Oops! alamak! It's you, Fatum! Sorry!
I read your sms early this morning, just before I left for work. Sorry, didn't reply cause you would have received the SMS at 4+am! Didn't wanna startle you! 
I haven't watched that movie yet. Guess I'll just wait to rent it or get it when some big sales come round again.
The next movie I wanna watch is "The Devil Wears Prada". Maybe make it a girls' evening out movie outing again.

Overall, movie was OK lah.Originally posted by laurence82:I have watched the Devil Wears Prada

I'm now in a ward where laminectomies, fusions, discectomies, and rhizolysis is the order of the day. I've seen patients recover fast and very well from these operations.Originally posted by the Bear:am sick of my back being screwed...

If your doctor highly recommends it, you might want to think twice about it, especially since nothing seems to help so far. -
Hehehe
laurence's into ice queens..
I think I know why the movie failed me
THE CLOTHES WERE NOT THAT GREAT LEH??!!!

let's see how.. i'll see what the insurance fellas say.. i mean, i've been paying them a king's ransom and have not claimed anything..
see if they will pay for this.. -
Ice queen? Meryl Streep (on screen or real life) has this intelligence in her, that wits, that humour, so alluringOriginally posted by choco B:Hehehe

The clothes..well, i am not expecting any Singaporean lady to wear them...they are not for our weather, and they are super flamboyant and loud -
Izzit?! In a show that features the fashion world, I'm shocked!Originally posted by choco B:Hehehe

okay.. one for the cult leader..
how quickly do they heal? as in, after the fusion, how soon before they're able to walk around and do stuff?
and another.. how much rehab is involved? -
This was an issue that made me totally, absolutely amazed! I'm not sure if the same level of care can be assured in Singapore, but judging by what I've seen so far, I'm just awed!Originally posted by the Bear:okay.. one for the cult leader..

Most patients would still be in bed on the PCA (Patient-Controlled Analgesic Pump with Morphine or Pethidine) to stop the pain the first day post-op. Most breeze through their first night with the Morphine doing a good job of controlling the pain but if you're like one of those few individuals who are built like elephants and hippos and need like the entire arsenal of morphine before you get comfort, then the pain will bother you more.
Anyways, most of them start eating during the 5th or 6th hour post-op with very few throwing up from it. Depending on the procedure and the extent of the op, a few of them will be seen by the Physio the next day and sat in bed, then asked to stand up for a few mins. On the 2nd day post-op, the patients will be asked to take one step further by walking a few steps towards the door of the room, and depending on how well they tolerate it, they will be walked out of the room, with or without walking aids.
Most are discharged by Day Five, assuming nothing untoward happens. Of course, that's in general course there are those who are discharged in Day 3, and others who are discharged on Day 8 or so.
Why don't you find out more about the procedure that's involved in your case and then I can give you more info? But generally, I'm just plain amazed at how speedy the recovery can be. But then again, this is a Private Hospital where only the good surgeons operate in. So make sure this time when you return to NUH that you INSIST on a good surgeon operating on you, ok? -
i'll go ask..
and mostly, see if the insurance shysters will pay for it... -
I couldnt stand ops
The only one I had, i woke up vomitting and vomitting...and vomitting
Nurses said because they injected a cocktail of drugs into me, and so she gave me one injection to stop me from vomitting....five mins later i upset the basin again... -

i dont think i need it bahOriginally posted by the Bear:when was your lobotomy?
From wiki
A lobotomy is a form of psychosurgery, also known as a leukotomy (Greek: lobos: Lobe of brain, tomy: cutting). It consists of cutting the connections to and from, or simply destroying, the prefrontal cortex. These procedures often result in major personality changes. Lobotomies have been used in the past to treat a wide range of mental illnesses including schizophrenia, clinical depression, and various anxiety disorders. -
