Hakim's Visit to the Doctor for Abscess (Bisul)

Salam all,

Waiting for a medical specialist is always trying out my patient. This was our second visit to see the doctor for his abscess. 2 hours is the minimum. But the quality of service is normally worth the waiting. Some may wonders, two visits just for abscess (bisul)???

Ala .... masa kita kecik2 dulu pun selalu gak kena bisul, tak pernah pun jumpa pakar? Paranoid ke apa maknya ni? ....

I felt ridiculous too, to see the medical specialist just for an abscess. But, .... with knowledge that you know about medical, with more explanation that you receive from a doctor, the more worrying you become. When I asked the general practioner, "How serious can it be, if I just let it (the abscess) heal by itself? She said, the blood my get infectious and it will lead to a more serious health situation. That is the reason why I agreeingly took him to see the medical specialist.

Besar sangat ke bisulnya tu? Biasa la, kena bisul .... nanti baik sendiri je. Dulu-dulu kat kampung, orang letak kapur je kat keliling tu, nak bagi nanah keluar.

Ye ke??? I don't know about that. Cannot recall if it ever happen to me before, neither do my husband. The abscess is quite big at the place it normally occur (hmmm...), it burst, but no pus came out. The GP told us that it has to be removed, for adult, the GP will normally do a small incision and drain the pus from the abscess. But for children, it is not advisable to do a 'live' incision. It requires a minor surgery to remove the pus (which seems to be very thick). SURGERY! Not again .... not another visit to the Operation Theater, No! No! No! That is how it landed us to two visits with the medical specialist. When the specialist assess the abscess, it tells that it is not fully mature (orang kampung kata, 'tak masak lagi'), therefore an operation cannot be done.

Anyway, alhamdulillah .... with another course of antibiotic, the abscess became smaller and finally its gone. No surgery is required, Hakim is happy, Ibu is happy. Alhamdulillah. Thank you Allah.

Kisahnya, the first course of antibiotic tu terlambat makan sebab maknya pergi team building, anak yang kat rumah tu, lupa nak bagitau ayah, therefore it became 'building on the abscess and pus'. Hmmm .... itulah puncanya, bisul tu membesar dengan megahnya. Lain kali kalau sesiapa kena bisul, cepat-cepatlah makan antibiotik.

Wallahua'lam

Asrama K.Ngah at MITST Alam Impian

Assalamualaikum. Asrama? Biasalah. Ramai yang pergi asrama. Nothing exciting about asrama. When I was a child, I used to read the story books. Series of them. We have the Famous Five, Secret Seven, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and one of my favorite is the Malory Towers. Malory Towers tells a story about life in a boarding school. It is also a reason for me wanted to go to a hostel. It motivates me. I always thought that all hostels are as envisioned by the writer. Luxury place to stay with lots of friends around. Full of activities and adventure. But...well.... story books are mostly fictitious. It was written to draw readers into purchasing it. My hostel was far worst that what I imagined. But there is where I grew up - my teenage life. Sending K.Ngah aka. Sabrina to her hostel last Sunday, brought back the Malory Towers into me. The dorm was luxurios. Single bedded. Six in a room. Large closet. Plenty of storage space (drawers attached to the bottom of the bed). And a study

Antara Anyer dan Jakarta

"Antara Anyer dan Jakarta" was a title of a song sang by Sheila Majid back in 80s. I tried to find the meaning of "Anyer" using the Google translate but to no avail. What about the song? Nothing. It's just because I just came back from Jakarta for a conference trip cum SHOPPING trip. I was accompanied by Suzana Ahmad and Norizan. Day 1: ====== Our journey began on 12th December. At approximately 5am, the driver reached my house. Izan is already there, in a short while Suzana arrived. We headed to KLIA. The check-in was a winding queue. After checking-in it leaves us with barely enough time for fajr prayer. At 9am, the tree stooges sat foot on the Indonesia land. We make a quick visit to the money changer and proceed for a cab. We have planned for the trip carefully and agreed to travel light as we will not be checking-in to the hotel upon arrival as the checking in time is only at 3pm. Instead, we headed towards our first destination, TANAH ABANG. It is r

Doa ketika ternampak orang sakit dan mohon terhindar darinya.

Assalamualaikum, Ahad malam Isnin. Malam yang sedih sayu. Biasanya hari Ahad, adalah hari ziarah anak-anak atau hari menghantar anak-anak balik ke asrama. Upon doing that, when entering the home, I can feel the emptiness. The quiet house, no greetings, no laughters. And due to that, I will make my way to the surau, to gather bits of pearl of knowledge. "O Allah, forgive me if the reason for my being in Your masjid is wrong Forgive me, Ya Allah. But truthfully, its too quiet at home, and to me, being in the masjid is more meaningful rather than locked in the empty house alone. Forgive me Ya Allah." And tonight, it was Ustaz Firdaus. Sharing on Feqah. And one thing that I really think fruitful to share is this piece of doa.  ‘Alhamdulillah hillazi aafani mim mabtalaka bihi wa fadhalaani ala kaseerim mimman khalaqa tafdheela.” The Prophet said: “If somebody recites this dua while he saw someone else in some fatigue or tensions, he would not be involved in t
