aries rx

i've probably spent more money on getting my health right this year than any other year in my life. ever! kaya chikka ko na lang sa madlang pipol kung anek-anek ang mga abnormalidad sa nafakagandang cuerpo ko. gusto ko ring marinig ang mga high level na mga opinion na maaring makatulong ng ever sa lola nyo. naks...

i. ang impaktang molar (impacted molar)

a. ang sakit
last year pa nag raise ng red flag ang dentist ko na ipatanggal na yung wisdom tooth na may mali sa pagtubo. hini-headbutt kasi nya yung seatmate nya. meaning pwede syang makagawa ng butas na pwedeng pasukan nga mga chorbang plaque, germs, tinga, bacteria at mga presedentiables na pwedeng ikasira nung ngipin na yon. ayon kay manang wikipedia ang tawag dito ay mesioangular impaction (the wisdom tooth is angled forward, towards the front of the mouth).

b. ang solusyon
impacted molar extraction. ibig sabihin, yung impaktang ipin na nasa kasuluk-sulukan ay bubunutin bago makabutas, maghasik ng lagim at manalo sa eleksyon. ang cost? 3-5k. more or less. medyo mahal para sa isang empleyado lang. pero kelangan. kaya hintay-hintay muna ng krismas bonus. may isa pang pero. kelangan kong magbyahe ng tagbilaran para sa operasyon. kelangan ng vonggang-vonggang equipment daw at chorbah-chorbang anesthesia para ma-entract yung impakta. kaya mahal. leche!!!

c. extra chikka
yung ermats ko may ka-windang ever na plano. pagkatapos daw ng extraction eh magpa-admit daw akez ng 24 hours sa hospital para maka-avail ng philhealth. di ko alam kung praktikal yun, kung alam nyo chikka nyo na lang...

2. baklang kalbo

a. ang sakit
androgenic alopecia. male pattern baldness. ayon sa aking pananaliksik(charing!) leading actress ng mpd daw ay genetics. at pag genetics na ang chikkahan, eh wa ka na magagawa. yun ang sabi. ayon sa norwood scale akez ay nasa stage 2 - anterior mpd na.


b. ang solusyon
dahil genetics yung salarin ma-giraffe ever na mabigyang-lunas ang mpb. pero may mga maintenance drugs naman yung gaga, kaya lang lifetime at pag nahinto, balik ulit at baka mas lumala pa, at hindi pang-masa yung presyo ng gamot.
gamot 1 - minoxydil. topical ito. pinapahid sa nakakalbong area. kelangan everyday yung pagpahid at yung mga hokbung tutubo eh baby hairs lang at nasa 500 pesos yung 50ml na spray bottle.
gamot 2 - fenasteride. oral naman ito. kelengan din everyday para may result. mas epektib daw. 1 mg per day at nasa 60+ pesos per 1mg tablet. may buhok ka nga pero wala ka nang pangkain. tse!
gamot 3 - di sya gamot actually. treatment sya. yung hair transplant. di ko alam yung detalye basta sigurado akong di sya mura. yun na!

c. extra chikka
ita-try ko pa yung aloe vera. alang aloe verang tumutubo sa'min. at kung meron pa kayong trusted at epektib na magic dyan, share naman...

3. goiter sosyal

a. ang sakit
hyperthyroidism caused by toxic multinodular goiter. hindi ito yung kulang ka sa iodine, sa hormones daw ito. sosyal sya kasi kahit anong lafang ko dati nasa 28 pa rin yung waistline ko. wagi! actually ganito yan. palpak yung immune system ko na maging ka friendster at ka facebook ng aking thyroid kaya akala nya foreign body itech. nag-react naman itung si aleng thyroid kaya naging hyper sya at bigay nang bigay ng hormones nag nagpapabilis ng heart rate, apetite at metabolism ng lola nyo. dahil din dito ako ay naging magugulatin, pasmado at insomniac akez. hindi lumaki yung leeg ko pero lumaki yumg mata ko, sumasakit palagi ang legs ko at ang dali ko mapagod.

