my first car
my first car - datsun 120y, 18-year old "老爷车". then i was 18 years old and a proud owner. unfortunately, i crahsed it within the first year. it ran over the kerb while entering a slip road and "flew" over a small drain. fortunately, three of us came out of it unhurt. and i still managed to drive it to the workshop with the tail pipe brushing the tarmac.

tibia stress fracture
visited 2 orthopaedists (at ttsh and sgh), an x-ray, an mri, several sessions with physiotherapist and 3 sessions with chinese physician (acupuncturist). all these during the last 6 weeks and more than $500 spent, it was concluded that the injury at my right shin is most likely tibia stress fracture. this means completely no running for the next 3-6 months. how bad/suay can it get?
this diagnosis was not concluded by any of the orthopaedists but a senior physiotherapist at sgh. yesterday, she applied pressure along the shin bone (to locate the affected area), specifically on the painful stretch and then across it. for months, i didn't realise that there is pain across the shin bone (only along it). she referred me back to the orthopaedist for a costly procedure called bone scan and a visit to the orthotist to correct deficiency of biomechanics (i.e., low arch, etc...). a bone scan must be performed in order to confirm the presence of a truely traumatised bone tissue, which x-rays often fail to detect them. foot orthotics allow the muscles, tendons and bones of the feet and lower legs to function at their highest potential. all these will cost me another few hundred bucks.
maybe i should pick up aqua running since i am destined to be plagued with running related injuries.
