Why the apprehension?
My first visit to the hospital was for when five of
us got hit with food poisoning. I went in to see the Doctor, he looked at
me (nothing else) for all of five seconds, said that I had the Flu and prescribed
me some medicine which promptly found it's way into a bin (apart from the
headache tablets).
My friend Tom was sick for two weeks, finally went
to get some tests done and was diagnosed with Leukaemia. Discovered it was
a chest infection some time later.
They are overworked and underpaid (seriously) and it
is difficult for them, especially with the language barrier. But this knowledge
doesn't fill you with confidence.
