Every time I'm here I stare at this poster for longer than I should: "Understanding Allergies" by Schering. Descriptions of allergens and how the human body deals with them as well as images of those, reactions of, and the processes involved with those allergens. The poster is sticky taced to the slightly darker than robin's egg blue walls, continuing on until striking much darker blue cabinets and continuing on again. There's very little as far as instrumentation here save the blood pressure measurer, a "sharps collector" full of test strips and pink finger prickers, and a thick, pen-like device plugged into a green, then white base with a glowing green indicator on the front. Well, there are also the four boxes of differing sized Diamond Grip, powder-free latex examination gloves, but they don't seem like they count.
I write this inane and dull and pointless description in a vain attempt to stay awake. I was sitting in the lobby, watching Casino Royale with a group of people for over an hour, and have now been in this examination room for nearly another half hour. Words are slowed from my brain to page as my blood sugar continues to drop despite my lack of movement.
Then the doctor came in fro a moment, only to leave again...
