We panicked when we were rushing Revin to the hospital!
It started in afternoon of thursday, while staying in the school, waiting for my 2 kids. He slept in my lap the whole time and I noticed when we were about to go home that he was hot and had fever. Even when we got back at home, he continued to sleep. I started to get worried and even refused to wake up to eat dinner. At 8'oclock, his temperature rose as high as 38'3 degrees Celcius. So I gave him medicine for fever, but he vomited after few seconds. He vomited 3 times and started to complain of headache but no stomach pain. It made me more nervous because it seems like a symptoms of dengue fever.
He looked pale, dehydrated and very weak, that made us decide to rush him in the hospital.
He was brave enough, that he was not crying when he was injected IV fluid and extracted blood for some tests.Nurses were also elated for his reaction.
When his doctor visited him friday morning, he had some physical test for appendicitis and for bone fracture. He complained pain on his back when the doctor lifted his head. So the doctor advised to have chest xray to check his chest and spinal cord. All was clear and normal and even his platelet count for dengue was also in high level.
Final diagnosis on him was Acute Gastritis and Moderate Dehydration. He is now perfectly all right and becoming "pasaway" na naman!
