Yes you heard what I said, I got dengue for the past few days, this is why I couldn't update the blog. On Friday(30/6/08) my condition was just bad and no one knows it was dengue, we(my family) all thought it was just fever. We went to see Clinic, the doctor said it was not dengue but if the fever didn't go down after 2 days then you should have a blood test.

So the day I was emitted into Tong Shin hospital was Tuesday(3/6/08) due to I keep vomiting and no appetite. My mom took me into Tong Shin, 6am.....

There was no "real" doctor except "dressa"(don't know how to spell) to check on me. After that she asked me to go for a blood test, a pinch on my finger and they got the result. The "dressa" wants me to open my mouth widely but my throat was burning like hell and it's killing me eventhough I was trying to open my mouth as wide as I could.....

After that, admission-who-in-charge told me there is no 4 bedded room available so we're forced to take single bedded room(RM220). Whatever because I had no more energy to argue all I want is a room and plug me with glucose bottle.

It is so suffering, keep on vomiting, every smell that is not suitable to me I will vomit, can't even consume food for every food I ate it just vomit out..... so at 10am the "real" doctor came and check on me, he just touch here and there then conclude I had dengue. Wait for another part because I am tired typing now......Sorry....

I will type out the rest of the part soon after I am not that tired =)

i hope u r feeling better. did u claim from insurance?

Congratulations on being a victim of one of the world's emerging infectious diseases. I remember studying it in several of my classes. Fun stuff. Gotta love those Flaviviridae and all the maladies they cause. I hope you found the mosquito that bit you and smashed it. Ah, well, the good news is that classical cases of dengue fever last only about a week. The bad news is that the fever typically spikes towards the end of the disease right before it ends.

On a more serious note, I'm glad they finally figured out what was wrong, and I hope you're doing better!
