Re: Dengue hemorrhagic fever
It's like tripping for four days. Need a piss but pretty sure you will actually have to crawl to the toilet? Have the strength to stand but fear you will pass out and hurt yourself when falling? Yeah, just like the flu.

Re: Dengue hemorrhagic fever
A friend had dengue in Malaysia. He drank 100plus, an isotonic sports drink. He was sure it helped. He did get better quickly. If not available here should be something similar around.Barang chgout wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 7:08 pm Be really careful with fluid levels. Had degue before but none of that rash/ bruising. Overhydration is apparently a risk.

Re: Dengue hemorrhagic fever
I had regular degue a few years back and had to be taken to the nearest "hospital".
Chantrea Poly Clinic in Steung Meanchey. Its a dirty ass khmer style hospital but they knew how to treat some dengue with the quickness.
The best part was the bill. 24 hours in the place, constant IVs and probably 5kg worth of God knows what pills - $67
Khema is great and I use them for my kids but I don't have enough self respect to spend that much cash on myself.

Re: Dengue hemorrhagic fever
Cambodian are surprisingly good at fixing the problems they see all the time like broken bones, malaria and so on. The problem is they are not that good at diagnosing anything unusual. The pills were probably vitamin pills, they like them. Don't know what to prescribe then 2 random antibiotics, a paracetamol and 3 million vitamin pills for the sweetie jarlostjeremy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 9:06 pm I had regular degue a few years back and had to be taken to the nearest "hospital".

Re: Dengue hemorrhagic fever
Are you ok this morning????username wrote: ↑Fri Jan 12, 2018 6:23 pm Thank you for your responses, everyone. My appointment tomorrow is with Dr. Scott.
As I'm not in pain and I don't have fever anymore, I don't mind waiting until tomorrow, if it's considered safe to do so.
I'm in my mid twenties, and shouldn't be in the risk group of dengue shock / hemorrhagic fever.
I've been looking at pictures online now of rash and bruises related to dengue fever, and both my rash and bruises look a lot milder. I'm starting to feel like I might have been scaring myself a little too much. Will be nice to see a doctor tomorrow anyway, just to be on the safe side.
The funny thing is that I wasn't at all worried while the fever was still going strong. It was first when I felt better, got rashes and bruises I started to worry when I read things like:
"The more severe symptoms of dengue hemorrhagic fever often develop after you start to recover from the dengue virus."
What time is appointment?
