Long Story short, I was at the company doc due to sharp tummy pains that causes me to blackout. Doc was examining my tummy; pressing the right side of my tummy when I gave a loud scream, the sharp pain was unbearable. He continued to press it and I continued screaming. We are both certain that my left side is fine and that the right side seems to be killing me. He said that area is where the appendix and ovary are and wanted me to head to A&E immediately for a checkup! I turned white as he wrote the referral letter. I called D immediately and after discussing, we decided to head to my family doc for a second opinion before going to the hospital. I am soooooo glad I went to my family doc for she has all my past records and knows my condition better. She went to examine my tummy but the pain was gone. She did however said its not normal for anyone to pass out due to tummy pains but I went for my health check up yearly and there was no sign of tummy problems. After doing a blood pressure check on me, she noticed my heartbeat is slower than normal and while checking my past records, she noticed it has always been a slow 56 and told me one’s regular heartbeat should be 60 and above. Only athletics heartbeat is this slow but since I ain’t no hardcore gym fanatic, it ain’t too normal. This got me remembering the report I got from Raffles Medical, they did point out about my slow heartbeat and since its not really life threatening, I need not see a cardiologist. However my family doc wanted me to head for a full health check soon along with an abdominal scan together with an appointment with the cardiologist. Sigh… I called up Raffles Hospital for a full body checkup and I hope its true that ‘laughter cures even the most serious illness’ cos I am one walking laughing dictionary… pray for me my friends…
