Doctors tubes and a bit of shopping


You will be happy to know the hospital is as crazy as the streets, how they can get anything done I do not know and the waiting room for Endoscopy was just as crazy, people everywhere, waiting rooms packed. The procedure was pretty quick and I was in and out, it was just the way I remember it, the doctor had a look around, once the tube is in it is a weird feeling having them pump your stomach up, did a lot of burping afterwards.
Once complete they did not really say much to me, wait outside and then they handed me my results, all in Vietnamese so no reading that, back down to the doctor downstairs and find out what is going on. Well they found something, for one I have had a virus as something in my bloods was below normal but nothing else, excellent no malaria or swine flu, and my stomach, seems I have an inflammation in the lower part of my stomach which has been causing me the pain. Well with the combination of the two I felt like crap. It is good to know that it was something and not a manifestation of my child hood traumas at the hands of my older brother, really the beatings I received were not that bad and I probably cause more trauma to my sister, who at the age of can’t remember still drags up my past indiscretions. Watch out Bex’s they might start physically coming out if you can’t put it behind you, you have to think of them as lesions, Not sure what I was teaching you though.
After the doctor I headed off and out of the crazy hospital into the crazy streets, I had seen a movie theater on the way and thought I would go and watch something, Transformer is out tomorrow so that was a bit of a bugger, but startrek was on so that would do. Ended up being pretty good and used a few hours. When you have not got plans and don’t really feel like doing much it is nice just to have a couple of hours were you don’t have to think about anything but the movie.
Later in the afternoon took the bike out for a ride, it had just been sitting there for a week so had to get everything moving again and give the chain a clean. The roads were fun and crazy and I saw one crash and I think I was the cause as it happened right behind me, not that I was in the wrong, it happened because someone was watching me and not the rest of the traffic, well that’s my story and I am sticking to it. I thought about heading off the next day or going to Transformers, I could have gone but I really wanted to see Transformers, is that bad.
You know travelling around Asia and I want to stop in and see a movie, well I can only hope it is worth it, I liked the last one so should like this one, O yes it is cheaper over here cost me $6 NZ which is better the $15 I would have paid in NZ.
