Hello Sunshine.

 

I personally experienced having a very long period.  It is like 16 days which prompt me to have a check up with my OB Gyne.  I was not planning to visit her actually because my period often slow don like a spotting and then the next day there will be gushing.  I was thinking this could be hormonal because I am experiencing stress lately with life and finances.  So just like you I am struggling to make our budget get buy and money for the check up is not part of the list.  I know what you will say.  Why I do not have an emergency fund.  That is what I am asking myself too.  Our income is just limited.  I do not have a multiple income stream.  Both my blog and vlogs income is not enough to cash out yet.  I hope you do not mind supporting me,  These way you are making a great impact on our life.  And we are just dependent on a single income household.  We are trying our best to make both ends meet.  But the expenses is just a handful.  I will strive harder to be financially independent.  I wish I can double our household income in a months time before Judith (due date) and Billy (bills) knock on our door again.

 

Well anyhow, I finally decided not to go to work to have a check up to find out what is wrong with my reproductive organ  because I cannot see an end to this bleeding episodes, I am afraid to get anemia and super afraid to get a blood transfusion God forbid.  I used whatever I saved for the bills to have a money for check up.

What the OB GYNE did?

First she wanted to check if I am pregnant.  So I had a pregnancy test.  It came out negative.

Next, She put a vaginal speculum to see where the bleeding is coming from and it came from the inside not definite which part of my reproductive organs.

Next she did an internal exam or IE to feel if I have some mass on my lower abdomen or shall I say matres in tagalog.  She did not feel any.  It is a big relief.

 I was supposed to have a Transvaginal Ultrasound but their machine is under maintenance that time so I have to go somewhere for the test.  This is to clearly see where am I bleeding.  

 

I went to her other clinic where there is Ultrasound machine and did the procedure there.  Then, she finally saw what is the cause of my long period. As of this writing it is now exactly 18days  She saw that I have Myoma or fibroids.  She found 3 myomas that she says a grape in size.  Which gave me a shock because I am only 43 years old and no bad habits like smoking and drinking alcohol, I am not even a fan of coffee and as much as possible I do not take self medicate.  I am still in disbelief.  She said she cannot clearly see what is inside my uterus because the lining and the bleeding still hinder her sight.  She needs to repeat all the test after 1 week if the menstruation will stop or else I will undergo a dilatation and curettage. I am praying and hoping that I won't have to go through that 😭 😭 😭 

 

After the visit she prescribed Tranexamic Acid.  Full dose 3x a day for 2 days.  I am kinda scared of this because the side effect of this medicine is having blood clots and that will be another ordeal. God forbid I will surpass this.

She also prescribed me Primolut N - a hormonal medicine particularly progesterone that will help my body control irregular bleeding or heavy periods.  This I have to take for 5 days.

As what I've said, I need to go back to her clinic again after 1 week to repeat all the test.

AWARENESS: Taking of Tranexamic Acid and Primolut N increased the risk of blood clot so extreme measure should be done.  And please get a prescription before taking any medicine because that might put you on risk for clotting.

 

 

What are my signs and symptoms prior to this longer period episode? 

 Nothing.  It just happen on the 5th day and my last day of my period while I was at work I felt a sudden heavy flow and I was puzzled because it was supposed to be the last day and all I have was a spotting.  I did not feel any pain like dysmenorrhea or even mild cramps.  When I got home I am fully soaked.  I just take it as my normal day.  On my 7th day this is the heaviest part because I can feel it dripping.  Excuse for those who are eating.  On the 10th day it slows down.  Then its like a roller coaster.  It will slow down then the next day it will gush.  I was thinking my body is expelling so much and little reproduction of blood is happening.  It might cause me anemia.  That is the time I decided to get a consultation.

What is myoma?

My Ob Gyne told me not to worry too much about myoma because it is mostly benign and eventually it will decrease in size if you reached the menopausal stage and most often people do not need surgery for that.

 

Mr Google answered most of my questions in mind.  Here is what I found out about it.

Myoma or fibroids appear during a woman's child bearing age and when her estrogen level is high.

How are we going to prevent myoma?

1. Avoid salty food
2. Avoid processed food
3. Avoid alcoholic drinks/caffein
4. Exercise regularly
5. Loose weight if possible
6. Eat potassium reach food.
   

 

How much does it all cost?

