Jim Sibbick Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 hi been in philippines 18 months now ,yes lads i,m just a rookie lol but i have,nt contracted it yet and i,m getting paranoid about getting shot down by a dengue mossie lol .I never go out the house without plastering that stuff called OFF and so far its worked .when you google it i,m surprised how colourful the dengue carrying mossie is to the ordinary mossie ,so i,m always on the lookout in my house .I insist that nobody leaves any doors open around the house because i noticed one day thats how they were sneaking in .I know there is no cure and you just gotta sit it out even been told its a waste of time and money going to the hospital .so whats your experience. . Got dengue fever in 1995. Spent 4 nights in hospital on Leyte. In my opinion, if you live a healthy lifestyle, resulting in a healthy immune system, you have nothing to fear from Dengue fever. That is plenty of exercise, plenty of sleep and eat a nutritious diet with minimal alcohol, which adversely affects the immune system.. Many Filipinos do not have a healthy lifestyle, which is why they roll off the perch after getting the disease. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
