Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne illness spread by the dengue virus that presents as a severe flu-like illness. The Aedes mosquito is both the primary vector of the disease and the primary cause of fever.

My health journey:

It's been 2 years I'm still suffering from a disease called Anaemia (critically low iron in blood or like almost no blood) but mildly and yesterday my mom's cholesterol is high and it's been 9 or 8 years my dad has diabetes and it's been like many years my mom is suffering from Thyroid. In 2018, both my and I were caught with Dengue but eventually survived. My grandmother died due to slow death of dialysis because of kidney failure (she's been released from pain because her brain malfunctioned) last year. I am rarely eating sweets because there is 99% chance that I might get diabetes due to heredity as my grandparents suffered from diabetes, my father and my uncle are suffering so my father tries his best to not let me have the same fate as him.

It might sound like a guilt-trip but no, I'm not guilt-tripping. I shared this to make people confident and successful in every way forgetting their troubles. Hope you understand, bye and have a great day.

Warning⚠️: Sugar or diabetes is a silent killer, that killed my grandma. So this is just an awareness.

A Dreadful Week

By: Aravellah Cervantes

          Weak body. Redness of the skin. Vomit. Rashes. One of the many fever-related symptoms I never thought I'd encounter during high school. How would you imagine if you found out you only had a count of 44 platelets left in your body, but you survived? Every time the word 'dengue' appears, it takes me back to the past, still vivid in my mind. Dengue, the fever that made me dread whenever I stopped by the hospital and that I desired would never return.

          I recalled that it was July, and the weather was sunny with a mix of chilly air caused by recent rain. A typical day at school except for the afternoon, when a headache suddenly struck me. My mother initially thought it was just an ordinary headache that could be treated with rest and medication. After one day of observation, the headache remained constant, making me significantly weaker and tired, and my temperature remained at 38 °C, and Mom brought me to the hospital. The doctor initially suspected dengue because most patients handled at that time were suffering from the virus. Even the ward where I was confined had all dengue virus patients, with two teenagers in the intensive-care unit (ICU).

          According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Dengue is a viral infection transmitted to humans through the bite of infected mosquitoes. The primary vectors that transmit the disease are Aedes aegypti mosquitoes and, to a lesser extent, Ae. albopictus. Dengue commonly appears in tropical and subtropical climates, mostly in urban and semi-urban areas. Sometimes it is hard to believe how a tiny insect like a mosquito leeching off human blood could have a tremendous effect on the body.

          According to data from the governor's office, there were 9,392 annual dengue cases in the province of Iloilo in 2016. It was designated as the third year in the three-year cycle of the dengue upsurge. The doctor informed my mother that I only have 44 platelets in my body, which means that I'll be prone to bleeding, which could be fatal. Afterward, he advised me to refrain from brushing my teeth and to avoid foods with hues (such as brown and red) that may be mistaken for blood when I have my discharge. I'm still relieved that I did not have a blood transfusion, as this is something I never wanted to undergo.

          Several symptoms appeared during my stay, including headaches, rashes, muscle pain, and lethargy. To monitor me, the nurses had to draw blood every six hours. While fighting dengue, I also had a menstrual period and a potassium deficiency, which was undesirable. I've lost my appetite; the soft meal my mother buys for me, and even the hospital ration, aren't helping because I vomit between every bite. I depended primarily on the dextrose drip. My mother was very concerned about me; all I could do was lie in bed, hoping and praying that I would recover quickly. It was my first time experiencing that phenomenon, and maybe the fear and anxiety of thinking that I may be on the verge of life added to my burden. It was pretty frightening because, to this day, there is no cure, only prevention, and alternatives. The doctor advised that because a patient suffering from dengue fever would lose appetite and vomit frequently, especially when ingesting, it is best to drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration.

          I was stressed out every day during my stay, a depressing situation. I can see why some people despise staying much longer. In my case, I had to spend time in the hospital for around ten days due to some circumstances, but I surmounted them all. My body also underwent significant changes. When I finally returned home, it took me at least three days to regain my strength, particularly in my legs, which had been unable to walk due to muscle pain and discomfort impacted by dengue. According to WHO, "Recovery from infection is believed to provide lifelong immunity against that serotype. However, cross-immunity to the other serotypes after recovery is only partial and temporary. Subsequent infections (secondary infection) by other serotypes increase the risk of developing severe dengue" (Dengue and Severe Dengue, 2022). Although I had acquired antibodies from dengue, I am still prone to three more dengue viruses. The more times the virus appears in a person's body, the more dangerous its effect is on the body. Indeed, it was a tough battle.

          Dengue fever is still a significant health concern and a threat to humanity. It is globally widespread and appears as a disease outbreak in almost all tropical regions at reasonable times and locations. Getting dengue fever wasn't what I had hoped for during my first two months of high school, but it changed my life. It made me more aware of my surroundings and made me take extra care of my body because I never know what lies ahead. Dengue fever may be different for some people than it was for me, but it is a fever that I would avoid for the entirety of my life. It took a toll on my physical, emotional, and mental health. It gave me a new perspective and made me realize that this virus is no small matter, especially since there remains no cure.

#Dengue #alert (End)

Due to the decrease in the number of #blood platelets in #Dengue, the process of blood clotting is greatly damaged. In this case, eating foods that are high in #vitamin-K, such as spinach, broccoli, meat, especially pigeon meat, liver, beans, cheese, etc., increases the chances of getting well quickly.

