Embarrasingly painful experience

Aku tak pernah warded in hospital. Let alone being operate. Melawat orang sakit and berkampung di hospital, done that before.

Tapi on the 4th October, all that has change. Aku kena operate hari Selasa & warded sampai hari Jumaat di SDMC. Lama jugak rasanya. Well basically, on the day aku kena operate tu, aku demam. So it take my body 1 day to recover from fever & by friday the doc let me discharge.

Knape aku kena operate? Thats why I put the title of this post mcm ni. Coz i got an abscess that need to be operate to take it out. And the embarrasing part is that its located at my butt. In another word - bisul kat punggung. It may sound funny to a few, tp for those yg pernah experience it... It hurt. Hurt like hell. You cant sit properly, you cant lie down properly & bile dia dah masak, nak jalan pon sakit gile.




Dan aku jugak experience for the first time kena usung on the wheelchair. Trust me , I dont like the feeling. But due to pain, kena naik whilcha gak la. Patutnye aku warded on Monday, tapi due to no bed or room available, diorg suruh aku balik & come on tuesday morning to be warded. Tapi aku still x dpt bilik that tuesday morning until my op completed, baru aku dpt bilik.

Actually aku patut dpt 1 bed per room, tp due to xde kekosongan. Aku dpt bilik for two. Jadilah... Daripada xde bilik langsung.





Aku dok kat wad 586 north tower with my bed close to the window. Nice view by the way.

Aku kena full bius time op. Okla, drpd aku sedar time op or jd cam crite awake yg Hayden Christensen sedar masa kena op and rasa sakitnya...pergh. Nasib baik aku xde experience tu. Aku schedule for op at 1:30 and by that time aku dah kena bwk dlm op theater (OT - not Old Trafford) so call waiting room. Tunggu smpai pkl 1:40 then all the doc smpai, terus masuk OT. 1st doc inject aku dgn bius and x sampai 10 saat, aku pengsan. Aku sedar pkl 2:50 and masa tu aku dah kat OT waiting room blk.

The 1st day dressing was the worst experience. Actually sakitnya sikit je. Tapi perasaan takut bila la nak rasa sakit tu yg buat 1st dressing tu mcm menakutkan. Staff nurse yg buat dressing tu ckp 'lubang' bisul aku kecik je. About 1.5cm deep & 1cm in diameter. Then dia fobiakan aku by saying that normally, lubang bisul tu is about 4cm deep. Wargh!!. Aku x dpt bygkan la sakitnya kena dressing kalo dlm mcm tu.




Ni gmbr tgn kiri aku yg diorg dok drip antibiotik masuk vein aku. Ada 2 jenis antibiotik aku kena drip every 3 hour. Aku cuma dpt bezakan 2 jenis tu by botol dia. 1 botol plastik & 1 botol kaca. Yg botol kaca tu azab sket nak abiskan sbb selalunya nurse kena dtg check sbb x turun. Bile x turun tu, yg vein aku sakit gile. Nasib baik x bengkak. If bengkak, kena tukar tangan plak. Cucuk tempat lain.




The nurses are helpful. Semua baik je. Aku rasa on the 1st & 2nd day je aku cam ngengada sket. Kejap2 panggil nurse nak tu, nak ni. Smpai nak ikatkan gaun pas mandi & rendam air garam pon aku suruh diorg. Hehe. Aku gak ada physio yg dtg everyday suruh aku excercise dpn dia. Ada 1 day tu smpai 2x kali dia dtg. Aku syak dia suka aku, tp biasalah... Aku ni dok prasan mmg #1. Hehe. Sama gak mcm aku perasan yg ada nurse suka aku. Tp aku still ingat anak bini aku. Hehe.

Erma been helpful to me. Kesian kat dia sebab on Monday before the op, dialah yg drive aku g sana, sini. Then kena tunggu aku masa kat OT lounge sampai la aku dah pas op. Ikut aku masa nak warded. Then everyday dtg tgk aku. My highlight of each day was to see her & Ayra dtg visit aku. I wish they can stay with me @ the ward but then again it will not be cozy for them. So aku suruh diorg blk tidor kt rumah. To those yg dtg melawat, I will remember your visit. And to those who wish for my speedy recovery, I would like to thank you guys.

Lepas je discharge tu, aku kena dtg everyday utk buat dressing. Smpai la last Saturday when the doc, Dr. Mohd Hanis said ble buat dressing sendiri kat rumah coz lubang tu dah nak tutup. Alhamdulillah. And I will have another follow up aptmnt with him next Saturday.

The reason aku dpt abscess tu x clear. It can be that aku dok tmpt x bersih. Or anything. Tp bkn sebab aku dok kat atas bantal, ok? hehe. Suka aku nak maklumkan yang aku bersyukur sebab aku ada insurans. Sbb insuranslah aku mampu buat op & dok kat SDMC. Actually company aku keja pon cover. Tp leceh sket sbb kena setelkan paperwork dulu, then baru ble proceed dgn op and etc. Kalo xde insurans, mana mampu aku nak tanggung kos dressing hari2, doc consultation semua tu. Eventho kena byr gak about 10% of the total cost, but jika nak bandingkan kena bayar semua, it worth it la.





Lupa another thing. The food was nice & sedap. To be frank, aku x pantang. Kalo MIL aku tau, bisul la telinga aku jawabnya. Hehe. The cafe @ ground floor pon sedap gak makanannya. Harga dia pon sedap gak. Bayangkan sampai Erma sanggup nak breakfast kat cafe tu semata2 nak mkn omellatte dia. Tp mmg nmpk mcm sedap jer. Lol.

Its an experience yg aku susah nak lupakan. Tapi aku rather kena op mcm ni rather than sebab sakit jantung or etc. Those yg chances of survival minimal. At least aku still ada chance utk redeem all my mistake and start a new life. Cant wait to see the nurses.. Eh.. The doctor utk hopefully my final check up and can be declare fully recover. InsyaAllah.
