Things are getting a little bit scary down in my memory lane.
Some steemians know that I am suffering of chronic kidney disease. Kidney failure, in other words. As such, I have to undergo dialysis twice a week, every week, for life; or until kidney transplant happens.
A lot of stuff come with dialysis. One effect can be felt in your social life. (I mean, my social life before is not that hectic, still). There are times when you want to hang out with your friends and/or girlfriend, but you can't. I totally agree that chronic kidney diseases are so random that you don't know when it will hit you. As a result, you just have to pass or make excuses. Because if you just say "I am not feeling well", they would not believe you. Sad.
One of the things I experience that most people do not understand is my mental fog. People think that I am just a selfish, careless lad roaming around the city. I hope so.
Sadly, mental fog comes with dialysis. According to my doctor/ nephrologist, she told me earlier, forgetfulness is so common in dialysis patients. It's either my blood is not getting enough cleaning sessions and/or I am not getting enough rest.
Sigh. She pointed out again that my job is so stressful that I need to slow down a bit. I need rest. I mean, I am resting but, I guess, it's not enough. What's making this situation more stressful is the fact that I need my job to pay for my dialysis sessions- to extend my life. However, in order also to extend my life- I need to slow down. Being workaholic in me can choke.
The conversation started when I asked my doctor why I tend to forget a lot of things lately. For your information, I have lost the following in just a span of two months: my wallet with 10,000 pesos in it (I have withdrew the said amount from an ATM so I can pay my group's flight tickets to Manila for my #roadtoKT), my IDs in it, and other important stuff in my wallet. I thought I would remember, but I lost my ATM the next week. I lost my umbrella. Then my phone. My phone hurt me most. It had all my memories in there. My three-year old phone huhuhuhu.
With those alarming stuff happening in my life, I seek the advice of my nephrologist and that's what she said. Rest, rest, rest. Sigh.
That's basically what happened today. Today is making me realize that life is not just working like a horse.
