telophase: (Sasuke - hat of darkness)

(no subject)

Well, the doctor thinks it's a fungal infection rather than an allergic reaction, despite the last diagnosis (from a different doctor) and the fact that the previous treatment worked to clear it up. So I've got some antifungal cream that sternly admonishes me DO NOT USE ORALLY* to put on my mouth 3 times a day and have been directed to phone the doctor in a week if it doesn't work. I also have, because I decided it was a good idea, a pack of straws with which to drink in case I decide I'm thirsty shortly after putting the fungicide on.

Maybe I'll get superpowers.





* A change from the usual admonishment for various creams and ointments I get prescribed, which invariably warn me not to put a diaper on the affected area until it has completely dried.

Do use it as directed, or the fungus might start o'erhanging you like a hat.

I AM FUNGUS LASS! ALL WHO SEE ME SHALL OBEY!

The doctor forbade me from eating acidic foods for a while, so all I want to eat right now is salt and vinegar potato chips and oranges.

I've sometimes wishes I had a fungus or something. Especially on my hands.
(I'm just weird.) It's probably because I had a fascination with fungi for about three years...

*Who* (or *what*) have you been kissing? XD

Swamp Thing, apparently. :D

Hm...Well, I hope that it works. Maybe there were spores floating in the area near the booth??

The Fungal Avenger! This could lead to hours of amusement as I try and make up a super hero costume based around fungus.

Have you considered a premature donation of your body to science?

I think you should probably assume the usual admonishment as well.

Because I don't believe it would be a good idea for you to put a diaper on your face while your antifungal cream is still wet.

Damn.
