had a very bad gastric pain last night. i woke up from at around 1900 and decided to join mom for dinner. ok. totally my fault. being a glutton i wallop the sambal prawn (spicy level ****) and some cili padi with the yummy pai kuat wong. bad move. felt so warm in my tummy and i tot heck, it's the chili kicking in. after dinner, whoa i started to have unbearable tummy ache. it's like my normal indigestion discomfort x100. so i tot, lie down would be better... nooOOooo it
became worse. i was contemplating popping some gastric pills i have but those was around for long long time... so decided to pay the dr. a visit. went to my usual klinik segara but the usual doctors were not around. but this doctor which looked and sounded like a middle eastern doctor did a thorough check poking my tummy all over. said my upper abdomen was tender and loads of air. i was baffled when he asked me whether i had malaria before?!! he later explained my spleen is swollen or bigger 2 fingers compared to normal size. erm. bad news? he said nothing to worry about. some blood tests and ultrasound scan can diagnose the issue. so advise me to go back a few days later. should i? i mean nothing to worry about right?after taking my med from the counter, mom was outside buying some cakes from a van. i went over and bought 2 yummy cakes as well. hehehe. i felt a bit better after the dr. poking my tummy - i let out some air (burped... or i think they were burps la... and of course farted too). felt even better after taking the medicines. but in the middle of night or morning rather, the gastric attack came again. had to take the medicine but they didn't acted as fast as the first time so had really difficult time sleeping. but luckily i did managed to lulled into deep sleep. aaa.read up on enlarged/swollen spleen. erm. maybe it's just FAT spleen.symptoms of splenomegaly include:
Inability to eat a large meal - erm. not true as i can eat a lot.
Pain on the upper left side of the abdomen - erm. yes quite frequently
Pain may spread to the left shoulder - erm. yes... but i thought it is my long hours in front of lappie in wrong posture.
Hiccups - sometimes....
although nothing to worry but i guess i better go for follow up checks with doctor.
