Sick twice in a month’s time
This must be a record for me. Never have I experienced fever twice in such a short time frame. I had finished the course of antibiotic as told by the doctor previously. So why am I still down with fever again, accompanied by running nose and cough?
The weather could be the cause of the fever. The weather has been changing rapidly from sunny to raining every other day here in Penang. But I have been able to adapt to such weather changes before. Is my body getting weaker as I grow older? Is my antibody in my immune system not good enough to fight against virus and bacteria.
I guessed I only have myself to blame. The reason? Well, I allowed myself to eat dinner buffet at Traders hotel on Friday even though I was feeling a bit unwell. It was a quarterly event organised by my department. I just couldn’t resist the temptation of eating the RM88 buffet. The food is nice and all, but is it worth it in return of being sick? This is something for me to consider in the future.
So here I am now nursing the fever over the weekend, hoping to be recovered by Monday for work. The pills are kicking in now and I’m feeling drowsy. Signing off…
