Blood Test Interpretation

It is now 9.43am and I will be heading off to a doctor’s appointment at approximately 10 am. Questions for Dr. Chaw…

  1. What does high level of BH level mean? This is for the Widal Weil Felix 2 test. Am I sick?
  2. Is there anything I can do to decrease this reading?
  3. What do I have to avoid so as to not increase BH level?

Updates after the consultation. Wish me luck!

Few hours later…

Doctor said that the blood test result is most likely a false positive. However, he did check me for possible signs of Typhoid Fever and cannot find any. He did find a birthmark on my tummy! Ha!

I was given 10 vitamin pills to help boost my immune system and was told that I can eat anything home cooked before my retest. I am not to exert myself too much.

Woo Hoo! I don’t have ‘African Deseases’. :-p

Finally!

This blog was set up since Nov 17th, 2007. Took me this long to finally log in to leave a few words.

I am having some sort of a ‘brain block’ right now. Maybe it was the heavy Asian breakfast of noodles I had with my uncle and his family 2 hours ago. Maybe my brain is still trying to sort this blog thing out. Can’t really think of anything worth writing right now, but I am sure I will soon.

Current location is Lahad Datu, Sabah, Malaysia. It is now 11.08 in the morning and I am sitting in my mom’s life insurance agency using her computer. Speaking of computer, this machine only has 256MB of RAM…sad! Something has to be done. I am usually not the geeky one but now I am the best bet here in hell hole LD.

Till another post…
