Yesterday I was put on a day of fasting...
Nope, I wasn't on diet or hunger strike, but....

for a scoping session for my gastro at 1430hrs at TTSH, so poor me haf to bear with the hunger till everything is over!!! -__-''' (now I know how the Malays feel while they are fasting.....)
Procedure:
At 1400hrs I reported to the Admission Counter, did the normal registration and checking. Then a nurse came to bring me in for more tests...took my pressure etc...was asked to wait by the side for my bed...before I could sit, another nurse called my name...hehe
I followed her to the bed, and was wheeled into the theatre...the room was so cold and lying on the bed, I could only see faces of the nurses and doctors around me...and the big machine used to do this surgery.
The nurses took my pressure again, and sprayed some antiseptic lotion into my throat, and was asked to gurgled it. Then the doctor inserted a 'one-finger-thickness' scope into my mouth, down the throat and into the tummy...
oohooh....the feeling is so horrible....the mmt the doctor twisted the scope a little I simply felt like puking!!!
During the procedure, my tears jux rolled out!! And I was held down by the nurses in case I retaliated...haha...
The whole process took about 5mins and the doc was constantly informing me on how much longer I needed to hold on...
After that mmt, I was weak and dizzy....felt like a jelly...The nurse gaf me some refreshments, though I was so hungry couldn't take much due to the pain and the dizziness... was under observation for an hour before I was discharged....waited till about 5pm plus before I left for home...
Endure the hunger till about 6pm before I finally got my hands on food...yummy!!!
This morning, I recvd a call from the hospital informing me that the doc did some test on my tummy tissue (got some out during the surgery) and found some harmless bacteria in me, so they wan me to get some medication...was so shocked to hear that wor....hianx...
K lah hope all will be fine.....
