Time flies

Gosh... It's been a week! How fast!

My hubby will be back Tmr 6am. I will be gone later...

Going back to my mum's place to avoid him for a week :X

Waiting for someone to fetch me home later upon my request. Dunno wat time though.

Anyway, I was sick since thursday. Very slight sore throat only... rather it's discomfort on the neck, then shoulder ache, then VERY bad headache... After tt felt feverish, but not caught by thermal scanner/ thermometer. Felt better after self-medication in office. Then, Extremely weak after I got home in the evening... Confirm fever in the next morning on my conventional thermometer. Reported sick on fri...

Went to a GP... The infrared sensor forehead thermometer is SOOO Inaccurate. My temp was 36.8. I was surprised but thought maybe my fever subsided. Reported my temp to my office happily. However, later, when I was in the room with the doctor, his Ear thermometer indicated 38.3. -..- Well, not my problem rite... It's their inconsistency, or rather the thermometers... His attitude really cannot make it lah. Anyway, maybe doc r now very stressed due to H1N1 lah. Nvm. Hmm.. come to think of it, I was the one who told him I got fever in the morning after he said 'no fever rite?', then he checked again. Shld appreciate my honestly mah. :P

I do not know what's my diagnosis till now... and i think the doc does not know too. No runny nose and cough confused his assessment I guess. Kept asking me abt H1N1 thingy... Probably bec his clinic is H1N1 pandemic ready, and also bec I work in a hospital setting. Everytime I told him 'not tt I know of', he will reply 'even if hv u also dunno'. Fine Fine... I very guai replied him 'YES! PRECISELY!'... -..- Think he was pretty pissed off by my reply. haha. But well, his 'attitude' face is really unforgettable too. Oh, I was given 3 days mc. Fri, Sat, Sun... but... I dun work on Sat and Sun! haha. anyway, I was supposed to stay at home lah... meaning not to expose myself to others due to the pandemic. No one is sure what I'm carrying until I develop other symptoms or until i'm well. So, i shall guai guai stay at home. The 2 clinic assistants were later called into the room... then one came out to ask me for my occupation, later the other asked me to fill up the H1N1 survey form while giving me my medication. No one in the clinic was given 'this kind' of attention. =.=


Slept like a log from thurs evening till today... Yeah, I was practically sleeping the whole day yesterday. Woke up in the late morning to see doc, and late evening to eat and take medications... then slp again.

Felt slightly better now... Awake frm 12pm till now... 3 hrs! Break record liao. haha. but then i think i need to slp again. The drowsiness is making me uncomfortable.

I have never felt sooo Weak before... Even No Energy to walk lor. Sigh. Sick with no significant symptoms somemore... Duh...

*** I finally true-ly understand the frustration of not knowing the diagnosis yet feeling Sooo Unwell. It can drive u crazy. And I know y some pple will want to try doing Insane stuff juz to seek more medical Attention. Don't scold them lah... They r desperate pple... esp when they r not old enough to understand and not so educated like you lor.
