Home Singapore Home

I’m making myself comfortable at home now with a nice hot cup of coffee by my side. There was no coffee at the hospital.. Just Milo and barley and I was going crazy without my caffeine fix. As I mentioned in my other blog, I seriously have no complaints over at the Kandang Kerbau Hospital in Singapore, where I had my keyhole surgery. I was a bit peeved in the beginning when I heard I couldn’t get the room I wanted but in the end all worked well.. the room was cheaper for sure so I save on my medical cost. Hurray for me!

The room was cleaned and each morning the ward staff would come and change the bedsheets and pillow cases but not before they spray some antiseptic spray or was it Ortho Home Defense Max BEDBUG Killer on the mattress cover to make sure there were no bed bugs? Whatever it is, my stay was very comfortable although it was a non-aircon room and there were six of us in one ward.

Anyway, since bed bugs are still very much a nuisance in some ares, you might want to watch the video below to see how we can eradicate them for good from our beds. There are also tips on how to see if your bed is indeed infected and get rid of them for good. So watch it and learn people.

Surgery Day

So the day is finally here.. Second surgery in my lifetime. Am hoping it won’t be as major as the first surgery but one never know what the doctors will find once they are inside you right..lol!

I’ve started my fasting since midnight. I was told at 6am I could have a light breakfast which consist of only a single piece of bread and tea with sugar. NO milk, the nurse told me. I’m supposed to check in at 11.30am at the Admission office on the 1st level of Kandang Kerbau Hospital. The nurse would show me my ward to get me settled. I can request to see the doctor before the surgery but there is no guarantee that would happen. A medical officer in charge that day will come by to see me and assess my health to make sure I am healthy enough to be operated on. My surgery would take place around 4.30pm.

Pray that all goes well for me ya..

Cheerio…

The Cleanse is On

Prior to my surgery tomorrow, I was prescribed some cleansing meds to clean my system. At 10am, I had to take two tablets of Bisacodyl which is normally prescribed for people with constipation problem. As I don’t have any such problem nothing eventful happen.

Then at 4pm, I’m to take a bottle of oral laxative saline. As you may have guessed what that implied.. I’m literally rushing to the toilet every minute. I’m on my 10th round right now and still counting.

I am actually supposed to take another dose at 8pm but I reckon I will give it a miss if I can’t stand it any more.

In the meantime, I am also packing for my admittance tomorrow. I am packing light for sure, so I won’t be packing any nintendo ds games for sure but I will have my phone with me and since that is loaded with loads of boldie episodes, I know I won’t be bored for sure!

Cheerio…
