back to being super
The supposed 30-minute visit to my doctor’s clinic led to an extreme abdominal pain, rushing to the ER and 3-day stint again at the hospital.
My tube was scheduled to be removed last Saturday. According to my doctor, his patients smile right after removal of the tube. But in my case, few minutes after removal, I was in so much pain that I could not breathe. In fact, the pain is still very fresh in my memory. Hubby and my doctor were alternately telling me to relax and not panic. My left arm was so tired (which alarmed me ‘coz this might mean my heart was in distress) so I tried so hard to do deep breaths but I didn’t notice I was doing it so fast. Anyway, the ER doctor arrived at the clinic with a syringe even telling me that it might hurt. Honestly, I was in so much pain (in the abdomen) that I no longer felt the syringe. But my abdomen didn’t relax so I was rushed to the ER.
Anyway, 3 days and 22 gran later (My card no longer covered. Since this is post-operation, it was considered as same illness. I’ve exceeded from my last confinement), I’m back to being super! ;)
