fondue,
i had to fast from 11pm the night b4, 2 prepare 4 op next day. Admitted in morning 4 afternoon surgery. (ur hospital or clinic nurse will advise u.)
medisave pays abt 90%. The rest by yourself 1st. whether U can claim the remainder or for Gynae consultation is determined by ur company.
i was unable 2 claim insurance coverage from company nor pte, as it seems insurance doesn't cover m/c unless it is caused by accident.
I had 2 wks hospitalisation leave, and gyane follow-up check told me i can go back to work liao.
hope these helps.
lyn,
i remembered when i woke up from the GA, i was so hungry, i asked the nurse to give me milo. hee hee.
but then hor, later the pain (i think from the uterus contraction) was so painful, the tears rolled. i think all the nurses labelled me as crybaby for the day. They had to give me painkillers, and they also asked if i have low threshold of pain. i always tot i had quite high level of pain threshold but i guess the pain is really unbearable. But i really appreciate the nurses at KKH. They even went all the way to get me a hot water pack for my cramps.
i guess one (unspoken) factor which holds me back from TTC is i am so scared of history repeating. Nothing will erase that memory of surgery and the hurt i felt when the doc had to insert the pill to dilate the cervix. i was soaking up the entire pillow. haiz.
