Rashes, rashes, rashes...

I have been down with rashes for the past few days. My upper body is filled with many many many small & itchy red spots.

To be honest, I can't bear to look at myself in the mirror without any shirt or t-shirt. And I can't help but scratch them sometimes.

I went to a private doctor 2 days ago. The doctor gave ne some cream to apply and some pills to take. However, both medication didn't help.

Today, I couldn't take it any more. I decided to go to a polyclinic and get a referral to see a skin specialist.

I was at the polyclinic and the doctor told me that I might only be able to see the skin specialist next year because of the long queue. I was shocked. Next year.. Gosh.

However, when the nurse helped me make my appointment, I was in for a plesant surprise. I was actually able to get an appointment next Thursday at CGH. I was so thankful for it!! :)

I have decided that I will not let my circumstances overcome me. But I will overcome my circumstances. I choose not to allow the itchy rashes on my body stop me from performing my daily routines. (Yah, but I will not be silly and do anything that will make me sweat as that would make my rashes worse)

On top of that, I'm really glad and thankful that I can see the skin specialist next Thursday, and not next year. Somebody once told me, "In life, pain is inevitable. But misery is a choice".

Are you living in misery now because of some unplesant circumstances? Choose to overcome them instead. Choose to see the positive out of the negative.

Be like an eagle and soar above every circumstance.
