I finally did it today. DIdn't get it done last time because I didn't have my passport.
I went into a different room for every section of the exam.
First they took my blood and unine. The urine cup with tiny and had to lid. And on top of that you had to walk through the lobby carrying your little full cup. eww.
The next room put a bunch of suction cups on my chest, arms, and right leg. Then they watched the little line blip around. My slow heart beat came as a little surprise. I always slow it down a little bit when people check it. Good times.
The third room took my weight and height. Then covered my form with stamps. Like 20 of them, really.
The forth room gave me an ultrasound. Good news! I don't have a baby. Bad news. Apperently I have a stone in my lung. I really thought they meant kidney, but we even looked it up in the dictionary. I have never ever heard of such a thing. But it's small so I don't need to worry as long as I don't smoke...
The fifth room gave me a chest X-ray, sans lead protection. hmmmm
And finally when we left they gave me a little medical kit. Now this thing is great. At first I was laughing, but when I opened it I was floored! There are some q-tips, bandaids, cream, etc, and lots and lots of pills. Literally everything from heart to head meds. I'm not making this up. It's beautiful! I have no idea what I would do with heart medication though. But really there were ten different kinds of pills, about ten of each kind. 100 pills.
Not in America, not in america I tell you.
(But really a stone in your lung? I googled it for a bit, nothing. Does anyone know anything about this? Any way to get the sucker out? Loq, you know random things... ever heard of this?)
It's good to hear you passed your medical exam.(that's what you were trying to do right?)I don't know anything about lung stones, sorry about that. I've been enjoying reading through your blog ever since I found out about it. It's encouraging seeing the Lord build a testimony through your life. Keep seeking the Lord friend. kiotsukete!