 Ob Gyne's fee - P500

Pregnancy test - P300

IE Test - P200

Transvaginal ultrasound - P1670

Medicine: Tranexamic acid - P39 per cap

Primolut N - P 45 per tab

Hello mga Sunshine.

 

Sa panahon ng krisis dapat talaga mayron tayong iba pang income bukod sa ating regular employment dapat magkaron din tayo ng multiple income stream kahit maliit lang basta meron sabi nga ng mga intsik barya barya lang pero sure naman.

Sabi nga nila we should dream big.  Matagal ko ng gusto magkaron ng passive income kaya in my own little way gumagawa ako ng paraan to earn my side hustle.

Ngayon quarantine patok na patok ang online selling kasi nga bawal lumabas.

2. Apartment - isa eto sa mga goal ko para kahit paano sure na may monthly income ko.

3. Youtube - dami na ngayon youtuber dahil sa pagkainip at onti onti na silang nagkakaron ng followers and views

4. IG - nagsulputan na din ang online seller dito.

Hello Sunshine.

Madami akong nai encounter sa mga FB groups about tipid living and how to be frugal.  Saludo ako on how they manage their finances amidst the limited income.

Me and my family been struggling financially.  Kahit noong 2 pa kami nag nagtatrabaho sobrang wala kaming ipon and naipundar.  DI rin kasi kami mahilig magbenta benta on our day off.  Priority namin ang pahinga since on our day off anjan na nakatambak ang labada, maglilinis ng bahay, mamamalengke at of course magpahinga.  Siguro sa iilan ginagawa nilang night ang day at mostly sa kanila ay di na nagpapahinga.  Sa type ng work namin hindi pwede na hindi ka matutulog ng 6 hours or more kasi mahirap ang trabaho.  Katawan mo naman ang magbabayad neto later on.

Sometime nga sleep deprive pa lalo nung maliit pa lang ang anak namin.  Wala kaming yaya or kasambahay.  Kami kami lang juggling work, house chores and parenthood.

Ngayong pandemic we are solely dependent of single household income.  Sometimes sumasideline ako para magkaron ng pandagdag.  So san nga ba napupunta ang pera namin.

I know madami sa inyo magsasabi na pag aralan ang mga insights ni Mr. Chinkee Tan.  Pero if your resources are limited how are you going to manage?  Yun iba sasabihin magdagdag ng extra income stream? Do you mind if I ask how?  Mag online seller? Saturated na eto and some of them ay natetengga lang ang tinda and not getting the returns.  Mag sari-sari store?  Puro utang yan sa lugar namin.  Magtinda ng kakanin?  Lahat na yata ng household dito sa lugar namin may sariling tinda.  Mag ice candy? Yun mga bata naumay na.

Sa panahon ngayon a decent income to survive daily should be 25k.  What if we fall below that line?  The minimum is at P15k.  How are we going to survive having that much only?  Where ang lahat ng food commodities nagmamahalan?  Hindi naman pwede mag delata at mag noodles na lang palage or our health will suffer.

So tell me mga Sunshine how do you do it?  Kasi ako hindi ko magawa.  I wish I can save for the rainy days pero bago pa man magsweldo ay petsa de peligro na.🥺 

 

Yun iba nakakapagpundar ng bahay, sasakyan at munting negosyo.  I wish ako rin.  Kami rin.. But how?

Hello Sunshine.

Alam naman natin na mahirap kumita ng pera sa panahon ngayon.  Kaliwa't kanan ang gastusin at hindi tayo magkamayaw pagdating ng katapusan ng buwan dahil si billy(bills) at judith (due date) ay nangangatok na naman .  Hay naku talaga.  

Kay laking problema lalo na at wala naman akong hanap buhay na permanente,  Pasalamat na lang ako ako kahit papano ay nalilibang ko ang sarili ko sa pagsusulat ko ng blog na eto at kahit paano ay may returns naman sya kahit barya barya lang.  Ang blog na eto ay may mga affiliates na kung san pag nagjoin kayo or nagclik kayo ay magkakapoints ako or mag i earn ako yun ang tinatawag na passive income na kahit natutulog ka or may iba kang work ay kikita ka pa rin.  Pero hard work kung hard work talaga kasi bago ka kumita ay need ng traffic ng iyong blog or website.  So paano ba tayo magkakaron ng traffic?  Oh di ba kung EDSA lang ang blog ko malamang hayahay na ako.  Halos lahat ng tao ay nasa youtube, twitch, tiktok, instagram at fb.  Bihira na yata ang nagbabasa ng blog ngayon.

