It's like you can never have a win-win situation; while you may win some, YOU ALSO LOSE A LOT.
I've become pretty convinced I'm more than a little ill. I mean, my bruises haven't been disappearing (for well over half a year), my hair has been falling out increasingly (KIDNEY PROBLEMS...?), there's this spot on my back that feels really weird and numb (a part that is said to be linked to the kidney), and I'm basically allergic to life. So my parents have been asking their friends who are knowledgeable in Chinese medicine about my health and here is what I have to go through:
- Ginger tea: As I've explained previously, I have a cold base (?) so ginger is supposed to warm me up. I lose because it makes me feel like I'm drinking spicy soap detergent, and I lose my apetite.
- Apple vinegar: It's supposed to clear up my nose since I've been having crazy allergies. Although I only mix a little bit of the vinegar with a lot of warm water and honey, my throat still burns when I drink it. (And the suggested water/vinegar ratio is 1:1).
- Eggplant: It's supposed to make my bruises go away. But I hate eggplant ):
It's a pretty short list when I actually put it into writing, but the pain I feel from putting these things into my mouth is endless. I only hope the list won't increase! I really hope these things work though (and God isn't really out there to get me by putting me through this pain), because I really don't like seeing the doctor. And I really don't like to discover that I have some horrible illness.
With that, I hope I can FIX MY LIFE and sleep early every night. Except for tonight.
