Heart Check

Hi Dear Ones! How are y'all today? Praying that everyone's in good state. I'm working from home today because I am scheduled for a 24 hour heart monitoring. Couple of weeks ago I was sent to Changi General Hospital @ 3 am due to heart palpitations. I woke up fluttering and I had difficulty in breathing so I decided to wake tito and tita up to accompany me at the emergency [hospital]. I've had an ECG 3 times and the results showed that there are some extra beats so the doctor referred me to a specialist for a series of laboratory tests. 3 weeks ago I've had my blood taken for a complete blood count,  magnesium, potassium, thyroid (??? - sorry, im not so familiar with medical terms x: ) level tests. The nurses (yes, I needed 2 nurses) had some troubles in taking blood from me because according to them my veins are so fine. I had to fill those 4 small blood bottles, imagine how my tiny little veins have been tortured! Kidding! :) The pain is tolerable, I just had to close my eyes so I wouldn't see those blood and injections.

Today I have electrodes stuck all over my chest. I was also told to record all my activities while wearing the gadget. I'll be returning it tomorrow, which is also my schedule for echocardiogram (test in which ultrasound is used to examine the heart).


But don't worry about me, I've got the best doctor in the whole wide world, who had shed His blood at the cross just to get me well. I can't fathom God's wisdom, but maybe He has to let this thing happen so I could learn, so my faith will be even more strengthened, so I could grow closer to Him -I'm not sure, but I know He always have His best plans for me, and I just got to trust Him =)

Matthew 8:17 - This happened so that what Isaiah the prophet said would be fulfilled: He is the one who took our illnesses and carried away our diseases.[a
