today, went out to lunch with lan, ron and also feisal.........i've ordered mee hoon kung fu (yes, i'm now obsessed with things that are kung fu since watching kung fu panda.........watchaaaaaaaa)....... and whilst waiting for my order, i've got a phone call from mum stating that dad is going for a engioplasty.......and i was like, errrr.....what is that mum? she said that dad is having a blockage at one of his heart artery and the doctor said that dad needs to go for this ASAP...........
oh yeah, yesterday, dad went for a thorough checkup.........he decided to go for a thorough check up since 3 of my granduncles underwent a surgery all in one month....... at first, he said to himself that he is a golfer, a regular player of the game (almost every week he has a game) and that nothing is gonna happen.......but then he was wrong..........
when he went for a CT scan yesterday....... mum said that dad was shaking his legs left and right coz he is nervous bout it although he didn't showed it in his impression......but we all know that he is nervous.........u see, dad is the only person so far that i know that hasn't been admitted to the hospital yet coz apparently dad is so lucky that he has a healthy life although he is a smoker....... but then, i think this is dad's first time doing a full scan so he is very nervous bout it........so back to the story......when the doctor looked at the results, he noted that there were something blocking on dad's heart.........
so the doctor decided that dad should go for a endiogram (liquid that goes through your vein to see are there any blockage at ur artery)........upon arriving home yesterday, dad said that it was cold although mum said that the day was freaking hot that dad decided to ask to switch off the air cond.....hmmmmm..... i guess dad was so nervous that his mind was everywhere....poor dad...hhuhuhuhu............so at night, dad wants to go for a roti canai session....... we (myself, mum and dad) went for a roti canai session last nite for our supper and just have the quality time just the 3 of us.........
this morning, when dad was about to go for his endiogram, he asked the doctor whether he can be under sedative so that he will be knocked out when the endiogram is on the way....and the best part was, the doctor laughed saying that in medical history, no patient has ever ask whether they can be under sedative while endiogram is on its way.........hehehehehe......so dad is really nervous.......gotcha......hehehehe....... the doctor noted that there is one main artery that is blocked by the fats so he said that this could be resolved via endioplasty whereby they will put in a plastic tube in the vein and remove the fats so that the blood could flow as usual....
dad said that during the endioplasty procedure, he said that when the fibre optic wires are running through his veins, it is very ticklish as if someone is tickling u and u wanted to LOL but dunno how to stop it.........hehehehehe....just imagine rite, u r very ticklish and u wanted to do this endioplasty procedure......oh yeah, dad was wide awake when the procedure is on its way......it is a normal practice that a patient is awake when the procedure is on the way.........
the fibre optic is basically a camera to show the doctor and also dad could see it on the screen on whereabouts were the wire in his body.......dad said that he laughed and the doctor said please dun laugh........so u can imagine how torturey it was the procedure......on one hand u wanted to laugh becoz it is ticklish, on the hand u r not allowed to laugh....how much torture could one get rite.....hehehehehe......
so, when the wire had found its way to the blocked artery, the doctor then would put a plasic thingy on the initial part of the fibre optic and it squiggles it's way to the artery........and this is the second time that dad had to tahan of the torture of the procedure.......huhuhuhu......poor dad........
once the plastic thingy had made its way to the artery, the doctor will then pull out the wire and it will leave the plastic thingy in the heart artery to get rid of the fats and be a struture for the veins to hold........ and later the procedure was done and dad was being placed at the ICU........
when i've told my colleagues bout dad's story, their facial impression changed from happy to worry.......coz none of them cares to go for a thorough medical checkup........so u can imagine how worried they are......hahahahahaha.....
went home a bit early today and went straight to the hospital and dad told his experience to us.........we burst out laughing at the ICU and the nurse was like shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.............sorry nurse, it is just that the story is so funny and some more dad is cracking jokes saying that this is his most torture time in life yet coz spending time in the ICU with no TV to watch.........hehehehehe... dad, there is a reason why it is called the ICU...........well, dad is gonna be discharged tmrw and he needs bout 2 months of break..........
so the morale of the story is, let's all be healthy........
cheers peeps and pee pees....
