There's a lot of ups and down in life and life is really unpredictable. In Mar 2008, i was diagnose with a tumour in my left neck. Bumpy and with a mass with no pains..... which was what they called a carotid body tumour very rare illness in spore. Cause it's happening to ppl who stays in high altitude like mountains, which is lack of oxygen.. would i say i have lack in oxygen??
The i went down to west side of spore's hospitals to have a check up, did all the blood test, CT scans(expensive), Ultrasound scan.
On 25 may 2008, i had a angiogram to check the location of the tumour. which the dr. need to be sure of b4 doing the resection of body tumour(neck) and grafting of the veins to act as a supply for the missing big blood vein. (*cry*) so many operation to do...
On 13 June 2008, had a major operation at the west side spore's hospital. About 10 hours, cost me a bomb, SDG $17K. luckily i was covered under my ex-company's insurance and oso my own insurance. Although i didn't have to pay a single cents,you still need to pay for the pre-operation reviewing fees and post-operations follow ups, Taxi fares Etc...