Mas gusto ko na etong nagsusulat ako at mas nai express ko ang sarili ko sa pagsusulat.  Napadami na naman ang daldaal ko.

Anyway, ano nga ba ang affiliate marketing?  Hindi naman eto bago at madami na din ang kumita dito.   Eto ay paraan na maipromote ang isang bagay o serbsiyo sa mga tao gamit ang iyong blog, youtube, twitter or instagram at pag may mga tao na bumili ng item na gamit ang link na iyon dun papasok ang kita mo.  Hindi man lahat bumibili at hanggang click lang ayos pa din yun at least may view.

Gaya ng blog ko.  May mga affiliate link eto.  Hoping na isa sa mga araw na eto ay kikita din ako.  Madaming mga websites ang nag ooffer neto.  Mas makakatipid nga naman sila kung mga Influencer, Blogger or Vlogger ang magpromote ng products and services nila kesa sa gma artista na isang ngiti lang ay milyon milyon na.

Keep posted mga sunshine at ipost ko kung saan ako affiliated at ang update kung kumita na ba ako.  Haha.  So far sa adsense pa lang ako nag iearn. I am hoping na makakuha pa ako ng extra raket kasi kailangan ko talaga ng extra income stream.

May mairecommend ba kayo?  Share naman jan!

Maxicare EReady Advance Titanium P2950

 Hello sunshine.

I recently purchased Maxicare EReady Advance Titanium sa kanilang website for my daughter because I want to save ourselves from the headache of going to the ER without money.  Alam naman natin sa sitwasyon ngayon dapat lage tayong handa and since money is one factor na mahirap hanapin at ilabas sa panahon ngayon kaya naisip ko good buy sya just in case kailanganin at least panatag ako na may aakibat sa gastusin namin.  Though di ko sya pinangarap gamitin pero iba pa rin yun may health care assistance lalo na sa panahon ngayon.  Sabi nga nila dapat insurance with health care benefits ang kinuha ko pero di pa stable ang income stream namin.  Tsaka na lang pag stable na kasi mahirap na maipit sa kakabayad ng bills tapos wala naman ako maipambayad. Too bad lang pag ganun lahat ng naipambayad ko will just go down the drain magkakapenalty pa for not completing the contract so opting for a prepaid is the best choice for me.

So ayun na nga mga sunshine Kumuha ako ng Maxicare Eready Advance Titanium worth P2950 sa kadahilanan na eto:

✅up to Php50,000 ER coverage + admission sa regular room, pati laboratories, diagnostic, medicine, Doctor's fee, medicine, IV fluids, Operating Room, ICU, blood products and anesthesia treatment.

✅ ✅ ✅ Good deal di ba? Di lang yun good for 1 year na ang card upon registration.

So eto na.  When I purchased the Maxicare EReady Advance Titanium P2950 through their website.  napaka smooth lang.  Nakarecieve agad ako ng e-mail ng instruction on how to register the reference number they've given.  I follow the instruction and when I key in the reference number ang sabi "the reference number is already registered."  Kumpyansa ako na ok na nga.  I waited for an sms or an e-mail of confirmation about my registration kasi sabi sa website after 24 hours of submitting the registration ay makakatanggap ako ng e-mail or sms together with the e-card.  I've waited and waited and waited.  pero bakit ganun mag 1 week na wala pa din confirmation eh nacharge na ako sa card and yet di pa pala active or confirmed man lang.  Sabi pa ang membership ay magiging active after 7days of confirmed registration.  Eh di nga sila nagpapadala ng e-mail nor sms kung succesful na ba ang pagregister ko so I e-mailed my concern.  Mag 1 month na actually from the date of my purchase and di pa din sila nag e-mail ng confirmation, if the card is active nasan na ang sinasabi nila na within 24 hours??  Ganun ba katagal mag verify?😤 😤 😤 

 

