Hello my dear friends…
How do we usually spend our weekend? Obviously, being hospitalized is not one of the plan, ever. In this post, i will share about my activity started from last weekend. I was sick, have a stomachache and high fever for around 5-6 days. Its quite long time for a fever. Yet, i paid no mind to it because i used to have a running fever for almost 2 months. It was happened 7 years ago. It was also happened because i had too much stress on me and it affect my physical health too. That is something very usual for me since i was young. Whenever i had stress, i will get some kind of sickness. Most of the it was just fever. I thought this time was the same. Getting close to my wedding date put some kind of stress on my mind. That was until in one lively Saturday night, i feel like i almost died. I was sleeping in my mother’s room, it was midnight when i woke up. I woke up feeling something i had never experienced before. My body is cold, i dont have energy, i feel the life slipping away from me. I fought hard to stay conscious because i am so scared of what can possibly happen if i close my eyes. I felt that my body went into shock, its shaking uncontrollably. I felt a lot of pain in my life before but that one is my first experience. Its not the pain that scares me because the pain is very minimum. Its the helplessness and darkness that keep lurking around trying to take me away, its so scary.
My family rushed me to the nearest hospital. I was hooked with Iv immediately. The nurse also took my blood as soon as i was laid in the emergency room. One hour later, the doctor came and told me that i had a dengue fever. My platelets was in 30.000 while the normal person have around 150.000 platelets. I was in a worrying state and in need of a care immediately. It was Saturday night and i dont know what happened in the weekend because the hospital was packed with people. It makes me wondering. What makes hospital is so packed in the weekend? Is it normal or is that only that hospital? I needed to wait for 2 hours till i can finally get a room for myself. In that room, i need to share it with one other people. I feel so bad for my mother whom always be with me during my stay in hospital. I ended up stayed there for 5 days and my mom stayed with me during all of those nights. She must sleep in just a bed cover. It must be very uncomfortable. I feel bad all the time and all i want is just to get healthy so my mother doesnt have to have a hard time anymore.
I am home now even if i am not totally healthy yet. I feel better in the comfort of my home and when i can be around my family all the time. This dengue fever makes my skin looks so weird. Its red all over i feel like a crab. I wish that i can get a full recovery as soon as possible. Please take care of your health guys.
