My journey through sickness.

Well since my last post, which was 2 weeks or so ago, nothing has really changed.

One week of mad flu and aching back during my exams. One other week where I started feeling a tad better. Hew! Thought it would never end. I made it through my finals just in time! I guess Bouddha, Allah, God, you name it, was just too kind with me for only that short period of time! Next thing you know, Boom! 40oC of fever and coughing my lungs off. And that, for more than a week! Seriously, I don't know if it's because of my lover I had kissed (shoutout to you! love xo) or the number of time I had kissed my niece and nephew (which I remind you, goes to kindergarden) or I had too much people coming over or, or... how many door knobs I had licked (kidding)! In another hand, it can also be the consequence of the the flu I had. So after a week of whining and fever-ing and anything that ends with -ing, also after realizing that even after 4g of tylenol a day wouldn't lower my fever down and that cough syrup wasn't soothing in anyway my throat I had finally decided to go see the doctor. The latter first suspected Pneumonia. To make sure, I had to pass an X-ray and turned out my lungs wasn't too congested to be a pneumonia, so the result : Bronchitis.

According to the Canadian Lung Association...



Bronchitis means swelling in your air passages (bronchi). Bronchi are the air passages that connect your windpipe (trachea) with tiny air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs. The air sacs are where your body absorbs the oxygen you breathe in.

Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchi. This inflammation means the walls of your bronchi are swollen and filled with extra sticky mucus. Airflow into and out of your lungs is partly blocked because of the swelling and extra mucus in your bronchi.

Acute bronchitis, swelling in your bronchi, is usually caused by viruses — the same viruses that give you the common cold. The viruses attack the insides of your airways and infect them. Your airways react by getting red and swollen, and by making extra mucus

To prevent bronchitis:

- avoid smoke or smoking
- avoid people who has cold of flu
- wash your hands lovely hands <3

Seriously, through this sickness, I've seen it all from my mucus! From green to yellow, to slighty pink, spots of blood, clear but little foamy, thick, thin, my treat! ... anyways.

I was pretty relieved to finally know the diagnosis. It's bad, but at least I know I can treat it with antibiotics! Hopefully, it will work. It has to work! Christmas is near! :(


I started my treatment yesterday and now, my fever is gone. I also now have a little cup where I can spit in and rinse off instead my wasting all those tissue papers! (Yes, I love tofu spread :3)



I feel wayy better and feels like I haven't felt Okay for a while now! Even with my soar back! The mood is picking up...

I can now get things goin' and get things done. But for now Missy miss needs to sleep and take some rest. Nighty xo

Neige Niaise.

Une semaine de fièvre intense, de nez coulant, d'irritation nasale, de congestion, de migraine, de maux de dos, de déprime, de toux, de crachats. Pouah! Heureusement, je sens que ca s'en va tranquillement. Je peux finalement commencer à étudier pour mes examens finaux :(

UdeM et Mcgill!! :)

Dilemme.

Oh et on vient de monter de sapin de Noël. Ca fait du bien :)

Herry returns.

Ouf. Bientôt Noël. Bientôt la fin de session. Fini les stages. Oups! Les examens finaux. Aie Aie Aie! Lorsqu'on est en stage en soins, on n'est la dedans à fond! Mais une fois sortie de la broussaille, c'est un tout autre monde! De retour à la dure (encore plus dure) réalité! Hehe! J'y suis presque, pas question de lâcher maintenant!
Je suis tellement excitée d'avoir terminé mes stages que j'en suis tombée malade! Rhubbee (rhume)! :(
Cependant, même si j'ai bientôt terminé mon programme, je ne sais toujours pas à quelle université aller. Je voulais me rendre à Québec, mais c'est inconcevable pour mes parents. Je ne veux pas aller a l'Université de Montreal étant donné leur différente approche... Alors j'avais donc pensé à l'université de Sherbrooke mais pour ma mère, que de trouble! Je me sens vraiment prise dans une famille de coincés. Je crois que mes parents ont tellement eu une vie difficile qu'ils veulent éviter a tout prix tout ce qui pourrait sembler difficile pour moi, pour eux. (?) C'est comme s'ils me gardaient dans leur petite bulle, loin de l'étranger. Un jour, je me rebellerai! Et puis ce ne sera pas beau à voir! >:(
Sinon, mal de dos en fin de session aussi... verglas, neige, que de bonnes nouvelles non?
Anniversaire à Chateauguay ce soir! Ca me détendra un peu de tout ce stress.

Dernière journée.

Oh mon dieu... J'ai pas arrêté de cauchemarder! J'ai rêvé que mon patient a compliqué et qu'il a arrêté de respirer à mon début de quart :( ...

Chapeau pointu.

Une brève apparition sur mon blog pour dire qu'il ne reste qu'un jour avant la fin de mon stage!!! Dernière journée demain! :D Il faut que je fête ca! Donc récapitulons. Demain: dernière journée!!! :D Hahaha! Jeudi, présentation de cas clinique de 9h à 13h et puis je suis libre de mes stages! En plus, je suis en amour! :) Bisous xo

So hard.

Damn. Where did I put myself into? I can barely recognize myself... I'm sorry.

Obstacle.

Yesterday was the first day after the day I talked about my problem to my friend. It was the day where life has thrown me a rock. Difficult because I told myself I would be strong and that my friends would be there for me. Thought I would be able to forget about it by going out with my friends. None of that happened. I stayed all day at home. I don't blame them... even if they told me they will always be there for me through hard times. I guess it will be harder than what I thought it would be. Way harder. I got a long way to go. And that's just the beginning.
