We were all set to meet our new doctor here in Tokyo next week but I had other ideas. I have been sick for about 5 days and finally gave in and said ok to see a doctor. I'm ok, have a kidney infection and will be fine in a week or so. The company has us set up with an International clinic and great care, but different. Signing in they asked for a history, basically my age, sex and where I live. No questions on medical history. Ok, I guess the doctor will ask. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguobTtHNNXpYpA6-ipJIsHIyMm7CBb0IPPpXuWrz13AC7IDnhokQd7qXpKXr5Se004KODBhkrBtLY17csvNWYwwl-AHICCQszcVwDvls2iGJoy_yX8jONXhHBxOuUMuuB9M1B-ec1IX8o/s320/IMG_0184.jpg)
I then hear my name over a speaker and told to go to a numbered room. The doctor was German and listened, but thought I might have been out running in the sun too much after a few questions. We talked and then he examined me, no undressing, no nurse in room and said I had an athletes heartbeat. Liked hearing that for sure. Off for tests and then waited for results. Back to doctor and he prescribed meds, forgot to say I was never weighed or asked for my weight. Oh, well haven't heard of the japanese people dropping from prescription issues,so happy to get some help and onto being healthy.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguobTtHNNXpYpA6-ipJIsHIyMm7CBb0IPPpXuWrz13AC7IDnhokQd7qXpKXr5Se004KODBhkrBtLY17csvNWYwwl-AHICCQszcVwDvls2iGJoy_yX8jONXhHBxOuUMuuB9M1B-ec1IX8o/s320/IMG_0184.jpg)
We had taken a cab to the office, but I wanted to walk a bit and we took the train home. On the way we were treated to seeing a buddhist temple celebrating Obon(more later) and the lovely decorations. We were outside the gate, so my husband thought it was funny to take a photo of me sneaking around.

Then a reminder of home or shall I say one of our homes.
