I saw the doctor again this evening because my fever has not gone down at all. She has no remedy, but gave me instructions on what I should do if I need to go to TTSH. I asked her if I should go to TTSH if my fever shoots to 38 degree or more at night. She said yes, but when there, I am to maintain a 1m distance away from other patients. I would be given a mask to wear. Basically, I must not touch anything that's wet, and I ought to wrap my finger in tissue before pressing the lift buttons.

I have a mysterious fever that would not subside. I really don't know what it is. Dr Tay wants me to monitor it closely in case its something that's cooking up inside and may "boil" when the time is right. She said the patients at TTSH probably had slight fevers too before things started boiling. Can't say for sure what it is that I have, but I just have to play safe because we can't say for sure how sars is spread and how it works.

Temperature before I went to the clinic = 37.4
Temperature at the clinic = 37.0
Termperature now = 37.5

sigh...
