They Just Keep Popping Out


Turning and twisting myself to somehow manage to sleep comfortably in my bed had been deprived of me for almost two months. It's just so hard to be wincing when three wounds, the size of a one-peso coin, give you the feeling of a voodoo doll being pricked on with the slightest single move that agitates them. But the hell is over. I have gotten over the wounds, leaving me some scars on the right leg.

At my age, I wouldn't have to worry anymore whether "sebo de macho" or any enguent might still help them regenerate. I'd care less seeing those spots. I got big legs anyway but the irony of it is I love wearing shorts because I still haven't adapted my warm-blooded body to the extreme heat here in Manila. That speaks well for an Igorot who grew up in a city with cool weather ranging from 10-22 degrees celsius temperature, and the slowly diminishing flora of pine trees, huh.

While on cloud nine telling you guys I have gotten over what I thought was leg ulcer, I am saddened on the other hand that another thing just popped out on my upper lip. Am I cursed? They just keep popping out. First, it was a pimple, then a sty, then small wound, then another popped out, then another. I thought that was it. I was wrong. Now, another watery bulge on my lip just strips me off enjoying my meals and sucking up on my cigar. Sigh...

Did you have to get some vaccines before you moved there? Maybe there is something exotic you caught?

i am wondering if ther eis not some viral contamination in the house you are living in.. the inhabitants that have always been there caould be amuned having lived with it so long,, and you being a new comer could be suffering.. i don't know how you would find out.. but it is a possibility...

it happened to me once.. i moved in with a roommate an got three boils over the course of time.. i learned they carried a staff infection,, that they carried but did not suffer from!!! duh!!! i moved out asap an have never had another outbreak....

@paisley, happy to see your comments here, i had that idea once, i may just need to adjust with the environment i am in now, AJ's place is actually ok with me, it's clean and it's livable, i might give that viral thingy a thought too, not even sure if what i have is an allergy

@maiylah
salamat sa pagappreciate, hope to see you again^^

maybe it's your body's way of telling you to take it easy. we're not getting any younger, you know. he he. i used to have rashes, sores and scars all over too, until i started regular exercise abd taking anti-oxidants. you may want to try it.

@monaco

anti-oxidants? i think i should start drinking some green tea again, coffee also has anti-oxidants right, i just love coffee, indeed i am getting older, kaya siguro ganito ako lately,hehehe
