Its been 18 days into the year 2015 and nothing good have been happening.

Ranting posting here I come.

The year has not been well for me since the year have started. The health issues are getting from bad to worse for me. The frequency of having chestpains have been more frequent den in the past year.

Everything is getting from bad to worse. The heart is not feeling well, the diabetic is not under control and I'm getting more and more fat.

The doctors have been making noises about my diet amd everything but sometimes I really do not understamd what is happening. Cutting down on the food intake, havimg some slight exercises like walking home from work isn't really helping.

The doctor ask me to eat lesser, but when I eat lesser I become hungry even more frequently den usual. So in the end I'll eat more den I should because I'm constantly eating like every hour.

But sometimes they dun understand the things I'm going through. They keep scolding me for what I'm doing like eating alot but they are not me, they do not kmow what I'm going through.

Of course I understand the phrase " If you dun help urself, how can we help u ! "

I totally understand all these but I really duno what is causing it.

The doctor always ask me to do more bloodtests and have more records on my blood sugar monitiring. And of course I understand all these things are important to my health.

But the doctors do not understand the financial burden of all these things.

Every 12 weeks I will have my regular medical appointment at the Diabetic Centre. A regular bloodtest which they draw like 3 tubes of blood will require me to pay like between $100 to $150. The regular consultation with the doctor will cost me another $100 to $150, and the prescription for my insulin medicine can easily cost me $500 to $700 depending on the duration between my medical appointments.

And I have not mention about the bloodtest kits I have at home. Everytime I wanna do a bloodtest, it would require me to use a needle to prick my finger and a test strip to drip my blood on it so that the machine can detect my blood sugar and give me the results I need.

One prick of the needle and one of the test strip will have a combine cost of $2. You guys will think, " aiya, its just $2 mah, nowadays one cup of coffee would have cost more den that."

But what if you have to do it at least 3 times a day and a maximum of 6 times a day. Giving it the least is 3 times a day which is $6 per day. And for 3 months it will be $180.

And now its time to do the math. Each time when I go for my medical appointment, I would nees to spend ( $100 + $100 + $500 + $180 = $880 ) which is the mimimum or the maximum of ( $150 + $150 + $700 + $360 = $1360 ).

I'm just a guy who earns 2k per month. In 3 months without any expenditure my salry is 6k, and the maximum I need to fork out for my medical is 20% of what I'm earning. I dun earn like few thousands like those doctors who just sits inside the consultation room and entertains u for 10 minutes and you will have to pay them.

And now I got double problem as my heart also have problems but it doesn't seem to be as serious as it seems but anything concerning the heart must be a standard level of danger which means there is more expenditure in the medical bills I already have.

Haizzzzz, suddenly I have no more mood to continue. I shall stop the ranting and continue another day.

On a sidenote, congratulations to Jay Chou and Hannah ! Its their big day today !
