I'm sick today... have stomach flu or whatever. Its something like food poisoning with vomiting and diarrheoa. i used to wonder which is worse. Constipation or diarrhoea. Now I know its definately diarrhoea... and it does not help if their is vomiting to compliment it. Now no matter what delicious food u put in front of me i simply have no apetite. I was supposed to go for my aunty's birthday celebration but i simply feel so weak and have no apetite. Its a good thing i am off today and tomorrow...
Yesterday i was very energetic going to work. It was a rather relaxing day and i even had time to go for my tea break and dinner... But after dinner i was doing tube feeding for one of my patients then suddenly i felt a bit uncomfortable, like a sort of queezy feelings in my arms and legs. i stopped my work for a while and all i could think was to go out and get a seat... Suddenly everything in front of me was all black .. But i seemed to hear my surrounding noises better. In the end i passed out on my seniors's armsIt was simply too tiring to try to keep awake. But i could hear my senior's voice saying they wanted to do blood sugar on me and give me glucose drink but after that i sort of woke up and started vomiting my whole dinner, so it definately has no problme with me not eating anything. In the end they measured my blood pressure and it was only 50/25. They brought me to the single room and gave me some water to rinse my mouth and rest for a while... After that although i was better but i still felt very tired and my brain felt over exerted. I think its due to lack of oxygen... But i really have no idea why this happened. It could be the food that i ate at marina bay 2 days before that causes food poisoning
but i dun think it causes fainting.
But its true that when are sick u feel more emotional and sometimes want some attention. So i will try to be more attentive to my patients though they sometimes irritate the hell out of me... hehe... I was thinking it would be so nice if there was someone to take care and love me when i am sick or in health... haha... i sound pathethic maybe...but i guess its ok to show my weak side sometimes... Its also true when they say hearing is the last thing that goes off even when u are in coma u can still hear very well but u can't seem to move ur body so i will try to be more gentle to my coma patients cause they definately know what i am doing. haha
And yesterday i am very happy cause i got a compliment from one of my patient family members. I told her i am only 5 months old as a staff
nurse and she said she could not tell she said i look as if i have been working for a year and more. Means to say I am good at my work..
Ok i think i am going to get some sleep. Seems like all i do when i am sick is sleep,watch tv and drink some thin fluids and go toilet to answer nature call +++
