Finally I've the leisure to write something on this blog. I'm able to get the time off from my busy work to write simply because I've obtained a half day MC today.
I went to the company's panel clinic to seek medical help to diagnose the excruciating throat pain I have been suffering from ever since Monday morning although my ulterior intention is not to cure my pain but to elicit MC for the next day as generally in my honest opinion doctors have no remedy to sickness but remedy for curi tulang. However, instead of issue MC for the next day the panel doctor issued half day MC for today. What a dissappointment.
The reason given by the doctor to justify only a half day MC given today is because he said my fever will recede by next morning.Therefore no point issue me MC the next day. Yes. You heard not wrongly. Fever. The doctor instead of diagnose my throat pain he diagnosed me a fever . I was like what? I have been experiencing acute throat pain whereby I have to undergo VERY PAINFUL episode of burning sensation in my throat whenever I try to swallow food. Even drinking water might gives me a problem. I literally have to shout out in pain whenever I try to swallow a food. That's how painful it was but why suddenly fever?
I find this doctor abit retarded. He certified my " fever " symptom after he shoved the termometer under my tongue and elicited my testimony that I have been experiencing chilling effect lately aka sekejap sejuk sekejap panas. I was like..how dumb can this doctor be? I complained of burning throat but he go on relied on the termometer result that was shoved under my tongue as conclusive evidence that I'm certified fever. Didn't it ever cross his mind that my throat is very close in proximity to my tongue? The temperature below my tongue can be sensically understandable will be high likely influenced by my burning throat nearby. I had chilling effect not because of feverish but because of the pain I am suffering in my throat you moron. It's so painful that my lower jaw have practically gone numb.
How can you rely on my tongue temperature to certify I'm feverish when you didn't even compare the temperature on my forehead which is not HOT at all. I know when I'm feverish because I know my body better than you , doctor who care nothing but to charge patient with exorbitant fees and good for nothing fever,antibiotic and painkiller tablets. Doctors are like policemen. They are the authority when the matters concern his area of expertise but they care less about the core reason of your sickness. They don't want to listen to our explanation because they think they know our body better than us.
I hate the doctor this much simply because he rejected my demand to give me MC for the next day. However looking at the bright side, I not only get to take half day off today, I also receive medicine which is ALL FREE OF CHARGE. All thanks to my beloved company whose footing the bill. If I were to pay for my own medical bill and yet failed to elicit MC for the next day I would have throw a tantrum across the clinic.
Half day MC or no MC?
Half day MC better because FOC medicine and get to bitch about medical practitioner ma haha...no point of explaining when the doctor couldn't be bother about your health.

I really understand what is your feeling after the doctor didn't listen to what you say about your throat. I'm very disappointed on that doctor anyway, my advice is try to consult on another specialist which can give you good advice and also a good listener.
