Heartburn in pregnancy at 25weeks

Today, while i was seeing patients in my clinic, suddenly i felt hot, crushing chestpain. central.
heat at the centre of the chest radiating to my neck..
my throat
my mouth
my face
...

i went blank.
thinking what was happening to me?
the burning is just so intense that you feel you wanted to puke, but you can't
that was my first time ever i experience heartburn in pregnancy or life.
burning.

Now that i get to experience what my patients are complaining.
before I thought the heartburn is just a normal gastritis pain

so what did I do 
I panicked
really
I even went to check for my ECG (electrocardiogram). normal.


then my friend gave me syrup MMT (Magnesium trisilicate) -> nothing
t. ranitidine --> finally!

so i sit still, drank A LOT of plain water
and ate soup and biscuits every two hour.
hee.

doctors are normal human too.

what is heartburn again?

the symptoms
our tummy gets smaller as the uterus grows.. 

how it happen, the acid reflux
so, when you have all of these symptoms,please go and see a doctor.
you'll need medications; antacid, or antihistamine to get rid of it. maybe you will need it daily, like I do now.

AVOID!! 
spicy/oily food
tight clothing
lying down after eating --> aahahha! me --> tired after eating lhor..

Drama klinik 1

Hari selasa. Drama setiap hari di klinik. Tapi hari ini dapat 2 kes yang hampir sama. Kes 1. Mak anak pertama. 38minggu Keluar cecair jernih 3 hari. Baru dtg hari ini sbb temujanji. Demam tiada. Tiada sakit perut. Baby gerak ok. Mak tak tahu tu air ketuban ke tak sbb sbb tak sakit. Dx: air ketuban pecah awal? (Preterm premature rupture of membrane) Kes 2. Mak anak kedua. 33minggu Sakit perut kontraksi dari malam tadi. Setiap 10minit perut mengeras. Datang hari ini sbb temujanji. Demam tiada. Baby gerak ok. Mak rasa ok je. Ingat biasa Kiraan kontraksi : 1:10:20 - satu kontraksi dalam 10minit selama 20saat Dx: premature labour contraction? False contraction? Tiap kali datang follow up mmg akan ditekankan tanda perlu ke hospital segera. : sakit perut/ tanda bersalin/ baby kurang gerak. Ibu selalu beralasan ikut tarikh temujanji / ingat ini normal proses. No. You must always ask. Dan masa misi educate tu tolong dengar. Huhu. The effect akan kena ke baby / ibu. ...

Rengit

parents in law were in Kluang for the weekend. boring-boring dok rumah, kami pun berjalan ke Bt.Pahat. on the way there, my husband had this 'brilliant' idea - visiting rengit. Rengit -  town in the  Batu Pahat District  of  Johor ,  Malaysia . It is the border town between Batu Pahat and Pontian district. Approximately 37km away from  Bandar Penggaram,Batu Pahat , capital of  Batu Pahat  district and 38km away from  Pontian Kechil . Famous for its second hand goods (electric appliances, furnitures, baby furnitures, children toys, shoes, cloths etc.) mostly from Singapore. In my mind, the town looked like a very nice place with cheap, affordable, quality goods.. tapi.. sampai2 je. sgt xmemuaskan hati kot. rows of self made shophouses, some sell the items in front of their houses. the goods there are more like junks. when we entered a shop, not well organized, dusty, the prices are few ringgit less than the original 1st hand goods.
