Am I a sadist or sucker for pain? A.U.D.

Been having annoying ulcers ( yes, plural form ) for like the past 3 weeks or more already???

One side recover the others came out, and they all clustered around my lower left inner lip *OUCH to the MAX!!!*

Sigh... so for the past few weeks I have been doing crazy things...

Such as ( for Week 1 and Week 2 of Annoying Ulcers Duration aka A.U.D. *OMG! I just created these words at random and when I read back what I wrote, its my own name! FML =x * ) :



Applying salt ( 1st week ) and rubbing the salt into the ulcers till they bleed ( 2nd week ).



Adding the chinese medication, watermelon powder, after handling with the salt.



Watermelon powder ( taste horrid, urgh... )



=.="" After seeing absolutely minimal results from salt and running out of the watermelon powder, I head down to the chinese medical shop near my place on Monday morning to buy the watermelon powder, just before I head to work... The shopkeeper took one look at me ( or rather, my ulcers ) and goes "Tsk... This looks bad... Come! I help you cure it!"

I gave Ray a horrified look and one more pitiful look that might put any poor puppy dripping in the rain look to shame. But Ray only replied gleefully "Heh heh... You are dead! This is gonna hurt like mad."

FML... So much for looking him for support =.=""

The shopkeeper came back with the yellow liquid medicine, usually used to apply on cuts/wounds but I KNOW IT CAN'T BE CONSUMED!!!

Looking fearfully at the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper only handed me wads of tissues and asked me to open my mouth and he poured the freaking, horrid tasting liquid onto my ulcers and asked me NOT to swallow it.

Imagine its bad enough to rub salt onto ulcers, but add that with another stinging and painful sensation... Definately chased all the drowsiness I always have in the morning.

As if that's not enough, he poured another dose once more like 4-5 minutes later... And the pain doesn't lessen either... F.Y.I. This happen at the 3rd week of the A.U.D.

After that I had to rinse before I was able to eat anything ( by then any hunger pangs were all gone, good for those on diets, except... I AM FREAKING NOT ON DIET!!! )

I was thinking lots of colorful language each time he poured the medication in.



The shopkeeper told me to take this medication, supposingly to be able to purge all "poison" out of my body.

Sigh... And its Wednesday today and still, despite following what the shopkeeper had said, the ulcers are still around bothering me.

Only difference? I gotten self torture myself to put the medication on myself and endure through the pain.

Sadist? Or sucker for pain? Stupid ulcers...
