MC Again

I somehow scratched my right eye last Tuesday morning, and couldn't go to work. My good eye specialist, Dr. Dunstan Fernandez wasn't in that day, so I could only make an appointment on Wednesday morning. Thank God I had some spare antibiotic ointment and 1 final eye patch. By Tuesday evening, the eye patch was out, but I'm not taking any chances, so visited the Doc the next morning. So last week I was on MC on Tuesday and Wednesday.

This Monday morning, I woke up to a call from work, and went back to snooze a little. But the pain came back. I thought sleeping it out would work, but by noon, it was still lingering, and I had to patch myself into a pirate again. Or as my mom calls it, a one-eyed-monster. My wife says its coz I was too tired from washing the car. Haha...

Its Monday night, I'm feeling much better, but everyone said to see the doctor tomorrow. Well, we'll see.

I'm sick and tired...

I really am sick and tired:


At the clinic near office, temperature was 37.9, now its at 38.1. These are my symptoms doctor:
- tired. Yawning alot today, even though had 7 hours sleep
- pain in the headm especially when I cough/any action that impacts the head
- gassy tummy... my wife had to endure this one. I drank some super KAU ginger juice and ate prunes yesterday. *poot*poot*
- loss of appetite. ate very little lunch today
- joints pain
- muscle pain
- Intermittant running nose. NEVER prolonged.
- Loss of focus on using the laptop.Thats strange, coz I still can type this blog post out! Maybe its only for work related matters =D

The extra-ordinarily nice and professional lady doctor checked my temperature, tummy and blood pressure. The usual viral fever with active gas in the tummy. No anti-biotics, but a return visit is scheduled on Wednesday morning, coz of the rising cases in DENGUE. I won't be surprised, as mosquitoes have been busy invading our house for the last few weeks. Btw, I had a friedn who died of DENGUE when we were only 15. A moment of silence for Maurice Kok. You are fondly remembered.

Driving home was more difficult than normal. Engine died at the traffic light once (don't worry, this is the Kancil). Anyway, i'm home safe, and waiting for my wife to pamper me tonight.

Do have a read on DENGUE and CHIKUNGUNYA.

Anyone of you who says I'm sick coz of the DIY car wash, will be virtually shot dead. Virtual killing is not a crime.
