Me: Doc, why would you give me eyedrops that will dilate my pupil causing blurriness for a week? How am I suppose to work with this poor eyesight?

Doc: Why would you eat foods you're supposed to avoid prompting me to prescribe you medicine that would cure your swollen right eye and would temporarily impair your vision for a week?

Me: ... (thinking how to rebutt)

Doc: You know what's good and not for you. You cannot complain if you don't like it's consequence. 

Me: ... (2 pts for doc) I thought it was okay to eat it because it's been years since I last ate one. 

Doc: Well, you know it's effect now. And please consider that iritis is recurring.

Me: Oh! I will no longer eat SAANG doc.

Doc: That only? How about lettuce, cabbage and any other legumes? How about prawns and seafoods? How about chicken skin and nuts?

Me: (to self) okay doc, i won't eat. (to doc) I will avoid eating those doc. Thank you. 

Doc: I have decreased the dosage of your drops. Your pupil will be dilated in the next three days. Visit me when you still can't read by Friday. 

Me: Yes, doc. Thank you.

Doc: Do you take vitamins for the eyes?

Me: Yes, centrum because it's complete from A to Z. 

Doc: (shocked) Lutein's good for the eyes, take 1 daily.

Me: Thank you doc. Bye for now. (good for the eyes, not good for the wallet/pocket  and the drops? too expensive, like P450 for some mL.)

And so I went home with my blurry eyes and heavy heart. I still cant read and will wait til Friday. I'm getting used to 750% screen resolution. Everything's extremely big but I have no choice. 

I'm sorry Berna, Janice and Pearl. I have asked a random lady to read your text messages. I even overheard her say, "She has an iphone and is illiterate." 

Haaay, unfortunately, it's not my business to explain what has happened with my eye. Geez! Gibati ko ug tumang tagam. Hala kaon pa ug bawal aron sunod, dili lang kay sa mata ang arthritison, sunod kay ilong, dunggan ug ilok na pod. Wew!
