I’ve always had sensitive nose and I as I grow older, the situation seems to get from bad to worse. Sadly, it hits me hard especially when I come into contact with my dog. For a few months, I’ve got to put on a mask whenever I come into contact with my dog. If I don’t, I will start to get itchy nose, starts to sneeze non stop, then running nose, block nose and teary eyes. This happened even when I last visited the zoo.
Last night, the situation got so bad that I had difficulty in breathing. I’ve no choice but to go to CGH A&E for a quick follow up. I was brought to the Flu Triage, which I thought was pretty scary.
As the name is, it is meant for flu patients until 12 midnight daily and was setup during the H1N1 period. It has its own registration counters, pharmacy and consultation rooms. With no one around, except me waiting for the doctor, the aircon on, the enclosed environment made me feel uncomfortable.
The doctor find my condition alittle hard to explain. But to solve the current problem, he gave me 2 jabs to cure my running and block nose. Then, I’m given a referral letter to the National Skin Centre to go through some form of therapy to desensitize my nose, according to the doctor, it helps.
I’m not too sure how much I’m going to benefit from it, but I’m going to give it a try.
