No matter how much we try to avoid HFMD... Jon still succumb to it. He started it with a mild fever and as HFMD was at the peak, we spent no efforts to bring him to the doctor. Initial checked was he had tonsil infection and had infected his left ear. Doc warned us that he may have high fever later. Soon enough, despite taking panadol, his fever was still a yo-yo, always hovering around 37.x to 38.0c. He refused to eat or drink milk and only accept water. He also refused his fav - ice cream, ice bar and yoghurt. After a few days, ulcers broke up in his mouth. Brought him to the doc and was diagnosed with HFMD!! Thanks to my sister who took care of him while we were at work. Both of them became good friends overnight. After a week, he was recovered. He lost around 2 kg during this period. But he can afford to lose the kgs. LOL
