Sick

My little one had high fever last Saturday midnight, so we brought him to Mount Alvernia 24hrs clinic to see doctor. We were told by the doctor that it might be stomach flu as he also had diarrhoea.

Later on Sunday afternoon, his fever shot up to 40 degrees and we hurried him down to KK children emergency clinic. There the doctor diagnosed that he was infected by a virus which caused the high fever and diarrhoea.

Poor boy, he was crying most of the time especially when we wanted to feed him medicine. His bum was all red and swollen from the constant diarrhoea. He cried everytime he poo poo. I had no choice but to took leave on Monday and Tuesday to look after him.

His fever subsided on Monday but his diarrhoea continued. Until today he still poo poo 6 to 8 times a day. We shall see how is his condition tomorrow before deciding whether to bring him back to the doctor.

Anyway we were relieved that he is back to his normal cheeky boy self, just hope that his diarrhoea will go away soon.
