My Doc Is On Holiday
Found this hilarious pic and had to get it printed out, so we went to the city. Well actually because also...
2010 it started either due to my own stupidity (who hops on the push-bike in minus-temps and drives as fast as can, too?!) or it was a virus, the doc I went to couldn´t say, but I got a conjunctivitis.
She gave me a med my eyes didn´t tolerate, it was a long story with weeks on and off the job and hurting eyes.
Wednesday my eyes were red. Oh-oh.
Tuesday it was warm and very humid, my eyes weren´t dry at all, seemingly. And hence I used near to no eye-drops.
Was that the reason or did I touch something someone with a virus had touched and off we go again?
(I am very careful)
So off to the city it was on Thursday – Friday at the doc they close at lunchtime and I work in Wolfsburg, then weekend...
I know what med I need and hoped they´d just give me a receipt for just in case.
No. You have to see the doc. But yours is on holiday.
Noooooooo…. (to both).
Mind you, I wasted hours of my life in the waiting area there – with appointment. And my doc knows my “story”, right?
Ingo left to grab some food and I sat down. For about 7 minutes.
Then visual test.
Waiting for about 15 minutes, in to the doc, a young Indian with a strong accent.
He had my file open, said, gosh, since 2010?!, examined my eyes very closely, had a test on virus even (new?) – all good, no conjunctivitis, just extremely dry eyes.
He asked me to show him what I take, opened a drawer, took out 3 samples, said, I tested these, they´re good, try them.
Me: I get that at the pharmacy?
Yes, but they´re expensive …
I know….
He turned to a box, gave me another big bunch of samples of another product and smiled big.
I was out in about 30 minutes all in all, knowing my eyes are ok, thanking the staff there big :-)
And I won´t need to buy anything for my eyes for months – and I guess I´ll try to get him, be there a next time (sorry, Dr. L)!
Sometimes you´re just lucky, huh?
Thank you, wet Tuesday!

That's good news Iris, thankfully my last eye check up was all good too, such a relief oui :)
Oh, mais oui, Grace, the eyes are an important part of life.
