It was past midnight on a Sunday when there was a worrying swelling
on the wound, together with what looked like pus buildup. Gosh, how
can there be infection after nearly 2 months of healing progress?
Feelings of dread washed over me. Emailed some pictures to the doctor
despite feeling bad that I was disturbing him at such a late hour. He
replied 5 minutes later (bless his heart!) and though the picture wasn't clear, he wanted me to get checked in
the morning. He would
arrange for somebody else to see me as he was operating,. That gave a smidgen of comfort.
Reported
at 9.30 am the next morning but had to wait a while before getting seen
by Dr A, a rather young doctor. He didn't think it was serious but
scheduled me for an MRI the next morning at 8 am, to be on the safe
side. It would cost a whopping $1,200!
