Doctors prescribe a stronger antibacterial lozenges, I think. May binibigay sakin from office clinic looks like hindi over the counter hindi sikat eh. I also gargle warm water with salt. Get well sir.

ito pinupuntahan pag ulit-ulit na sakit at dapat na gamutin mismo cause not just the symptoms.

Meron isang politico na kinaiinisan ng buong pilipinas lalo na mga dilawan. Jan sya nagpapacheckup. At kita nyo naman sa edad nya 80++ nearing 90 healthing healthy pa.

By the way dapat naka-off cellphone at wag magsuot relo para hindi makainterfere sa pulse reading.

Thursday, February 9, 2012

we headed for Ongpin to visit Dr. Tan Ci Shou, another Manila secret and one of the best Naturopathic doctors this side of the China Sea. Dr. Tan practices traditional Chinese medicine, which involves unorthodox methods to the Western eye - feeling your pulse, checking your tongue, and asking you a few questions during the examination whilst looking incredibly disinterested with your condition. Oh, he also has a thing about mobile phones. The only way I can best describe it is that he's trained to read your Kirlian aura, and the mobile signals seem to interfere with that, which pisses him off. Don't even pretend you didn't read all the signs that say, "Please turn off your cellphone" and leave it on silent mode 'coz he knows it's still on and he won't see a patient until the stubborn idiot who thinks he can get away with it learns to follow instructions. "Ay, nakalimutan ko! Naka-silent lang pala." ("Oh, I totally forgot I left my phone on silent mode.") Try pulling that **** on him and he, along with the horde of patients at the make-shift clinic, will unceremoniously escort you out by way of Tagalog and Cantonese cursing.

But if you want a second opinion, or have a disease that's taking too long to cure, or whose drugs are detrimental to your health, I strongly recommend him. He's the guy doctors at St. Lukes recommend when they don't know what to do with you anymore. He's the guy the owner of St. Lukes goes to, as well as Mayor Lim and a few other politicians and celebrities. In fact, I was recommended to him by a politician's daughter whose mom regularly goes there, too. I had a really bad hypothyroid when I was constantly stressed working at Groupon Philippines (I think my neck ballooned to that of John Cena's at one point) and he made it behave in five days by making me drink disgusting tea. Disgusting, but super effective. What's that old Chinese proverb about yucky tea?

We parked near Binondo Church and walked to the Fu-Yong Mansion. I had warned J of turning his phone off beforehand, so he was set. The clinic wasn't as packed as it is during the rest of the week, as there were only a couple of people before us. Dr. Tan's son who also practices traditional Chinese medicine came in, and I ended up getting a consult from him. The last time I was there it was his sister who saw me (yes, they are all schooled in traditional Chinese medicine), and after handing him my old prescription of unintelligible Chinese characters, he proceeded to scribble down a new one for me which I think consists of all the same stinky herbs. He was pretty happy I take my medicine in tea form, because it goes straight to your bloodstream and does its magic right away.

Jericho was next, and since it was his first time there and his comprehension for Chinese Tagalog wasn't so good, one of the interpreters had to help him translate the good doctor's Tagalog into real Tagalog. Haha! The younger Dr. Tan proceeded to feel J's pulse, asking him his usual questions, "Ilang taon na ikaw? Ikaw ba ay malakas inom alak? Patingin ng dila mo. Ano pakilamdam mo?" (How old are you? Do you drink a lot of alcohol? Let me see your tongue. What are you feeling?) He had been suffering from an annoying cough and a case of the sniffles, both obstinate to go away after a round of Solmux and her American counterpart, Mucinex. Turns out he has a weak liver, which he should be wary of, as well as weak lungs, which are connected to his sinus, which explains the cough-and-cold double team... or something to that extent. "Ikaw pili tableta o laga?" J chose taking tablets. He knew what he'd be in for if he'd chosen the tea.

The younger Dr. Tan scribbled down his prescription in unintelligible Cantonese and handed J a few pieces of paper on food he can't eat. After saying thank you and paying the P400 consultation fee, we made our way to Ching Tay Chinese Drugstore, the Hogwarts' potion class supplier around the corner. The little Chinese "pharmacy" is a hodge-podge of dried roots, flowers, stems, mushrooms, bark and what have you, all stuffed away in dusty little boxes and glass shelves. I showed J the fierce little Chinese grandma that runs the place, kicking it old school with her abacus and shouting orders at her staff. My prescription was its usual P500 for a five-day supply of tea taken twice a day. Not bad, especially if you think of the more costly alternative. And with this being all tea, the only side effect I have to worry about is going to the bathroom a lot. J's 4-day supply of tablets were a mere P300, and his coughing and sniffling went away soon after.

Have you tried garggling with saltwater? Warm dapat.

Do it upon waking up, every after meal, and before you sleep.
