Fulfilling some dreams.

My earlier posting about my wishlist is slowly being realised. I have made the following purchases:

1. Nikon D90 Camera.
2. Panasonic LCD television.
3. Marble-topped round-shaped dining table.
4. hand-held blender (for the wife).

Still to come......

1. Sofa set.
2. External makeover of the house.
3. complete makeover of the existing car.
4. New computer table and matching chair.
5. Automated gate for the house.
6. new car (this can wait....)
7. Short holidays (this has to wait until after Fasting month and Raya)

I know I will need to add some more to this list......

Falling sick and the H1N1 Scare

I came home from work last Wednesday feeling lethargic and having a headache. I could not sleep well that night and has to take a couple of panadols as a precautionary measure. I went to work on Thursday and went to my usual clinic for doctor check-up.

Doctor: Good morning
Me: hummmmp morning....
Doctor: your heart ailment prescriptions is enough to make you 'kenyang'....
Me: yeah....
Doctor: who is your Cardiologist? Who is your Cardio-thoracic Surgeon? when did you do your By-pass surgery? blah blah blah

Doctor: Now let me see what's wrong with you!

he went on to check my BP, which was 110/70 and my temperature which was 37.5 degrees Celcius. I told him of my blood sugar which tested every other day, the latest being 5.2 (never exceeding 6.2)
He checked my throat and commented that my throat is a little red.....a sign of a beginning of viral infection. FYI I do not have coughing bout nor runny nose. The doctor told me that I may be getting the bugs but all indications do not show the classic H1N1 sympthoms.

So in the end, he prescribed me a course of antibiotic and painkiller ( I do not know what it is, looks like Ibuprofen to me). I was given an MC for the day and was asked to go home and rest and to take a lot of water. I had to miss my colleague's birthday lunch as I was not up to it and also to make the rest feel more comfortable. I had to tell her that I would not be joining them as I need to go back and rest.

Now....today is Friday, my fever is subsiding. At least that's how I felt. Just now my wife took my temperature and it is showing still 37.5. I am getting worried. Am I exposing my family to H1N1? Allah please help me.......
