Another round of DCH and Mirena reinsertion

Today, I did another round of Dilatation and curettage, hysteroscopy(DCH) and change of Mirena.  This round is to check whether the endometrial hyperplasia without atypia, which had remission when the 2nd round of DCH is conducted, have return back or not.

Hopefully the result will come back as negative.  If it is positive, then I have to be optimistic and hope the doctors can advise the cure for it.

Before the ops, I went to Guangyin temple to pray. I tolong Guangyin to bless me the ops will be smooth with no complication and doctors can cure my illness if they found anything.

I like to think I am being blessed.

First public performance since the COVID-19 started

I had my first public performance yesterday since the COVID-19 started.  It has been more than 2 years since my last public performance.

Very worried and excited.

Worried because it has been so long since I perform in public and I am not sure whether my skills are still up to it and whether I will get stage fright during the concert.

Excited because I am going to perform in a world class concert hall, the Esplanade Concert Hall, top 5 concert hall in the world. Even though it is not the first time performing there, but I am still very excited to be able to perform in such a great concert hall.

Luckily everything went smoothly.  Didn't make much mistake during the actual performance and the whole orchestra did very well. 

Hopefully, as we open up slowly and return to a new normal, I will get more chances to perform to the public again.

Also looking forward to performing overseas again.

I am fully vaccinated!!!

 Finally, my TraceTogether app shows I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as of 16 Sept. 2 weeks after my 2nd dose of Pifzer BioNTech vaccine.

My first dose was taken on 9 July and I am supposed to go for the 2nd one 1 month later.  But I kena shingles just before my scheduled 2nd dose and I had to postpone it.  The shingles didn't recover fully, however the 2nd dose cannot be delay for too long, so I went and get my 2nd dose on 2 Sep.

Not sure whether the shingles was caused by the vaccine or because I am too stress up with work and my immune system went down.  

Doesn't matter now.  If it comes again, I just have to see doctor and tahan the pain.  Hopefully it won't come back.

Yeah, hopefully we can return to normal live few months down the road and not be too bother by the COVID-19.

I am okay ... :)

Last month I had a procedure to check on my uterus for hyperplasia without atypical cells after having IUD (Mirena) inserted for more than 9 months.  The result was reviewed yesterday during my follow up after the procedure.  

AND 

doctor says the cells are no longer found in my uterus... Hooray, the IUD helps and I am cleared from the hyperplasia without atypical cells.  Which means chances of me getting cancer because of this cells are minimise.  A new IUD was inserted during the procedure so that the atypical cells will not appear again.  Yeah..

BUT

I still have to monitor my condition and check for abnormal bleeding because the IUD may cause problem to my uterus or drop out.  I need to take care of my health even though I am cleared this time round. 

PAIN

My backache is still occurring and has now spread to the groin area.  It seems this is not because of the IUD or mensus cramps.  Seems like my nerves and spine is acting up again.  Lucky doctor says there is no issue doing massage or physio with the IUD inside.

Let's hope my backache will go away soon.

TOAST TO GOOD HEALTH

IUD insertion again!!!

Tomorrow I am going to check my uterus again for hyperplasia without atypical cells and see whether the IUD (Mirena) works for me or not.  After taking out samples from the uterus, a new IUD (Mirena) will be inserted and it is going to be in my uterus for 5 years.

Last June, I did the insertion of Mirena in the clinic and it was a painful process. I had problem relaxing and it makes the insertion painful. This time round, since I am going to under be GA (general anesthetic) for the procedure, might as put the IUD at the same time so I wounld not need to feel the pain.  But then I still need to endure the cramp before the procedure.  Haiz.. 

Let's hope everything will ok and I can recover well.

Still worrying about the cramp and pain.
