gastroscopy

How it goes.

Past three years, I’ve been through gastroscopy in order to find out the inner part of my stomach. a year after the procedure I’ve been told by the specialist that there’s redness around my stomach from what they’ve seen through the scope.

I’ve been treated as GERD patient and the drugs, proton pump inhibitor. I didn’t take it as well as advised. Until I’ve been change to ganathon 50mg three times a day. Those completely mess with me as well, haha. The last drugs that I depend on. The doctor said that I have to continuously taking it daily, like seriously. And so I still wanna feeling like healthy person, so I don’t take it until now I got the last warn from them, the medist. I got myself laugh.

And the follow up this month, I have to make sure that I take it regularly before the doctor blow up, haha.

If the drugs doesn’t make any sense, they gonna run second gastroscopy soon. And sincerely, that will kill me man. Let’s take a look what my first scope are like..

Actually, I’ve been writing this year ago in my past post.

It was nothing, but annoying little operation. I’ve been told that there’s no harm in the procedure. Yeah, as well as I knew. But to be honest, it scared me a lil bit.

As I was lying on the bed. They, the doctor and nurses surround me was horribly made me uneasy. I’ve been injected with sleeping drugs, but I am still half awake.

And they put transparent oxygenated tube through my nose and the pulse oximeter on my right hand as usual.

She said ‘as you are asthma we put this to prevent the lack of oxygen for you’ and I felt tickles in my noses. Am not breathing well, tho. The doctors made my pulse oximeter works even better. Duh, I’m nervous. I believe that they gonna think that I’m nervous due to my rapid pulse, but it’s not. It’s infected.

I can’t even barely breathe as the doctor came towards me and I was half awake, my eyes are no longer wide opened. I am sleepy but urge to open my eyes.

The doctor put the long tube in my mouth and I felt that the tube find it way through my stomach. Name it, it’s uncomfort, it’s uneasy and so on.

Apparently my right hand was hurt about the injection and the pulse oximeter wire that mess with the needle in my hand.

I felt like vomit. Then I pushed the doctor’s arm away. The nurses hold almost all part of my body. My legs, my hand and my shoulder. My painful right hand pulled the doctor’s cloth and then the nurses said ‘syahirah, jangan tarik baju doctor nanti tertanggal, tahan sikit ya’

And I was like, I don’t care nurses, doctor please stop. But they didn’t hear me cause I can’t talk. My mouth filled with so much tube as I was conscious.

Then during the cloth’s pulling session, I was finally really sleepy and after the procedure done I slept in the ward for hours.

There’s no harm but it get my claustrophobia active. That’s why I scared of scope things.

But the best thing about my story is I was conscious that I gonna have to do laparoscopy sooner or later, Haha. there’s no other way out I can go. I am never willing to see the doctor anyway although the medist suggested to. But last month I did, for the sake of myself, maybe? Haha

 he was the one who find it a way for me to go to the specialist. And so I went. That’s the things then. I am waiting for my future scope again.

Apparently, pain demands to be felt.

For those who has been diagnosed, it was always better to have your prescribed drugs as advised unless you are me. Haha

That’s all about gastroscopy. I am looking forward for anxiety in the next post.

That’s all.
