chicken pox...

Alas.... i have chicken pox!!!!!... my whole family had suffered from this so-called dreadful and memorable disease during their childhood days except my younger brother had escaped from it with his powerful antibodies in his body from his immunization.

Not sure where i got it from but i think i was infected during my trip to johor bahru(JB)...arghhh..... sure someone from the bus had it and havent fully recovered from it and with his unscrupulous act spreading this infectious disease in the bus.

Well, my symptoms was atypical. I have no sore throat, no fever, no lethargy and was overly active the whole day. I had realized there was 2 vesicles over the my jaw line on sunday morning in my uncle house in singapore and i squeezed it out with my itchy hands, thinking was a pimple... and during the noon, while bathing, realized there were 3 red dots over my stomach thinking they were normal heaty rash...

At midnight, upon reaching my youngest uncle's house in JB, found out that one of the rashes in my stomach become vesicle and went straight and phoned my xiaojie about it and guess what he replied me...

xiaojie:..aiya ... u suspect got chicken pox.... you only had 24 hours to reduce the vesicles before it starts popping out your whole body and your face later... after that... if it happens... dont cry later!!!!!

me:... then wat happen to my face... i squeezed it out le...

xiaojie:... why you so stupid???.... cannot differentiate between pimples and chicken pox ar!!!.. now..... those will become scars!!!!!!!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.... why so itchy hand??!!!

me:... ggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr( felt like scratching his face!!!!)

xiaojie advised me to see the doctor at once to get the medication and the following day, will bring me to see my senior who is a medical officer in GH Melaka to get free medication....

fortunately, i took the medication earlier and there were less than 20 vesicles on my body. Thanks to the HIGH DOSE OF ACICLOVIR(medication for chicken pox)..

now u see it...















now u dont!!!...
