FollowToday is Day 13 since Sherilyn injured her foot while doing an Architecture Site Analysis at a park. After a week on oral meds to reduce swelling and two sessions of physiotherapy, there’s been no sight of any improvement. It’s gotten worse. The foot is still swollen and she complains that it’s still very painful.
When she went for physiotherapy yesterday, the therapist advised Sherilyn to go back to the doctor (MO at the A&E) who first attended to her to get a referral to see an orthopedic doctor.
So we’ll be going back to SJMC tomorrow morning. If an MRI is recommended, Sherilyn will most likely be warded for a day and hopefully we can get our insurer to pay for it. An MRI done privately ain’t cheap and if Sherilyn needs admission, the bill will be in the thousands.
It’s going to be a long day at the hospital tomorrow. And Cass will have to settle her lunch herself when she comes home from school as there’ll be no one at home. I really dread spending hours on end at the hospital. Well, at least SJMC is a 5-star hospital and I can have my meals there or enjoy a cuppa at a cafe. And I get to sit down. At HKL (Urology & Nephrology Unit), it’s a totally different scenario and most times, Cass and I had to stand for half a day in a crowded hallway to wait for her turn to see the doctor.
