Feeling better

I am feeling better as day goes by. No longer feeling giddy all day long. Able to walk straight line. Able to control my limbs. But my eye sight has not recovered but is getting better. This illness has taken me nearly a month to recover. More than 50% of the time is totally down (i.e. not able to do anything other than lying on bed). Not able to read books for very long and not able to watch TV programs for long too. All I could do during that period is to sleep and resultedinsomnia at night. Recovering process is not easy. Lying on bed all day long makes me feel weak. I have to force myself out of bed and try to walk and do some house chores. I feel this makes me recover faster.

Thinking back. The whole process is really terrifying especially days when I was having giddiness whole day and not able to see properly and not able to walk properly and worst is when I lost control of my limbs.

Lessons learnt:

- Never underestimate what a seasonal flu could get you. My PD and specialist suspect flu virus has caused the viral infection.

- Always take good care of our body. I have been neglecting my health. During this period, I have been taking royal jelly and vitamin C daily to boost my immune system and also hope I could recover faster. I guess they do some help.

- Treasure your family. Thanks a lot to my hubby. Without him, I don't know what will happen to me. Thanks God that he is with me during this period. (He is always traveling due to work)

- Good to have hospitalization insurance. (I am not an insurance agent) Go for full coverage if you can afford. My hospitalization bill costs me $3k plus. Luckily we have purchased hospitalization insurance two years back for entire family and this bill is covered.

- Good to have religion belief. I was very worried when I went for MRI scan. Worried what will happen during the scan. Worried what will happen to the result. Worried what will happen to my family if I couldn't make it. Then I have a few seconds wonder what will happen to me if I couldn't make it. Where will I be?