b. ang solusyon
sinimulan na ang treatment ko nung april. hanggang ngayon ini-inom ko parin ang propylthiouracil(ptu) pero ayoko nang i-explain kung ano yon. ang hirap i-spelling. basta meron naman syang mga meds na pwedeng inumin pero kahit mag-exit na tong hyperthyroidism corbah eh may chance pa rin syang mag part 2, part 3, etc. parang mano po the movie. payo ni doc, wag daw ako ma stress ng sobra. sosyal!

c. extra chikka
although i'm way better than i was months ago, ang dali ko pa ring mahingal. wala namang gym dito sa'min na may cardio chuvah kaya kontento na sa skipping rope ang lola nyo hahaha.

yey moments

last week, nagkaron ng mumunting events ang life.

----------------------------


martes,

got my new students driver's license. i'm trying to get a non-prof so i can have at least one government id.

yey.

miyerkules,

went to tagbilaran city for my third lab test. was with my cousin and met two other cousins. strolled on two local malls. got my copy of ABNKKBSNPLAko!? and Ang Paboritong Libro ni Hudas by bob ong and had my laking national card renewed. i love books. and discovered that cute men and boys are plenty in tagbilaran city. *blush*

yey.

went home the same day then was met with barking puppy. mama bought it from a vendor from her school. i still like our old tukoy though. and i still want a puppy of my own.




yey.

huwebes,

my doc took out one tablet off my meds(propanolol). i now have taking one tab of ptu twice a day and multivitamins. sabi daw sa result ng lab test, two of the three hormones are already normal pero yung isa sobrang mababa pa (yung TSH, thyroid simulating hormone). progress is good naman daw.

yey.

biyernes,

may binili kaming abono galing sa kapitbahay. nagandahan ako sa sako.



yey.

follow which teaching?

ika 16 ng agosto. sunday. ang ganda ng araw. alas singko ng hapon nagsimula na ako sa mga mumunting beauty rituals ko para magsimba for the 6pm mass. di naman magarbo yung mga ritwal kaya 15 mins lang at natapos rin yung lola mo sa banyo. rampa na sa kwarto, then may tumawag. galing sa kataas-taasang hukuman ng tahanan (a.k.a. ermats)

"may bagong biling isda dyan. linisin mo baka masira"

ako: "ha!? magsisimba ako eh"
tapos naglitanya na yung mudra sa katamaran ng lola mo, sa pagpapalaki nya, sa kawalan ko ng silbi, sa kawalan ko ng utang na loob blah blah blah chorbah...

dumating si papa. umapila ako kay papa. wa epek. pagod si pudra. tsaka kahit anong ebidensya ang ipakita ko eh wa pa rin. korte suprema na si mama.

natuloy ang pagsimba. 6 pm yung misa. mga 6:30 na komi sa simbahan.

-----------------------------------

ika trenta ng agosto. linggo. umaga pa lang nagsabi na ako kay papa na 4pm kami magsisimba ng bunso ko na fresh from the queen city.

mga 3:30-ish(sosyal) na ako nag trip to da banyo na feeling galing nassau, bahamas... and then...

"may bagong pitas na buko dyan, buksan mo tapos lagyan ng gatas blah blah blah..."

ako: :"ha!? magsisimba na kami"

tapos may speech ulit. ako ay walang utang na loob. ako ay tamad. mas mabuti pa ang ibang tao. ang sarap ko nang palayasin. ako ay walang silbi sa bahay, ako ay walang silbi, ako ay walang... basta yun na...

deadma. nagchange costume na ako para ka Bro. naks.

pero si bunso apektado. di na kinayang magpalit. yung pagod kong pudra na kasalukuyang nag lalaba ng damit nya ang nag chorbah nung buko. si bunso ang nagkuskus. si mama nag speech pa rin. wa choice ang lola mo. nagpalit na rin ako ng pambahay.

