from one to another
Monday tu, the doc just scanned my stomach, turned out i had the same luck with Aini...ada batu karang :( One stone, measured at 4mm roughly. Since my explanation was a bit weird (ppl had batu karang usually feel the pain at the lower part of perut/pinggang/abdomen eh?) but i did not...mine was more on the ulu hati, so he concludes i need to do further test.
Yesterday, he did the procedure, first spray ubat bius inside anak tekak (pahit giler, lucky i did not vomit in front him :p), then after one jab at my hand, terus pengsan tak sedar. About 15-20 minutes je kot..ntahla...cant remember anything. A camera was inserted, from mouth going to tekak, not sure whether it reached the stomach or not hehe. The result, he said inflammation at my esophagus (called esophagustrities, apology for my spelling ok tak tahu :p), so he just gave 2 types of medicine. As for the stone, he told not to worry or do anything..nothing serious about that, i should be alarm only when i have the symptons like sakit2 kat bwh perut tu. Betul ke unda? what your lecturers/experience/books tell u about this?
Please advise if u/any friends out there know specific foods/drinks to eat so that the stone can hancur by itself and wipe out thru urine. Seriously i was freaked the whole day yesterday but today i guess myself is back to normal kot...alhamdulillah harap2 this is not as serious as i think. Follow-up will be next Tuesday, hope i am all ok as usual.
Today am on mc. But now im in the office, settling some works, attending jamuan hari raya office, and hehe obviously writing this entry. Tomorrow we will be off to kuching until saturday. Sunday got two makan2 invitations...harap2 no gastric attack during these precious wonderful days ahead. As for me, starting from this episode, i should take more precaution on my food intake...do not dare to put my health at risk after this kind of things happening at my age. Kena control makan..jgn belasah je ok!
Salam all...take care!

more on gastric...
Felt a bit relieved after series of vommiting, maybe angin dah takde dlm perut. Weekend came, i was all OK with no signs of gastric at all. Lucky for me since we got few invitations on these 2 days, but i made a point to myself not to overeat or else i might go to the toilet again :) Yesterday we went to 2 houses in Bangi and Equine, also to Nilai 3 in between to look for something and ended up bought other things :p This evening i had an appointment with a doc, specialized in gastroenterologist, hope he'll able to give some detail explanation and solution to my stomach problem.
Open house? NO it will not be in this Syawal due to our packed schedule. However i expect we'll be able to 'open' our house for frens and relatives somewhere in December insya allah, right after exam. Cannot play2 anymore since i 'kantoi' a bit in my recent modules...guess i need to be more serious and persevere for the next 6 subjects je lagik nyeh nyehhh
p/s: Aini, jgn malas2 mkn ubat...jgn gi shopping time mc :p

of gastric
Back home, try to sleep and rest but couldnt...so lepas asar, terus ke garden cewahh...semangat waja gitu! But upon seeing almost all the newly-planted pokok2 macam nak layu, terus rasa pressure huhu...either the plants get shocked because we transferred it to tanah, or it was just merely our hands yg soooo panas dan tak rasi :( Sedey banget rasa huhu. But anyway, guess the project is almost 70% completed, pending to clean the porch and awaiting ppl to install pergola and pond.
Night time, around 940pm, our neighbour next door ajak pegi beraya ke rumah jiran...so lepas beraya, sambung berborak kat luar rumah sampai 11pm....sakan kan :p
Weekend is coming and am fully booked with open house and class....nx week will be going to kuching, cant wait to savour the ever delicious kek lapis cadbury nyeh nyehhh...soon after that Bandung is waiting....wah wah...lepas tu terus exam punyerla tak best :(

update update!
Since everybody is talking about their menu, I’ll be sharing mine as well.
Well like last year, I choose to cook during the holy month of ramadhan. The rest of the months, we usually opt to buy foods from outside. No need for justification, it’s just me and the penyakit “M”, to answer your question hehehe. Perhaps the spirit of Ramadhan and its ‘barakah’ that turns me slightly ‘rajin’ than before :p
First day, I cook nasi lemak for sahur. Woke up at 4am and managed to get everything ready earlier than expected. Well B has mentioned he wants something heavy during the earlier weeks, that’s why la nasi lemak menjadi pilihan. The first day was indeed challenging, I felt so sleepy like monsters and could hardly opened my eyes at office. The sleepiness even made me dizzy and later gave me migraine like hell huhu. Sampai loya2 dlm kereta on the way back (bukan preggie ok). But again thanks for the barakah in ramadhan, I still cook for berbuka..kari ikan bawal, sayur campur telur and chicken poppers….simple and enough to feast our stomach alhamdulillah.
Taking lesson from the 1st day, the second day I woke up a bit late, 440am hehe. Recycle the last’s night curry, goreng telur kicap and ikan gelama masin….ishh sedap sungguh pekena ikan masin! It was my 1st time in life I bought ikan masin and fry on my own, serius x tipu hehe dahsyat kan….
So menu seterusnye, ayam masak kicap, sausage sweet sour, kangkung goreng belacan dan cempedak goreng. The next day we had potluck at my mom’s and I cooked udang masak cili kering+serai & sup daging n fishball. I even prepared popia and freeze it, senang goreng je time berbuka….this time special thanx to B, he was the one who did all the folding :) Sunday came, B suggested to go to bazaar ramadhan and I declared a public holiday to Mr kitchen. And yesterday, again simple menu jer..ikan kerisi goreng, bilis goreng cili padi, sup sayur n nugget.
Well am not that very good in cooking but tak kira, nak share jugak tips of fast (1 hr cooked time) and simpe cooking….blend cili kering siap2, kupas segala jenis bawang siap2, perap ikan/ayam siap2 and letak kat fridge the lower part…(sumer orang dah tahu ni kot haha) And either am so organize or pathetic, I even prepared my menu list (so far sampai 10 hari je, sbb blank dah x tau nk masak ape :p). Kepala ni jugak dah fikir macam2 pasal dessert, but so far only popia and cempedak goreng yg materialize…the rest is still in white paper. I’ll be having my final this com Saturday, after that I have sufficient 2 weeks to prepare dessert yg best2 sket and biskut raya yeye!
Opps it’s already 4.24am. The two angels of mine still in deep slumber, and me from 12am burning the light pulun wat assignment :( I wonder if anyone else out there also doing what I’m doing right now….aini yuhuu ko tgh stay up jugak ker???? Jgn diriku menjadi zombie lagi hari ni sudah ler huhuhu..
Oh menu sahur kejap lagi..dried fried noddle! Off to kitchen peeps!
p/s: I’ll share my MIL’s udang masak cili kering+serai tuh next time ok..insya allah sedap, but no picas whatsoever…dlm kelam kabut mane sempat capai kamera daa.
amacam k.nieta...panjang tak hehehehe

birthday wish...
Takziah buat Zarid & Famy
Pasti ada hikmah di sebalik semua yg terjadi....bila difikirkan apelah sangat ujian yg aku terima baru2 ni berbanding dgn apa yg Allah turunkan kepada mereka berdua.
Aku masih ingat kata2 sokongan Pn. Limau sebelum ni..mungkin Allah akan menggantikan dgn yg lebih baik daripada ini...
Semoga Zarid & Famy tabah dan redha dgn ketentuan Illahi, insya Allah arwah akan menunggu kalian berdua di sana.
Al-Fatihah~
