My very own black friday experience

Dear Blog,

Today is not the best day at all...in the morning, i suddenly decided to do my FBS and got poked twice (by the most experienced nurse in the hosp) before blood could be drawn out. Then...the results by reflo: 6.9 and with a HbA1c of 6.8....what are the chances that i have developed type II DM from the lineage i share (dad, grandmother)..another thing...it might be fated that i need to do OGTT next TCA at MOPD...........(*thinking hat on) perhaps i should abscond.........

Then, while i was trying to do my work, i developed a migraine attack caused a code blue. An ambulance had to come and take me to A&E from store integrasi. What drama. Everyone was looking. Celine and Jie Jie came all the way from MOPD then all the way to A&E to see me, See Chiat almost got scared to death, i vomited out all of my breakfast and got poked, iv dripped and iv tramalled at A&E before being discharged at noon.

Bright spots though i met Dr Goh in the morning. clarified with him that its ok to continue my t.atenolol 25mg OD even if i have new onset diabetes. And something that was carried forward from monday, i am officially diagnosed by our medical specialist as having a migraine...not space occupying lesion or brain tumor or anything. Good news.

Lunch with see chiat, phei qi, khai sin, xi you, hui yen at boston. met with Dr Joanne and the other prps and saw a bunch of doctors (Dr.Kong, Dr. Liew, Dr. Chee). Had some food after vomiting all breakfast and managed to keep it down. Bought gifts as signs of appreciation to pn najwa and pn syakinah...pretty things...

Then the farewell dinner. Bump into two big bosses at parking lot. Had good chat with Mak Wong (btw thanks for being one of my blog readers) Got a lucky draw gift...fantabulous. Had a little chat with Si Zheng about traditional chinese med for mom (who is suffering from pitting oedema and cold extremities). Took lots of pictures, gave an impromptu short speech, realised that fellow prp Lutfi is a great master of ceremony, and at the end of the day...went home with jie jie and mak wong (not a lonely drive home).

So dear blog, is my glass half empty or half full today?definitely half full. hope tomorrow i will do better...should i dye my hair purple for new year?
