Howl
This is the utterly most useless year I've spent in uni. I have right to practice and I they've already taught me all the clinical stuff. So why oh why am I here crowing bacteria and boring myself to death waiting for milk to turn blue (or stay white if there is no antibiotics in it). I'm just spending taxpayers money for nothing. Blah.
Ok, I also have a doctor appointment. It feels a bit useless. And scary. I think they want to do some test to see if I really have an asthma. Well, I can already tell them I do but I think they're not going to listen to me. And only thing I'm going to get is that the state is going to pay 70 % of my medicines and not only 50 % as they do now. It sounds quite a good reason, I know, but the thing is I actually have money these days. I can happily pay the 50 % and leave the rest of the state's money for those who need it more. And doing tests feels like wasting money also.
We could try to leave the meds off for a while and see what happen. Or maybe try a smaller dose. But I don't know. I have an inhallator so the drug doesn't actually leave my lungs in any point. And because it doesn't go to bloodstream it doesn't have the side effects cortisone usually have. So I really see no point trying to stop the medicine when I feel like I'm not going to survive without it. My medical instinct is usually quite reliable even when the patient is me. Now I just have to go and explain all this to the doctor. And this is the part that will go utterly wrong, I'm afraid. Le sigh.
Alright, now happier newsflashes:
- I like sushi.
- We have a new, shiny computer.
- Paddy is visiting us this week ^____^.
- We went to Korkeasaari yesterday and the otters were lovely ^^.
