h1n1

16Aug09

So long I didn’t update my blog, then the next post is about h1n1, shocking huh, lol..

h1n1 day 1 – Almost impossible to write anything. Suga-san from the hostel office took me to a clinic nearby and I was diagnosed with A type influenza but they will test further to see whether is it h1n1, and the result would be announced a day later. I slept all evening. Later I am transferred to a special room at the 1^st floor, completed with shower room and toilet, ‘ quarantined’ …haha..my 3 meals per day will be prepared by my friends, mainly Yow Keong. Thanks a lot..:) Got the feeling I just sit here waiting to be fed everyday .. ;p

h1n1 day 2 – Body temperature from 38.6 to 37.2, almost normal temperature. Feel much better. Well, I still thought I was A type influenza until 10.30am, when I received a phone call telling me actually what I got is new type influenza, h1n1. Shocked. But then she told me just continue with the current medication will do, and will heal in another 4 days. And since I feel all right now, I guess I am on fast track towards recovery. Whew, today is the day I supposed to be on Mount Fuji, I guess, plan again next year.

Thanks for caring notes from friends and family. I’m fine..:)

And that night body temperature down to 36.6

h1n1 day 3 – Feeling almost the same as day 2, morning body temperature was 37.0 but I guess its ok, I ‘m sure it will go down in the evening.

Yes I was right and the temperature never went over 37.0 even once since then.

I was quarantined from 11 to 16 August and the 3 days above was the first 3 days. The second half 3 days were B.E.S.T – Bed, Eat, Sleep, TV.

I’m really relieved and thankful that the virus didn’t struck me hard, and I didn’t suffer much, plus I was under good care of Suga-san and my friends here, which made the quarantined days much easier.

Now the last day of the quarantine period, this room has became my comfort nest, and it does take some courage to think that I have to leave tomorrow for internship,lol…

And ya, last week i went to a fireworks display in Tokyo, click here to view my facebook album on this fireworks.
