I’m not sure how I should start my blog.

You see, back in 2012, I had this knock at the tip of my spine because I accidentally hit the sharp edge of a table. I was rushed to the hospital by my colleagues. I got pain relief injection before they took me for X-ray scan. They discharged me after four hours waiting for my BP to be normal (I was way too low at first). But they didn’t mention a thing about my injury other than subscribing strips of painkiller to me. When I asked them about it, they said it is just a normal swelling, that’s all.

So, now when I started doing sit-up again after so many years (I normally do Zumba and jogging) as I’m getting chubbier and chubbier than before (rounder and rounder like a ball), I thought doing sit-up is the best way to get back into shape. But I didn’t know that I’ll ever experience that kind of pain when I’m working out. The moment I did it, the pain was unbearable.

I may hate doctors or clinics or hospitals, but I have no choice. And to my horror, the doctor told me that it was because I didn’t get my injury treated back then, that’s why now I’m having this discomfort. I was like, WHAT THE *! Hey, why no one tell me about how serious the knock was and the effect of not treating it? Why only now I know when it’s already too late to be cured.

Well, I get no answer for all my WHYs. All I know is that I’m warned not to ever do sit-up again in order to prevent myself for getting something more serious than this. Still I’m grateful that my friend, who used to be a personal trainer is here with me and she suggested that I try out plank instead as both sit-up and plank have the same effect. Yea, that’s my only choice for now.

If that’s not bad enough, I’ve another bad news too.

I’ve Vertigo. Vertigo is a sensation of feeling off balance. It is either you or your surrounding is spinning.

For the past few days, I’ve been experiencing things around me spinning the moment I sit down at my workstation. I mean I do feel like this before, but mostly when I lay down on my bed before I fall asleep. But this time is different, it’s during the day.

The very same friend of mine took me to have a check with ENT. And he said, ‘It’s Vertigo.’ Once again I was like ‘WHAT?!?’ Seriously I’ve never imagine within days I get so many bad news. Vertigo can be hereditary or due to inner ear infection. And I have it before of my genes. But thank god that I don’t need any medication as it’ll go away itself. The only thing is that I can’t stress myself out. So, yea, let’s stay cool and relax. Hopefully I won’t experience it again.

With only eleven days of 2017 and I already got two BAD news welcoming me, I do really pray and hope, I’ll get healthy again.
