my 3rd operation

this entry is a special one bcos im using on my right hand to type. haha.

i woke up at 0430 hrs on friday morning changing up and preparing for my operation. reached at Gleneagles Hopsital arnd 6am, after administrative details were sorted out, i was admitted. there was constant anxiety attack where my mind just ran wild scaring the shit out of myself. tried to catch up with my sleep with the remaining time left but it was obviously of not much use. the nurse came at 0720 to take me to the operating theatre. every different nurse that came to check my file kept asking me the same questions. "boy whats ur name, ic no., is this ur father's signature, his ic no. and which part of ur body is being operated." by the time the forth nurse asked me i basically answered her everything before she finished asking me. haha.

when i got into the operating room, it somehows brought back my memory of the past 2 ops i have been before. everything looked the same. just like to typical hollywood movie. all the sides of the room are painted white. huge lights shining at you. 2 clocks on ur right. and the surgeons and nurses are in a rush. it was like ur in a middle of a CBD area. people kept walking in and out, carrying things and asking each other questions like.. "where is the herbert screw for the op ltr.. i cant find it.." so u can know wat my reaction was. after lying down on the operating bed for 15 mins, i was greeted by the anesthetic doctor. after looking through my file she joking told me.. "so u know the SOP (standard operating procedure) already ah looking at ur operation records." since my left wrist was gg to be cut, they tapped my right hand vein before inserting the injection needle. soon enough, i was on anesthesia. you can feel the cold white liquid moving down ur right hand vein n at the same time breathing in pure oxygen. i tried to fight it but i failed. hah.

my worst nightmare began wen i woke up from anesthesia arnd 1030. from my past operations i know my body will react violently to the side effects of anesthesia. when i woke up the first thing i did was vomit. felt drousy, tired and sick the whole day. my stomach kept contracting, thus casuing me to vomit more then 10 times throughout the day. the last time i vomitted was 10pm. ahh. the nurses and doc helped me by injecting alot of medicine. my hands were like fun fair la. left being bandaged and was elevated. the right was used for injections. thank god, i was drowsy so i didnt really felt the needles. i didnt eat nor drink anything the whole day. wen i took a sip of water, i ended up vomitting more then consuming. plus it made my stomach worse. already my stomach has no food inside, the contractions were extremely painful. in the afternoon, weiyan chen n her fren, karina visited me in the hopsital. which made my atrocious day better! the flowers are nice! THANKS! (: the nurses ended my nightmare by putting me to sleep till the nxt day.

i woke up arnd 7 plus the next day, felt so fresh and happy that i can finally drink a cup of milo. doc came arnd 9 plus and i asked if i could go home. thankfully he said yes. i cant stand staying in the hospital for long bcos its too boring and i will be stoning on my bed most of the time.
