Another trip to Doc...

Pay another visit to the Doc just now... 3 major reasons: 1) Cough and block nose not fully recovered, 2) The pain at my right leg is getting from bad to worst, 3) Fainted this morning.

Ok before you guys start bombing my phone and scold me on the other end of the computer, I am fine and well. The fainting spell is mainly due to sudden drop in blood pressure. Anyway, I am a known low bp case so no worries despite it is my first total black out case. Been experiencing those low bp signs often enough but just that it is must faster and unexpected this morning. The bp as of 1.5hrs ago is 90/70mmHG, low enough but not impossibly low.

Another thing is my right leg. Some of you may have heard my complaints about spider veins and pain after walking for awhile on my right leg. The tightness starts after walking at my normal speed for about 5-10 minutes than the pain starts. Initially I thought I put it on observation first since the flu and poor appetite issue seems more prominent. Last Thursday, while on my way home, I encountered a sharp pain on my right leg which is so bad that I had to limp for a few minutes before it went away. My right leg dosen't seem to be able to keep up with my left if I walk at full speed and the tightness is getting bad.

Due to the 2 above reasons, I was asked to go to a polyclinic to get a refereral for a specialist. Most probably will be getting a vascular specialist to do a check on my leg for arterial blockage or constriction. The low bp, decrease in appetite and lost of weight might also be related to some other underlying problems but it may be a problem by itself hahaha.

Now I am more afraid of the pain of doing the artery test than testing positive for autoimmune or some other vascular diseases. Had never experienced an artery puncture, shunders at the thought of it, considering how bad it is when they need to puncture my vein.

Basically I am still well in a way, just that there are alot of little annoying problems popping up every now and than. Oh YY you are right, apart from health issues, I do have many other issues bothering me, just that blocking them out at the moment seems more comfortable than dealing with them. Perhaps it is time for me to seriously take a break from things and deal with these problems one at a time...
