At Least We Know What She's Gonna Look Like When She's Pregnant.

GO READ THE SPOON THEORY! Go go go! Beautifully written piece to describe how it felt like for me for the past month.

And now, I'm gonna emphasize on the fact that I'm not pregnant. It was just a whole lotta water retention and swelling everywhere, even my face became huge. But cute what, right? I lost 2 kgs overnight after taking Prednisolone. Yes, finally. I hate to think what I'm doing to my liver, but ah well, as long as it keeps me going, why should I complain? Anyway, if I stop now, I might get a flare, again or worse, a comatose (like what the doctor warned)?

Kay, second opinion in GH suggests that I have SLE too. Or diagnose, or whatever. I did four blood tests in a period of one month, seen four to five doctors who all seemed to give the same diagnosis (except the first one who told me I had RA and asked me to patiently wait for a month and do nothing while swallowing painkillers and wait for my immune system to balance off), got hospitalized for four days, missed school for nearly two weeks in total, been in pain until I couldn't get out of bed, sat in a wheelchair for the first time in my life because I couldn't walk and watched Captain America on first day of the premiere. :P Kla, I loved the ending, :D

And now I'm fineeee! [A bit woozy and nauseous at times, but fine]  :D Steroids, they work like MAGIC.

I'm not on drugs k. At least not the bodybuilder type of Steroids. Carefully under the doctor's prescription one lah. Though I have to take it for years to suppress my immune system. (I hate to think what I'm gonna look like two years from now.) Oops! No sharing food from now on. :(

Imma be a NINJA! Wrapped from top to toe in black cloth so I won't melt under the hot UV exposed sun.

Now I'm gonna rant on how beh syok I am with the government. 3 specialists share one room one desk in the consultation room in GH each having their own patients? Siao ar? Like no money like that. Penang is easily the second biggest city in Malaysia. Pfft. Dunno how to take care of their own citizens. How to become developed country if got sick people everywhere? :X

And this is what I do when I get bored --->

Looks nice right? Too bad I can't have fruits because it causes swelling? Along with a whole long list of other potentially harmful foods compiled by the SLE counselor, Ayurvedic doctor and thank God for the internet.
