The hypochondriac in him had felt some uneasiness in his liver.
So off they went to Pathlab where they presented their pre-paid vouchers, plus urine (self-administered) and blood (lady-assisted) samples.
On the drive home after a mamak breakfast:
Wife: (ultra-sweetly).... Baaaang....
T: (just as sweetly).... Yes, Yaaang....
Wife: Could it be possible........
T: Yaa....?
Wife: that you could have .......
T: Naaawh..... you of all people should know thaaat
Wife: umm... Baang... know what?
T: I don't have ........ a secret bank account? hahahahahah!
Wife: Well at least you're jovial .... even after the run-in with so-and-so ........
T: So what do you think I could have, Yaang?
Wife: ummm ..... high blood pressure?
T: Naaawh.... I was 110/70 the last time the doctor measured
Wife: Isn't that high for you? When you were younger you were always on the low side? The doctor always thought you were anaemic.
T: That's right. Why the sudden interest? I think I'm relatively healthier and fitter now than I've ever been.
Wife: Well....... I want you to NOT take your eyes off the road... but to just peek, OK?
T: Hmmm.... you naughty old lady....
Wife: Eeeessshh you dirty old man... it's the PLASTER lah ......the plaster that lady put on your vein.......... is drenched with blood .......and so is your sleeve............just peek, just peek!!!
T: Yaaang, my arm is numb ..... (shaking his arm)
Wife: Take a look at mine (rolling her sleeve), there's only a dot of blood
T: Yeah lah, I think it's my liver .... something's wrong...
Wife: And your smile is crooked....
T: I'm not smiling.........
Wife: You're having a stroke then
T: (parking outside the house) I may have high blood..... and my blood's not clotting.... I need a LOVING stroke....
Wife: Quick let's get inside....
T: You serious?
Wife: Yes! I need to take a picture of your plaster before it drops off by itself... since it's so wet .......... for my blog lah
T: Owh...
Got a diagnosis?
