My weekend was wasted… all because of food poisoning. I’m not sure where I ate the bad food, but I’m sure it was not yesterday’s food… It must be the food I took two or three days earlier.

It all started yesterday evening with diarrhea… and it continues through the night… I was not sure I had a food poisoning that time. I thought it was just a mild diarrhea coz I was not having bad stomach ache or anything. So to sooth myself I tried a few remedies… it was the usual traditional medicine… better known as carbon in modern medicine.

When I woke up this morning, I was really weak… I just take my breakfast and continue laying on the sofa and tried to sleep… but it’s quite hard to sleep although I’m really weak. At the end, I went to see doctor. At the clinic, the doctor check my stomach by pressing on it… he said, he can’t feel anything… it must be food poisoning… my stomach full of air!… So he gave me 4 types of medicine including the re-hydration salt which I have it and taken earlier. It cost me RM40 for the medicines… I wonder if medical insurance covers stomach ache… I doubt it… but at government hospital, the medicine should be free coz it is part of the social security benefits for the people… and as a civil servant. But I usually don’t go to government hospital coz they are crowded… so I go to private clinic which is near my house too.
