Five years ago I had this pain, and this time around it has come again. It's a bitter lesson but I had to learn in a hard way. I woke up at 3am in the morning sensing something was wrong with the tummy. The pain was so excruciating even I had to climb out of bed when I was so tired. Then I vomited out a large amount of fluid, which didn't relieve the pain much. The pain still last till today with occasional cramps but getting better.
I had a jab yesterday in the hospital and ended up with an allergy! Then I had to take anti-allergy medicine which caused some drowsiness and I had to drive after that! Nobody can imagine how I could make it till home. I was taking a nap at the car park upon arrival until the rain started. It literally woken me up and I had to crawl out the car to get to the house. Then, knocked off to sleep till the next morning. That's how serious it was.
Sitting here today, I am glad that the event has passed and I am getting better. I was so worried that time that I might passed out in the toilet which would be a lil embarrassing, haha. So, I thought to myself, if it was just a dinner skipped a day before, that wouldn't cause such a tremendous pain that night. Probably it was due to irregular lunch time and after accumulated for so many days, it started to bleed or ulcerate till the stomach can't bear anymore.
I read an interesting article about the liver. The liver is like the best friend of any human being. It detoxes whatever toxins ppl might take and becomes hurt slowly without complaining. Meaning, people who took alcohol for a long period of time even without any symptoms can actually experience some liver impairment without realizing it until the liver can't function at all, it renders the owner to sickness.
So I guess that applies to my stomach. Even though I skipped lunch most of the time and that I don't feel hungry because I was too busy at work doesn't mean that my stomach don't need food. And yes, I would appreciate eating now.
The friends had gone back after a long weekend holiday here. We went to many places and I am glad to be the host again. Though it was rather hectic due to the short visit, we managed to get to places where we've made plans of. Most importantly, we were able to spend some quality time together and have time for heart to heart talk. We also ate our hearts out, mainly seafood and puddings!
And yes, we had some funny and crazy moments taking pictures, putting us back to those days in school. Reminiscing is good sometime. I am looking forward to catching up with others as well. Until then, I need to rest and recover soon.
Nitez.
