Sick at the wrong time

These two days, the little fish in our aquarium and myself have fallen ill. I think the little fish looked more sick than me. Sometime i wonder, are we lacking pet supplies for fishes? If not, why do my fishes fall sick so often?

I woke up with a really painful sore throat and a stuffy nose yesterday morning. The first thought that came to my mind is — is it H1N1? I started blaming those people who sneeze and cough in front of me in the trains and buses. Inconsiderate freaks. But of course we can’t control such people from being selfish. just blame it on my luck.

Although i am encouraged to go KKH for symptoms of flu, i decided to drop by my GP just downstairs. What for risking and exposing myself to the real H1N1 virus at the hospital right? Especially when nothing is confirmed yet.

The first thing the GP told me in the face was: girl, u r in the high risk group. If fever starts, i will have to go KKH. >_<

I am glad she has given me 2 days of MC. All the sleep and medicine keeps all active activities at bay. I can’t think straight and my head was whirling quite badly. My supportive hubbie takes initiatives to clean up the kitchen after the meal as well as to hang out all washed clothes from the washing machine. :)

Hope i will get well soon….

We hare are told NOT to go to the doc or ER, but to stay at home and call the doc.
Because when you visit the waitingroom and doc you will infect others.
