Fighting Kawasaki - Day 1 & 2

The Docs still tgh rule out symptoms. They have to confirm samada betul2 Kawasaki or other type of fever such as Scarlet Fever or Strep.

There are frequent visits  from the MOs, they can only identify 2 out of 5 symptoms of Kawasaki. According to their practice, to be diagnosed with kawasaki, one need to have at least 4 out of 5 its common symptoms.
In the afternoon, during the specialist visit, 4 kawasaki symptoms identified. So confirmed diagnose kawasaki disease and they will start the medication immediately.

I was briefed by the MO about the treatment, medication & risk. She will be treated with IVIG (human protein or antibodi), aspirin (to prevent blood clot in coronary artery), antibiotics and full maintenance drips (sbb tak boleh nak makan or minum). Bila MO mentioned about the risk of the aspirin, berdebar jugak hati. Redha je lah. Kita cuba sedaya upaya & tawakkal.

So once confirmed diagnose with kawasaki, bermulalah series of blood test, chest xrays, ECG, Heart ECO and dental visits.

Sampai malam ni, demam Khalisya masih belum subside eventhough dah start high dose aspirin & antibiotics. Avg temperature.

IVIG treatment suppose to start petang ni but since demam tak turun lagi. Kena postponed ke maghrib. The IVIG treatment will take 12 hrs utk kesemua 9 tube dihabiskan. So esok akan around 7am baru habis.
