Just to share my experience with the
TCM@Havelock road.
Bb is 17 months, due to always down with flu and running nose every 2-3months, so decided to bring her to see TCM, after reading so many reviews on forum.
Last Tue, bb is down with fever following by cough, running nose and phlegm.
We went to see GP, prescribe medicines for cough, running nose and phlegm. We have Paracetemol and Neurofen at home.
Last Fri, bb’s fever is still on and off since last Tue, so brought her to see PD. PD prescribe us, Singular and Antibiotic. He told me that my bb has Bronchitis, but not so serious. He asked us to come back for review on Monday.
Last Sat, 1st visit to
TCM@Havelock, I have told the doctor my bb condition (fever, cough, running nose and phlegm) and bronchitis issue and emphasize my bb cough through out the night, the cough really annoy her sleep. She said, will do the treatment on her fever 1st so that day, only Tuina and nose spa without any oral medication but fever water to massage bb 1 bottle. She asked us to stop giving bb running nose medicine because it will worst my bb phlegm condition but still giving the rest medicines included antibiotic.
Bb really doesn’t like Tuina. She screamed during Tuina.
Last Sun, Bb’s fever still on and off over the night, so we went back to see her on Sunday. A lot of parents were in the clinic when we reached there around 1.20pm. We told the doctor, bb still has fever and her cough is bad. She still decided to give treatment on fever. So again Tuina and Nose spa, this time she decided to give us oral medication for fever and fever water 2 bottles for massage bb.
Because bb’s fever, they assigned us to the back room, which is near pantry. After nose spa, we were waiting there quite some time but no one come to Tuina bb. BB is very fussy already, so I carried her and walked to the in front receptionist. I saw many parents which behind our q, their bb is on Tuina.
I walked and passed through the doctor’s room (which was open at that time). The doctor asked the man who always in reception area. He told the doctor, because we were at back room so they have overlooked us and the doctor asked me not to walk around clinic as bb’s fever. So I went back to the back room and told my hubby this incident.
After a while, an auntie came and performed the Tuina for my bb. Same with her 1st visit, she really didn’t like the Tuina, scream all the time.
After Tuina, bb in a very bad mood and screamed… that time we were in front of the reception area. Bb kept screaming till the doctor came out, they just made a casual remark said bb wants to sleep. So we quickly paid and left the clinic.
Yesterday which is Monday, we went back to see PD again for review, a shock my bb condition is getting worse. PD said my bb’s lung has wheezing, so she was on nebulizer last night and gave another week Singular and need to review again on Thursday.
I have decided to give up on Tuina coz bb really doesn’t like and I’m very heart pain when she was screaming.
