Day 10 - warded

today marks the 10 day i am being warded at the hospital. i don't know if this has got anything to do with my incident back in maldives in january but what i know i have vulnerable lungs at this point of time. although i tried so hard not to get myself sick, somehow the environment is not helping people like me. or was it work stress? or too much thinking of what is next life has for me? i know for sure it is somewhat about AH. hmmm too much on that. i should deviate my focus on other things - things that we/i are more certain and i can control of. 

i should just get back on track on getting really healthy. really try to do something else to distract my frustration on not having be able to do the usual exercise that uses my strength so much. so, right now, definitely no weight training, no full zumba teaching, no swimming hmm what is left? yoga?? i really need to get the time with maria.  

as i am writing this now, i just had my minor procedure to jab steroid on my right ribs for the pain that i've got due to my long due cough. it hurts when i breathe in or when i cough. i had my jabs on my left ribs few days ago and i felt a bit better and relief. next question how i landed in the hospital this time?

chronology events:

💪 i had flu for more than 2 weeks, so somewhere in early april after i came back from Langkawi. could be due to the hot weather over there. 

💪 i made it to shadow my zumba instructor friend during KLZM2019 on 20 April 2019 - Malaysia Book of Record Marathon Zumba for 12 hours - yey #alhamdulillah, i felt good about myself and AH has always been there to ensure i am ok throughout the event. basically my own private medical team. hahhaha love you sayang 💋

💪 after KLZM event, i started to get bad cough, and phlegm. went to GP and get the medicines that i needed, but still there. until 26 April 2019 when my detail lungs test is due with Dr HL at PCMC. it was ok, not so nice coz i was having bad cough. Dr HL prescribed inhaler and etc for me. felt good for the first few days but nothing much changes after that although i still took the meds religiously. 

💪 then i started joining my zumba classes and have practices since i took a job end of April 2019 (27 Apr 2019) for a school event. i have to start somewhere coz i need my stamina back. did i have short of breath during the practise, yes but i can manage. i stopped and rested in between. my throat and lips were dry. i tell you, during that time, my breathing was at the tip and i was tercungap2 but show must go on... many thanks to ZZ and ZN who covered me up during the 30 minutes session. they both are my left and right wing/strength who have always been supportive towards me. 

💪 after 2 weeks of cough, it went bad to worst, i had to go to ER sent by AH since he was around over the weekend, and i took nabulizer to ease my chest. and got referred to Dr HL back on Monday. 

💪 sunday, i decided to do some light swimming exercise at my house pool. hehehe 😜with AH. mengah tercungap dah macam ikan keluar air. i was really panting swimming from one end to another. but i am happy i am ok for the fear. i fought my fear of water after jan incident. that was my intention. 

💪 monday, i went to the office and coughed so bad that my face turned red. waited for the time for my next appointment with Dr HL and he got me admitted for full check up.. and so here i am. 

joey who accompanied me when he can 

this is like a few times a day to help the phlegm and my breathing

got this on google and understand why DR HL did all the steps.

so basically while i am here, we have done XRays, CTScans, blood tests, culture samples, urine samples, physio chest and all are okay just that i have viral, sinus, bronchitis and now due to the long bad cough, my ribs are a bit swollen and it hurts. still managing my cough now and treat the swelling. 

so yeah now on day 10, i will come out okay. 

keep on breathing ain!

i am a person with full of smile no matter what...
