9am: Dad went to ENT Department for hearing test and check up.

The nurse 1st dug out some ear wax in dad's ear and after 5 mins, they did a hearing test on both his ears.

It seems that, after the dig, his left ear which is normally quite unclear, sounds much clearer.

However, the hearing test shows that the Right & the Left hearing results, differs alot. Right is perfectly okie, while the Left ear is much poorer then the Right ear.

Doc feels that, it may be affected by the nerves at the brain.

Doc arranged Dad to go for an X-Ray Scan on the brain nerves on 16 Oct '06.

Dad also went to the collect the medicine (Enhanced Vitamin B) to nourish his brain nerves.
2 packs, small pack cost only $2.10, while the other pack (2 bottles of 30 tablets each) costing $57.50 for 2 bottles.

At 11am, Dad then went to queue for Clinic J to see the Dietitian. Only at 11.45 am, we saw the Dietitian. The conversation between Dad and the Dietitian seems so fake and untruth because, Dad seems to be "entertaining" her.

If Dad continues to be like this and so uncooperative, there is really very little that we can do to help him.
He says that:
-> He eats outside food always. (But Mum has been cooking for her every meal nowadays)
-> He eats fruits, 1 apple/day. (But I don't see him eat any, only lately, Mum cut half for him)
-> Homecook food always use Canned Food. (When did Mum use Canned Food!!!!!!)

Doc advises him to:
Eat less saltish stuffs, such as salty vege, salted egg, less gravel,
Drink Yakult & En Cal Plus Milk to improve his weight masses
Eat more fruits, 2 servings per day.
Eat less canned food!!!
