When Karinna came back from US last Sunday, she was somehow quite swollen. Water retention everywhere, legs and hands more so.
So she went to see doctor on Monday, got some medication, took some blood test, and was told to go back for review on Wednesday.
Wednesday, which is yesterday, got another jab, but I don't know the result of the blood test.
Anyway, doctor prescribe another medicine, Furosemide, which is meant to help dispel water from the body. How interesting.

And mind you, this medicine cannot be bought just over the counter. The clinic didn't have it, neither does the polyclinic. Went to Guardian pharmacy with her yesterday night to get it.
Though it's expensive?
Nah, $0.38 per pill. Consumption is half a pill per day in the morning.
Why morning? Meant to let you pass water out. Surely don't want to keep going to the loo in the middle of the night do you? :P
She just told me she got headache, not sure if it's the side effect, or just her usual job-headache which she has all the time.
So poor thing. *sayang*
