curse u .. u damm corn!

i m a happier man now.. haha

some background info: for 2 months or so, i have lived with a corn growing in the sole of my left feet. although it hurts sometime, i still found the will to walk, stand n run too. i have nearly exhausted all means of self-medication to get rid of it, so it was getting a bit hopeless. haha. so i was almost resigned to let it stay in my feet.... but in recent weeks, there was a surge of pain in that damm corn and yes because of that, my mood has been abit sour and of course my leg was like fucking pain.. haha. so i finally decided to go see the polyclinic doctors...

and so...

anyway on thursday after sch, after acting busy for like one hour, i went to the cck polyclinic to see the corn on my feet. haha. the pain caused by the corn was nearly crippling, sometimes during lessons, it would get so pain i had to sit down on a chair in the middle of the class and continue talking...

so unglam...

so made the decision to go polyclinic to see.. since its supposed to b cheaper. so being polyclinic got to wait damm long. so while i was waiting did alot of marking, haha, marked my pupils hw until i fell asleep... can u imagine that? lolz

so finally went in see the doc.. n frankly i was quite embarrassed because i was wearing my black leather shoes so of course when i took off my shoe n sock.. it would b abit smelly loh. haha. but the doc face was straight.. professionalism.. anyway he was like 'that looks quite big... there are medicine, creams for such things but for such size.. i tink u go to specialist better.' i was like ok... since u said so.. so he gave me a referral letter to NUH to see some derma spec.

and yes even for the medicine (which were painkillers only) and the taking of the NUH appointment card took 100000 years to happen.. haha. but finally got everything and i nearly tripped myself when i saw the NUH appointment date. it was on the 27022009. omg lah!!!!!!!!!

270209 is like one mth away. the thought that i will be like so dead n crippled came to mind. so tried calling NUH to push the date forward but typical as it is. date can be changed but only to a later date, not eariler.. so abit stupid rite?

sheesh!... sigh.. so go home.. n bathe n then after drying up n walking back to my room, i realised my corn had actually bursted... if that is even the right word to use.. haha. but pus was coming out, so i started to squeeze out the pus and as i squeezed i realised with pleasant surprise that the corn was growing smaller n smaller n was not jutting out that much.. haha.. and i could walk normally to a certain degree. hehe

but the pain was still there.. then mummy asked abt the appointment n she was like totally shocked when i told her its 1mth later.. so she said go private doc and that she will pay the fees .. hehe .. so of course i said ok lo..

so actually i just went to see the private doc.. once again waited damm long.. gosh. once inside, he did some minor operation and was giving me a lesson on corn. lolz din know corns were actually caused by a bacteria. hmmm... interesting. i tink he was trying to make me feel less scared coz he was using a scrapel to cut into the corn... sheesh.. thank god i felt no pain...

so he gave me cream to get rid of blister which actually formed at the edge of the corn.. n he gave me another cream for the corn bacteria itself.. haha..

of course now i can walk normally wit little pain.. but the amt of money sent is quite abit.. sigh nearly 100 bucks.. but i guess for health theres no choice

i do hope i nvr will have a corn again... cursed damm thing!
