A very big hai to everyone who are following my blog posts. Hope you all have read my previous post on our hunt for English-speaking gynaecologist in Tübingen. Today let’s have a fun-filled reading on how I got introduced to our gynaecologist.
On our day of appointment we woke early in spite of jetlag and got ready slowly, since hurried work will result in severe vomiting. I was very careful since the lunar cycle was around the clock. I have explained the effects of lunar cycle in my previous posts. And my regular hospitalization date was nearing. For morning breakfast I had prepared bread toast. I had around three to four slices gradually till I reached the hospital. As I said in the vermicelli payasam recipe, I ought to add thrice the amount of sugar to reach our taste level. Then we started our walk slowly and reached Ahornweg. The board at stop said bus will be in five minutes. When we were waiting, my eyes got filled with pain. Since for every step I take my health was deteriorating.
The bus came and I got in to the bus through the middle door and before getting seated, the driver started the bus and I fell on seat. From that day I used to get in through the front door since the driver will wait till I get seated. We travelled for minutes and reached the city center and got down at Nonnenhaus.
After walking for ten minutes we reached the hospital. The recptioninst wrote the mutterpass and asked us to wait. Though my insurance was on the way, since we had applied for insurance they gave an appointment for check up. The most difficult part of the hospital visits were that only our gynaecologist knew English. Somehow the nurses took blood samples for testing. Meanwhile they recorded the test results in mutterpass and it passed to doctors table. Soon after the doctor came out screaming ” who is Frau Gladson?”, since they call us by our surname. We stoop and she asked do you have ancestral history of diabetes?. With much tension I said yes, and with no time delay she asked the receptionist to carry out the next procedure. They spoke in German and I was so tensed till the we recognised the happenings. They took samples and it went to Universität klinikum. Before taking samples, they gave me a whole cup of glucose solution and after an hour they took blood samples. After all those procedures they asked us to come back on next week by same day. With much tension we came home and soon after our return I started to vomit till the blood accompanied and our next step was to get admitted for IV……
Let’s have a break….keep on guessing about the hospitalization in Germany…….
