So, it has been verified. Now, I am finally diagnosed with the condition of migraine. But this time round, it came together with my existing condition of tension headache. It is terrible. A few days ago, my vision was blurred. I had problems breathing when I slept at night. And when the pain comes, it hits so hard as if my head had been hammered not just once but many times over and over again till my skull seemed to be on the verge of cracking. I paid a visit to the doctor just now and had my blood pressure taken. My my!! Doc said it was on the high side and asked me to be careful. He asked if I had been stressed out lately. I replied YES!!! Explained the whole story about marking my students' scripts and things like that.....
Hmmmm.....occupational hazard. I cannot stop worrying about my students. I think I will not be able to draw the line in the near future. Perhaps a few more years in the system and I might be able to do it.
Doc wanted me to rest at home and wanted to give me MC. For some reason, the moment I heard the word 'MC', and saw that he had written it down on my records, I immediately shook my head and refused. I told him that I need to be in school. NO MC!. Guess my sudden reaction really shocked him. He had this funny look on his face despite having a mask on. Heehee...Jo is over-reacting again!!!!

My dear, work ain't everything. Your health is more important. Though ours is a special job, you need to bear in mind that there is only so much you can do.
Take good care of yourself and we shall meet up during the June Holidays. :)
