Chee Hong's Day 15 in SGH

He will be going for operation to remove his lumps around his neck area to inspect what is his actual illness. And then the doctor will start giving him treatment. As per topic today is his day 15 in hospital, he's officially the undisputed champion in the room![Chee Hong please don't kill me when u read this!]. Plus he don't wanna pose for me to take pictures, no photos for ya all too!

Currently the suspected medical condition is LUPUS.

Let me explain in more detail [lol, i am like giving a representation!]

Also called: Discoid lupus, Subacute cutaneous lupus, Systemic lupus erythematosus

If you have lupus, your immune system attacks healthy cells and tissues by mistake. This can damage your joints, skin, blood vessels and organs. There are many kinds of lupus. The most common type, systemic lupus erythematosus, affects many parts of the body. Discoid lupus causes a rash that doesn't go away. Subacute cutaneous lupus causes sores after being out in the sun. Another type can be caused by medication. Neonatal lupus, which is rare, affects newborns.

Anyone can get lupus, but women are most at risk. Lupus is also more common in African American, Hispanic, Asian and Native American women. The cause of lupus is not known.

Lupus has many symptoms. Some common ones are

  • Joint pain or swelling
  • Muscle pain
  • Fever with no known cause
  • Red rashes, often on the face (also called the "butterfly rash")

There is no one test to diagnose lupus, and it may take months or years to make the diagnosis. There is no cure for lupus, but medicines and lifestyle changes can help control it.
