Woowwww, What the heck is that!

Well, I am writing this from the Monash Hospital in Clayton (Victoria, Australia). I am in since yesterday with an infected Sebaceous cyst on the side of my face. I am in till tomorrow at least (Monday 23 March 2009) to have a CT scan of the Cyst and after that, they may choose to Lance/Drain or even remove it. Or possibly send me home.

I have had the infection for about a week and a half (this photo was taken last week and its a little worse now) and after two trips to the doctors I was on antibiotics that were having little effect. Panadol was doing the trick to keep the pain down but the infection wasn’t going away and the Cyst was still growing.

It came to a head on Saturday (21/3/09) when I work with a Migraine. Once I got over it I went into the emergency room and after a short wait was seen by the doctor. After going through the history a few times, they took a jaw x-ray and then decided to admit me to hospital to give me Intravenous antibiotics and wanted me to have a CT scan.

So I am in here for at least Sunday night and some of Monday. I am taking the chance to rest. I want to thank everyone the is helping me and my family out. Especial thanks to the staff of the hospital who have been great. Will let you know how I get on!
