Birthday month!

So last tuesday was my birthday.

The previous weekend, I had replacement class for Public Health and spent the rest of the day amending tables/research results. Finished the whole thing in 5hours solid. Then I thought I would wanna go straight to bed but Syamim ajak to have coffee at Coffee Beans nearby Gurney. Then coincidently we bumped into 4 colleagues who were also lepaking but in Starbucks. Then since I haven't been socialising that much we decided to stay for a bit-until 1am actually. LOL

Then on Sunday there was a Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign and I participated in the Walkathon. It was pretty fun and the weather wasn't scorching hot. I zumba-ed and took pictures with the surgeons and in the end had blisters all over my heels. 

Monday came by so fast! Now I'm in a new rotation-Medicine but the departments I'm in are Nephrology, Infectious Disease/Rheumatology/Gastroenterologyand Neurology. The other big three departments will be during my final year. 

Tuesday, D-day I turned 23! The night before I slept super early so I wasn't aware of who actually wished me. In the morning I went to the Nephro ward and clerked one patient before going for my eye appoinment. Waited for atleast an hour before I could get my number and another half an hour before the doctor called my name. The IOP is still quite high but has reduced since last month. Previously was 25 and today was 18. The normal pressure would be below 10 if I'm not mistaken. The doctor checked my angle glaucoma but I didn't get to aswhether it's a closed or open angle glaucoma. She asked me to continue taking the eyedrops and come in on April next year to check if my visual field is reducing. 

In the evening, I stayed in the ward and just read the case reports. I didn't get to see Dr Fred anywhere. 😞 For dinner, we went to Sushi Tei! 

There was a new trainee and he's cute! 

On Friday I went to see my Ortho doctor and she told me it might be a meniscus problem. I aske her if I might be having connective tissue disease (look up on it if you want to know further!) and she asked me what other symptoms do I have. I told her about my glaucoma, sinusitis, my throbbing headache and also my joints problem. She ordered blood investigations but I can't do them yet because I'm heading off to Taiping next week. 

Well, I am heading there now as I'm typing this post. 

PS: why didn't I get any wish from you? Who said 'let's be friends!' 😌
