An unpleasant experience - part 2
An unpleasant experience - part 2
Well, I thought what I had written previously signalled the end of my "H1N1" experience, until I had more "torturous" moments and battles with this stubborn virus.
Most of the time, we should be fine after seeing the GP for once, if not twice. This stubborn virus somehow simply refuse to let go and get out of my body. When my flu symptom and cough had shown improvement, I was plagued with fever the following 2 nights when I slept. I didn't exactly measure myself with the thermometer, but I knew the fever was fairly high - to the extent that I had to apply a towel onto my forehead.
Twin advised me to get a check-up at the hospital when I messaged her about my condition - she said from the looks of the symptoms, it could be bacteria pneumonia. WOW, this would be serious and bad - and can really become life-threatening if not treated on time.
Morning came and as a safety precaution, I called for an ambulance to send me to the hospital. I was prepared to be warded already but after an x-ray which shows my lungs clear of infection, the doctor sent me back home with more medication and MCs.
Looking back at the last 10 days, I really see the hand of God moving and protecting me from developing into a more serious and unthinkable condition. I saw the prayers from lots of friends and loved ones that had also been a shield around me. It was an unpleasant experience to begin with, but yet a "good" experience for me to be reminded of who my God is, and also to help me better identify with people and understand what they are going through when they are battling with agonizing ailments in their bodies.
I'm well and whole by the grace of God, and back to work afresh and anew!! Hallelujah! =)
