Of Superdel's woes

Hmm.

Today I noticed that Superdel had a rather irritated note stuck unto her msn nick, so I quipped up and asked her all about it. Apparently, she had taken some alcohol (not sure how much, but anyway) and she had an allergic reaction to it. A trip down to the doctor (she works at SGH) proved to be disastrious when the lady doc gave her a dosage of medicine which, though was meant to clear up her allergy reaction, included inside a very strong drowsing agent.

Since the doc had proved to be rather clueless as to the amount she was administrating, she gave Superdel a huge dose, and the moment Superdel tried to get up, she collapsed to her own utter horror, momentarily paralysed.

Now... aren't doctors trained for at least 5 years before they are placed within a housemanship before being finally certified as qualified doctors? From what Superdel told me, that doc is fookin retarded.

Another gripe which took its toll on her is the fact that she could not take sick leave due to 1. her immediate supervisor was away overseas (wtf??) and 2. that her boss was much too busy to deal with such minor issues. I mean COME ON! Superdel works in the field of medical research, and her experiments are incredibly case-sensitive... such work requires full concentration, and unless I'm much mistaken, not a worker who had been overdosed on anti-allergy the day before and was (at the point of conversation) suffering from pains, giddiness and God-knows-what-else.

A while later she told me she had gone back to that same dumb-arsed doc, who upon notification of the side-effects asked Superdel 'so what do you expect me to do?'.

Now, that is plain ignorant. YOU'RE THE FUCKING DOCTOR, YOU TELL ME HOW TO SOLVE IT.

Crikes. And that wasn't the end of it... that doc told Superdel that she should have seen it coming... and when I saw what she wrote... I was like wtfh. I mean, Superdel might be good at her chemistry, but hey.. commercial medicine is a whole different ballgame, and anyway.. she collapsed after the drug administration! You'd expect her to read the bloody label? Get outta here!

btw this post was a bitching session done on behalf of Superdel, who at the point of conversation was too weak to blog.
