i often have this feeling like a muscle cramp around my mid-back and front...
around the bottom of the rib cage area...
it was quite painful that you can hardly move for a few minutes...
sometimes it was the feeling like the heart was being squeeze...
at other occasion, the left arm felt like numb...
all pointing to a possibility of a heart problem...
then i went to a heart specialist...
did some test...
there was no blockage whatsoever but the heart was a bit weak...
after the blood test, it was found out that my hemoglobin count is very low at 9.5 g/dl (normal count for male is 13.0 - 18.0, female 11.5 - 16.0)...
this can lead to insufficient blood supply throughout the body including the heart itself and the brain...
if it is the brain, then you may feel light headed or headache...
to the rest of the body, it is tiredness...
the possible cause... i always bleed whenever i ate hot/'pedas' food... and it has been going on for so many years...
since there was no pain, i never bother the get it checked... until now...
so... you guys/gals out there... dont make easy of any irregularities abt your body...
now im on medication until end of dec... then will re-evaluate...
test & diagnostic 500++... medication 600++...:)):))
 
soooo... how was it? any luck finding your new home??:D
a studio or an apartment??
talking abt that, i remembered my friend during college time...
he was the only msian guy at that univ, so cant share house with the other 3 girls... so he rented a single room apartment (or a studio)... its abt 20' x 12'... there was a bathroom and the rest of the space was a bedroom/livingroom/dining/kitchen...:)) didnt even hv a furniture... not even a bed... all he got was a sleeping bag... to cook was another problem... to fry anything, the whole space would get the smell or the oil residue... alhamdulillah, he's now working with petronas and dont hv to put up with that kind of life anymore...

have you watch this documentary 'the fact about fat'?
it says that it is not fatty food that make us fat...
it is the high carbo/sugary food that caused it...
excess carbo/sugar from our energy requirement will be converted into fat and stored... whereas excess fats that we consume will be discharged and not restored...
of course fatty food may contribute to bad cholesterol level, but that can be controlled if we take oat regularly...
sooo... the best way to control is to 'reduce' carbo intake and replace them with vege and protein...

just came back from a week of training... luckily it was out of town training... block off all incoming calls except for one or two numbers... early dec will take another 10 days but dont feel like going anywhere although that groupon package seems like so tempting...

im still looking at some areas. trying to choose between ampang/cheras/Seri Kembangan/Puchong. i even considered going back to JB or moving to Penang but everyone said thats too far. #:-S i dont mind a studio or a normal apartment, but i've some criterias. haha.

yeah, i read something abt fat n sugar. i did think of doing Atkins but i miss bread too much. :(( im a bread person. also, milk & cheese. i eat these 3 items daily. haha so Atkins not really for me. I cant imagine the 2weeks induction period, 20g of carbs daily. ~X( but those doing it lost weight. so maybe i shud try it but i will need my daily bread for breakfast. :))

what a pity... even in homeland, its a headache to look for a decent place to stay...
dont know for what reason, we let our places infested...
if it is for the oil wells, why do we still pay high taxes...
good intention but not well distributed...
thats why i love this land soooo much...:))

unfortunately i am not...
thats why i was suspecting a high cholesterol that wud create blockage in the arteries to the heart...
but from the test done, there was no blockage...
and from the blood test, my cholesterol level were both good...
LDL = 2.10 mmol/L (< 2.60)
HDL = 1.95 mmol/L (> 1.71)
ratio = 2.2 (<5)

but the heart pumping was rather weak...
low hemoglobin (~9.5) may suggest low oxygen supply as hemoglobin is the oxygen carrier in the blood...
low supply could induce a similar symptom as no supply (blockage)...
and if the count goes below 9.0, a blood transfusion will be required...
fortunately, went for another blood test yesterday... the count has increase to 10.4... still low, but improving...
hv an appointment for colonoscopy next week to identify the bleeding...

p/s: Low hemoglobin count is also known as anemia... can read it here...

500 - 600??? yes... thats the cost that hv been paid... another 160 yesterday... dont know how much for next week...#:-S
now im thinking of a medic card/insurance... that would help in this situation... especially if you need warded...