#Dengue disease patient's mouth taste of food is reduced. So the patient can start with different types of soups, thin khichuri, soft food etc. so that he can eat food easily and to facilitate digestion. Foods rich in oil and spices should be avoided so as not to cause stomach gas or indigestion.

#In case of diabetic and kidney disease patients, extra precautions must be followed. Depending on the disease, the patient's diet must be different. Depending on the patient's daily blood test results, physical condition, likes and dislikes, food should be prepared so that the patient can eat according to his taste and recover quickly.

Finish.

There's a popular post making the rounds with someone getting very angry about people leaving "Wow I never heard about this" comments (or even just tags) on an informative post about Dengue fever. This stuff is so stupid.

It really hits all the notes, too, with people getting defensive and saying it's not their fault the American school system failed them, with the OP replying that you have to take responsibility and learn about the stuff on your own ... How does one learn about things of which one is not even aware? Google "What are some important things I have never heard of" I guess.

The people in question weren't even like dismissive, they didn't say "Pff, why should I concern myself with this?" they just said that they didn't know something before reading a post which was meant to teach people who didn't know something. If you don't want people to get defensive, you have to stop attacking them over benign shit!

Part of the job of spreading information is having to interact with people who don't know this information. Getting mad when someone admits to not having already known this information disqualifies you as an effective spreader of that information.

Then again, the post complaining about the ignorance has crossed my dash several times, while the original informative post hasn't. So I guess pointless outrage is a way to spread information after all.

yo!

i love your blog & it's been a safe space for me lately 🥰

in your latest reblog you wrote "went through" the pandemic, referring to the ongoing pandemic in the past tense.

as i'm sure you know, COVID is still one of the leading causes of death for many people & is still disabling thousands on a daily basis.

i'm sure it wasn't malicious, but referring to the pandemic in the past tense when so many are still directly affected by it & testing positive to this day is ableist language, because it centers those who have the luxury of health to falsely think of the pandemic - and, as a consequence, vulnerable folks - as a thing of the past.

please consider the language you use when referring to the ongoing pandemic, which many (including myself) are still masking to protect our health to this day 😷

thank you! 🤍

Hey I know youre not coming from a bad place saying this, and I know you’re trying to call me out but it’s kind of bold to assume that i was not one of the people with disabilities that was affected by the pandemic while this is a blog that’s openly about living with disabilities. i have eds, caught covid even while masking, lost people in my life over it, was left seriously sick after, went through every type of doctor, and ended up doing experimental treatment because no one really knew what happened to me and they still don’t know, and i still haven’t recovered (probably never will, tho who knows) in 2024. i am a person with a disability left in terrible conditions after having it. i still mask. i am one of the people you refer to while also calling my language ableist because i used the past tense. I don’t really know what tense to use while talking about it. And it seems a lot of people disagree on it too, so i honestly don’t quite know what to think I should use because it’s honestly confusing. i am extremely aware covid is very very real, and it has changed my life forever ever since i had it.

I do not have the false luxury of that belief that you seem to assume i do. It’s quite hurtful, and I’ve been pretty open about it on this blog, and it’s one of the reasons I even made this blog. I’m literally disabled.

Not only I survived covid in terrible condition with awful levels of chronic back pain + chronic migraines + pots but i also survived a dengue epidemic this year in brazil and I haven’t been doing well ever since getting sick months ago.

unfortunately, hmo has declared covid to no longer be a pandemic. It was still a pretty controversial decision, I don’t know if people are unaware that covid isn’t serious, I certainly am not, and I don’t personally think it is “over” or in “the past” because this is honestly my present and it will be my future.

I know you don’t mean it, but the assumption still feels weird because you’re sending this to a person who has a blog about living with a disability, and it even says so on my description and pinned post.

I don’t know what language to use to describe this anymore, and I know it will be controversial either way. But just please, please, please, don’t assume that I’m not a disabled person who doesn’t mask and didn’t have their lives and health fall into crumbles after having covid and then having dengue which is a very serious epidemic in Brazil right now. My country was one of the most affected by covid, and I saw my life change completely after having it, and I knew people who were left extremely sick and died because of it. On top of that we had another epidemic virus outbreak (dengue). On top of that I already had a chronic illness (EDS). Then on top of that this is a blog about living with a disability and chronic pain.

And it seems specialists don’t know what language to use either, but most of these specialists are aware the disease is still very serious:

When I asked Dr. Mandy Cohen, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), she didn’t give a direct answer. “Rather than getting caught up in the semantics of it,” she says, people should feel confident that “we are outside of the emergency [phase]. But I don’t want folks to forget that COVID is still here and still poses a risk.”

Even Maria Van Kerkhove, director of epidemic and pandemic prevention and preparedness at the WHO, admitted that the issue is a “confusing” one. The WHO continues to describe COVID-19 as a pandemic on its website. Van Kerkhove says that’s reasonable given the virus’ continued global presence, even though we are no longer in the crisis state we were in 2020—but, she says, there’s no definitive, yes-or-no conclusion about whether that’s the right term to use.

Just please, please, don’t assume things like this because I used past tense. Whatever tense I use, it feels like there will be people who don’t agree, I get that. I don’t know what language to use, and I don’t want to be stuck on the semantics of it, because I feel quite stuck still to the awful things that have happened to me these past years, the ones that are happening right now. But that does not mean I don’t think covid isn’t serious or deadly or that it leaves people with chronic illnesses even worse or that it didn’t cause mental health issues or economic issues or social issues. because I have lived through the very serious ramifications of having it.
