The result from my hunt for a medical check up promotion for this month!
Yeay!
After reading the forwarded email from my dear friend this morning, I realised that I have not had a medical check up for almost 2 years. The last time I did one, which I claimed in my tax returns, was for year of assessment 2009! Wow, how time flies!
I knew I was due for a check up but had deferred it for fear of incompetent nurses withdrawing blood sample from me! The memory of bruised arms caused by 4 times needle into both my arms lingers till now! Ouch! Yes, I should have taken the photograph of that big patch of blue-black! Hmmm, why didn't I ah??
During the same check up, dear cousin fainted! Ahahaha! She forgot to tell the nurses her phobia of seeing blood! One poor nurse had to run out to search for me because I was still circling around for parking space. Probably that was another reason why we did not go for the next check up.

Why the urgency to go for a check up now? Well, this morning's self check for cancer, I realised that one of the sympton was bleeding gums when brushing teeth. I have been having that problem for a while and I thought it was due to heatiness, lack of Vitamins or lack of rest! Today I learn that it could be leukemia in me.
Now, now, please do not be alarmed! Do not instill fear unnecessary. Best solution to clear such doubt is to go for a thorough medical check up and wait for the results. It may not be what I fear it is. It just may not be....
While I continue hunting for a good deal for a complete medical check up, you should also look into going for one if you have not already had. The above exhibition may be a good day's outing to learn about your body and have some tests taken for free.
After all, it is organised by our Ministry of Health. As citizens of this country, we had already paid our taxes which I believe funded this exhibition. Why not take advantage of it and let the government serve us with their "free" services?

Who knows, you may just find me there mingling with you, if I have not found a good package deal then!
See you there!!

LG,your tooth brush may be the cause of the bleeding gum. Don't la start imagining things. Fear can create havoc to your body.
I read your article on "Listen to your body" and i thought it should be "Body, listen to me, your boss".
Declare good things over your body and your body will listen to you.
Believe me, it will do wonder.

Of course, it is not leukemia, silly.. most probably a small dental problem like plaque.
Never let the imagination runs wild and in the end, unsubstantiate worry ruin your life, by causing unecessary anxieties. Consult your dentist, too. You lead a healthy lifestyle, anyhow, so things should go great guns for you.
Cheers, mei mei!!
Sifu n kor kor, don't worry about me. Thank you for your advices and kind words. Will get all the necessary check ups anyhow. After all, they should be done annually mah. Life's here to enjoy! I shall not miss it for some bleeding gums lah! Cheers!! :D
