COVID Test Result - POSITIVE

Friday 10 Sep 2021


Visited the doctor at around 11.30am. The clinic referred me to another clinic for the COVID test. I did ART and PCR tests at around 1pm. The results came out by 6pm. POSITIVE.


I was told that a pickup will come for me tomorrow and I should start packing. 


Actually the fever had subsided after I ate lunch at 2pm. Also I didn't feel fatigued anymore.

    This is the link for some of the Public Health Preparedness Clinics (PHPC) clinics, that offer Swab and Send Home (SASH) Covid swab tests, if you have respiratory symptoms or suspect you have other Covid symptoms.

Day 8 - Blood Test and Smell Came Back for a Split Second

Image
 Today is Day 8 since my diagnosis last Friday and Day 6 since I arrived at the isolation facility last Sunday. Today is Friday 17 September 2021. From Friday to Friday, we have come full circle! My temperature this morning was 37.6 deg C. It sounds high but trust me, I've never felt better. I don't feel feverish at all now!! The temperature looks high only because it's an oral thermometer, which are supposed to have higher readings than ear thermometers. It's been about 3 days since I have taken panadol. My sore throat is almost all gone too (but not completely gone). I don't even think taking sore throat pills are necessary now, even though I will just take them. As for the cough, yes, it is still on-going, but a bit better than yesterday. There are four highlights for today.  First Highlight - Blood Test They came to our room to draw blood for a blood test today at around 12pm. They almost wanted to come 1-2 days ago but said that the test was postponed or cancel...

Day 13 - Topsy Turvy Sleeping Cycle

Image
Today is Wednesday 22 September 2021. Today is Day 13 since my diagnosis two Fridays ago and Day 11 since my arrival at this isolation facility two Sundays ago. Today my entire sleeping cycle was turned upside down.  I had mentioned (in one of my blog posts a few days ago) that I am used to sleeping between 3 to 5 am. However, today I slept from 3+pm (22 Sept) to 3+am (23 Sept) (with a 30 minute dinner break at 6.00 pm to 6.30 pm).  Apart from my disrupted sleeping cycle, there is nothing unusual to report today.  Everything else is normal.  No fever, no sore throat. (and no diarrhea - yesterday's diarrhea was a one-off thing). Cough and loss of smell remains. Today I started eating this packet of sweets which my sister gave me (I brought these with me when I packed my bags in my room at home 2 weeks ago): I can taste the sweetness and lemon flavour of the sweets. It is nice.  Tomorrow will be my COVID swab test at last. I have been waiting 2 weeks for it! What ...

Day 9 - First Weekend at Isolation Facility

Today is Day 9 since my diagnosis two Fridays ago, and Day 7 since entering this isolation facility last Sunday. Today is Saturday 18 September 2021. This is the first weekend I encountered since being sent to this isolation facility (or CCF, "Community Care Facility".) This morning my temperature was 36.3 deg C. Lowest reading ever! (actually my first reading was 35.5 deg C but I think that was an error, too low! So I retook my temp.) I feel no fever at all.  My sore throat is 99% gone now. I even gave some of my sore throat pills to my roommate because I am sure I won't be needing them anymore. My sense of smell & taste remains 90% non-functional. I am able to smell for 0.5 seconds if I take a strong sniff at something with a strong smell e.g. meat, but not more than that. My cough has improved a little bit since yesterday. But I am not going to bother reporting it or asking for medication for it, since it is not very severe. So what's the biggest news today?  M...
