Sick... again =(

I had a shock today! Early in the morning when i was still asleep, the doctor from the USC health center called me and left a voicemail saying that she had to speak wif me regarding my lab results. When i heard the voicemail, i was pretty shock, thinking what had happened to me. So, i called the doctor back and the doctor scheduled an appt for me later in the day. Well end up that my haemoglobin (iron) level is slightly on the low side, while my white blood count is slightly elevated. While it doesnt pose much dangers, the doctor said that i could do better.

So, she gave me another blood test, a urine test and a stool test (trust me this stool test thing is realli gettin on my nerves). She wanted to find out why my iron level is low. And since my cough wasnt gettin any better and im having lots of phlegme, the doctor prescribed me antibiotics, a super strong cough syrup, and an inhaler for my breathing problesms. Well my breathing problems isnt that bad but the inhaler was for cases when i couldnt realli breathe well.

So, i went to the pharmacy wanting to pick up my medication. When the bill came it was like a whooping 110 USD! I was shocked. So Expensive! So, i asked her if i have the USD insurance card, do i get a discount and she said yes. It would be much cheaper... Like bout 45 USD. So i decided to go home and get my insurance card and collect the medication the next day so i can save money. I mean its too ex lor...

Anyway hopefully the medicine would help me to get well soon. This persistant cough is really irritating...
