Today I had to fast from 8.30am onwards, including no drinks at all. Allowed 2 slices of plain white bread plus a cup of kopi with sugar only & to take my lozartan. If am thirsty, I rinse my mouth & dizzy, take hacks sweet only.
Maybe am too stressed up & anxious, I dun feel hungry at all but dizzy which I took a sweet. When it was my turn, nurse brought me in, had a robe over me & later called into Suite 2 on operating table. Dr Ng asked if it's my 1st time & whether wanna be sedated. I choose to have as I was very anxious ut Dr Ng informed me about the risk & fair enough he tried but unable to give as vein too deep to be located.
Local anesthesia was sprayed into my mouth & told to swallow...argh..then monitor my BP which was 200/100 & one nurse panicked. Dr Ng assured me, instructed me to breathe in air by mouth as he need to let my saliva out of my mouth & there the endoscope goes into my mouth & I vomitted a few times, yucks!! Though with a mouth gag, my tongue managed to clamp the scope & Dr Ng had to say dun clamp dun clamp, relax...
It makes me sick manz...the nurses had to hold me down & Dr Ng said soothing words. I could feel the thick endoscope wriggling inside my stomach & intestine...he said 10 mins only but felt extremely long...
When it's ok, Dr Ng pulled out the endoscope to remove air inside my stomach & there I spitted & vomitted..Eeewwwsssssss....I was pushed to recovery area. After a while, nurse came & let me down, had a wash & rinse. Sat down rest head as I was feeling very giddy. Given watery milo & biscuits...watery milo could be due to just done endoscopy & also not to upset stomach further...but I didn't eat biscuit, so dry...I took sweet instead.
Was given 3 days mc in which Dr Ng informed me that this might cause sore throat. Nurse kept saying must come back to see gastric doctor at clinic C & was given medication. Dr found that there's stomach wall inflammation - gastritis.
I remember DNE nurse whom advised me to take plain porridge or soup base food, take small amounts but frequent for stomach to adjust back to normal.
