Got back from Kl and got myself into an uncomfortable situation. On the eve of my trip to Lang Tengah my parents decided to finally get the lump on my neck check and make an appointment. After three check up and opinions from ENTs, i did my final check up and to get a final opinion before we decide on operation at Ipoh Specialist Centre. The doctor, an elder man started the routine check up, again i had the tube thingy put up my nose into my throat!! Ugh!! hate it!!!
He said he felt two lumps!!! And they are kinda deep inside and its near my facial nerve. He said just as a warning and precaution that IF the doctor injure the nerve my whole right side of my face will droop and i will have no control over it. eek!!! Said he himself do not dare carry out the operation and will refer me to someone else more professional...whoa that scared my parents enough. Then we went to our GP which I have been seeing since i was a baby to ask for advice and to recommend any surgeons or ENT specialist. He referred me to a surgeon name DR.Manu so that's where we went right after.
I was then tired of having people touching the lump and worried of the outcome. DR.Manu turns out to be a very friendly and professional looking man. He took it so lightly saying that this case is common and he sees it very often. He did countless operations like mine. Said that the lump is just at the surface and about the facial nerve thingy it is far from that and that the previous doctor mentioned it just as a precaution against legal lawsuits if anything happen. The lump is not malignant nor cancerous but they will still send it for biopsy to do further checkup. *Big sigh of relief* thank god!!
Haha i cant really remember the medical terms for the possible case for the lump but i remember something to do with either the lymph nodes or the parotid glen which is actually the salivary glen? haha i dunno le but it is not serious and that's all that matter. My operation is schedule on Monday 4Th June 2007!! I'm just so nervous. First time going to the hospital and doing such surgery that needs GA...eek!! Pray that everything will be fine!!
Well on a much lighter note, I'm headed off to Lang Tengah in approximately one more hour hehe...driving there with family. I might have to help drive too coz it is for 6 hours!! Another birthday celebrated in another state or country! haha I cant seem to celebrate with friends on my birthday...Oh well at least I'm lucky to be somewhere on a holiday also to celebrate my birthday and this year it would be Lang Tengah!! Hope everything goes well and it would be enjoyable!!
So i did my duty and updated this blog!! Hehe!! well I'm off to Lang Tengah!! Till next time!!
~Cheers~
