I have lived through dengue. It was rough. And, it is the disease that keeps on giving. One month after dengue the skin on my hands and feet started peeling. The entire process took about two months. Then, my hair started falling out. For the next six months to a year, I was more susceptible to headaches, depression, and, what I call, “dengue brain.”

I would wish it on my worst enemies. But I’m vindictive like that.

That sounds like a horrible experience. I sincerely hope you never encounter any of the other strains of dengue.

I try to remember to use bug repellent. But I have discovered that they will bite through my clothing, so I have to remember to spray that, too. I hate being a mosquito magnet.
