2 Injections in 1 Day!!

So today 26th Feb is the day when I am supposed to get my second shot for Hep A + B shot...and I went..Since I was already in a clinic, I asked the doc about the lump on my lips..which has been there for more than a month already. He took a look at it and asked if I happened to accidentally bit it or knocked it..and I said no..Then, he said..oh, it's nothing much, I will give you some cream n you apply and see if it goes away. If it doesn't after two weeks, u come back...well, I was a little relief hearing that.

However, after paying it, my worry came back..cos firstly, the cream is only RM5..hmm...I know it's good that it's cheap..but when I asked the nurse if it's consumable, she said no..and I was wondering...it is going onto my lips and chances are I would likely to eat it somehow...hmmm....

So, as I was driving back, I decided to go to consult a specialist. Skin specialist makes good money!! judging by how many people who were waiting for their turn...I was lucky to get a slot in between the back to back appointments..

The doctor took a look at my lips and asked me a few questions...Then, she said, "It's a cyst!" and she went on explaining a little abt how a cyst could happened..and lastly, she said, "I will give u an injection on your lips and hopefully it goes away and doesn't come back. If it does, then we may have to go for a more complicated way to remove it which could mean surgery.." Arghhh....ok...another jab!! well, the jab was not painful, but it costs me another RM150!

Now I am just hoping the cyst can be healed...:( I have recently become more health conscious, trying to eat more fruits n vege and live healthier...and it is because for the passed half a year, I have heard so many stories of sudden deaths at a young age...:( and it's true, "Life is Short"...
