~coffee...depriving for one real badly
~ice cream...Haagen Dazs' tiramisu and green tea ice cream...OMG
*saliva drooling*

yesterday i finished all the medicines given by the doc but my right tonsil is still swollen with more whitish/yellowish thingy. creepy... and i started having trouble swallowing as it began to hurt real bad since yesterday morning. thus, i went back to the doc again this morning. since the previous 2 types of antibiotics she prescribed weren’t affective, she gave me another type of antibiotic which is more concentrated with higher dosage of amoxycillin and clavulanate potassium; it's called Augmentin. anyhow, since I’m so thin, she advised me to take half a tablet a day, twice a day with 12 hours gap in between. worst part was when she told me that MOST but not all (duh..) who took the pill will have diarrhoea. aijor jor...this is not good man. plus, that antibiotic is so expensive because it’s imported. 5 tablets for RM40. *suck blood*. but i don’t care about the price as long as it cures my tonsillitis.

Tonsillitis

since two weeks ago, i've been having this funny off and on sore throat, which i thought it's gonna be ok if i am to drink more water. well it did turned out to be ok AT FIRST. then last week, i felt funny whenever i tried swallowing my saliva, it's as if there's something at the back of my throat. and thus, i decided to look into the mirror and see what's inside. to my horror, i was (am still) in awe when i saw my right tonsil was swollen and red and there's white/yellowish thingy on it. grrrRRRR...so scary leh. and so, i started taking lozenges hoping that it'll get better but no, it got worse. i began to have trouble swallowing my saliva a few days later, as it hurts more from day to day and there's more phlegm and it's painful la.

on Monday i decided to visit my company's panel clinic near my place after work, as the whole thing is scaring me more and more. and why i chose that panel clinic? because ONE)it's one of the two panel clinics around my area. i've been to the other one and it's no good, therefore i decided to try this one. TWO)it's FREE ma. BUT, it is going to be my FIRST AND LAST time visiting the clinic because....ONE)the nurse/reception lady is super rude - she never made any eye contact whenever she talks. the way she talks is as if she is totally not happy working there and is extremely rude. TWO)she's so SO SO LAZY, it's like after the consultation i need to collect my medication, she just pushed all the medicines to me and handed me a plastic bag, telling me to put everything into the plastic bag myself, in short it means self service. WTF!!! THREE)the doctor doesn't look like a doctor at all. his desk is SO SIMPLE, i've never seen a doctor's desk like his. serious, it's like he only has a few files on the desk, no pc (pc is on this other table behind him), he only has a stethoscope and no blood pressure cuff, and there's a beaker with disgusting yellow water (i'm sure it's for sterilization) with a thermometer and metal tongue depressor in it. seriously, it looks disgusting and so unhygenic. FOUR)the doctor doesn't seems to be very professional. he consulted me for LESS THAN 2 MINUTE. YES!! i'm for real. i went in, told him about my condition. he asked if i have fever, i said no. next, he took his flashlight, looked into my mouth then started writing something on the medical card. then i guess he must be wondering why was i still there, he stopped writing and looked at me and said, "OK". huh?? what do you mean by "OK"??! so i asked, "Done?", he said yes. WTF MAN!! so fast?? fine. he didn't even bother explaining what's wrong with me. bah, so i walked out and promised never to return again.

i didn't take the medication given by the 'paria' doctor. instead, i went to consult my family's doctor. and i finally got to know what's wrong with me. i have tonsillitis. the doctor gave me 2 types of antibiotics and i have to 'jaga makan'. =( no seafood, no cold drinks, no ice cream, no fried food... eat congee all day?? canot la...

it's her birthday today. it took me quite some time to forget about the feud between us and finally, i sent her a text wishing her a happy birthday. i mean after all, she was a best friend and she still is a friend. it's been what...around 2 months and 3 weeks since the incident happened? and there's not even a word nor a text from her. but me sending her a text wishing her a happy birthday; does that makes me the winner or the loser now?
