Allegy Attack

Last night and the whole of today I looked like a case of Angeline Jolie or Anita Sarawak gone bad. My upper lip was swollen. It got huge! The doctor said it was an allergy effect. You see yesterday and the day before I ate lots of seafood, mainly prawns. According to the doctor most prawns are now reared and not caught from the ocean. So they can cause allergies. I had dinner of fried rice and prawn sambal at around 6:30pm last night. I ate about 7 prawns and the previous night I had about 10 prawns in the noodle soup my dad cooked. Then, at around 9pm last night, while I was changin Maisarah, my upper lips felt funny. I asked my mom and she said half of the upper lips was swollen. I out some oitment and thought that maybe somthing must have bitten my lips. That night when I slept my upper lips was still half swollen. This moring, I woke up and saw the the whole upper lips was now swollen. This was when my sister said that I looked like 'Angelina Jolie gone bad'.

Anyway, at 10 am I went to the doctor (I wore huge sunglasses to hide my face just in case I met anyone I knew which luckily I didn't). He gave me 3 types of medication - 2 types of pills to be taken one in the morning and another at night, another like a salve to be put on my lips. So the moment I got home I ate the morning medication and applied the salve on my swollen lips. Then, I told my mum that our plan to go to One U*tama was still on. I was not going to let swollen lips leave me being bored at home. This time I went out sans the hugh sunglasses cause I didn't want to bother putting on my contact lenses. Luckily I didn't meet anyone I knew. But just in case you saw some one who looked like she had a bodged collagen filled lips..that was me!

P/S - As of 11 pm tonight, my lips are back to normal.
