Dr. Carnero is abroad pala and will be out of the country until October. Ganun?! Syempre they didn't tell us when we went to Medical City Marikina last Saturday. Pinabalik pa si Andy ng Monday, just to tell him to come back and see this other doctor today. Labo.
So while PNoy was taking his oath, nandoon kami sa clinic consulting Dr. Miranda. As expected, pina-xray yung knee and better kung mapa-MRI din. (MRI betchabygollywow ang mahal)
Negative naman for fracture. Malamang nabugbog lang yung ligaments, like before. Pero sobrang swollen. That's why the doctor decided to aspirate. Aspirate is like getting an injection, pero pabaligtad. Extracted from Andy's knee was 72cc of blood! Datsalottablood!
My understanding is -- may nasugatan sa loob and since walang sugat sa labas, na stuck siya inside. Right after the aspiration, the swelling was practically gone.
At magkano naman ang ginastos? P3,000 for the aspiration plus consultation, P11 for the syringe ek, P1,800+ for the antibiotics/anti-maga drugs. Isama mo na dyan yung P700+ for the x-ray and P600 for the crutches. Next Wednesday, check-up uli ni Andy.
There goes the money I was saving for my Citibank utang.
