Save Lives with Cyro-Cell

Cryo Cell. What is it? What do you know about Cryo Cell?? A cell named Cryo?? Or a type of cell in cryo category?? Hehe..the answer is none of the above. Cryo Cell is actually one important bank for parents. To keep money?? Of course not money. It is a bank for parents to keep and preserve their newborn's stem cell extracted from their baby's cord blood cells for future medical purpose.

I was pregnant two times before, and I tell you, I've read a lots of information about cord blood banking and its benefits. The most famous one is its potential medical benefits of treating disease like severe anemia, acute leukemia and sickle disease. Sounds like interesting right??

Do you know that Cord blood stem cell transplants have already changed—and saved—thousands of lives around the world? Yeah, you need to read all of the testimonials available in http://www.cryo-cell.com/. I'm not going to explain in details about what had happend to all this parents. You need to read it yourself.

If you have a family member or relatives who has the history of disease like acute leukemia, you might want to consider preserving your baby's cord blood in the future. Of course you don't want anything happend to your baby, but you will never know what will happend in the future. In case (touchwood) your baby got the disease too, the cord blood you preserved might be the one thing that can save your baby's life.

So, what you need to do now is, try to get more information about cord blood banking before you become a parent. If you have no idea where to get the info needed, go to http://www.cryo-cell.com/ now. I might not be able to explain everything to you, but I'm sure Cryo-Cell will be able to provide all the info you need.

My Pap Smear

Got my result yesterday and it look good..Hehehe YIPEEEE!! 2 weeks ago, Dr. Sheila the Gynae told me that my sample doesn't look so good. Make me worry for 2 weeks oh. So when i got the result yesterday, the first thing i checked was if i have any infection...haha nasib baik teda!

Anybody know what it means if the test for ENDOX / SQ. MET. CELLS is present? I've been goggling to find the meaning of it but cannot find lah..Though overall result is ok, i'm still worry about that one test..

Probably i should call Dr. Sheila, but funny is, i don't have her number..ahaha die lah like this. Ok lah, whoever know what the one result mean, do let me know ya..

AESP done..so the results??

Phewwww..my check-up was completed yesterday without any difficulties or 'uncomfortablelities' or other bad bad event...So here is my story about my check up yesterday.

I reached the Health Screen Centre about 9.04am and went straight away to register myself. There were at least 40 other people that time. Means many 'Health Concerned' people were doing their check-up as well.

To cut my story short, i was asked to change my clothes to the attire provided by them..it was a little big for me, so i kasi fashioned a bit the attire become like kimono. I saw some people also follow my style..hehehe

So here are the tests done on me and also the results :

> Blood test - Itu doctor is very good lah..he can cucuk my arm, take my blood and left only a small dot on my arm. No pain at all..eventhough i kepoh-kepoh see he suck-up my blood used the long syringe. The result for the test, PERFECT!! hehe Total Cholesterol, HDL and the other type of 'minyak-minyak' level are below the high risk. My liver is functioning well, glucose is low, non-reactive rheumatoid, cancer profile is good..tarak cell yang berkelakuan ganjil..except for my eosinophil counts which above the normal count. It supposed to be 1-6 but my reading is 9 (maybe i'm not feeling really well yesterday..so my white blood trying to fight the infection by producing an extra eosinophil).

> Urine test - Kencing pun sihat. hehe no ketones, no protein, pH almost neutral and nothing ganjil-ganjil with it. This shows that my kidney are also functioning well..

> X-Ray - My lungs is very healthy..wahahaha itu doctor say..the only not good thing about my x-ray is..my stomach indicate that i'm very..very hungry that time..muahaha of course lah hungry.. I'd been fasting for almost 13hours oh..

> Eye Test - Wah!! I like this test very much..first the doctor lastik my eyes with 'don'tknow what the hell' was it..then i had to see the bus and passenger...then have to see the small-small house..the results are..OK! Left eye is perfect.. 0.00 of everything..but right eyes sudah sikit rosak..naked eyes sight reading is +0.25 (i don't know what the heck this is means) then the other one is -0.50 (apa barang sia pun tak tau!!). I was lazy to ask the doctor because at that moment, i still can see clearly with my eyes.
`
> Electrocardiogram test - Ini paling difficult!! the attendent connect so many wires to my body and told me don't move because she wanted to take my heart activities reading. I just cannot lie still because i balik-balik 'AH CHOOOOOO' . After the fourth attempt, i managed to hold my sneeze until she finished her test. Anyway..i scored very good with it. Belum ada blockage so far! huhuhu..

