Recovering...

I have been ill the whole of last week. Started with fever on Sunday, 5 Jun, afternoon. Went to see doc on Monday morning and was given medical leave to rest. By Monday night, fever climbed to 39.5 deg C. Parents drove me to TTSH A&E and noted that the wait was gonna be 4 hours. Detoured back to Hougang 24h clinic for an injection and more medication. Doc was unable to tell wat was causing the fever cos there's no sore throat, no cough and no sign of any infection (possibly internal?). Got medical leave to rest at home on Tuesday.

By Wednesday, fever was still hovering around 38 to 39 deg C. Parents got worried. Dad commented that it could be some chinese condition called "mor dang". Mum rubbed a hardboiled egg over my body. The yolk had some hairy stuff, confirming it's "mor dang". Parents then drove me to a chinese sinseh for consultation. Was given another 2 days of medical leave to rest.

By Thursday morning, chest started to ache everytime I eat, drink or take a deep breath. Went into the office, thinking that I will be able to function. Ended up leaving the office at around 12pm. Went home to rest. By Friday, the chest pain was getting worse and mum brought me to the polyclinic, thinking of getting a chest X-ray. Doc explained that it should be heartburn. Gave me medicine and medical leave to rest at home. The weekend went by peacefully, consuming pills after pills.

Today, the chest felt better. Decided to cancel my leave and come into the office. Missed out on a whole week. Tonnes of catching up to do.

But then again, I'll be on leave from this Friday, 17 June, to next Thursday, 23 June...

Hahahahahahahahaha...
