I feel like I had this sore in my stomach. I suspect this was because I’ve been prescribing myself a dozen of coca cola’s (Duke convinced me that) and good eating food made from the microwave (as Consuela suggested they are still ‘eatable’). Do you think it’s the glutinous rice dimsum that I’d been eating the past few days or the number of days I stayed online promoting my site in BE? Don’t get me wrong, I do have quantity of food in my fridge that I gobble three times a day. It’s just that I think I’m dealing with the not-so-healthy food lately. Do you call dimsum unhealthy? Am I suffering from ulcer?
I usually have meals on time but since I started my holiday last week, I’ve become increasingly not feeling like eating when I’m online. Not that I’m sick with the food I grab from the fridge (and I’m pretty much encouraged to have a stock of some Chicharons on sight).
It’s just so lovely. I mean, it has no smell, so clean and the flavor is just there. I didn’t even believe they have a version of our famous “chicharon”. - Yuri.
I believe the pains was caused by some bacteria found in frozen dimsum cooked from a microwave. Sometimes there’s a sudden pain that doesn’t easily go away. I would normally drink fresh milk in two glugs, then it helps me heal in few hours time. When I also eat more, it stopped for a while like I’m feeling brave again in going back to the habit of smoking. Besides, having a coffee is keeping me wake like a son of a gun. I’m killing myself, really.
Eversince I started taking my medicine from USANA, it feels great. I usually take 6 ‘letters’ of vitamins (like A, B or C or the garlic and minerals) during the day and before bedtime. It went great. I stopped taking them just because I was having this poor symptom of stress & worriness, I’d thought the tummy pain is just one of the mild symptoms when you’re eating enough Thai rice along with itlog-na-maalat (red-color eggs?) or a side dish mix in shrimp paste and a super fresh tomatoes (or tomato?).
Does stress causes these symptoms? Does it matter if I drink cokes in can, really coke is addicting, but avoid eating food on a five minute microwave run? I just thought Chinese dimsum is one of the food I can’t easily quit but maybe they’re making me crave in the middle of the night then vomit helplessly that looks like a coffee grounds while I smell a stinky urine of my fooking cat in the bathroom at the same time?
I need help. See a doctor? Buy Aspirin and totally quit my smoking? Or quit blogging? I would hope I will get a nice pampering and not worrying about money because that makes me want to puke again everytime I see the bills in a snoopy clip magnets in my fridge telling me “PAY ME NOW or YOU WILL SUFFER the CONSEQUENCES”. I mean I survived with my underwear washing and now I’m in pain.
Life is not normal for me - it doesn’t goes as easy as Damien Rice, while at the same time going on and off my wp.com Dashboard trying to fix my wordpress admin panel can be very irritating. Somehow I have accidentally changed my Admin to a “Subscribe” button where it won’t allow to post this entry since afternoon. I’ve missed my Sunday mass because of this. However, nice people from the wp.com has altered my suffering from signing-in and forum support was a lot of help to solve this problem.
So now as I write this, I don’t feel the pain in my stomach anymore. Weird? In many cases, when your blog account has a problem, issues about server maintenance can be fixed easily in minutes if you really talk to the right person. So kudos to Podz for helping me in getting back with my love of blogging.
Apparently, taking medicine for my bleeding stomach can heal me in few minutes, but if it keeps coming back, I may need a surgery, right? Scared now? Sure, I am. This may not sound a nice warming post but I just thought I’d share them with people who loves reading me and continue praying for me (yes, you my dear blog friends).
I wish I’d win the lottery now so I can treat you all some dimsum made instantly from the microwave. I mean someone has been telling me How To Order a Mabou Tofu Rice. You can found these food in a local Chinese restaurant that is so palatable to the tongue. Sometimes cooking looks so easy by just reading Jamie Oliver’s crispy salmon recipes that I’ve been craving all week, but simple things such as taking medicine, obligatory or not, can be very difficult to follow.
Since the humidty really sucks and it’s not even as its worse yet, I love the rain today, for the very first time. I’m literally saving some electricity for my TV than turning my aircon on.

you are also suffering from a stomachache? lol! same for me as well
I think it’s not just an ordinary stomach ache, i think it’s the ulcer, or my diabetes, or maybe I’m suffering with cancer, with diarrhea, gonorrhea and other CD’s. Hahaha. I hope I’ll be ok soon, and hope you too.
hey k! will cook for u soon so u would stop eating those mw food. those are very unhealthy… i dont even buy those, i mean i REFRAIN from buying them except in case of emergency. re the chicharon, sori to say but u wont be having mine… hahahahahah miss u k. get well soon! *blows kisses*
No cooking please. Take me out to a japanese restaurant. I’m craving with udon’s or the Max’s restaurant but not to Jollibee. The last time I ate their palabok, I suffered from a major cramps all day in bed like a whore having a labor.
Amuy suka ka na sa chicharon ah?
