Well, I have been down with this chikungunya since last Sunday morning.
Initially it was painful to move my limbs at all, and walking was painful once up. My hands and feet were the most painful initially, but as the day moved on literally every bone in my body began to ache relentlessly, resting or moving. And so I got the good old Dominican shot which is always recomended it seems no matter what illness you have or what doctor you consult, but did very little for me. Next day was worse, and then my head began to want to burst, couldn?t look into light, or out of the window as it wrecked my head.
And this went on getting worse, I got some tablets that are being dished out it seems as many here now have it. And this seems to have brought my out in abseses and boils all over, in quite the worst possible places, my head is now fine but moving is now painful, not due to muscle and bone pain, but because I have so many abseses and boils on me, and my joints are like balloons, no women are looking to ravish me right now I can assure you.
But hopefully this is now coming to an end, and I can start to move about after the weekend.
I have written my experience as I would like to know of others similarities and where it went from here.
I had Dengue a couple of years ago, and the headaches can not be compared to that of Dengue, but the muscle and joint pain is much much worse.
Give me chikungunya over Dengue any day, but it is still a nasty little virus, spreading quite agressively it seems.
