Sorry for the lack of update... was recently BEEN thru some interesting phase in life!!!

Two weeks ago after the Nike run.. that night had a late dinner with Lam.. the nose started to bleed.. I thought it could just be some dehydration stuff or body being heaty as I have been sleeping damn EARLY in the morning.

So just ignore it.. then middle of the night.. the blood seems to be coming... thru the right nose...

So just put tissues and ignore it..

Then it happen again on Monday.. its kind of extraordinary.. middle of the night also the blood keep coming.. WTF....its not the ordinary bloody stuff.. keep gushing like hell's blood.. lotsa of... flow like pipe water dripping..

So on Tuesday.. I went to take some chinese herbal to cool myself down. It did stop only for awhile.. That evening it came again.. so I laid to rest before going to my boss dad's funeral ceremony.

At the ceremony ..it bleed again.. so I left early.. and the image of the lady in the MTV of TONGHUA bleeding keep coming..WTF.. is this some terminal stuff or what.. So I checked into the cheap myhome hotel near my house and spend a night as the weather is hot.. Thinking it could cool myself and stop the bleeding.. No it did not..at 3am.. I was looking at the mirror ..and pinching my nose as hard as I can.. it kind of like ghost movie.. the blood keep coming.. endlessly.. So finally heard the alarm ringing..

oFF I went to Hospital KL.. and the doctor gave me some medicine to numb it and ask me to come in the morning for the specialist clinic.. ENT.. ear nose and throat... advised me to come in 7:30..coz lotsa ppl wor.. oh the blood pressure was pretty high!!

So I went back to hotel and sleep.. could felt the blood flowing from my nostril thru my lung bit by bit.. this is no good.. I slept until 10 plus and try to take out the tissues..WTF.. it bleed even more... so shower up and stuck the toilet paper in my nose.. almost used up the whole roll of it. Then I drove to hospital and went to ENT.. wtf..LOTSA lotsa ppl.. but due to my conditions.. they straight away asked me to the surgery room.

Was asked to remove the tissues.. and blood gushing out again! was given the ice pack!! it was about almost half an hour before all subside.. and was taken blood pressure.. I never bother to read or understand about blood pressure anyway.. then another lady came in also same fate as me.. wow.. also nose bleed and was given the ice pack. Ahahaha.. so in an hour the doctor came.. put this 10 inches plus scope thingy in my nose.. wow..that was rather uncomfortable.. they were like mechanics grinding thru all the corner and discussing whatever nostril holes blah blah.. yucks.. and it was confirm I have hypertension!! The cause of it that rupture my vein and cause the bleeding..

So I was immediately warded lah. and cannot balik.. hmm.. how to cook up some story to tell my mum.. well.. but that part was being taken care of lah as I was season out of sudden outstation fler.. Hehehe.. mum had hypertension and crack her knee cap two weeks before that.. so would not want to alert anyone.

So I spend a good few days here at ward with no air-cond.. but it was fine.. lotsa fine young nurses attending... :p... the best part about this young nurses.. 4 times drawing blood 8 holes in both my hands.. Opps.. every time have to do it again. .The initial poking was done by a young chap in ENT.. he actually poke my bone.. and the bone kinda sticking out.. wow.. that was interesting.. ahaha.. whatever lah..

But overall the service of Hospital Kuala Lumpur had improved so much.. There are more doctors these day and staff and rather efficient and friendly I would say. I hope they keep up the service!! Two thumbs up and plenty of room for improvement. Then there was this dietitian doctor.. SYT..SYT..SYT.. advising me of diet.. and I was given the full attention and vice vesa OF COURSE...

Was rather freaky when i was so bored and browsing thru the internet on my tiny nokia phone to find out more about hypertension.. damn it.. it was no joke.. I could already develop pre-hypertension for sometime now.

ECG.. XRAY.. blah blah.. blah.. blood pressure was taken almost like 6 - 8 times a day.

surging up and down... sigh.. what do u expect.. after years of indulgence and bad habits.

So the number 1 killer.. outside food with high procees salt/sodium and MSG.. no wonder so many ppl are diagnose with that..

No 2 for me is work tension which I guess I does not manage it well... My fault...

No.3 late night sleep or early early morning sleep..

Thanks to my bunch of cohorts who visited me at the hospital.. Thanks to Alan, Lam, Teresa and Derrick.. who took the trouble to get stuff for me.. Thanks a lot guys..

Thanks to the klang runners ppl that keep calling me and asking of my welfare. I am touched and keeping myself well now.

Doctor said I was rather lucky that I did not had the rupture on the brain.. like the old man across my bed there.. else I could caught stroke.. walau eh.. The guy next to me even had this tube in his nose.. his bleeding was even more severe!! Was there for a week plus.. and only a day before I was discharge he got his tube clear off.. and he have to breath thru his mouth only.. pathetic..

yEA.. I am damn lucky...and lucky not to get stroke...

So lotsa thinking in the hospital... and stamp and seal some decisions.

Well.. I had been practising alkaline diet 90% of the time now. Steam and cook my meal at home. Unless it was some obligatory or gathering will I eat outside food now.

It was a rather amazing diet. lost 7kgs in a week even without exercising. This is really good stuff.. but gotta keep alkaline food up to 90% of the time. I think I begin to like this diet now.. Felt much stronger and happy. The mucus has been really really thinning and no more coughing now from the acidic bowel. No more inflammation in the stomach. In fact last Saturday I could ride that Putrajaya hill without much panting though could feel the blood pressure is still on the high side..

No more late sleep and manage work well.

So I guess my next appointment with the Hospital obesity department this early December should not be much of a problem.

So everyone.. keep your blood pressure check frequently.. and it one of those silent killer where it do it to you quietly.. Spooky to find lotsa friends are on medications for long term now even ppl as early as mid 20s.. This is wrong man.. Luckily I does not succumb to drinking or smoking.. or else I could tapau at the hospital arrival hall that day..

Ok.. goodnite everyone.
