International Medical Care

I've been listening to the sound of my flatmate hobbling around on his crutches all week. Clack clack. Clack clack. Clack clack. Amusing for me, but not so much for him. So, he sought a second opinion from a Singapore doctor today. Turns out that it was only a sprain! That's good news for his social life (which was sure to suffer on account of the inconvenience of the crutches), but bad news for his wallet (an emergency cast and crutches aren't cheap!). Who knows whether it was an honest mistake or an intentional overdiagnosis. Pretty funny though.
