Today I was at the doctor

Really long time had passed since I was at the doctor last time. Anyway few things:

a) Today was my doctor working from 13:00 till 18:00. At 12:57 were sitting twenty persons in the waiting room. So I left home, spent the time at home and returned at 15:00. It was only me and one old man, who was bit deaf.

b) You could hear that in the consulting room was someone speaking with the nurse. The guy inside was saying goodbye for like five minutes. Anyway after several minutes the old man in the waiting room looked at me and said: "It is suspiciously silent in there, maybe it is empty, I shall knock on the door, so the nurse will know that we are waiting here." Well I said to him, that I can hear the voices there, so definitely there is someone in. He replied: "WHAT?" So I said it more loudly. On my standard (I am speaking bit quietly) I shouted at him the same sentence again. He looked bit surprised, because he did not hear anything in there, but what the hell.

c) There were really lots of leaflets in the waiting room (most of the commercials for medicines, etc.). One took my attention was printed by civic association "Cesta domů" (Way home) - they are mostly aimed on supporting families who are living with terminal patients, so that they can for example quit the job and fully support the dying family members at home. The leaflet was made really well, but it was all quite sad thing to read. Anyway I think that the idea of dying with people you love or who loved you, is very painful, but definitely much better than being in hospital with other patients.

d) today was the first "sick note" my doctor gave me in my life. Before that I was either student (not needed) or never been ill in my work life. Or I worked in places, where the "sick note" is so much bureaucracy they did not give a shit so I could be at home and work from home till I felt better. I am not cheating on this one and can be trusted.
Anyway I kinda like my doctor, she never prescribes things which she thinks are useless. Lot of people then are feeling like she is depriving them of medical care, but it is not true. I fully support her on waiting for couple of days more if I get better before she prescribes me the antibiotics. When I was a kid more than 20 years ago doctors gave away antibiotics just right when you entered the consulting room and said that you have sore throat or a cough. So I really hope I will get better by wednesdey. If not I will get the antibiotics, because I have fever for already a week and painkillers does not help and the cough is really bad at nights.
