Went to Westgate to donate 450ml of blood


Went to Big Box to look for some clothes and shoes but left with a great disappointment due to the limited variety

With ah boy now at KKH Clinic K - allergy clinic.


Doc recommends to start immunotherapy since the oral medications are not effective since we started on it.

The immunotherapy now comes in small pill that dissolves with 5 seconds under the tongue, no more liquid form to be stored in the fridge.

Now waiting for the skin prick test n lung test , then to see the doctor again.

ah boy, get well soon.

sudden allergy outbreak or ongoing issue?

I like the blood bank at Westgate. The ambience is nice. I don’t donate blood regularly though; maybe once or twice a year
The blood we see when we have a cut is bright red. The blood drawn from the vein is deeper in colour; liver colour
Anyway, I take it as a good deed done today

:yikes: get well soon! We see Dr Ann Goh for allergies; Dr Mark Koh (upon Dr Gohs referral) for dermatological concerns. KKH takes care of young patients well - double thumbs up.

Finally set on going on board the immunotherapy program. Would be easier to manage with pills.
Starting in Nov after he sits for the O levels HCL exam. Won't want him to be distracted with whatever possible side effects during exam preparation period.

Possible side effects includes stomach cramps, increased running nose/ blocked nose, coughing during the initial period.

Ongoing issue with his nose which cannot be \"not blocked\".
Luckily we did not have too many hazy days so far this year.

Yes Starlight, you did a very noble deed today.
Is the needle used very fine? I have hypothyroidism...each time I need to get blood drawn for test, the lab technician can't find the vein. As I am on long term medication, I don't think my blood will be accepted. Otherwise it is good to donate blood.
