Desperate patient, desperate Dr..

sometimes working in a clinic can really drive u up the wall, with certain "interesting" and greedy patients. Example:

scenario 1:

Dr: auntie, your BP is sky high , have to get admited to hospital ASAP!

Pt: no lah...i didnt sleep well yesterday...my husband pass away last year...my cat was having noises while intercourse...tats y BP today high...no need admit lah..

Dr: i am not asking your permission aunty..u NEED to be admited. or else can get stroke later.

Pt: aiyo..nevermind lah...so old oledi.

scenario 2:

Dr: so tats all auntie. cya. next. (outside the door patients were waiting like pasar malam)

Pt: Ar Dr ah...my backpain le...then got headache le...then ar....my nose my buttock itchy le...then oh..sometimes i get saturday night fever...and joint pain here and there...apa itu...sakit chiku?

Then she continues..

Pt: Dr ah...i want the KK pill (PCM tablets), medicine for joint pain, itchy itchy, headache har...somemore....this and tat and this..

Dr: aiyo auntie u move my pharmacy counter back to your house la. easier like tat.

Pt: aiyo..hahaha.....can ar?

These are the times when i wanna do THIS

BYE BYE AUNTIE! lol

Hope you're not like the doc on duty when I brought my dying 80-year-old auntie to the hospital. He had a form and was asking me all sorts of questions, even, "Does she have her periods?" Good grief! Over 80 years old and she's still having her periods!!!
