swollen lips update

dada's nomnoms

I cannot spell "broccoli" right.

Quick recap: Bit and sucked on a shrimp's head on 3/14/16 Monday, dinner. Lips tingled and itched so took half a Zyrtec right away. Lips felt tight for 2 days. On the 3rd day, 3/17/16 Thursday, woke up with noticeably swollen & white-crusted lips (mainly upper lip). It got a little better during the day. On 3/18/16 Friday (TODAY), woke up with the swollen white-crusty lips again (upper lip's center border line's barely visible); it looks worse than yesterday. Took Cetirizine 5mg (half of 10mg tab) in the afternoon.

So, am I allergic to shrimp now?

It's turning out to be shrimp week here. Had a large ebi tempura (no head) on 3/15/16 Tuesday for dinner and pancit with baby shrimp on 3/17/16 Thursday for dinner. The pancit noodles tasted like it was boiled with shrimp essence (dinikdik na shrimp heads and shells).

I'm getting ready for bed now. Slathered lips with petroleum jelly and took another 5mg of Cetirizine, just in case.

Gold ring size 6 for ref

Image
A “pawnable” 0.69g 18k Saudi yellow gold ring (photo sent by the Shopee seller). My ring size is 6... in case I forget. Another buyer left a review that when they took it to Cebuana, they received an appraised value of P1,800 or ~50% of the retail price. Gold 18k market value is ~P3,400 per gram as of today (Sept. 11,2024). But for serious assets = gold bars are preferred over jewelry.  Actual ring I received ✨ Pretty small hearts design and stamped Au750 / 6. The diamond cuts make it sparkle. It looks very nice when worn.

Panda Express Everyday Bowl Delivery via Food Panda Panda Express PH:  "Everyday Bowl" 1 Entrée + 1 Side Orange Chicken + Fried Rice =  ₱  239.00  + rider's tip - discount voucher  Panda Express' orange chicken is already full of salty, sweet flavor so this many pieces is good for two if the other person is not very hungry. Bought their "Everyday Bowl" just to try since I was craving fried rice. Usually, I get the "classic plate" with 2 entrees + 1 side of mixed veggies.

Golden Powerchair Charging/Chargers

Image
Always have a spare charger for your electric wheelchair just in case... like today. When we plugged in my powerchair, the light on the charger turned green when it should've turned red (for reference, green light = fully charged VS. red light = charging). The actual light has been dim and difficult to see for a while now. I started using this generic charger in January 2021 when the original charger stopped working. Anyway, we troubleshoot... Took the spare charger out, plugged it in and RED light! Yay *insert tears of joy* - oh there's an emoji pala  😂. The light is nice and bright. So if the light becomes dim, it is a sign that the charger needs to be replaced soon. Now that I think about it, I noticed that sign with the original charger too. Since the spare is now the primary, I will get a new spare charger (again).  the original charger the generic charger replacement
