Love Your Kidneys!

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim..

LOVE. YOUR. KIDNEYS.

Just yesterday, I found 2 patients died because of chronic kidney disease (CKD), in ONE day. Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun.. CKD is such a complicated disease that can involve all organs, from head to toe, and lead to death instantly.

Patient usually shows no symptoms until the severe stage. Because you know, our kidneys love us just too much that they will try hard to compensate until 3/4 part of them broke down.

So starting from now, would you please love them back? Simply by drinking plenty of water (2L per day) and observe your urine. If your urine is clear, you're good. But if it is yellowish brown, please please please drink more. Ah, and don't drink any energy drink, coffee, or tea too often because mineral water is your kidneys' BFF.

Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are two biggest enemy for your kidneys. Detect them early and put your shield on! What shield you ask? Lifestyle it is. Healthy diet, no smoking, regular exercise, and hakuna matata! Please tell this to your beloved ones.

Love your kidneys and be healthy! :)

“Take advantage of five matters before five other matters:

your youth, before you become old;

and your health, before you fall sick;

and your richness, before you become poor;

and your free time before you become busy;

and your life, before your death.”

(HR. Ibnu Abbas)

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim..

Hari ini beberapa pengumuman bikin saya joget gila terdiam. Hari pertama masuk stase interna (penyakit dalam), saya harus nerima kenyataan kalo lagi-lagi saya di tempatin di Banyumas, Jawa Tengah. Yang biasanya interna di sana cuma 4 minggu, kelompok saya dapet 6 minggu. Kejadiannya mirip waktu obsgyn, dimana biasanya disana cuma 4 minggu, eh kelompok saya dapet 10 minggu! 2,5 kali lipat, hell yeah.

Akhirnya, kelompok saya jadi kelompok interna pertama sejak Indonesia merdeka (hiperbolis tentu saja) yang ditempatin 6 minggu. Dan kelompok interna pertama sepanjang sejarah yang ga dapet jatah jagum (jaga umum). Kalo kalimat kedua, saya yakin fakta haha.. Saya mau jagum. Jagum itu artinya jaga bangsal penyakit dalam di Sardjito, 7 x 24 jam nonstop. Kata orang, jagum itu 'jiwa'nya interna. Kalo belom jagum belom interna, endesbre endesbre.. Ah. :(

Saya efektif ditempatin di Banyumas dari 12 Agustus-22 Oktober. Padahal 19-22 Oktober saya ada acara di Jogja. Bukan, bukan lamaran atau nikah atau yang sejenisnya. Hahaha. Ceritanya, (alhamdulillah) saya kepilih untuk bawain 1 oral presentation di The 6th Asia Pacific Conference on Reproductive and Sexual Health and Rights. Awalnya ragu karena conference fee-nya 3 jeti bok. Terus saya apply semacam scholarship, dan pengumumannya baru saya baca tadi: saya insyaAllah bisa dapet scholarshipnya!! Alhamdulillah kan.. Saya udah ngimpi dari dulu buat ikut konferensi internasional.. Saya pernah apply dua kali sebelum ini, cuma baru rejeki sekarang.. Tapi tanggalnya itu lho.

Ya udah, ijin aja nin koasnya bentar. Gitu aja kok repot.

Iya. InsyaAllah. Pengumumannya dateng makblek satu hari, jadi rada rebek gini eke mikirnya, haha. Doain saya ya temen2.. Semoga ga dipersulit perizinannya, saya bisa ngasih presentasi yang bagus, dan dunia per-koas-an makin mantab jaya! Buat yang terakhir jangan sampe keseleo bacanya ya :p

Semoga urusan2 kalian juga lancar dan berkah yaa. All the best for us!
