Are You Drinking The Right Tea....?

Here are some tips on drinking the right tea, I got this from a friend Esther whom I recently met at my RASG gathering...........

1. People who use their 'brain' to work or students who study hard day and night.

--- Should drink more Chrysanthemum Tea.

2. People who need a lot of body energy to work or those people who exercise a lot everyday.

--- Should drink Wu Loong Tea.

3. People who travel on a bike or work in dirty and polluted places.

--- Should drink Green Tea.

4. For people who like to sit down all day long and not do anything,even exercising

--- Must drink Green Tea and Flower Tea.

5. People who smoke and drink a lot of alcoholic drinks.

--- Should drink more Green Tea.

6. Carnivore (i.e. people who must eat meat at least once a day, or feel sickly)

--- Try to drink some Wu Loong Tea.

7. People who go to the washroom too often or not often enough.

--- Should drink more Honey Tea

8. People with high cholesterol and high blood pressure.

--- Wu Loong Tea, Green Tea.

9. Those who work with computers everyday.

--- Need to drink a Lot of Tea (any tea will do).

Whenever you are working with the computer, you should make some tea,drink it when you are free.

Drinking Tea is healthy, it can protect and prevent the harmful Ultraviolet light from harming us (when using computer).

Furthermore, it can also relief us when we are tired and help make our body feel fresh again.

4 Jabs In A Day.............!!!!

As i had mention earlier .....my left elbow joints was swollen and painful.....coz i had stopped my rheumatoid medication for about 3 months......it did not get well but instead it gets so stiff and painful til i totally cannot use my left hand...so off i went on a long journey to KL ....to see my rheumatologist....Dr.Chow Sook Kuan in Sunway Medical Centre....on Monday...the minute she saw my elbow.....she said i needed an injection of steroids ......to relief my swelling and pain.....i got 2 jabs right into the joints....after the jabs....i was told to resume taking my medication and this time to avoid the side effects of nausea caused by the medication in the form of pills......i had the option of consuming it in the form of injections.....that has a lighter or no side effect.......so i had another lesson from a nurse on how to inject myself with the medication....luckily it is only once a week jab......after this 3rd jab.....i had to go to get my blood test......so another syringe was push into my right arm to slowly pull out a syringe full of my precious blood.........but the young good looking lab assistance was very gentle and careful...so there was no pain at all......what a relief......after all these jabs.....i was back to my normal self again......and all my days of sufferings with a painful elbow was gone.....thanks to my doctor.

Oouch....a swollen elbow.......!

After two long years of the right medication.....my joint pains and swelling caused by rheumatoid arthritis has subsided....and on the advice of my rhematologist...i had stop my medication since November last year.....and less than four weeks ago....i had my normal blood test and check up....the results were good...but two weeks ago ...i started having pain and swelling in some of my joints.....and yesterday my left elbow was so stiff and swollen that i could not even bend it or straighten it to tie up my hair.....seems i have to make another long journey to KL Sunway Medical Centre to see my doctor......and i dreaded to go coz..taking the medication again ....will bring back the nausea which i hated most...will wait a few more days.....

For the Love of Music......

Despite my disabilty I could not keep myself from playing the piano. See my deformed fingers in my previous post? So I went to see an occupational therapist today to fix me a splint to align my fingers.. She said this is her first time fixing such a splint(I mean on fingers) .Not too bad.Tah..da...Do..re..mi.... I can play my piano properly again!!(Have not been playing for the past ten years!!)I was a music teacher before my arthritis attack. Now my life is more meaningful. Always be positive and do what you can despite your disability....
