The swelling appeared in a flash. Small swollen spots soon merge to become a big one.
90% swollen.
Everyone at the office dare not look at my eyes. I felt like I was only using one eye. My vision was very limited. Driving back I have to turn my head often to look at the road. Woman is said to have 180 degree vision. I think last Friday my vision was only half of that.
I went to see the doctor who gave me the medication that causes this reaction. I called her earlier and she said I can take 4 prednisolone that would almost equal 1 injection. But I went to see her nevertheless since the the reaction got worse. I took another 4 prednisolone at the clinic, together with a jab. Luckily I didn't collapse with that many pred cause under normal allergy situation, pred would make me very drowsy.
I was feeling quite OK when I reached home and decided to attend my first yoga class here. I registered myself last Wednesday and so gung ho to start my class I'm not going to let my swollen eyes come in the way. The class was not too big. The room was OK but the instructor gave instructions in Chinese. Duh! *slaps forehead*
I was the only Malay lady there but please use English too. Very sparingly she interspersed her instruction with inhale and exhale. 2-3 times she'll come near me to correct my posture with English but that's that. The whole session was in Chinese. Sigh! I was so excited to find a yoga place very near to my house at a very reasonable rate. It didn't even occur to me to ask what's their medium of instruction because everyone speaks English when I registered. I guess I have to finish this whole month yoga session (already paid) as if I'm watching Chinese or Korean drama without a subtitle. Very frustrating!
By the way, my eyes are better now. Still a little bit swollen like I've been crying too much. Should be OK by tomorrow I think.
OK I better finish my packing and go off for 4-5 hours driving :)
