ola people. how are you? i think it's been ages since i last posted something here. i miss blogging.
since starting on the new job, i've got absolutely no time to do other things. because of the long hours at work, once i reach home, the only thing i wanna do is to plonk myself on the sofa and rest.
and the health hasnt been good too. for a few weeks now, i've been waking up every morning with the urge to vomit. and sometimes, yes, i do vomit. it's not a nice feeling waking up and then doing a merlion. especially when i have to run to the toilet just to do that. all the rush in the mornings are not good for me.
and then everytime i wanna eat, there's this urge to puke. so i started to detest eating. even the smell of food makes me heave a huge breath. i will still force feed myself, then as expected, everything will be expelled out. so i vomit more than i eat.
went to the doctor twice, doc says it's gastritis. got medicine, didnt help much. coz the medicine will be out before it's fully digested. it was that harrowing.
1st month, i lost 7kgs. scary right? then 2 weeks later, im down another 5kgs. i got scared of the weighing machine. i mean, i know im overweight. i still am. but it's the rate that im losing weight that was making me worried. and i miss eating.
and one fine night, i couldn't sleep. i had a toothache. terrible one. imagine, the nausea and stomach upset. and then the toothache. boleh giler dibuatnya. went to work still, and lucky for me, the workplace has dentists. asked one of the dentists to help, and he pulled one tooth for me and said that one more tooth needs a root canal treatment.
VOILA. suddenly i remembered. i read somewhere. a tooth requiring root canal treatment will cause stomach upset and nausea because of the abscess fluid. goodness me. Alhamdulillah, i found my answer. i am very sure that my nausea and stomach upset were caused by the abscess tooth.
the tooth seems a little better now, i think the extraction helped to ease the uneasiness a bit. and alhamdulillah, the appetite is back. although there are mornings that i wake up with a slight tinge of nausea, but alhamdulillah, things are looking a little better. the tooth still requires root canal treatment, but it's too costly, i think i will have to just pull it. bogeh pun bogeh lah, yang penting aku sihat, inshaAllah.
looking back, i make du'a that i will not go through that phase again. it's harrowing, wanting to eat, but wasn't able to. i will make sure i will not utter the word 'diet' again. hahaha!!
anyway, im now down 12kgs from my previous weight. nice to see the weighing scale showing me my weight now, but i wish i had done it the healthier way.
may Allah grant me and you good health always, inshaAllah, Ameen.
ilal liqaa'...!!
