A trip to the doctors

Something I bet you don’t know. I am an iatrophophic and a dentophobic. Well, simply put, I have this strange fear of visiting the doctors and dentists. Apart from my annual medical check-up at TCU around April. I hardly remember stepping into a clinic for my own treatment. I still remember the only time I was at the doctors was when Rajiv dragged me to a surgery clinic to check out this lump that was growing on my right wrist 2 years back.

Today, my nose was hypersensitive than usual causing me to be a ball of sneezes and mucus. I was sneezing way more than normal and it started to give me a terrible headache. Not being able to continue with work, relating my pain, my superiors strongly suggested that I go see a doctor across the street.

That weird feeling came over me as I dragged myself there. Well, there was nothing much to it actually. After a diagnosis and a prescription for a few pills and a nasal spray, I got back to work. However, I was surprised that my medical fee rang up to a total of 85 bucks!!! Wow! What a pocket burner! I have filed the billings to my company. Hopefully they will reimburse me.

Although chokingly expensive, I am not sneezing anymore now. Cool!
