Allergic Reaction

Allergic. Have you got foods or environments that can cause discomfort to your total wellness in a minute? Well, that's called allergic reaction. I wasn't born that way, mind you. I started showing it in my early 20's.

The first time I noticed it was after a picnic near a river. I actually got bitten or maybe sucked by a slug. After having full stomach, the slug actually shrugged itself from me. Sorry if I explain it the wrong way. I only saw it after it got full stomach. The site never stop bleeding and my body became so itchy. My limbs got warm and itchy. Even my head was so itchy that I can't bear it. Later, my body swollen including my lips and nose. Maybe, I look like Shrek but it wasn't filmed yet at that time.

I was admitted in ward for three days following a painful drip. I said to myself that I wouldn't go near the river again but that was only a year. I later began experiencing a few series of allergic reactions. Sometimes I was given an injection because I began to look like a balloon. Then one historical day, I was given a very effective treatment. A doctor gave me an a drip and hey, it's been 6 years since my last allergic reaction. So, it was just the right time and treatment to solve the misery ( not really as bad as that, but a day of sickness is too hard to compare to a week of healthiness , believe me ). Thanks to that doctor I can now go to any dusty supermarket and savour seafoods. That's why I respect doctors. They study hard, they earn a lot but back to basics, it's really about responsibility. The wages is a mean to earn a living to satisfy self and family needs.
