Fatigue + Continuous work = sick
Went to see the doctor because of persistent coughing and running nose. Since western medicine does not seem to help me much in the past, I went directly to see a TCM Physician. The doctor took my pulse and looked at my tongue, she somehow concluded that I am overworked thus the fatigue caused my immune system to weaken, resulting in illness.
I hear already I also shock! Never in my 18years of life I was told by a doctor that I am overworked. Initially I thought it was because of the unpredictable weather these few days when it can be cold at one moment and hot at another moment. Never in my wildest dreams that I think I could have fallen ill because of fatigue. Guess the signs are not good anymore.
Sometimes I do wonder if I should take an MC but yet I worry about missing lessons and not being able to catch up with the rest even though I do have my reserves about that thought. However, taking an MC would only make me feel even more uneasy at home, especially when I have nothing much to do. At least when I am at work, I have something else to think about other than my illness.
Well, hope the upcoming long weekend would do me some good, with an extra help from my medicine.
