Doctors

Since I've depleted my medicine stores and still not yet fully-recovered, I would like to share with you people out there an insight of a visit to the doctor's in Sabah.

<Doc> (whispering) Hi, what's wrong with you?

<Henry> ... I'm sorry? Come again?

<Doc> What's your sickness today?

<Henry> Oh. I'm not sure actually. I was rather hoping that you'd tell me, you know, since you're the doctor.

<Doc> PLEASE state your symptoms to me then.

<Henry> Ok it started from an infection at the back of my nose, I think, which later spread to my throat, and I started having runny nose and am developing a cough now.

<Doc> Hmm... (sticks a magnifying glass into my nostril)

<Doc> Looks like its swollen.

<Henry> Well, DUH?

<Doc> Tell you what, I'm going to see whether they have any nose drops that are suitable here for you. Just try to keep your nose dry, like when you're showering.

<Henry> ... How am I going to keep it dry when I'm having a runny nose? And you were saying something about nose-drops? Isn't that supposed to be liquid form? Don't tell me its a pill that I have to shove down my nose, because if that's the case you can shove it up your arse.

<Doc> ... Well that's too bad. Ok you can wait for your medicine outside now. Have a nice day, see you again.

<Henry> I hope not!

Please, after reading this, understand that its not only the illness that tries to make you miserable when you fall sick. So keep yourself healthy and happy everyday.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away, they say, if you throw it hard enough at him.

p.s. He didn't give me anything for the cough. I'm still coughing like I've got 3 months of life left.