ako: " ako na lang"

papa: "magsimba ka na lang"

galit si papa. nangatwiran ako. "bakit ba nagagalit ka. bakit kanina eh walang nakapagsabi na di pwedeng mag simba sa alas kwatro?"

galit na ever si papa. na di ko ma gets kung bakit galit sya sakin. seryoso na to. kinuha nya yung revolver. tinutok sa kin. pinutok sa lupa. di ako natakot. eh, sa kung di ko pa rin makuha kung bakit sya sakin magagalit. kompleto abiso na man ako sa kanya.

pagkatapos nun may speach pa rin si mama. ganun pa rin wala pa rin akong silbi. pero may dagdag na. akez daw ang magiging rason ng kamatayan ng buong familya. ouchness.

nakapag simba rin kami ni bunso. sumunod si papa pero sa malayo kami nakaupo. si mama, ewan.

hay...

binibaby

friday last week, kelangang magpa check-up ng pinsan. yung baby nyang 10 months old iniwan sa 'kin. si baby gino. gudlak.



napilitan kong ilabas ang lahat ng maternal powers na meron ako. in fairness, may nailabas naman. naks. pinaglaro kung lang kung anong toys na naiwan sa cabinet ng kapatid ko. konti lang andali nyang nainip. kelangan ko syang kargahin hanggang makatulog. at dahil sa pinagsamang kapangyarihan ng magandang ihip ng hangin sa hapon at ng pagbulong ko sa kanya na "matulog ka na baby... matulog ka na baby (repeat to fade)", mga ilang minuto lang inabot na nang antok yung bata. nangamoy pawis din ako. saktong pagdating ng mudra at pudra nya eh nagising din si baby.


sana may ganun ding epekto yung bulong - bulong sa mga cutiepie na otoko hahaha "ibigin mo ako baby... ibigin mo ako baby (repeat to fade)". wala lang.

-----------------------

me is in grave danger

i have something inside my neck but it's not any fluid of some hunk. lol.

my thyroid has grave's desease a.k.a. toxic goiter. somehow my thyroid failed to recognize the he is a part of my body, making quite an excess of these t3 and t4 hormones. i have no idea what they are but that's what doc says.

----------------------------

i did some research. wikipedia said:

Graves' disease is an autoimmune disease. It most commonly affects the thyroid, causing it to grow to twice its size or more (goiter), be overactive, with related hyperthyroid symptoms such as weight loss, frequent defecation, disturbed sleep, and irritability. It can also affect the eyes, causing bulging eyes (exophthalmos).

Graves' disease may present clinically with one of the following characteristic signs:

* exophthalmos (protuberance of one or both eyes)
* a non-pitting edema (pretibial myxedema), with thickening of the skin usually found on the lower extremities
* fatigue, weight loss with increased appetite, and other symptoms of hyperthyroidism
* rapid heart beats
* muscular weakness

----------------------------

i don't see any bulging of my neck or thickening of any skin. at least not yet. my eyes really are bigger than before, i eat 6 full meals now but i'm slimmer than i was last year, i sweat buckets when i'm just walking, my blood pressure is 140 over 60 and my thighs and arms ache usually at night.

so there, i'm officially a sick man. doc has given me medications though but she does not want to see me working in a few months. so i'm sick and unemployed.

my butt is also stuck in bohol now. i'll be here til doc says i'm ok to work. haay life. i miss cebu.

tag-hirap

sa mga nag message sa chat box, salamat. kaya lang di pa rin kaya.

things are really bad now. a politician from our town wants me to work at our soon-to-open LTO office (and become his connection when he runs for mayor). i don't want to look at the face of corruption in one of the government office famous for it. i refused the offer. now, i'm looked down by my parents for the unpractical decision.

then our company announced to dissolve the cebu office. now i'm a bum. no call from any company hr yet.

haay... depressed. poor. tired. unwanted.

...but not sad. marunong pa rin naman akong kumembot, rumampa at magmaganda. char...

sya kantahan na lang muna...
