I'm admitted to hospital!

Last night I was admitted to hospital here in Kuantan after vomiting 4 times and having some sort of seizure. My arms went all stiff and numb and I couldn't stop shaking.

It sounds bad right? Thankfully the ambulance didn't take too long to arrive!

I've been diagnosed with food poisoning and severe dehydration. I am currently lying here on my hospital bed, receiving my 5th sodium chloride drip.

It's working because I already feel so much better than yesterday and the specialist said I can be discharged tomorrow!

Most of all, I have been overwhelmed with messages of support from my friends on facebook, and I appreciate every single person who has wished me well in my recovery (and a happy birthday!) That's right, it's my birthday today too!

I hope to return to blogging as quickly as possible!

  4. Bet your little girls are missing you, Duncan (and Fidelia too of course!!). So sorry to hear about this. It must have been quite frightening at the time, I would think. Such a pity that it's your birthday as well. Happy Birthday Duncan and GET WELL SOON! X

  7. Be careful with outside food since you are not a local and your body might not have the antibody for common bacteria where local don't have a problem with.
    Our body needs time to adjust too.
