Don't know when or where I got this body wrecking virus. I had not been well for 3 weeks already. It started with some sudden pain in the lower back and then spread to other parts of the body. This mysterious pain that comes with no fever or sometimes intermitantly low grade fever renders my body weak and tired. Two weeks ago went to see my rheumatologist and was told nothing to do with my arthritis and was told could be some viral infection.

Last week went to visit my physician in hospital when the pain comes again. Was taken for a blood test for suspected Chickunya, a type of viral infection caused by mosquito bites. The result came out negative and he just said the pain was due to my rheumatoid. What the heck! I just kept quiet and 2 days ago I woke up with a sore throat and it caused some irrritating cough. Worried I could get another infection went to see a clinic doctor. The nice doctor was on leave and instead a young doctor took his place. He did not even check me properly and just said its nothing serious and gave me some cough mixture , and few soothing pastilles for the throat. Guess its nothing serious huh? as news of HiNi has faded away. I came home sick as ever waiting for the virus to take its course wrecking my whole body. I have some aching body, some nasal congestion, some nasal discharged, coughing out some yellowish sputum today letting my immune system fight the virus. I gargle my throat with some salt solution and its not sore today. Hopefully will be better in a few days.
