My First Hospitalisation !!!
Oh man I really need to share this !!! I was admitted into Tan Tock Seng Hospital for the very first time on Tuesday morning at 935!
It all started with my greediness, having roast duck, char siew and roast pork rice with a few of my colleagues and their clients during lunch on Monday at around 1pm. Then I started to feel unwell at 4pm and died-ed in office. I took a little nap and felt super cold all of a sudden !!! The air-con temperature was adjusted to 26 degree celcius and I was still feeling damn cold -_- Then i ton all the way till 630pm and collapsed on my bed immediately upon reaching home.
Then at 430am, I woke up in cold sweat (Tues morning) and started having the runs. As I was about to get back to bed from the toilet, I saw black patches all over and felt super weak with my head spinning and burning. THE NEXT MOMENT WHEN I REGAIN CONSCIOUSNESS, I WAS SPRAWLED ON THE FLOOR LIKE THOSE MERMAIDS LYING ALONG THE BEACHES IN OUR OLD SCHOOL FAIRY TALES *ok la, just my wishful thinking of being a mermaid :p* After which I used every ounce of my energy to crawl to the shower before making a dash for my bed before I black out again.
At around 8am I woke up and sms-ed my colleagues that I was on MC and tried to bring myself to the toilet. And history almost repeated itself if not for Joseph!!! *Thank God!* I laid on the floor near the toilet with Joseph holding onto me on the other side and thought to myself, 'if I ever die, I really hope to go to heaven'. And with that, I started mumbling the Lord's prayer 10,000 times and kept telling myself only God can save me. *And you know what? I think it was probably cos of all that muttering in my semi-conscious state that made my brother thought that I was going berserk and needed to call for an ambulance. kekeke*
And so I was sent to Tan Tock Seng Hospital *actually I also don't know why they sent me to TTSH when I'm in fact staying right beside one -_-* Oh well, anyway, my blood pressure went down to 100/60 with heartbeat 200 and blood count 6.2!!! *damn it* Then somehow my blood pressure dropped further until the machine showed an ERROR signal and the paramedics were quite helpless for awhile. I was supposed to give my urine sample but I was like HELLO, SEMI-CONSCIOUS ???!!! And this stupid doctor was totally insensitive and annoying and insisted that I give him my urine sample despite my inability !!! *-_- I almost wanted to slap him*
Then I went around doing all the checks and was put on drip and I felt much better after 3 hours in the hospital. The doctor wanted me to stay in for a day, but given my strong reluctance and fast-recovery body, he finally told me I could be discharged at around 3pm! Haha. And my kind colleagues Wilson Tracy and Peiru came to visit me and sent me home !!! Hee... So much love !!! Woo...
But honestly, I really thank God that I'm alive and kicking now man. Kekeke :) The Lord's prayer helps! Haha. Please continue to pray for me man friends!!! :) :) :)
