Happy New Year (Not)

I'm back, ketchup!

Well, not quite. I still feel a little weak and a bit slow.

I contracted dengue. I never thought I would get it, not in a million years. Kasi nga swerte ako. LOL. But around two weeks ago, I thought it was just a simple case of fever and flu. Mommy wanted to take me to the hospital but I declined cos 1) I really thought it was nothing serious, and 2) I fear hospital bills. I only acquiesced after three days when I had a temperature reading of 40 degrees Centigrade at ayaw ko naman makumbulsyon. So yeah, I had dengue. And the early onset of shingles. And bacterial infection in my throat. Minsan lang ako ma-ospital pero nag-shopping muna ako ng sakit. But I also see this hospitalization as a blessing in disguise. If it weren't for dengue, the early onset of shingles on my scalp wouldn't have been detected and might have worsened (similar to my dad's condition).

So I'm still recovering. Much better now than when I got discharged. Naisip ko nga baka nag-iinarte lang ako ha pero turned out that I'm not yet a 100% plus because of the dengue coupled with the heavy MF at that time, I'm a little anemic these days.

So there.
