as lucky as ever..i was down with another virus..
pathetic me..
i had fever for 3-4 days..headache..bony + joint pain for days..
then the typical sign of dengue appeared -> petechiae
(petechiae is red spots all over the body caused by ruptured blood vessels..bleeding under the skin..)
so ya..and i knew it..
BINGO..i got another virus multiplying in my body..
went and see doctor twice..took blood samples twice..
but dengue antigen still negative..
doctor not sure what to do with me..
symptoms persist..fever still there..
so i was admitted..
yup..once early of the year..one end of the year..
=.=
diagnosis for admission was rashes for investigation..
multiple blood test was sent..even external blood test for leptospirosis..(my kl house got rats running around..) chikungunya etc were all sent..
(20-30mls of blood taken?huhu..*painful*)
attending doctor thinks i have measles because i had red spots even on my face..not normal for dengue..
and all my dengue blood test were still negative..
so i was transferred to isolation room..again..this time for precaution..
pretty enjoyed my isolation room stay..lolz..
maybe i like to have my own space and silence when i am sick..
was initially in a 4bedded room
(i'm only entitled for 4bedded..FOC medical treatment..i'm thankful..)
the noise from visitors and inconsiderate-not-so-sick patient who were watching dramas with loud speaker can be quite annoying..
so it was blessing in disguise i guess..
though i have ugly swollen face with red spots..
i get to have peace for the whole admission in isolation single bed room..with toilet..
wakakkaa..
anyway..in the end..
i was diagnosed with dengue because of my symptoms and liver function went haywire..
on supplement to protect my liver..sigh..
lucky enough to be discharged on christmas eve..
platelet count picked up and i was allowed to go home..
though i know i am not well yet..
still have nose bleed and petechiae but getting less..
red spots on my legs were as though skin of my soon-going-to-heaven-patients which we call it mottling..
*this is not my leg..* colour was something like this but darker more purplish..o.o
thank God it is now over..
still feel lethargic..but i guess i had enough of sleep..
had 2 days MC after discharged..
used it fully to sleep..basically i was awake like only 8-9 hours for that 2 days..hoho..
even on Christmas..
though i was back in ipoh..but too tired to go out with friends..
not that i have forgotten any of them..
so tempted to go out..but i just cant function like normal..
only went out once for makan with parents..
the rest all at home..
sigh.. >.<
