Those of you listened to CAGcast #45 know that I am feeling pretty sick this week. After a few days of (what seems have just been) a really bad cold, we decided it was time to go the doctor.
Mrs. Cheapy met up with me after her workday to take me to my first ever trip to a doctor in Japan. Unfortunately, the "real" doctor was closed so we went next door to the ear, nose, and throat doctor, as that was "close enough".
After taking my temerature, the doctor proceeded to stick all kinds of things up my nose, including metal rods which I'm pretty sure came very close to giving me a frontal labotomy. To say it was uncomfortable is an understatement. After that, he then directed me to machine with several "stations", each of which has a rubber hose which dispenses medicine up the nose. I also got some antibiotics, which is probably all I needed in the first place.
