The Future is Now

Running a business is really requires a lot of work, not the least of which is planning. Planning forces me to think ahead. (And causing my hair to grey) I am in the process of reviewing my business plan, that summarizes the proposed business venture, realign the company's goals, how to achieve those goals in the honest view my existing limited resources...

It will guide our operations and outline the strategy for turning ideas into reality. No one say it will be easy... but I will try.

Yesterday, early morning at 8am, I went to Mount Alvenia hospital for a MRI scan on the recommendation of my specialist doctor. I was the first patient there, expecting a traffic jam, i took off from home earlier in my trusty old Renault van. Years of backache and numbness in my leg since my days at national service, both the NUH specialist and military doctors says there is nothing wrong with me, my leg or my back... Especially to the NUH specialist, you really sucks.

When the medical report was out, was diagnosed with L5 Spondylolysis. The back pain is due to the resultant stress placed on the lumbar disc. This could also explain for the leg pain when I was running, walking or standing too long.

I was prescribed with anti-inflammatory agents, and asked to swim instead of my regular weight exercises. Finally, I am getting a downgrade recommendation for exemption of military duties. But the price does not come cheap, the MRI alone is $600. There goes my hard-earned money.
