I knew my months of agony and despair is finally going to be over when i saw the expression on the doctor's face. Had an appointment with the doctor at the National Heart Centre yesterday. And yea, its a relieve to hear that there is nothing wrong with me. Without much facial expression, the doctor just simply apologised by saying: " Well its good. (Pause*) Your test results are very normal. (Long Pause*) I'm sorry that you have to make so many trips down here. I cant find anything wrong with you so i guess you are just born with fast heart beat. My nurse will issue you a copy of the medical report and you are discharged from here." When i take a look at the medical report, it states that im suffering from sinus tachycardia with infrequent atrial ectopics but within normal limits of which my slowest heartbeat recorded was 56bpm and fastest was 146 bpm but all were within normal range.
At the point of time, I was feeling happy and yet angry with the doctor. I'm wondering does he know that his signature and a statement on the tests order form had stopped me from working for 3 months of which i nearly lost my job and also the loss of my 3 months of salary? However, i can say this can be a blessing in disguise cos next time when i look for jobs, i no longer need to undergo this tests anymore and i can declare that this is just a congenitial condition. Anyway, submitted the medical report to the staff clinic straight after the appointment and hope i can hear good news from them soon. Cross my fingers*
