Here's the report from the doctor on my ultra scan
Ultrasound Pelvis
The uterus is significantly enlarged measuring 18.8 X 10.8 x 7.8cm. There are at least 4 fairly well defined hypochoic masses present in the uterus. The largest in the fundus measures 7.9 x 7.6 x 6.6cm and is compatible with a fibriod. There are also 2 other fibroid seen in the posterior wall of the body of the uterus and they mesure 4.3cm and 3.7cm respectively. The 4th fibriod in the anterior wall measures 2.8cm.
Both ovaries are normal in size and echo pattern. No abnormal adnexal masses are detetced.
No fluid is noted in the Pouch of Douglas.
Comments
The uterus is significantly enlarged with multiple fibroids.
Princess Chris asked so what do you want me to pray for? Is it to ask God to remove the fabroids so that I no need to go operations or to pray for grace to go thru it? I told her why don't you pray for all, to cover all ground. But she relied but my faith will be confused and God will be confused because He don't know what you want. So I shall exercise great faith and ask for total healing. That God will remove it so that the growth will disappear by the time I go for appointment with the gyne and need not go for any operation as suggested by the doctor. Pray that the pain will not return to haunt me and pray for complete healing.
Though I know that it's not a serious thing and that fibroids are pretty common in women, it's still a nagging concern weighing upon my heart. So pray that I will not get too anxious or worried as I can leave all things to my healer, my Lord.
Woke up with bad cramps, so called in to take MC. Feelng better now and shall just stay home to rest. Been feeling very busy, still rushing to complete the 40 days video but it will be over very soon...less than one more week to go. Alexis will be most happy too :) But proud of him for his initative to learn more softwares to improve on the videos, the skills and the techniques. Less grouchy doing the videos this time round too. *applause applause*

Today the doctor from the clinic called and told me the results from the ultra-scan. It turns out that I had fibroid and according to the doctor I had a lot of fibroid! She said it in such a non-chalent way.. how empathetic. Anyway she said that she'll be referring me to a gyne in KK.
Well the good thing is, the pain has ceased since Saturday. And I do believe that it's the answered prayer at cell on Thursday. Thanks you all for praying for me. I have to admit that it's still scary. Hearing the way the doctor described it, it's a lot of fibriods! So not comforting.
For those of you who are clueless on what fibroid is, fibroids are tumors consisting of smooth muscle cells and fibrous connective tissue growing within the walls of the uterus. These tumors, also sometimes referred to as uterine myomas, are usually benign. They are common in women approaching menopause. (Hence the doc was initially skeptical that I had it) Fibroids may be as small as a pea or grow to more than eight inches in diameter.(Yes trust me it can be huge. My mom had them and apparently, she had it when she was expectng me and the doc thought she had twins!) Not sure if an operation is needed to remove them. But at least it doesn't hurt now. To trust that my stupid sister said this to me before my check up, " ..take comfort that you're actually not that fat coz that things actually weighs a lot!".. Thanks!

The gift of the written word
Got this in my email from Dayspring. And instead of a journal to record those moments, I know I have my faithful blog :)
How important is it to write out our thoughts and feelings? I’m so glad God decided to put His thoughts and feelings into the written word! I love to know that He thinks about us constantly and carries us in the palm of His hand. I’m thrilled to learn about His character and read about the experiences others have had in His presence. Words have power—and we have the privilege of preserving them in our journals every day.
When we take time to record memories, journal our prayers, and write down our thoughts, we truly give ourselves a gift to be opened over and over again. We can recall times of laughter, be encouraged by God’s faithfulness in difficult situations, and feel a sense of comfort by expressing and managing the emotions He’s given to us. It feels good to revisit the joys and even the struggles in our lives, because God is working in us and building our trust through every circumstance. We never outgrow His gentle and wise instruction. We never graduate from the learning process.
As another school year begins, we might all use it as a little nudge to begin an ‘essay’ on the days God gives us on earth. No due dates, no grading scales, simply an opportunity to appreciate the gift of the written word—and a chance to allow God to encourage our hearts and remind us of His unconditional love and continued faithfulness. Our journals can become one of our favorite reads…and perhaps one of our greatest teachers.
The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever.
ISAIAH 40:8 NIV

Goodbye everyone
Yesterday was farewell to 3 of my colleagues in my team. This is like the upteen time that I have colleagues leaving not just the company but the team. Boy I miss those who have left. And it was so odd coz the day before I had a dream that my ex-colleagues were back in the office and I was back where I used to sit. Miss having them around and miss sitting where I used to.
Everything is just so different now. Now I feel like a thorn among the roses... Feel so lonely with no lunch kaki, no one to gossip to, just chat and complain. Feel so left out at work, not enjoying myself.