Sheesh… that’s bad. Isit wind trapped inside or something like that? If it is stomach upset or something, why don’t you try carbon? You know, the black tablet? I don’t think it’s serious, yes?
You take care. The usual, rest and find some chinese oil to rub on your tummy.. it might help.
Worst comes to worst, you gotta consult the doc…
Hope you aching stops soon.
It happens once in a while Asha. I probably need some sweets. But I’m diabetic, that would be bad too. I need evians, too much coffee. Thanks for the kind words.
Ok, nature’s calling. This is BIG!
hehehhe! K, send me a 66 x 70 picture or a link to it so I can use it on you avatar on my blog
I was just messing up with you Charles, that old glossy one you had should be alright. No pressure.
K! I’m such a bad influence on you with those cokes—lol
I recently had some stomach cramps as well last Sunday. I ate some scrambled eggs, bread, nutella, chocolate cakes, 4 glasses of white wine then I capped it off with a pint of beer. Such an unhealthy way of life. And to think it was Sunday when I did this.
You don’t need to win the lotto to treat us! I for one is a cheap date.
konting harkaw lang and suckling pig with rice ayos na!
~~one plastic of chicaron please.~~
I think the bacteria spreads like an old kind of meme, huh? I’ve been around blogs and people complaining tummy problems. Can we blame the weekend?
Di masarap yung chicharon na nabili ko. I settled on the YumYum fish cracker. I got it near Wanchai Market. I discovered a small Pinoy shop there so no more travelling to WorldWide Hse.
hey, i hope youre feeling better
I think I’ll go back to enjoying can of cokes, maybe it wasn’t the cause of this ’suffering’. It’s the dimsum. Thanks meeya, felt much better now.
Step away from the coke, friend. Excessive consumption is going to dissolve your stomach lining.
Ok now I’m shifting to coffee. Is that better? Thanks Pari for the enlightenment.
Go easy on the coffee. Too much will cause anxiety, irregular heart beats, insomnia, muscle twitches, irritability, raise blood pressure, and increase the risk of getting heart disease.
Your welcome! Always a pleasure to be a wet blanket. ;P
Those are my signs now, Pari but I’m hungry all the time. I eat whenever I feel is not necessary. Maybe I have stomach worms? Hehehe.
Thanks for the kind words.
No worries, am glad that you’re not getting annoyed by the nagging.
Anyway, there are several possibilities for the hungry feeling. Could be stress (not necessarily related to work), and food’s comfort. Or… you’re simply not drinking enough water.
Hunger can also be a sign of dehydration. Down a glass of water or 2 and see if you’re still hungry.
Actually, I miss some “nagging”. My mother used to do that to me all the time, but since now I’m on my own in the flat, “quietness” is pretty much defeaning.
You’re right, the problem with me is that I can keep 2 big bottles of distilled water in a fridge for weeks without even touching it. I realized that I’ve become “cokacolic” everytime I watch the CSI series and read the blogs.
I just never listen to other people telling me the same defintion of dehydration. I have to push the habit of drinking water on a regular basis from now on.
How about hot jasmine teas?
Hmmm… * thinking*
Oh alright, it’s passable. =] Freshly brewed tea is nice. I drink a cup of green tea every morning before class starts.
Try to cleanse your system with water as reguarly as you can. Used to drink everything else other than water, it gave me an energy boost… for a short while and then it was a rapid downward spiral.
I understand the strange quietness. It hits you hardest when you’re sick because that’s when you’ll miss mom the most. Well, at least that’s for me.
I’ll try to that, at least two 32ounces of water daily and feel accomplished. I can see it’s not hard really - it may not be as tasty, it’s considerably cheaper, right?
K… when exactly do these pains start? after your meals or in the middle? you said milk relieves the pain after a few hours… does eating more food relieve it too? yes, eating better may help (hey look who’s calling the kettle black… i need to get my diet in shape too) but i think you should go see a family doctor. depending on what you answer, ther’s a slight chance it may be ulcers tho it sounds more like reflux.
*in my best naggy mom-like voice, complete with the finger-wagging* ….and lay off the ciggies & coffee!! =P (sorry, i couldn’t resist!)
It’s official, it’s peptic ulcer. I have some flakes to dive in to my milk. Here, try it tastes good without a cheese.
But yeah, you’re correct, after a big meal, it deteriorates, I can’t tell where the pain comes from. Maybe I eat too fast or I just don’t drink. I would blame it on my lack of drinking beer…. I mean water. OK, MOM I hear you.
Thanks.
Ought to do a ciggies and coffee cold turkey one day don’t you reckon?
I’ll put that on my New Year’s Resolution again, Pari. hahaha. I did try for a week, boy I love the smoke-free flat. But then I think the ashtray sits near my desk, that’s probably why I can’t stop it. NO don’t tell me to throw it, maybe it’s the lighter. Hahaha.
Lightssssss, it’s dark in here!
