Hi all, was wondering if anyone of u here has similar
experiences as me before.. whereby u go n see a doctor but e
doc tinks ur trying to fake a mc jus cuz ur sick n ur a
student.
I went to SKG polyclinic todae as i was unwell. den gt called to
tis particular doc's rm. when i went in, he asked me
wad's wrong wif me so i told him bout wad my symptoms
were. tat ytd nite i had a fever but my fever subsided after i
ate panadol extra ytd nite, however, tis morning i woke up wif a
headache hence i gave sch a miss and in e end had to miss my quiz.
e fact was i was reli feeling weak n lethargic as i've jus
recovered frm my fever. but the part bout giving my
quiz a miss i din mention to it at first. he asked me
where im now and i told him im schooling in a poly. den he
rant on and on bout him not understanding y nowadays ppl like
us like to miss school so much den ask me if i go sch nid to
pay sch fees nt la. frm wad all his qns, i can feel tat he reli
tinks tat im like those other students hu go to a polyclinic jus to
'buy mc which is nt e case! den i say i din go cuz i gt a
headache. cuz i oso told him i ate panadol again for my
headache den he ask me wad time my sch start den shld hav go
after i took e panadol wad. i can tell tat to him, having a
headache is a veri minor thing. so i told him e truth tat my lesson
starts at 9 n i gt a headache when i woke up at 8+ hence i nv go
sch. den he gave me an attitude look n say wad if it was a
movie, no matter headache or wad, i will go attend one rite. den i
was like wth.. instead of like a doctor telling his
patient to rest well or wad, he is here to reprimand
me.
den after he keyed in e medicine for my throat
cuz i told him my throat hurts too which is e truth, i
asked him for an mc. den he gave me tis reluctant look again
la. n becuz my sch requires tat in e case tat u
had test/exams on e day u missed sch, e mc nids to state
tat u are 'unfit for test'. so i pluck up my courage n
ask him whether can help me state. haha as wad i've
expected: he gave me tis unfrenly look
again and say cannot help me write. my symptom so
minor oso can sit for test one. den he say ppl hu gt
fever 39.9 degree celsius oso go sit for test lor. somemore u gt
headache onli how can i help u write. i did some reasoning wif him
but in e end gave up.
partly, wad i tink he say is true too. yes, u can still go
for a test if u have headache. but e fact is u r
giddy n wAD if on ur way to sch u met wif mishap or
wad, hu wans to be responsible? besides, i feel tat he shld be more
understanding since i jus recovered. well, tis doc's quite old
(senior) alr so i guess he mus hav met wif lots of students
trying to fake their illnesses. so i was wondering.. if everyone
missed school becuz dey r sick, but yet nt given a proper mc jus
cuz their symptoms r too minor like having a headache, den i guess
more n more ppl will hav to lie bout their symptoms like dey gt
diarrhorea or wad since e doc can't check wad. i mean sumtimes ur
jus being honest to the doctor, but yet r given tis treatment.
so i guess it doesn't pay to be honest hur?
i told my frz n my parents bout it den dey were tinking
how can e doctor b liddat. one of my frz even suggested tat i shld
hav used e example frm the NS case to tok back to him. but, well i
noe tat no matter wad i say is oso no use.
so guys.. jus letting out my dissatisfaction out here.
do share ur experiences here if u hav any!
cheers.
