The Manila temperature 5 days ago was 33.5 dgrees celcius and even up to now almost the same. It's the reason for my absence. It might be a heat stroke. I went out to pay our electric bill while on the way, I felt uneasy for the excessive heat all around. When I reached home I was sweating all over, my eyes seemed to be pouring hot tears, got fever and severe headaches. I had to take my hypertension medications as my BP rose up. I can't bear the heat, my daughter had to wipe me with cold towel and got ice all over my head. The ice saved me. I was getting unconscious should not be for the bulk of ice that sorrounded me. I got flu, cough and cold. I just hope you don't experience the same.

Hi bing28, So sorry to hear that you are not feeling well and hope that you will be better soon. There is no chance of me getting a heat stroke where I live, especially at this time of year. Take good care and get better soon. Blessings.
