This time even need to admit into hospital.
Mommy brought 弟弟 to see paediatric on Thursday night due to fever and cough.
Doctor prescribed some medicine for him and advise mommy if 弟弟 didn't recover after 3 days, we have to bring 弟弟 back to see doctor.
弟弟 didn't see any sign of recovery after 3 days. He started to have running nose on Friday. He can't finish his milk on Saturday morning and he never take any milk after that. He also doesn't want to take water.
We purposely went to afternoon market to buy mee hoon soup and papaya for 弟弟 since he didn't take milk. Mommy also cooked instant noodles for him (this is one of his favorite food).
However, 弟弟 still did not want to take any of those. This has made mommy worry as he didn't eat anything for almost a day.
On Saturday midnight, 弟弟 still fever. He vomited after took the medicine. It's 3am midnight, mommy planned to send 弟弟 to hospital and she started to pack and tried to wake me up.
However, 弟弟 temperature getting down to normal at that moment. After discussed, mommy decided to wait for few more hours and we will send 弟弟 to hospital early morning.
We reached hospital at 8am, however we only able to see doctor at 9:10am.
After explained all the details to doctor, we were advised to admit 弟弟 into hospital as worry he will dehydrated. Doctor also suggested to do some blood test to confirm his illness. Mommy request to test for H1N1 as well.
However, there was no ward available at that moment and we have to wait till 2pm.
Mommy and 弟弟 stayed in the waiting area and 弟弟 started to have medicine treatment and put him on the
glucose drip.
弟弟's ward. Mommy slept on that long chair.
Blood test result showed fever due to normal virus, not H1N1.
However, 弟弟 temperature still can't get down.
Maintain at level 38'c even after PCM. Doctor suspected Dengi and requested to test again on blood. Result showed it was not Dengi. Doctor started to use antibiotic after that.
On Tuesday morning, Doctor suspected lung infection and requested 弟弟 to do x-ray for confirmation. Yes, X-ray result showed some minor infection on lung. So, 弟弟 have to take another type of antibiotic.
Poor 弟弟, photo taken on monday.
弟弟 started to recover on Tuesday afternoon, after started the antibiotic treatment.
Able to play with his toy, able to smile...mommy said 弟弟 didn't smile for the past few days.
Wonder how he knew that switch is for TV as he was really sick for last few days.
Didn't know that he notice we on and off the TV.
Luckily 弟弟 was allowed to discharged on Wednesday, after 4 days in hospital.
Though not 100% recovered, he was able to drink milk and started to ask for food.
He still need to continue the antibiotic treatment after discharged.
