I told myself that this is the worst season to get a flu, but still I caught it. My boyfriend would have many naggy things to say about that, but he himself is sick (i think from my germs) oops!
anyway, I went to the clinic and here’s what I found out from the doctor:
1. There is no way to differentiate the symptoms of the usual flu from swine flu.
2. People who have contracted H1N1 may NOT run a fever, ie, not running a fever is not a good enough sign that you have not contracted the virus
3. The doctor advises to only do a test if one experiences body aches.
In conclusion, he told me not to be at crowded, enclosed areas for prolonged periods, in case I really got H1N1. Crowded, enclosed area for prolong period unfortunately sounds like SOT.. So he gave me 3 days MC. oh well..I hope I get well before the 3 days is up, because I don’t want to be away from SOT for so long!!

oh there is actually a way to find out if you’re H1N1 positive, just run a test at TTSH and you would get the results immediately ^^.
Whether its H1N1 or not, you still need plenty of water and rest, rest well ya ^^
