Suspected H1N1

Yesterdae after my lunch break, my throat start to feel itchy and couldn't stop coughing. Had an early rest cos i'm not feeling well but still before i slept, i managed to wait for Baby's call :) Baby actually dun wan to call me cos he said i naughty for not taking good care of myself when he is not around :( sorry!

and....today i need to help out at Orchid Country Club for Scholarship and Education Grant award. When i woke up, i had a high ever of 38.5 degree Celsius. My parents asked me not to go work and visit a doctor but i dun wish to cos i scared too last min my supervisor would not be happy. So i took a bathe and ate panadol before i left home. On the way to meet my other colleagues at Yishun Mrt Station, i bought strepsils to stop my cough. My fever started to subside as i perspired alot. Having a 1 hour break, i went to play bowling with my colleagues :x

After the panadol has no more effect, my fever came back and i felt feverish. I quickly informed my supervisor and went back home. When i reached home, took temperature (38.8 degree Celsius) and ate a panadol before went to the 24hour clinic. My temperature was 39.1 degree Celsius when i reached clinic. I was given a mask to wear. Conversation between doc and me... ...

Doctor: u have a fever is due to flu.
Me: Is it H1N1?
Doctor: 50-50. cos u have all the H1N1 sympton.
Me: *worried expression*
Doctor: but dun worry too much, even is really H1N1 u also cannot do anything. If after 3 days ur fever still have not subside, or at anytime u suddenly feel weak or having difficulty in breathing, come back straight to the clinic.
Doctor: At home if got younger siblings, dun stay close with them. Stay in a room and open the window.
Me: Okie. Thanks doctor.

When i reached home, i did not dare to stay near my siblings. Ate medicine, wore mask and slept without switching on the fan cos i wants to make myelf perspire. Sms-ed Baby and told him my condition. Had fish porridge for my dinner.

I promised him that i will get well by tml so that i can fetch him from pasir ris inter and stayed at his place, if not i must stay at home and rest. I go sleep le, good night everyone!
