Life in 2008 so far

WAD THE HECK?!?!
I'VE BEEN HIC-CUPPING FOR ONE WHOLE DAY NOW..
WHEN WILL IT STOP!?!?!?!
seriously.

hic-cupped while playing soccer in the morning,
at mosque for friday prayers in the afternoon,
at GESS in the evening,
and now, at night, as i'm blogging.
getting really irritating.

i think its my medicine.
Yup. More doses of Vasican and Ventolin for me.
FYI, those are medicine for phlegm and asthma,
in which im still suffering from even after 1 month already.
ive been to the doctor for 4 times now.
please dun make this asthma a chronic sickness.
OMG just had a mega hiccup.

Ventolin is wicked.
In the airway, activation of the effect of Ventolin results in relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle resulting in a widening of the airway (bronchodilation). Inhaled salbutamol sulfate has a rapid onset of action, providing relief within five to fifteen minutes of administration.
(taken from Wikipedia)

However, its adverse effects are:-
- tremor
-
palpitations
- muscle cramps/aches
- hyperactivity
-insomnia

ALL of which i've been experiencing.

The tremor is killing me.
Its like having a fever; i feel cold yet hot,
resulting in me wearing a jacket
while turning the fan to maximum.

Palpitation
is an abnormal awareness
of the
beating of the heart,
whether it is too slow,
too fast, irregular, or at its normal frequency.
It gets kinda scary at times.

Muscle aches.
What can i say?

Hyperactivity and Insomnia.
Ventolin makes ur heart beat faster.
And this faster pumping of blood to the body,
i think results in hyperactivity
meaning im restless all the time.
And thus, i have insomnia, trouble getting to sleep.

Last night i rolled in bed up til 1.30am,
and woke up at 5am.
doesnt sound too bad,
but i was already very tired.
At least i felt tired,
yet im hyperactive and restless.

Boy, my body is confused.
