I hate my "gut"

I’ve been having this ache in my upper abdomen for more than two weeks now. It started as a dull chest pain just between the breastbone (sternum) and then slowly crawled to the lower ribs just right by the diaphragm. Since I don’t have any other symptoms like fever, difficulty in breathing, vomiting, constipation/diarrhea, or anything that can cause alarm like high blood pressure or fast heart rate, I thought it’s costochondritis which I know will go away on its own. 

But when I felt a sudden tightening on my chest—as if I was having a heart attack—while mopping the floor one night, I went and have it checked last week.

Let me change the tone of my blog post for now. I noticed that all my topics had to do with the current COVID situation and sometimes backreading triggers all sorts of anxiety and awful feelings. So please allow me to talk about something that’s a bit light—a happy update (at least for me). 

I HAVE A NEW TV! 

Before you think I’m here to brag about it, I am not. If you read through this, you’ll know the reason for this post.

Sorry if I have not been updating my blog the past few weeks. So many things have happened and if you also follow me on my other social media accounts, you’d probably know all of it by now. 

It’s hard to update when it’s an unfortunate event over another. Our family went through a tough time recently and it did send most of us to our knees.
