As suggested by the title,the answer is YES. I got dengue fever. The area around my neighborhood is a red spot.
On Friday,I was feeling extremely uncomfortable and I couldn't wait for marketing to end because I have a horrible migraine. I thought it's pretty normal because Marketing always seems to give me a headache. However,it got worst in the late afternoon when I was drenched on my way to the MRT station.
I went out that day and had dinner with NPL as I thought it will pass.
My fever refuse to subside and I went to see my family doctor on Sunday. He told me it might be a case of dengue as I have no cough and flu. I had instructions to head to the hospital on Tuesday if it had not subside till then.
I would wake up everyday around dawn with a horrendous migraine and my fever which subsided will raise back.
On Tuesday late afternoon,I went to KTPH A and E. My fever hadn't subside and I waited for hours and hours before the proper treatment. It was air-conditioned and it was very cold for me. Kaifeng came down to keep me company and bring me food. I had blood test and the doctor put me on drip and gave me fever medicine.
I was actually suppose to meet Shahira and Zaidi for a movie but we ended up meeting in KTPH instead. Zaidi was there for his internship interview.
I was out of KTPH around 9plus. Blood palette was around 138. It dropped to 124 yesterday when I visited the doctor yesterday. Bounced back to 160 today. No more fever and discomfort yay :-)
The worst part of dengue is the itch,it can really make you go crazy! Furthermore,my skin feels super sandy and red!
BIG THANKYOU to Yunxuan for accompanying me to the polyclinic yesterday and Kaifeng for coming down on Tuesday and waking up early today just to accompany me hehe.
Thanks all for your concern and let's fight the mosquitos together! Do your part by removing all sources of stagnant water! If you notice any rashes on your body and have prolonged fever,please visit a doctor immediately!
