This past few weeks i’ve been kind of busy with both office/internal stuff and some on the side projects. My mind is just all over and i can’t seem to focus on where to start. But this past week was beyond me. Unlike other teams from our office, my team handles internal stuff and most of the projects that comes in, i project manage, therefore i do some project analysis and create, assign and distributes the task to my 3 man team (excluding the dev and imports).

So finally, my body gave in to stress… last monday night i started feeling the acid from my stomach moving up my throat, then the following morning im feeling nausea. Come tuesday, the feeling has gotten worse. I have no apetite, i just had half of the meal i used to eat for breakfast, banana and some crackers for lunch and water for dinner… and i vomited all of it.

Wednesday, same condition though i tried to eat coz im getting really dizzy.

Thursday, finally i got the courage to consult to a doctor, so along with my friend, jessette, we went to megaclinic. My findings?… well.. its a 3 word sickness in which “peptic” is the only word i could remember. This may eventually lead to ulcer. The Doctor said it was triggered by stress and my pre mens period on top of my not so good juice diet. The doctor adviced me to refrain from drinking coffee, soda, juices, even milk and just settle for water. Oh nooo… how can i survive, im like a vampire thirsty for blood (in my case-any flavored drink), no matter how many water i drink, i still feel thirsty. I was asked to take some medicine and she warned me that it was expensive. I said “ok” thinking that “expensive” meant “35 pesos” tops. But to my shock upon buying the mdicine from mercury drug, each tablet cost 84php and i need to drink a tablet a day for 14 days! That’s already the cost of a full meal and a meryenda added to my daily allowance. :((

It’s sooo expensive! Indeed “sa panahon ngayon, bawal magkasakit”.

So how am i holding up so far? I still get a little dizzy sometimes and get extremely sleepy every after meal. I hope this will heal soon. Coz its giving me a really hard time. 🙁

Think happy thoughts! para walang stress!
