Disease List of Walking Hospital

When people ask me “how are you”, I say “fine”, a short reply but a huge lie, because I am a walking hospital where in every corner disease lurks, from head to toe the list is below. The head splits in hypertensive headache morning till night One eye’s vision is hazy with AMD, the other’s with cataract The red nose runs the whole winter with spells of sinusitis The ears are blocked to near deafness by obstinate hard wax The aching shoulders have been frozen long by spondylosis The blocked heart paining in angina has two stents though The stomach secretes burning acid more than necessary The liver sends artery-full of LDL to the stenosed heart The sluggish kidneys have built bags under the eyes The bloated prostate breaks sleep thrice at night The knee joints abrade painfully in osteoarthritis The big toes swell red in ceaseless bouts of gout. I am still walking my hospital, searching for a patient doctor (GP) who will take charge and cure me. July 29, 2019 Contest : Writing Challenge 3, July 2019 - List Sponsor : Dear Heart
