| I've never formally had a physical so when Onions hospital offered one to its employees, I tagged along and got one for free.  Seeing as the Chinese medical system records are still done mostly by paper, and without photo ID, I got a physical.  My official name is as a relative of Onions.  You start by filling out your medical booklet! | 
|  | 
| And it's run as a bunch of stations.  Doctors and nurses all gather at the hospital and everything is done in a morning.  First stop, blood sample. | 
|  | 
| Onions got us through the short lines first....blood pressure 130/80.  Negative on everything else....but I'm not exactly sure what I was being asked. | 
|  | 
| Eyes and ear check.  Everything normal. | 
|  | 
| Then things began to slow down.  Lines for each station, but they moved. | 
|  | 
| First line was for the ultrasound.  No clue what it says.  But when the report comes back, Onions will interpret or I'll ask a Chinese teacher. | 
|  | 
| The ONLY time something was computerized was the bar code sticker for my chest x-ray. | 
|  | 
| I forget what happened here.  I figured out that this was the "surgical" report.  I think this is where the doctor felt my glands and had me swallow for him as he felt my throat. | 
|  | 
| The quickest EKG scan ever.  Onions had his printout at 9:58:56.  They had him off the table, I laid down and had the sensors on me and my printout was at 9:59:24.  But more importantly, what's going on with the bottom graph?  Why is there a big huge weird bump? | 
|  | 
| The doctors interpretation..... | 
|  | 
| Last stop....I think was internal medicine.  It's the one with a stethoscope. | 
Once we finished at all the stations we turned in our booklets, like turning in a final exam, and we'll wait for the report.  Total time?  Two hours.
