POST OP 27/11/2020

Documenting my first GA surgical procedure - DONE!! I was so nervous prior to the op.. I always eat or drink something once every 2 to 3 hours because of low blood sugar and functional dyspepsia, so the thought of having to fast 6 hours from 10am to 4pm made me really nervous. Not to mention my fear of nausea and vomiting after op (because some people can have it so bad after GA) that caused so much anxiety pre-op.

So... For those who don't know, I'd undergone a surgical procedure to remove a (not too small) breast lump and super thankful to the surgeons Dr Tan Yah Yuen and anaesthetist Dr Tan Su Meng for making the whole procedure so pain-free. To be honest it almost felt silly now looking back at how scared I was. But strangely, I was feeling excited before the op! While in the OT holding area, every pre-op patient was lying down on their stretcher bed, I was the only one stretching here twisting there, sitting up and looking all around because first time mah! 😁😎I was even in the OT asking questions and this and that and telling everyone about ODP before I knocked out completely. Woke up shortly after op in a hysterical high mood and was saying HI to everyone who walked past the OT holding room.... 😂 People must be wondering who is this weirdo. 🤣 Nurses at Mount E are always so friendly and kind and they were chatting with me non stop to distract me from whatever anxiety I had. Super thankful to each and every of them though I'm sorry I may have forgotten your name after checkout. (Raquel, YM, Amm 😘...)

Discharged and home resting now. Told not to move too much in the next 1 to 2 weeks and probably able to workout one month from now. CAN'T WAIT!!
And hopefully biopsy results are clear... Will update again tomorrow...
