The achilles tendon did get better, but not only did the rashes not heal, they developed into quite jialat eczema. Reddish skin with blisters and patches all over the place!
Had to go to the GP again last night. The bill was $92! But it was quite funny seeing the doctor fumbling with the syringe, trying to extract the serum from the biggest blister : ) Thankfully the anti-itch pills worked.
Wifey seems to enjoy pricking the blisters ...

Damn pain!
*Update 17 Sep 09*
Now that the foot is feeling better, guess what's next? Numbness in my left hand. Internet says it might have to do with nerves around the neck. Memory pillow, where are you??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It started on Saturday, feeling a bit strained. Got worse on Sunday and Sunday night really did it for me. Hobbled around the house, not to mention the occasional dull pull of the pain. Sleeping was a problem.
Went to the doctor on Monday to get a 2-day MC, and then it was straight off to the sinseh. One big black piece of koyok, and overly-tight bandage and skin rashes later, it is much better now, but still a little bit sore. Hope it recovers in a few days.

"Feeling better yet?"
Yes, immensely!
Thank you Lord, for making me feel useful, needed and having some self worth by packing my day with decisions that I have to make and people that know what I want and know what I'm talking about. Also thank you for putting people whom I can click with around me.
Most importantly, thank you Lord for bestowing upon me the wisdom and the clarity of thought with which I tap upon to solve these problems.
Amitabha.

How is it done?
Mahatma Gandhi once said:
“There is nothing that wastes the body like worry, and one who has any faith in God should be ashamed to worry about anything whatsoever”
Dear Gandhiji, I understand the immense wisdom of your words, but I fail miserably in its execution ...

Dear Lord, are you trying to tell me something?
Dear Lord, for the 2nd day in a row, You have put me in contact with like-minded people. Both told me personal stories, that, when put into perspective, demonstrated Your infinite wisdom and the karmic effects of life.
But dear Lord, are You trying to tell me more? Does this have to do with my current predicament? My ignorance is preventing me from seeing the linkage. Or is this the start of a fellowship of dharma brothers and sisters?
I know I have an issue with self-worth, and have always wondered what my mission in this life is. Are You helping me on these fronts? Is this my calling?
Urrrgggh, my ignorance ...!

Aiyoh
This morning I was happily munching on my soot-laden , badly-burnt-on-the-bottom bread when I remembered what the auntie said when I bought the bread from her:
这个不健康,吃多了对身体不好.
And then a thought entered my mind:
Cause of death: Cancer
Age at death: 76
Aiyoh, so morbid! But already better than my expected age of 72!
