First time Mom
Hello guys ,
This is not just an ordinary story but a lesson worth-sharing to all especially for the first time MOMs out there or for those women who are sacrificing their own health/self for others . YES ! IT IS OKAY TO sacrifice for our family , for work especially for our children momshies ... but never EVER neglect/sacrifice our own physical and mental health . WE cannot be the best version of OURSELVES as a daughter, a mother , a wife and as an employee if WE dont know how to take care of OUR OWN SELF.
First of all,
I know this is very late but I would like to THANK YOU those people who greeted me on my birthday last February 19th . I was actually not able to celebrate it myself but thank you for celebrating it for me .It really means a lot !!! thank you!
This is the story ;
The First Sign
On the day of my birthday , i had a long day at work and i really wanted to celebrate it in the evening with family 🇵🇭🇯🇵 and friends.
Unfortunately, after my work shift , I was already worn out and was chilling terribly. When I got home, I had a very high fever over. 40 degrees, but i was pretty sure back then it’s not covid thus the feeling was so strange and there’s this burning sensation in my left abdomen/stomach. * but still I continued my role as a mom to my very active son whose cuteness and charm I can`t resist... charr!!!
Two days after , February 21st ,I was feeling better and decided to go to the clinic for a swab test just to make sure … and (HOORAY!) it was negative.
Days have passed ,back to work , back to my normal routine though, I knew there’s something wrong but i ignored all the symptoms especially that i have a baby to take care of . *kanang pa feeling strong lagi ta ba !!! but honestly, during these days , deep inside I was already so anxious, depressed, and frustrated cause I felt like Im fighting alone. Yes, i have a husband - he is supporting me in his own way but still its totally different *kapoy jhud as in!
March 4 Friday- 2nd sign
This fire in my abdomen/stomach keeps burning manjhud oyy but this time it has sharp/tingling sensation *murag dagom na ang gisugnod na ba hahaha . So , once again ... I ignored this one again and even invited a friend in the house for dinner ..* Shabu-Shabu pa kunuhay me ani nga time without knowing its gonna make the condition worse
Two days after nasad ...
March 6 Sunday-3rd sign
I got a high fever once again but this time , it’s very alarming najhud … The left side of my stomach/abdomen is painful and the burning/tingling sensation is back ,plus nausea, chills and back pain. Sometimes, it’s difficult for me to even stand or move pero cge lang “kumbatikudasai” ang peg . * Same thing nagpaka-mama gihapon ko ... of choooors....lisud mag single mom oyy hahaha but don`t get me wrong naa gihapon koy bana hah! akoa lang jhud siya giaway ning mga panahuna hahahaha
March 7 Monday- 1st Visit ;The REVELATION *chaaar
So , Monday ,I asked permission from the workplace to be absent for a day lang unta cause I decided to go to the clinic. (Hay! Lisud pajhud kaayo pangita ug clinic ari kay kasagaran walay english service) .
So, mao nato , nag urine test na … the result ani is I have a URINARY TRACT INFECTION ( UTI ) kay mao lagii kining di na maona atoang self kay naay bata , usahay sa usa ka-adlaw intawn kaduha ra makaihi , pugong2 sa ihi , usahay magkabasa2 panang atoang panty kay mao to dili dayon ta kadagan sa toilet , naa pa gani panahon nga hala dal.on nalng pod sa toilet ang bata . one time , naabtan jhud ko ug nakaihi ko sa elevator dire sa amoang building , pait sad ning naa sa 10th floor inyuhang room oyy hahaha si banana intawn nag sunod trapo hahaha sekret raman ta ni namo oyy hahaha AYAW MO SABA gisultian ta mo hah! It was hilarious!
So , the doctor told me that there is an inflammation in some parts of my organs caused by bacteria daw that i kept for several weeks without taking antibiotics .To confirm which organs ,my stomach/abdomen should be scanned through ultrasound which will be done supposedly on the 23rd of March pa unta kay lagii mobalik sa ko ug work and I was hoping that by that day during the ultrasound ma normal ra ug balik ang tanan ..kay mag take naman ko ug antibiotics for UTI.
My doctor is an expert really ! She also thinks that I am anemic knowing that i have a baby at home so she conducted another test which is the VAMPIRE`s favorite test ... do you know what is it ?????????? hahaha you guess! .
So this is it pancit .....
March 8 Tuesday- 2nd visit The shocking REVELATION
The blood test result is determined and YES, its positive! i have an anemia and my pancreas is in danger too because of my eating habit *di lagii pataka ug paslak sa baba, anyhow at this point my kidneys are safe ...also the doctor mentioned about the possibility of pancreatitis, diverticulitis and appendicitis. So , instead of March 23rd - the ultrasound examination is now highly a priority to really make sure which others got inflamed ... so that it can be treated right away.
March 9 Wednesday- The Final Revelation with a twist *charrooot napod😁😁😁
Quiz: What sound does ultramAN LIKE? COMMENT DOWN BELOW fOR YOUR ANSWER 😄😄😄 hahahaha
Today , I LEARN A LOT FROM MY DOCTOR .
THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER , PROPER FOOD INTAKE , THE DOS AND DONTS ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN BODY ORGANS ESPECIALLY IN OUR DIGESTIVE SYSTEM AND WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF IMPROPER STRESS MANAGEMENT
This morning , during the ultrasound ..the doctor showed to me my internal organs and i was amazed because i thought i can only see those organs in a science book. hahaha! She really explained everything well to me !!!☺️😄😁😆 so happy, very satisfying! hahaha
Anyway ,
So here it is , My intestines ,gallbladder, liver, stomach, rectum,anus, appendix,pancreas and kidney were checked.
And again , POSITIVE! I am diagnosed with acute pancreatitis ,diverticulitis and acute appendicitis and my both kidneys have small stones as well but nothing to worry that much its manageable naman daw just keep drinking a lot of water .
To sum up everything,
I waited for many signs before realizing that health is wealth jhud diay oyy..
We are not super human , we may have the strong will to fight our individual battles in life but our body has its own limitations . Don’t wait until everything is taken from you especially your one and only LIFE !