In all fairness to the maxicare offline staff nagrereply naman sila after a few days of my e-mail.  I've sent them a few follow up e-mail and I recieved 3 replies with the same exact words on it, pati tuldok magkakaiba lang ang sender, and magkakaiba ng date sent.  They said they already forwarded my concern to the department who is handling this. Saan na kaya and sino ang in-charge dito? Nagbakasyon ba?  nadaganan ba sya ng sandamakmak na queries?  Bakit nobody is taking in charge of this. But why it's taking them so long para makarespond man lang.  Hahalukayin pa ba sa files nila yun information? Kaya ganun katagal magconfirm??   Pero ang bilis nila magcharge ha nakaltasan na ako for what I purchased from them.  And whoever is responsible for selling that card got their commision already. I know hindi lang ako ang bumili nun at madami silang clients pero it's been a month and I got nothing.  ganun ba katagal magvalidate if the card is registered? Hallooo.. Sana sinabi nyo sa add na it will take forever to validate para di umaasa ang buyer,  Not even a proper response to my query.  It is not proper.  I think every week ako nagpafollow up and every reply I got are all the same which is adding to my frustration.

 

Di po ako naninira.  I purchased to this company dahil may tiwala ako sa kanila but I think they just burned it together with my hard earned money.  I felt robbed sa totoo lang.  After paying it wala na. Tapos na.  Pinag-ipunan ko po yun pera na yun.  Alam naman natin money is hard to come by.  Di ko po balak gamitin ang card na yun.  I bought it for financial assistance in times of need na wag naman na sana and as a customer I want clarity and clarification on your part as a big company na sana kahit small time lang ako eh you're paying attention to your clients.

I even tried calling their hotline 8582-1900 and wanted to talk to an agent but all I got is a drop call.  Nakakafrustrate lang. 😤 😤 Anyway, I hope di ganun kadami ang nasa sitwasyon ko.  I know di naman scammer ang kumpanyang eto and they are one of the biggest company sa Philippines.  They are just very poor in customer care. 😳 Kung alam ko lang that I will be in this kind of situation I would have opted for a different prepaid health care provider.

As a customer I deserve transparency po that is all I want.  MY LINE IS OPEN FOR ANY MAXICARE STAFF OR AGENT REGARDING THIS MATTER.

qUESTION: Did you also buy Maxicare EReady Advance? What is your experience with them?

Price: P2950

Rating: ⭐️ 1 star for poor customer service.

Hello sunshine.

 

 

 

Nung walang humpay ang ulan nagkalagnat🤒 ang anak ko. Nakakatakot talaga lalo na at mataas ang banta ng Covid 19.  Di ko na sya dinala sa Pedia kasi nga mahirap na at baka makasagap pa doon ng sakit.  Una nagkasinat sya at nag tepid sponge bath na ako.  Nung madaling araw na dun na tumaas ang temperature nya nag 38.7 na sya kaya pinainom ko na sya ng Tempra (Paracetamol)  Tapos pinainom ko sya madaming water at pinunasan ko ng malamig na bimpo.  Iyon ang pinaka first na dapat gawin pag naglagnat ang bata.  Punasan ng basang basahan at tuyuin.  Saka suotan ng preskong damit para makalabas ang init ng katawan nya.  Dapat mag 37.8 degrees celcius muna ang temperature bago magpainom ng Paracetamol.  Same applies sa adult.  Di talaga advisable uminom ng Paracetamol ng walang lagnat or pain ang bata or adult.  Tandaan gamot eto at hindi dapat basta basta umiinom o nagpapainom ng gamot.

 

Kinaumagahan nagpunta ako ng drugstore para bumili ng Vivalyte, Tempra (Paracetamol) dahil ubos na ang aming stock at kumuha na din ako ng Tempra Cool Touch for kids dahil mas maigi na iyon kesa sa basang basahan na ilalagay ko sa noo nya. Dahil sa likot ng anak ko eh nadidislodge lang ang bimpo.

pagka uwi ko pinunasan ko ulit sya ng malamig na bimpo at tinuyo. Pinainom ng gamot at vivalyte sabay lagay ng Tempra Cool Touch for kids sa noo nya.  

Product Review: Nagstick naman sya agad pero wala pang 30minutes nadetach na sya ng kusa.  Di ko alam kung ganun ba talaga kasi yun ibang cooling pad na gamit ko noon ay ako mismo nagtatanggal at makapit sa balat pero eto yun pad mismo ang natanggal.  Kaya naglagay na naman ako ng panibago.  So yun lang naman ang feedback ko madali syang matanggal pero it serve its purpose naman. 

Nakagamit na ba kayo neto?  Kumusta naman?

Price: P50.00

Rating: 3 1.2 stars

Where to buy:  Over the counter sa Any drugstore.
