update after the clinic trip: it cost a lot (ripp my wallet), but at least i got answers. the doctor said if i want to get this thing gone for good, it has to be surgically removed by a specialist. luckily, it’s nothing serious, so no need to panic. she used all these scientific terms i can’t even pronounce, but the gist is: keep an eye on it, and if it gets bigger, surgery it is.

for now, we bought the stuff she advised me to use daily. so, i guess i’ll just be living with this thing smack in the center of my collarbone like i’m iron man or something. add that to the huge birthmark i already have on the center of my chest, and i feel like a walking art project.

oh, and we stocked up on a ton of vitamins. guess it’s time to actually take care of myself for once. fingers crossed this doesn’t get worse, because the last thing i need is surgery adding to my stress pile. anyway, time to rest, study, and pretend i have my life together.
