the entry of miniscule festivities

of late, i've been running down memory lane watching re-runs of mean girls with various friends so many a times that i could almost recite the entire transcript it's crazy! i know, right? it's like i've got a fifth sense or espn or something. someone spell me x-y-l-o-c-a-r-p.

anyhows, i must be really down in luck. i made another trip to the hospital yet again. apparently, a cyst-like lump on my wrist, which has been there for almost a year, is mushrooming to the size of a small quail egg. i've decided, for the benefit of those who indulge in quail congee delights, to not have any pictures taken. so here's how it went down:

i traipsed back to the same clinic, but consulted another doctor, who was a specialist in hand and wrist-related malaise. he gingerly poked at my lump (risque much), shone a torch at it (for whatever reason), moved the lump around to assess its mobility, and concluded it to either a case of ganglion or fibroma, both of which required a two-cm saucerization across the locale to extract said lumpy. in laymen's term, it just meant i need to fork out another $3,500 for the operation. fantastic.

on a brighter note, the last day of october, i.e. halloween, brought about some long-awaited fun. the gin gang decided to dress up in acjc outfits. i tried squeezing into my old school pants, and found it to be literally breathtakingly tight. in the end, i went as a flight attendant. hark back to the days, deja vu. meanwhile... photos!

there is no real need to remove the lump unless it causes pain or inconvenience. no guarantee by doctor that it will not come back too. food for thought for your lumpy issue :)

You went ICA today? I think I saw you. I was sitting behind you.

(763092) i know right? i totally don't fit the bill of a flight attendant anymore, or as in the case of my friend who pronounces it haplessly as "fright attendant".

(starlit) yeah, it's the new series. mine's outdated already, hah.

(jc) that's what the doctor said, but he did mention that the size of the lump will grow over time, .. oh well, have to wait and see how it goes.

iruffcookiedough said...

(no name) no worries at all, i am sure you will have great time everywhere you go.

(anon) yeah, i was there today to help my friend with his ic and getting mine as well. =)
