Doctor : *pump pump pump left hand*

Machine : *pump pump pump right hand*

Doctor : OK, don't tell me the reading yet, let's do it again.

*pump pump pump*

Papi : Hey, they matched. So my machine is accurate.

Doctor : So, that means you are having white-coat hypertension. Hypertension caused by anxiety when seeing the doctor.

Papi : phew... I took readings at home and it was normal, everytime.

Doctor : Yeah, but still you have to monitor it for me at home. Take readings at different time and record it down. Come back to see me in 2 weeks. I want to see the report.

Papi : ok, ok....


On the way back.....

Mami : Why when you go see doctor, your blood pressure went up ah?

Papi : Don't know. White coat hypertension wor.

Mami : You like the doctor, is it? Excited, is it?

Papi : Nonsense lar...

Mami : kih kih kih...just kidding only.