> Pap Smear - I want to give 5* rate to this DR. SHEILA..(Nasib baik perempuan). She done the test very..very profesional because i don't even feel anything while she korek-korek 'there'. Fuhhhh!! Result, not so good if based on the discharge appearance..alamak!! But i will know the full result within two weeks from now. If everything is ok and no abnormality to my cervix, they will just post the result..but if any weird-weird result come out, Dr. Sheila will personally call me..!(Pray nothing is wrong lah)

> General appearance - OK!! Sihat walafiat..my boobs kena raba-raba and thank god no lump or anything there..Nose also healthy, ear also healthy..suma healthy..hehee

My consulatation was done with Dr. Sheila. There are few other doctors actually but i kena put with Dr. Sheila which is good because she cannot stop giving compliment to me. She keep saying.. WOW!! WOW!! eveytime she saw my results. Haha.. Like WOW!! Your cholest level is very good.. WOW!! Very healthy heart..!! WOW!! Your lungs is clear indicating a healthy lungs..and many others..Forgot already because too many compliment. The best part was when i want to go off, Dr. Sheila shook my hand and said "It's very nice to meet a healthy and pretty young lady like you"..wahahahaha!! I gave her 5* rate when i fill the survey form..she is that good making people 'bontot kembang'.
`
So that was my check-up yesterday..I was so tired when i reached home. There was other story that i was lost at the highway on my way back home.. :) but will tell about it next time. For now, i'm feeling better and glad that i still have a healthy body (except the pap smear which i hope will be normal).

Advance Executive Health Screening (AESP)

I’m a lil’ bit nervous now because this coming Friday I have an appointment to do my long overdue AESP Medical check-up (see the name also like very grand already ekekeee). Can you imagine..long needle used to draw my blood. Eeeeeeeeeee.. 'takutnya'!!!! But Takut or not..I know I still have to do this medical check-up..Who knows some of my organs are failing without me knowing it? More scary!!

Anyway, my check-up is consist of Blood and Urine Test, Chest X-Ray (manatau ada sakit Liver ka??), Electrocardiogram (To see whether my heart still healthy or not), General Inspection, Physical Examination, Eye Examination and PAP SMEAR (Arggggghhh..lagi takut).

This will be my face when Dr. start poking me!

Out of all the test..I’m really scared with the Pap Smear..not because of discomfort but knowing that somebody going to ‘korek-korek’ there..Aiya!! If female doctor going to conduct this test..i might be little comfortable..but if male?? Think twice oh..maybe I’m not going to do it..hahaha Why I don’t want a male dr..?? Becuse I don’t like another male species poking my most private part…Even my 2 deliveries were attended by female nurse and female doctor…No offend ya male doctor..! I just don’t like you..heheheee

Ok..there are few rules I have to follow before doing the check-up (ada juga rules bah)

1. I have to fast 8 hours from midnight. (Sei lor..lapar lah macam nie)
2. No contact lens (nasib baik mata masih Ok)
3. No alcohol for 48 hours before check-up ( I don’t drink alcohol anyway)
4. No Jewelry (hmmm..not sure why..hehehe)
5. No sexual intercourse (ya lah..ya lah..tahan lah for 2 days lah)
6. No douching (find in the dictionary what douching means lah)

This medical check-up will be done at Country Height Health Screen at Palace of The Golden Horses..Ai satu keja lagi..have to drive there..at least 45 minutes from my place..Hmmm..malasnya! sudah lah jam gila babas going there..

Ok lah..i hope I won’t faint seeing all the medical equipment this Friday.. if not..ayoo malunya..sure I will be in the paper come Saturday morning for fainting while doing medical check-up..some more front page pulak tu! hahaha

Ok..Ok..last advice.. PREVENTION IS ALWAYS BETTER THAN CURE..so you all out there..don’t forget to do your medical check-up..
