The suckiest day of my life happened on 4 feb. Following a tonsillectomy (removal of tonsils) on 20 Jan, I thought I was on the way to recovery after 12 days or so after 2 follow up visits to the A&E department of SGH, Then, the bleeding started. Thought it was nothing serious as it would stop after a while even though quite a bit of blood would come out. This happened for 4 times every alternate day until the climax on 4 feb. Which is officially the worst day of my life.

Apparently some massive internal hemorrhage developed and blood was leaking from the op site into the stomach, which eventually was expelled through the mouth a.k.a vomiting. I think I lost about 1-1.5 liters of blood, which is no joking matter,. (I passed out for a few minutes or so) Ambulance had to be called at 2.30am in the morning. (my first time riding one) Reached the A&E dept of CGH, then had my throat vacuumed to stop the bleeding which was uber traumatic when you keep puking blood every few minutes. Eventually had to go for emergency operation to cauterize the bleeding part. Subsequent hospitalization for 3 days with transfusion of 2 packs of blood. Finally now on the way to recovery but my enlistment on 6 Feb had to be delayed. Downgraded to pes D awaiting medical review. Which basically means I'm going to waste 2 months of my time while I go for another checkup and reschedule enlistment, hopefully sometime in April with the last JC batch. All I can say is, it sucks to be me on the 4th of Feb.
