Medical Appointment

Accompanied mum to Changi General Hospital for her medical appointment, she has been experiencing tummy pain these days & doctors suggested that she should do a scan.

The specialist at CGH was unable to diagnose what has caused the pain, hence suggested to do a CT scan & scope in order to find out what was wrong.

Mum will have to fast for 6 hours for the scan & has to get ready (by drinking 2 litres of fluid) 2 hours before the scan. As for the endoscopy, Mum will not be able to have solid food the day before the scope & she can only take water after 3pm. Worst of all, the scan & scope were carried out on different days, it is kind of heartache to hear these & she told me she will endure these in order to facilitate the scanning & endoscopy.

Jiayou jiayou!!!

the endoscopy is rather an uncomfortable test. My dad and dh took it before. the fasting is still not bad as the drinking fluid. i hope yr mum's result is ok.

Yalor, quite worried for her. She just ask me "dunno is it painful" this morning.
