Anaemic......



It is more than 2 weeks since i admitted to the hospital again...this time i need to have blood tranfuse which i dont like it. my doc say im anaemic as my haemoglobin only 8 where normal ppl will be around 12...by seeing another person bloods get into my system make me feel relieved as well scared to death.... Relived? for able to increase my haemoglobin which is low [i hope that this blood tranfuse able to increase it] Scared to death ? well who doesnt scare seeing a bag full of red blood....it scary as well i worry if this blood is clean.....even my sisters teased me that the vampire might be envy of me as im receiving a bag of blood...hahaha..


plus the needle that stick on my hand make me hard to move or do something....during this admission to the hospital i get to 'escape' what my friends call, where i need to get excuse from the ward in order to me to attend my semester exams...Luckly my dear doctors understood my condition but to the worst thay didnt remove the needle first before releasing me for the exam.....if only they remove the needle it will not to be poke again with the needle during the second blood tranfuse.... :(



During the second blood tranfuse, there is something bad happens as the needle get block and my nerve is swollen which make the blood unable to get in...so the nurse need to poke another needle..that time it was funny...one nurse attend my another hand which are swollen and rescue the blood from overspill and another nurse poke my hand wothout even ask me first but instead she tease me....but well the nurses are ok actual, they treat me well..it not only my nerve is swollen...i also got fever during the tranfusion...i think it is the side effect of the tranfusion.i was shivering and cause my mom to be worry....


Oh yea...during my duration in the hospital i get the opportunity to me another SLE patient which are rarely happens eversince i was admitted in the hospital...actually i didnt get the chance to talk to her but during the night she had asthma attack which i overheard the doctor saying she is SLE patient and she is quite young only 19 th.....well i know it not good to overheard people talking but i cnt stop hearing it as the doctor say it out loud and i can heard clearly how difficult this dear girl tryin to get some breath..i make me feel sad as i might be like her....but i am lucky that im not like her as every SLE patient will not have the same condition as this SLE quite individual things....i feel like want to cry as i am pity with her.....even my mom look worry as i think she might thinking that i might be like her conditon if i dont look after my diet or my heatlh....

Well apart from the blood transfusion, i also need to undergo the endoscopy - where the doc put a long tube into ur mouth in order to see inside ur body.... So what is endoscopy? well, with the procedure known as gastrointestinal endoscopy, a doctor is able to see the inside lining of your digestive tract. This examination is performed using an endoscope-a flexible fiberoptic tube with a tiny TV camera at the end. The camera is connected to either an eyepiece for direct viewing or a video screen that displays the images on a color TV. Actually it not bad as i think....i only feel discomfort when the tube is inside ur body, i mean really inside ur body, u can feel it...

The worst parts is when i need to wait for the doc to take tiny bit of my digestive system for sample..........i make me feel want to vomit....but Alhamdulilah the result is ok nothing serious happens...

well that all for this time....i will update this blog if i have some spare time as well im in good condition...cheers...
