Cyst's here again....sigh!

Apr 06, 2005 16:11

it does seems like i only update my lj with bad news....had abdominal pains since last friday and suspecting that the cyst may be back, i did an ultrascan yesterday. was told the cyst is 4cm in diameter this time round. unfortuately, i overheard my gynae muttering "ovarian cyst ah?" to herself and felt a keen sense of dread there and then. as usual ( Read more... )

What has E done to you?? You look like you have lost plenty of weight yourself. LOL.

Sorry to hear about the cysts. Best to have them removed isn't it?

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 08:41:08 UTC

hehe....she's my princess and her wishes are all my commands! ;p actually, i only lost 1 kg and could be due to all the bringing and fetching E to and from school + housework + compromised meals....

well, yesterday i was pretty upset when i learnt the cyst is back. but after talking to my sis, i realised that it's really better to remove it once and for all. i'm hoping it will shrink and disappear by itself though....

"fetching E to and from school + housework + compromised meals...." hehe...you mean balanced meal(leftover from E's balanced meal)???

joeiira_yoong April 7 2005, 22:45:09 UTC

I may have a part-time opening for you but really not sure yet cos plans are still very fluid. actually happened to call Anny yesterday and asked about you! Will call you if we really need someone, i.e. if you are still interested.

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 08:46:23 UTC

aww....thanks for thinking about me. i feel really guilty for not logging on more often. i miss those working days when i could log on to lj all day...now, whenever i turn on the puter, E will demand to play her teletubbies and whats nots! sigh....

call me if something's up...and thanks Tina! really appreciate your thots...:))

You dun look like Auntie lah, and E still so chubby what....
You take care hor. Have regular check-ups to make sure the cysts dun grow.

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 08:55:00 UTC

hehe....not yet anyway. it's very easy to slip into auntie mode becos, either i'm at home, near E's school, at the market or my mum hse..the good thing is, i see the SAHA almost everyday, so it's like a reminder to me...heh~

after my cyst encounters, i realised the importance of going for regular checkups, esp for married ladies with kids. u too must remember your pap smears and mammogram...oops! i haven't got my mammogram yet.....aiyaya~

cottontimer April 6 2005, 10:19:46 UTC

We should be getting pap smears every few years, but mammograms aren't recommended for women of average risk until they hit 40. I think you're safe for quite a few years....

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 20:07:33 UTC

maybe the gynaes in SG are more kiasu...i see my gynae yearly for pap smear and ultrasound. mammograms is after 40 though, but becos my sis removed a lump in her breast some years back and so, i got to be more vigilant...:((

rexkids April 6 2005, 08:17:54 UTC

E still has some baby fats and as cute :)
sorry to hear about hte cysts, if not pills do you need an op?
hope everything is well for you.

your dh's job seems like from heaven :) well at least it can pay for your sahm days :)

pls go for that facial and haircut...not saying that you look auntie, just thot you deserve that kind of break from looking E full time.

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 09:02:52 UTC

yes, if the bloody thing dun shrink by itself or after some BC pills, then i got to go for an operation to take it out for analysis (to check for carcinogents). i really hope i can avoid surgery altogether...:((

this is my dh's dream job!! he's been eyeing this job for the longest time and i'm really glad that he made it. i just hope he can hang on to this job for the next 20 years....:D

rexkids April 7 2005, 07:34:26 UTC

do you have this cyst prob often? hope you won't have surgery.
and you must hope that the management won't change for the next 20 years too :)
i am praying that my dh can have his dream job soon :)

joeiira_yoong April 7 2005, 22:55:42 UTC

this is the 2nd round and i hope the last. if these cysts are hormonal in nature, then it's likely to come again and again...sigh!

ya, i'm hoping that their company benefit is soooo good that none of the management team will move their butt! well, good luck for your dh's dream job. so got chance to be SAHM after that? ;))

I know what you mean about the SAHA.... I'm one myself too and am really hating it :(

cottontimer April 6 2005, 10:18:41 UTC

According to a shop owner in Singapore, I am one as well! :( But if you ask me, I will deny it!!!

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 20:18:52 UTC

i probably will fail the test too, considering my t-shirt, shorts, slippers, spectacles combo....;-) ah well!

joeiira_yoong April 6 2005, 20:15:46 UTC

no way~! how can you be a SAHA when you dun look it? ok, i describe the SAHA upstairs...she's got shoulder length frizzy permed hair, a pair of urm...1980s glasses, wears oversized T-shirts and shorts, and a pair of gold dangling earrings (shudders)....enuff said i think. u SAHA? not in another 10 years! ;p

i do think i lack the motivation to dress up better whenever i stepped out of the house. what for? nobody's looking what....sometimes, i see working women looking sharp and chic in their work clothes and i started to tell myself that i need to snap out of this 'casual mode' but then, sigh.....!
