i always think my uncles and aunties are trying to bluff their way out of physio
when they say their 'tao gong gong' and 'kar bor lart' (giddy and weak in the legs)
until today...
when i was done treating one of my patients..
and was about to write my notes...
i was hit by a sudden sensation of 'tao gong gong' and 'kar bor lart'...
as i sit down and try and ignore the 'gong gong' feeling...
i knew that i need sugar...
so, after writing my notes, i bought a cup of hot milo..
and slowly sip it...
and i did feel better after that..
so, i went on to see my patients...

but, as i entered the physio office when i'm done for the day...
sitting in front of the comp and doing billing...
the same sensation hit me again...
only this time, i feel like i am going to faint...
like i did 5 years ago in AH...
so, after my billing is done...i munched on a choc bun
while carolina asked me if i want a lift home...
considering i am at the brink of fainting...
taking the mrt alone isn't a good idea..
dunno if the people on the mrt knows what to do if i faint...so i guess, faint in carolina's car is safer lah
though i must say i am shocked that the cake din help at all...usually choc works well
cos through the ride home, i was feeling woozy...and instead of 'kar bor lart'...
i feel more like 'kar neng neng' (wobbly legs)
so when i got out of her car..
and walk up the slope to my block...
i can fully empathise with how one of my patients was feeling today...
when she was standing there and her legs start trembling...

but, i made it home..safe and sound...
first thing i asked was 'is dinner ready?'
and my mum retorted 'blood sugar low again?'
to which i replied 'yah lor'
so instead of the usual justbrushaside response i get from mummy...
she is now worried that i am seriously anaemic...
and not hypoglycaemic..
and i agree with her...
cos i am not diabetic mah..where got anyhow then hypo one??
so she is thinking of bringing me to see chinese sinseh...
i dun mind lah..maybe it'll work..
and she asking me to eat iron tablets
*eewwgghh* my poo is gonna look black...
oh well...at least now i feel almost back to normal after dinner...

received a call while i was in carolina's car...
so nice when someone cares enough to call and check that i'm fine...
*sniffle*
suddenly feel so pampered by the attention
from the phone call..from mummy's change in attitude...
suddenly also feel very useless...
so young then already 'tao gong gong' and 'kar neng neng'
hopeless lah...

mmm...still so sleepy today...
had a weird dream last night..
which i was crying and crying..
and when i woke up, my eyes feel like golf balls
so i went to work today wearing glasses instead of contacts..
and everyone was like 'eh? why u wear glasses??'
one of my colleague thought i look studious...
i personally thought i look nerdy...
oh well...nerdy or not...
not as if my patients are gonna care...
and no cute docs anyway...haha...
so nerdy then nerdy lor...

but wear glasses to work...quite troublesome...
putting on the N95 mask need to take out glasses first...
and when i wear surgical mask, my glasses will fog up...sigh
but...when my eyes are like golf balls...
it's impossible to get my contacts in comfortably...
so...fogging and nerdiness will be something i have to endure with lah...

wah..blogged so much crap again...
when i am tired..i just get crappier and crappier...
i think my brain suffered damage from the lack of glucose and oxygen just now...
okie..i am babbling..
time to slack off...tv time!
