Ivana Alawi shared in her vlog about her recent hospitalization due to serious health issues, including complications with her ovaries and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).
During her stay, she experienced intense pain and fluid buildup in her abdomen, which made it difficult for her to breathe.
Ivana stated : “Feeling ko, nagpaalam pa nga ako sa mama ko tapos feeling ko talaga it is really my second life,
“May problem ako sa ovaries and that’s how it started. And I also have PCOS, doon siya nagsimula.” She added.
Ivana stressed the importance of seeking medical help when experiencing symptoms, emphasizing that her condition could have worsened if she hadn’t gone to the hospital.
“Huwag niyong antayin na lumala…kasi the earlier, the better, siguro kung hindi ako pumunta ng ospital, baka wala na ako dito. Ganung level.
“Hindi ko nga iniisip kung paano ‘yung savings ko, paano ‘yung mga properties tapos more of kung paano ‘yung family ko,
“So ayun, pinasok nila ‘yung tube and they started to drain. Tapos meron daw two liters [‘yung fluid]. Pinu-push na ‘yung lungs ko that’s why nahihirapan na akong [huminga],
“Pati ‘yung bladder ko, wala nang lumalabas na ihi, and then ‘yung heart ko masyado nang mabilis ‘yung tibok and hindi na rin ako nakaka-poops. Lahat naipit na sa body ko, so nagkaroon ako ng doktor sa puso, doktor sa lungs, doktor sa gastro, doktor sa nephro, lahat na ng doktor.
“Imagine, one week akong walang ligo. Sa buong buhay ko, never ko ginawa ‘yun,” She explained.
Besides recounting her experience, Ivana announced that the profits from her vlog would be donated to a national hospital, aiming to help those who cannot afford medical care.
She also called for improvements in healthcare services and received supportive messages from her fans, who admired her generosity even in difficult times.
