Pending

While I thought I already grab my dream job, things became worst than it already is.

I am cleared of my PTB, but when I took my medical for the company last week, the doctor told me that I have hypertension. They still wouldn't allow me to work unless they found out what's causing my blood pressure to rise. I took different test again and will find the result on Monday.

I am so frustrated because this is my dream job and my dream company. I am doing everything just to lower my BP now. No more meat and I started eating veggies. I hope everything turn out to be fine. The position needs me to start immediately so I'm scared they might just look for different candidate cause there are tons of complications with my medical. Please God help me.

Please pray for me.

All Clear!

So yesterday before we head to Pet Express and have Julia checked up, my mom and I dropped by at the hospital again to know if I can have my medical clearance ready. We waited for about 30 minutes. The doctor came just a few minutes before 5. Chat a little and then she checked my x-rays. There! She confirmed that I am free from the disease! I no longer have Tuberculosis and is now fit to work!

Thats good news to me. I thank God for not letting me panic and stay focus. Now all I have to do is just wait for my last interview next week and maybe I could start working right after then. I miss working in the corporate world.

Afraid!

Before I finally go back to work for the corporate world, I had an early check up to see if there will still be a TB findings on my chest x-rays. I had the disease when I was still working as a researcher for ABS-CBN and it might be caused by the need to go to different places to get stories - sometimes in the slums.

I took the prescribed meds for 3 months and didn't continue the supposed-to-be 6 months treatment because it gave me headaches so now, I am really worried that they may still find the disease alive and kicking. I need all the prayers I can get.

Be back at the hospital tomorrow. I am scared.
