It was my first time to TBCU in my whole life. That day was on Tuesday, 25th Sept. The gp of 5B teachers and students went that afternoon.
We took the jab and left for home after that. This is the Skin (Mantoux) test
3 days later, on the fri, we went make to take the measurements.
A total of 5 teachers and 3 students were aksed to take x-ray of their lungs for further examination as the swell on the jab area was above the limit.
After the x-ray, we went back to the room to wait for the "verdict". Kay seng, Meng Han and Yao Ming don t need to take the medicine, INH. However the rest of us : Mr Woo, Mrs Chew, chandra and myself with Huimin have to take. Altho the x-ray shows that there is nothing wroong with our lungs so far.
2 shocks within a day: taking x-ray in my state? Taking INH? when it comes with side effects... So far most of them already complained of symptoms like rashes, bloatedness and fevrish. Went to consuly Dr Tan and Dr Benedict. read up in the literature, talk to staff nurses from TBCU. We finally decided to delay the 6-month treatment till after delivery.
These months are ups and downs. Seems to have more troughs. Taught me esp to rely on God more and look up to Him for direction.
