Lessons To Be Learned!..........

It is always true to the saying that you always learn from your mistakes. I recently found out that my newly installed expensive induction hob which had been giving me some problems (appliance suddenly stop heating during operation) even after it had been sent for repairs could be due to human errors instead of being faulty as I had thought to be.


After reading the user's manual which had just been given to me after many phonecalls, I begin to suspect that there is not enough ventilation to cool down the hob and so the overheating protection device shut off the operation. And I see that the requirements and specification for ventillation installation are not being followed.


So whose fault is it? Pointing fingers won't solved the problem and I hope this will serve as a lesson to all who are involved with this kind of matter and also to remind those who are still ignorant.




Lessons to be learned :


1) The interior designer must always ask for a manual for a built in specification including for the ventilation before any work is done on the kitchen design.




2) The salesperson must always make sure that a manual of the new hob they sell be provided to the customer or the interior designer to prevent further problems like this on both party.




3) Consumer must make sure that proper ventilation specifications are being done to the cabinets or tabletops before giving the green light for renovations.


Problems: Consumer like me this keeps complaining to the company when the hob keeps shutting down sometimes. The company keeps sending their technicians over. Now my interior designer has to do some changes to my kitchen cabinet.

A Visit to My Rheumy.........

Last month my rhuemy put me back on my old medication of 2 tablets of 2.5mg/tab Methotrexate which I had stopped for nearly a year due to my body not adapting to it anymore. I had been on prednisone for 6 months and the pain is not getting any better. I am glad this time my body did not show any bad side effects after a month back to Methotrexate.

A visit to my rheumy few days ago saw some good results. The inflamation has gone down greatly and a bonedensity scan shows that my bone is still strong enough to withstand any fall. I have been worried as prolong use of predisone which is a steroid will cause brittle bones. Hopefully the next few months will see much improvement in my well being with no side effects besides being less energetic.

The prednisone is taking its toil on my gastric. I am now weaning it off slowly for good.
