I HATE going to the hospital to see the doctor. I HATE IT!!! I started out at 8am in the morning and came home only at 7pm. 11 solid hours travelling, waiting, being examined (only took 15 miniutes). Travelled over 280 kms in all. It was about 40 degrees - I was burnt to a crisp and dying of thirst. And it cost me well over 1,500 shekels (US$340) just for the travel and beverages. I'd rather die than go see the doctor again. You guys don't know how lucky you are to go to see the doc in less than half an hour, transport cost no more than US$3 (100 times less than what I pay!!!) .....
Well the diagnosis is I have an infection ... and I have allergy to the antibiotic medicine ... it makes me get more diarrhea. So now I have to take the antibiotic and then after one week of treatment, I must start a one month medication to counter the antibiotic side effect. Total is 6 weeks of treatment. My summer is blown away ........ I HATE seeing the doctor ... even tough Dr. Anan is a very nice guy. It's the whole travelling and process that makes it so hateful. US$340 to travel and see the doc??? A flight ticket from Israel to Rome cost the same amount!!!!!!!

Am in a rotten mood now. Feeling so tired and weak and sick. And angry that I lost an entire day and lots of money .... just to see the doctor. So here's a bowl of cherries and mulberries to sweeten you up after reading this belly-aching. Had it for lunch yesterday.
