Above is an example of how this biopsy done. From this biopsy result I knew I got lymphoma. Actually, neck glands biopsy may done using needle also but less sample may be taken and the cells may be insufficient to test ( one of my friend experience).

So, of course the drama behind each event is important right. Actually, this is my first time been warded and been in the operation theater, and i'm alone! My bangah just send me to the hospital lobby at 7 am and he bye2 me 5 mins later. I strenghten my spirit and believe all is well because its just biopsy, nothing to be scared. After register, my doctor fetch me at the lobby and yaaa, its so sweet and he accompanied me to the ward. I'm start nervous while changing the clothes. Luckily there's a girl beside my bed who also just done her operation, so she calm me down and she also alone all the time. 

To make me more relax, i called mom,dad, grandma, brothers and cuna. The most scary moment is when the nurses bring you to the OT, I think maybe the way they bring you is scary. Hahah. If they let me just walk away by myself is better instead push my bed along the way. I hate that moment till now. 

In the OT, they transfer me to a table ( looks like a table la because no mattress). The lamp is so big, the environment is not so friendly, just make me more terrified. Once my doctor came in, immediately i'm felt so relieved because its like oooo, finally someone I knew is here with me. He rubbed my shoulders to calm me down while the 'anaes' doctor inject bius in my hand. I recite syahadah all the time and imagined Allah with me holding my hand. How grateful to be born in Islam and have Allah all the time. So, walla.. Its really like in the movie. I slept less than a minute. 

The operation started at 9am and I awake at 11++ am. Alhamdulillah, nurses took care of me very well since no one accompany me at that time. I have no idea how its looks like after the operation and I thought I can handle it alone. But actually I really need someone!!! so that I wont have to press the nurse button all the time. 

So, tomorrow and the day after, cuna, bangah and makteh accompanied me all the time. Hehe..thanks korang!
