Tolerance for Pain

I think I like to torture myself too much sometimes. I wore a new pair of heels to work yesterday and it caused me a blister that broke even before I reached home. In my defiance to give in to the pain, I wore the same pair of heels to work again today. My mindset was simple - I had to break into the shoes!

Obviously, I was wrong. The shoes nearly broke my legs. I was limping for more than half the day and I'm currently suffering from an even worse blister than yesterday plus another 2 new blisters. Sometimes I think I'm crazy and definitely too stubborn for my own good.

Went to see a doctor early this morning. Within an hour of waking up, I suffered from 4 bouts of sharp pain in my right eardrum. It was as if someone took a really long needle and pierced right into the middle of your eardrum, creating a sharp bone-chilling kind of pain. I was scared and worried for myself (seldom do I feel that way). Didn't dare to take the risk so it was a trip to the clinic.

The doctor was kinda funny. She looked into my ear and said, "oohh.. you have a very angry ear!". Apparently it was all red and slightly swollen in the ear. I dunno how I got myself a ear infection but it's definitely no fun at all. Was put on antibiotics (coz I'm taking a plane next week and she said the air pressure will worsen the infection) and given some ear drops.

In yesterday's post I was jus saying I need to cook up some excuse to prevent the guys from making me drink. There, I've a very valid reason now - I'm on medication. Haha. I'm not sure if I should be happy for not having to drink too much or should I be sad coz I sort of cursed myself. Whatever the case, I jus hope to get well soon now. :)

My tolerance for pain has certainly gone up by another level. I actually limped home from the MRT station despite wanting to take a cab home. The pain that I feel from time to time in my ear to my bones. I amaze myself sometimes.
