What's Going On

Where do I even begin to explain? So much has happened in the past two weeks that I don't even know where to start or how to start. I've even thought about not explaining at all but I know I owe it to my readers to explain where I've been and what I'm planning to do next.

First of all, the biggest reason for my absence is the fact that I was hospitalized last week due to Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever Grade 2 with Hepatic Involvement. Where exactly I got the dengue, I really don't know. All I know is I had one helluva time confined at the hospital with my IV and medications. I was rushed to the hospital last June 14, 2013 at around 11:30pm and was admitted on June 15, 2013 at around 3 in the morning. I tell you, it's one of the worst things that has ever happened to me. Nurses shouldn't be the ones getting admitted, "diba?". But there I was, at 3 in the morning, crying like a baby after the initial dose of IV paracetamol and ketorolac (pain killer).

At first my attending physicial Dr. A. diagnosed me with Cystitis because my chief complaint was really painful urination, nausea and high grade fever. It was only after five days that I was then diagnosed with Dengue by a second physician, Dra. M. A. So there I was battling both cystitis and dengue. What could be worse? Right?
Eventually, after more than a week in the hospital, I was sent home last June 22, 2013 with a follow up check up schedule and more medication.

As I'm typing this out, it's June 27, 2013 and I only have a few days left with my lil sister and dad before they fly back to Singapore. I don't think I have to explain that I'll be blogging infrequently from this point on. I'd like to spend what little time I have left with my family.

I'll be back soon, I promise!


PS : I chopped off my hair. :)
