with Dengue 2 years ago. I was living there at the time so when I was first diagnosed and they wanted to admit me I declined but I had to go back each day to check my blood count. I think the 2nd day I went back it had dropped so low that they convinced me to be admitted and I was in Kasih Ibu for three nights. I was on a drip to keep my fluids up but I think it is as much monitoring because of the low blood count. Another expat friend of mine who had dengue not long before me managed to stay out of hospital but had the daily blood tests to keep check.
