Unable to ride since cataract surgery

Wheels of Happiness

I have been unable to ride since the cataract surgery because of unbalanced vision.   The left eye is clear; the right eye is not.  So sometimes it is clear and sometimes it is not.   I better wait until the right eye is done and that is on October 1.   Right now am just being careful.   The vids and other advice from those who had the operations said:   no hard exertions, no exercise and no SI.  


If ever I can resume riding by November of December.

A medical malpractice, wrong drugs? May contraindications

What do you call the disease arising from MDs mistake?  Especially  when they charge skyhigh.  Is medical malpractice practiced here in PHL?

My partner was operated on the beginning of the week and, a defunct organ causing discomfort was removed and released in the middle of the week   She was discharged noontime, however by midnight she was brought back to the hospital due to worrisome palpitation which was later on found out to be due from a new drug that was very good for treating pain but was bad for the heart and very dangerous to some individuals

    1.  Why was the medication regime not reviewed for CI and interaction;
    2.  There are 3 Mds of various specialty who attended to wifey.  Who is to be responsible;
    3.   There was a matter of fact dismissal by an attending  main MD and even joked that the complications was caused by me.  Ha6
     4.  How can this be prevented?
     5.  Why us shouldering the treatment for their mistakes.   I thought Primus Non Cicerre?   Hippocrates (hypocrites) Code.   Where na 

The ER fees for procedure (why entire procedure, when she was prechecked prior to the operations.  and why so many charges for procedure and supplies. ?   Did they really use the supplies.

In the end the pf and hospital fees an were nearly half a million,  The pf was included in the bill officially paid, but paid directly to the specialist via check(no tax withheld).   This specialty avoid paying taxes do they?   And medical malpractice like the ones that happened to the wifey is not yet popular here.  ?!.  Somebody made a mistake here and who is responsible.

Had a grain of sand operated on yesterday at a high end MM hospital

Wheels of Happiness

One year after the accident happened in Pagbilao Quezon, in February when we climbed Bitukang Manok, after much prodding and plenty of failed scheduling I got the cyst on my elbow removed by a popular surgeon.  Surprise surprise, he charged me on ony P100.00 as PF for the operation.  He was a  MBAH student of the undersigned in 2006 and he said he learned much from my class on entreprepreneurship.

Thank you Doctor for the almost free procedure.

He did the procedure at about noontime yesterday and assisted by a Dr. resident  in surgery from CDO.

Thank you the Doctor, the hospital staff who assisted me and my two daughters who accompanied me to the hospital and gave me moral support

The culprit was a grain of sand about 4 mm across (or gravel) that was encapsulated (my body acted like an oyster who was getting rid of an irritant by coating the same with mother of pearl  The wound, the rash was not thoroughly cleaned, hence the  cyst..   

Next problem to be removed is the soreness of the left shoulder which was fractured.   Some say there is an adhesion and it feels some stiffness if I rotate the same counter clockwise,

We shall overcome
