My operation

Went for the op yesterday. Quite an interesting experience although quite scary too..

The nurses were nice.. I guess Tat calmed me down a little. I waited like 3 hrs before I could do the op. They kept asking me the same questions. The funny thing was that the nurse asked me wat operation I was going for I was stuck.. Hey! The 3 medical terms had 5 syllables each! I mumbled the 1st two sylables of each word n she let me pass. Haha..

The operating theatre looked damn cool. There were floodlights shining on the bed. I was quite impressed I must admit. All those monitors n equipment tat looks like what u see on TV. Except this time I was the specimen. Didnt really like this part.. I knew I wont die, but still my heart fluttered. The anesthetist explained to me some stuff and I felt them inject something into my left hand. Oh yah, they made me sign something to promise its not their business if I die. I felt the mask n inhaled some funny smelling gas.

Strange.. After a few puffs I can still hear the commotion.. Strange.. Oh no! Where they gonna operate while I was still awake? I forced my eyes open to let them know I haven slept yet. Then I realized that I was in another room. Oh no.. Did they postpone the op cos I couldn't fall asleep? Shucks!! Then I started to feel pain. It was the most excruciating cramp I have felt in my life. It finally struck me tat the op was over n I had wounds. I was shivering n shaking. I told the nurse it hurt n I was cold. She told me to bear wif it cos pain medicine would make me more drousy. I was gritting my teeth n whining for I dunno how long.

But suprisingly the pain really started to go off... K came in n took my hand, I felt much better. Then I started to feel damn sleepy. I fell asleep as the nurse spoke. They forced me to eat something even though I couldn't. Drank a few sips of glucose n ate some sweets. I felt like shit n I swore this is the last op I am going thru.

It really is so impt to be healthy. I guess pple who are normally healthy must get really sick one in a while. I had gastic pain so i forced myself to eat a biscuit. It took me another 3 hrs to walk to out of the hospital, still feeling not that great but the nurse told me I would feel like tat whole day so go home n rest better.

We took a cab home n I finally threw up after alighting. Actually I felt much better after that. But still weak n tired. I called my mom to say I was well, then i forced myself to eat a biscuit n went to sleep again.

I dozed for 3 hrs n woke up for dinner. I managed to drink some soup n eaves chew some meat. I got nauseas again but felt better after eating some mangosteen. The sweet n sour fruity taste felt good. I was went to bed immediately so I won't vommit. Luckily tat helped.

Woke up at 12 for milo n slept again.

Oh yah, I'm not on pain killers anymore. Today feels much fresher. Although i still walk like an old lady.. I guess I am recovering really fast. Haha.. It feels good to be healthy.