Lazy Susan on a Saturday
Boy it feels so good to wake up at 11am on a Saturday morning...yes just an hour more before it's noon. And I'm sure looking forward when the 5 days work week will be announced on Monday when I get back to work. It's this very liberating feeling to have at least one day when i can sleep in as long as I want. Only word to describe it, Shiok!
So I did a couple of things that I don't usually have the luxery of doing on a Saturday morning. Read the papers while enjoyed the toasted kaya toast, thanks to Joy and her bf, watched the High Life, Lisa Ang in Australia (I wanna go too!), listen to the sermon which I bought at the Hillsongs conference, packed my room and cleared the dust off my stuffs on the table and now here I am at just 15 mins before 1 and happily blogging away.
Just some thoughts after listening to Chris Caine's sermon, on Activate Your Potential. Basically that a lot of people, myself included pray for God to give them more, more talent, promotions, bigger tasks.. but we overlook the fact that God can only give as much as we can contain. And she likens that to a cup that can only receive that much amount of water no matter how "thirsty" it is. So what this means? Time for expansion, be a jug, be a barrel. That before we can ask for God to fill us, we should expand our capacity so that we can receive more from Him. And also learning to be stewards of what God gives to us. After all if we abuse, misuse and didn't prove that we can handle the little that God has given to us, how can he entrust us with more... I need to pray for enlargement, expansion and wisdom to be a good steward of what he has already given me.

Keeping a Diary, Think again...
Read this in yesterday's papers in the Tech & Science Segment
Talking about a problem is supposed t help one get over it, but apparently writing it does the very opposite. Psychologist have found that keeping a diary is bad for your health (Gasp!), the New Scientist weekly reported. Diarists were more likely than non-diarists to be plaugues by headaches, sleeplessness, digestive problems and social awkwardness.. Hmm better stop that "Dear Diary" habit...
This is very very interesting because it seems to me that people who keep a diary or blog are people who are usually more expressive people so how does that explain the "social awkwardness" syndrome? Just an interesting to read to share with all

I need a break and on a break I shall go.
Took leave for tomorrow. No special plans. Just a day out with Alexis to WWW, Wild Wow Wet. I need a day out of the office, away from the ringing telephones and jammed up mailboxes. My life feels like it's sagnating.
Scary thought,Dreaded thought
Feel like I'm being encircled into the routine of the blah blah life. It's not that I hate my life, just that it's become a routine. Something's not right. I need somethihg more than this.

He will use what you have
This week has been a trying and busy week. Juggling with work, life, rest. As much as I try to put a smile to my face in the morning when I go to work, it somehow ends up in an inverted smile by the end of the day. Feel so drained at work and stressed. Gosh I just hope my boss is not so picky and makes up her mind. Whenever she changes her mind, it send me in a flutter. Women bosses... Ha and why should I grumble since I'm a woman. Well as much as I'll like to agree that the changes does make things look better, still it waste precious time.
Had very little time to rest and reflect but today's cell was good. Have to admit that I was not in a "leading cell group" feeling. Even had a bout of stomachache before I went, but it really made a difference. And for once, I felt satisfied knowing that God used that little that I have to offer him and I know that he is pleased. Seeing the girls being faithful and coming for cell makes it worth the while.. It really is. What better reward than to see lives changed in His image and in His likeness.
Finally the weekends tomorrow. Glorious weekends.

Darn,hate it, just lost what I type...
*grumble, mumble, mumble*
Feeling tired at work, I feel like I need a break. And that's exactly what I'm doing next week when I take one day off. Just one day and that'll be good enough.
Well heard a piece of news that perked me up a little at work, the company is finally bowing down to the pressures and will be announcing a 5 days work week soon. Yippee!! But hopefully they will not make us come in earlier, after all most people work past 6 so why not end work later right? Yes only sensible thing to do, so pray that they have some common sense and so the most sensible and obvious thing. I can't imagine going in to work any earlier than 9am!
Okay, gotta go prepare for cell tomorrow now.
Have you had a purposeful week? I hope mine ends more purposeful by the end of the week...
