i dont like taiwan's medical attention! yes, it's cheaper than singapore but yet, there's no caring attention given! did i mention the gynecologist was not giving attention to his patient (ie ME!!) and then i had another 'better' one who kept pushing those scary scenarios for more tests to be done?
i've been doing some research and asking around on the first trimester tests. it turns out that amniocentesis can be second options, after One-stop Clinic for Assessment of Risk (OSCAR)! i'm not particularly worried about miscarriage rate but it's the timing for the tests! i've specifically told the gynecologist that i need to fly back to Singapore for 2nd trimester (24 June - 16 Sep), yet he kept telling me to take amniocentesis test which can only be taken after week16 (22July) and the result will require 3weeks hence we are looking at week20 (12Aug) before i can fly! that's already halfway of my second trimester! did he or did he not listen to my travel plan? i even told him straight that my hubby - joe is not always around in kaohsiung, hence i need to be back to Singapore for family support and care.
seriously i am looking at early/ mid July to fly back! though i have not change my airticket yet, but i know i have to do it SOON, by 18May!
