2012 is indeed the end of the world

It has been a long year.

And these (but not limited to) was what happened to Yours Truly:
(mid 2012 till now)
  • Disseminated Penicilliosis (means fungal infection)
  • Atypical Mycobacterium Lung Infection
  • Haemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (something to do with unstable blood counts)
  • Chronic Kidney Disease secondary to immunosuppressant post Bone Marrow Transplant
  • Dilated Cardiomyopathy (a weak heart)
Was admitted to UMMC hospital for about 5 months. Was treated with community-acquired pneumonia and atypical mycobacterium lung infection. Cured but still on medication for the said diagnosis until immunity stack counts above healthy level. Probably another 3-6 months to go.

SO much better now. I'm off work, off gym, off Japanese class, off everything d. An excuse for a long holiday? Hmmm... maybe? It'll probably take me another 6-9 months to recover before I get back to where I was before. But having said that, I am feeling much stronger now.

Only thing bothering me now is my red blood cells which are at the anaemia state. Not sure what may have caused the low blood count. Did all sorts of scope (btw I HATE OGDS - go google it yourself) - no issues, no bleeding anywhere, no ulcers.

So what went wrong? No idea. Hope it gets better by time.

Anyway what am I up to these days?

SLEEP / EAT / DIABLO 3 / TV / SWIMMING

A lot has changed. Not just my health, but surroundings too. Me and moi family has moved to a new place. Saying bye-bye to the house I've lived for 32 years ... wasn't really that hard. No, not because I don't feel mm-seh-dak but because I understand the necessity for a change. Furthermore, like what I told my mom, a house being a shelter is like an expensive shirt/dress. When the time comes and you know it has to go, IT HAS TO GO. Sad of course but it's really not the end of the world you know? And then comes the part where my bro is finally thinking of settling in. Getting married, that is. Finding hotels, looking for the best price, good food. All sort of stuffs. And then comes renovating our new home yada yada...

And there you have, a quick update of my miserable (why me again?) life. I'm totally sick of it. I'm okay, I'm fine, I'm still my own self, but totally unamused.

Ciao~
