![]() I promise not to pluck mangoes again. I promise not to pluck mangoes again. I promise not to pluck mangoes again. I promise not to pluck mangoes again. I promise not to pluck mangoes again. Will someone buy them from the shopS the next time? *Bleah* Just joking! Long day visiting the the cure gods. From 7am to 3 pm.... running in and out of the house! Started quening at the polyclinic to get a subsidize letter so that my reference to national skin clinic won't be that expensive! Instead, they refered me to Changi hospital for a consultation in 2 weeks. How can I ever Tahan from now till then? And the response I got was, if I couldn't take the itch, I should go to A&E. Frustrating? Yesh! Very! Positively thinking and starting praying. Headed back the private doctor i went last evening. They called and managed to get an appointment at 1 plus this afternoon. Lucky? Yesh, thank you for listening. Headed home, slept, itched badly, talked to baby.. and off I went to see my hopefully able to cure doc! *Thanks to Godpa... mummy and I had a lift to and fro* Visit was quick and not hot! yesh! the itch is bad when the sun's killing! Dr. Tan was a very gentle doctor who simply has so many family photo frames in his room. Found the allergy and the cause! Avril and her itchy backsidE! Currently having: Mango dermatitis (caused by mango sap when u plucked the fruits) Kids... please think it looks good on top, it has its consequences. I've became a hot topic in pickleberry's science class! Well, the allergy comes after 12 hours, sort of like a delayed allergy. other symptoms: eyelid, and skin peeling... which i actually was able to understand the infection of my eyelid and the skin peeling sessions I had with my fingers. The Cure: Cetirizine, some crystal liquid, cream, and prednisolone. Something interesting: Prednisolone.... contains corticosteroid. Corticosteroids are hormones produced naturally by the adrenal glands which have many important functions, including control of inflammatory responses. Prednisolone is a synthetic corticosteroid that is used to decrease inflammation. Corticosteroids are often simply called steroids, but it should be noted that they are very different from another group of steroids, called anabolic steroids, which have gained notoriety because of their abuse by some athletes and body builders.Prednisolone works by acting within cells to prevent the release of certain chemicals that are important in the immune system. These chemicals are normally involved in producing immune and allergic responses, resulting in inflammation. By decreasing the release of these chemicals in a particular area, inflammation is reduced. This can help control a wide number of disease states, characterised by excessive inflammation. They include severe allergic reactions, inflammation of the lungs in asthma and inflammation of the joints in arthritis. In high doses, prednisolone also decreases the numbers of white blood cells circulating in the blood. This, along with the decrease in inflammatory chemicals, can prevent the rejection of organ transplants, as it prevents the body from attacking foreign tissue. It is useful for the treatment of certain types of leukaemia, where there is an abnormally large production of certain white blood cells. It is also used to treat some diseases which are caused by the immune system attacking itself (auto immune diseases).Prednisolone can also be given to people whose adrenal glands are not producing enough natural corticosteroids (adrenal insufficiency).Prednisolone can be given orally or as an injection for all these purposes. It is also given by injection directly into a joint to relieve inflammation and pain and increase mobility of the affected joint, in conditions such as arthritis and tennis elbow.Prednisolone is used in much higher doses than the levels of corticosteroids produced naturally by the body, and as such, the usual actions of corticosteroids become exaggerated and may be observed as side effects of this medicine. Fell asleep? Well, i know most of you are worried about the effects and stuff. I trust my doctor and it's for 10 days.. We'll see how it goes. For the mean time, I can say StEroiDs dun make Lala a bad girl! Good night for now I've got a date with my truly. And I'm looking forward to it as much as he is ... Hope Lala will have a good sleep...
