What’s Wrong With Me For The Past 3 Weeks
19 Jun 2007
Am wondering if I should be posting about this. After all it’s not about love and marriage, nor is it about dating and relationships. Just an update on my health.
But, I thought, maybe my readers may be wondering what’s it with the long wait in between each post for the past 3 weeks. Has Kloudiia gone missing?
Well, truth is I have been struggling to get well from a flu virus! Sob sob
Supposedly recuperating, but I was struck again. And when I was really getting much better, the greedy, and slightly starting-to-take-my-recovery-for-granted side of me tookover on last Thursday. 2 dumplings and I was back to the sore throat status the very next day which developed to bronchitis.
As if that’s not enough, strangely and till now I’m still having all the question marks in my head, I spotted some red dots at the back of my thigh.
Thought it must be dust, I applied my normal cream and didn’t pay much attention. Not to know that they will multiply to even more red dots and expand to a bigger area, even my left thigh was affected two days later. The colour don’t seem right (It’s a very dark kind of red). Unlike all the rashes I’ve gotten before. (Yes I have a sensitive skin condition)
Took a photo down (but too gross to be shown here trust me) and went to see a doctor, who suspected they were bug bites and so long as I stop any form of contact with the suspected place, plus the cream I should be fine in a few days.
I was far from being fine. It got worse. Now those dots have turned into “mini water bubbles” and the entire area has now kind of lumped together to form one big patch. So I’m walking around with few big patches of red at the back of my thighs. Not to mention the itchiness that caused me to have very bad sleep (as I had to refrain from scratching them) and to lose sleep as my cough got worse in the night.
Another visit to the doctor who have to refer me to a skin specialist. Hopefully my query can be answered tomorrow morning.
Oh, I forgot to mention my heatiness has resulted in some ulcers in my mouth. So, there is itch, pain and cough. Ha, nice combination aren’t they?
But, though it seems like I’m in a pretty bad shape, I’m not going to think this way. Am always doing my best to keep my spirits high, as it not only helps in my recovery, it also eases the worries of my family and my boyfriend too.
Ok, so I’ll take more rest, and just deal with the health challenges one by one. I’m sure they’ll be gone in no time. Cos I’m not letting them stay here for long. No way!
Till then….
Stay healthy, stay chirpy, and be in peace my friends.
P.S I guess what makes me “sad” the most is I can’t spend as much time as I like with my friend who came from Hong Kong, and this is her first visit to Singapore. Hmm…
