ouchie ouchie chee chee, sway sway, lol lol???
a mixed feeling clouded on to me
should i or should i not
a tinge of exasperation overcome me
forget it, i have came this far (actual not that far lah, still within JW) to do this
so lets' proceed...
but all this will not materialise w/o my local translator sidekick, Ms SJ
she stayed with me, sharing mentally my anguishing and 'wanna pee in my pants' moments
whenever the physician exerted force (superbly strong, firm and compressible) onto veins
i clenched my fist so hard till i burst out laughing
SJ called me crazy and labelled me to be a weirdo for laughing hard while in excruciating pain
laughter has always been the BEST medicine as I always say
and the pain does not go away albeit me keep thinking and reassuring myself that if i can go through labour without any epidural or event jabs, why can't i just tahan this...
but the best part has yet to come... i always want to go for acupuncture whenever I watch its documentary on Discovery Channel... seemingly interesting and exciting
will there be pain? or would the needle would just penetrate through my flesh and into my blood flow? and importantly, does it really work?
yeap, u guess right and for that, u won urself a 1 day stay at JW...
today, i had my virgin session with mr needle, oops not only 1 mr needle but 2
hearing it from SJ, it is not that bad still cause Mr Ray had 6 and after 2nd visit, it is still 6
so mine is not that bad afterall...
an intricate skills i can say. of how the physician (btw, it was Physician Wang Si) slowly place the needle onto my vein. the tricky part would be finding the vein, knowing me it is hidden beneath layers and layers of fat.. hahaha (poor him). apparently, there were 2 points that he has to identify, first was at the ankle and next was right below my knee. So there, i was left with 2 needles on the acute point with hot rays of heat shine on my ankle... it was super hot but pleasurely nice... (i think i am going nuts)
and it does not stop there, after the acute(-pain) session
he still has to rub and massage... i was dumbfounded, think SJ managed to seize my 'panic' look
brave it once again, inching and swaying my butt just to withstand the pain... lol
SJ, u should tape it and post it to youtube... haha
overall, it was a 'pleasant' and 'eye-opening' experience
though it was only 2 needles and not more
i am glad that I have:
- Went through the session without peeing in my pants (it does help to relieve it)
- and i did not even fart of garlic smell after the heavy lunch at Zingdo (yes, Janice, i did not fart afterall... ha ha)
- lastly, i went home with a bandaged... so happy (i always want to be bandaged... call me a freak, a weirdo or nuts but i always want to have the sense of feeling bandaged... haha. it has been a lifetime desire.... lol)
too bad, i am CAMERA-LESS
Nashky,i think it is high time for us to OWE 1 rite?
if there's an award for the best translator, I would write in for SJ
without her, i would not experience my virgin trip to the MA KUANG TMC
SJ, u are binded with me, frm now on, u need to always be my translator for each visit to MK TMC... thankiu thankiu lao ban niang...
p.s it is not that i dun understand chinese but my accent still has yet to reach the PRC standard
