I am sick again.......this morning, just 10mins before school ends, teacher Mrs Ang noticed that I looked really lethargic. Principal Mrs Tan pulled me out from the school bus, checked on my temp....40 degree and quickly called Mummy. While waiting for Mummy to arrive, Mrs Ang and Mrs Tan sponged me and fed me lotsa plain water. At 11.50am, Mummy reached my school and quickly drove me to a PD in Punggol Plaza.
The PD there gave me a suppository and told me to rest. While going back to the car, I threwed up in the lift....so paiseh. Mummy brought me to the toilet to clean up and quickly drive home. I changed to a new set of clothes and went to sleep straightaway. So tired! No strength at all. Mummy then went back to work and ask Tutti jiejie to check on me every 30mins.
My temp was normal till about 6pm. Temp went up and up and I started shivering too. My lips turned blue, finger tips oso blue. Luckily Daddy and Mummy at home liao and they quickly buddled me up and head straight to KKH Emergency unit. In the car, I threw out again. Once I reached the A&E area, the nurse checked on me and found I was having high-fever at 41.2 but otherwise still alert. They quickly checked me into the red door and the nurses there gave Daddy some wet cloth to sponge me. They told Daddy to give me a shower to bring down my temp and will take a urine sample and blood sample to check for infection. Then, I went to a room and was given another suppository, hmmmm actually is 3 suppositories. One for fever, and two for stopping my vomit.
Then the nurse gave Mummy a cup of glucose water and says to start giving me only 1hr from the insert of the suppository i.e 8.50pm. By then, my fever slowly went down but still at 38.4. So doctor got the nurse to feed me paracetomol as well. And doctor says if I do not bring my temp down at about 9..50pm, then will have to admit me. At 8.50pm, I drank my 1st 15ml of glucose water...Yummy! Then 15mins later, another cup, 15 mins later, another cup, 15mins later, another cup. At 9.40pm, the doctor called us back and checked on my temp and its at 37.1. Great! Can go home but I am on anti-botic. No urinal tract infection, just some really nasty bacterial infection on my throat and told to look out for sore on hand, foot and mouth.
Doctor gave me MC to rest at home.......hmm, cannot go Aunty Steph, Aunty Ros and Darryl's swim class this weekend liao.....Umph!
