stick a finger in your eye

Next week comes along and I have to see the eye doc, late. The nurse basically asks why are you so damn late. Sorry.

I do the spelling test. 6/9. Then see the doc. She says ok get this eye poison in there first. I get the eye drops. After a while I see the doc again. Now for the more irritating eye drops. Damn it stings a little. Then she takes a look. Looks the same left and right. She asks other questions, nothing of much interest. She asked what tests were done last time, I say the peripheral. She asked whether I did the glasses test. I say not as a pair but individually. Then she says see you in 6 months.

The nurse asks for my appointment card. I said don't have it, I ask the doc, she says don't have. Shoot. Where is it. The nurse ask who gave the ticket, she don't have it. Then I remember my pocket have it! The nurse then comments you did it on purpose or just absent minded. I says I will need another operation. She says you got operated on I says yes and I should try to get nootropil from the docs. She chuckles and give me my card but add don't be late.

sniff it, sniff it real hard

The next day it was time to see the ENT, late again. I was starting to hate this late thing but first the neuro.

I bump by the doc from yesterday. He said the paperwork was ready. ask about the medic alert bracelet. He said they don't provide for my condition. They only provide it for diabetics and allergies. Screwed up man. I always thought it was for any medication condition. Kind of makes it useless. Not very flexible.

So I wait for the paperwork then go but I get a comment from the nurse not to be so late next time. OK.

I wait for the ENT. I know it's late. Hope I'm lucky. I see him and this time I sniffed more :) . Don't think it makes any difference. I stiff feel the same. The doc looks at the end of my nostril. I see that it is definitely grown from left to right. It's totally blocked. The path to the brain can also be visible and at the end of the tiny opening was my brain throbbing.

Oh well, what to do.

I tell him that I will see the oncologist next week, just after the eye doc.

He says ok, see you in 3 months.

there's nothing wrong with you

So monday comes along and I have to see the Neuro.

While I wait I see Dr Thinnesh. He greets me and asks whether I am still leaking. I say nope and the medicine did it's trick. He says good, still on the brew. I said no, it's finished. I ask whether I'll get chemo or radiotherapy because the ENT asked. He said that depends on the onkologist. They vist once a month .... then the nurses calls me in. I make my excuse and see the neuro.

It was the other doctor (I alsway forget to look at his name tag). He asks whether I was leaking. I said no. He was happy. I ask about the chemo or radio. He says I will need to see the onkologist. He says he will make an appointment today. I say the ENT asked and I will see him tomorrow. He said it's up to the onkologist. He'll give me the details tomorrow plus the reference letter. I say I'll visit tomorrow before the ENT.

I ask about the medic alert bracelet. My concern was that as my right nostril was blocked and worst exposes my brain whether I can get this thing and wear it to prevent emergency staff from poking a feeding tube or de-airing tube in the right nostril. You never know, this can happen if I have an accident. He said he'll ask. He said you can put a note in your wallet. I said the emergency staff may not go through that.
