Dengue NS1 Test Philippines

Recently, there have been stories of hospitalization due to dengue. Most cases leading to admission of the patient to the ICU or intensive case unit. There has been a report of surge of acute dengue virus in some hospitals. And in my post on my Facebook Page on what to do to prevent this kind of thing, a lot of people asked for the price of Dengue NS1 Test Philippines.

Yes, that’s what happened in most cases. There is not much symptoms to say that it is dengue but as it happens, the case is already acute. What are the usual signs for dengue? Fever is one but more than that, it also includes other signs such as fatigue, change in stool, and body aches. Sometimes it is also accompanied by rashes. In recent events, dengue cases starts from a slight fever but when the patient is hospitalized, an ICE treatment is already needed due to organ failure.

A recent report from Inquirer says that a doctor died due to dengue. And more cases of acute dengue is being treated, most patients being admitted to the ICU. This is quite alarming for all of us. Worrisome for most moms.

What moms should do?

We need to be extra vigilant when it comes to fever At the first sign of fever, observe your kid. Observe for 24 hours and if the fever persists, go to the nearest pedia or hospital and ask for Dengue NS1 Test Philippines. Now, how much is Dengue NS1 Test Philippines? Is it covered by your health card? Is Dengue NS1 Test Philippines covered by HMO?

How much is Dengue NS1 Test Philippines? The prices ranges from 400-3000 Pesos depending on the hospital. In Hi Precision here in Pasig, the price of Dengue NS1 Test Philippines is 1200 Pesos. In Healthway, the price is 1560. I asked a big hospital, The Medical City, and the rate is 2000-3000 Pesos.

For public hospitals, the price range is 400-600.

Is Dengue NS1 Test Philippines covered by HMO? In some cases yes, in some it is not. From ur experience a few years back, the NS1 test is covered by Intellicare.

Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump Review

And though I already have 5 kids and breastfed all of them exclusively, I know nothing about breast pump. I’m a stay at home mom so I never really found the need to get one. I am with them most of all the time. Oh wait! I remember I bought a few cheap manual breast pump which when computed could actually amount to a decent manual pump wahaha. Sharing with you my Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump Review because I was surprised with how easy it is to pump using electric breast pump. I am encouraging moms, specially who’s working and is exclusively breastfeeding, to get an electric breast pump.

Why did I finally get an electric pump? I suffered from engorged breast (which I though was mastitis). I had fever for a day and it hurts. My breast is so big and so heavy. My first reaction was to look for a breast pump to relieve the pain. I was lucky that Born Ph lend me their Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump. I learned that breast pump is not the solution for breast engorgement. It becomes more painful when you pump it. Warm compress and massage helped a lot.

Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump Review

I was able to try and use Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump Review after a few weeks of my breast engorgement episode.

Rumble Tuff Duo Electric Breast Pump Review

Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump can be used as dual pump or it can also be used as single. Since I am still not familiar how breast pump work, I used it as single.

It has 3 expression patterns, and if you find the pattern that you want, you  can tag as your favorite mode. The suction is very gentle and the silicone breast shield cushion helped a lot in making me feel at ease while using it.

The best thing I like about Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump is it’s very light, small, and quiet. It’s very easy to bring specially if you are a working mom and you need to express at your work place.

It is electric but it includes manual diaphragm for manual pumping with adjustable suction too. So if suddenly you need to express manually, Rumbletuff Duo Electric Breast Pump got you covered.

MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up Experience

Health is Wealth. That’s one of the values that I am trying to teach my kids. Be healthy, stay healthy and focus on improving your health. Every day, I tell them to drink water because it can boost their immune system and that PREVENTION is always, always better than cure. We’re slowly getting there, with kids, consistency is the key. MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up

Even here in my blog, one of the topics that I write passionately is anything related to Health (and Science in general). I love sharing information, specially if it concerns health. I have no medical background but as I have mentioned, pag usapang health, I am very serious about that.

MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up

I’m very proud to announce that I was chosen as one of MyHealth Clinic’s Ambassador. I am really glad that My Health saw how I use this blog to advocate health and wellness for the whole family. And I am very thankful that they offered me this partnership. As part of that partnership, I am to undergo and expereince MyHealth Clinic’s Executive Check Up. To which I agreed, because you know me, I don’t post anything that I haven’t tried.

MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up Experience

This is my first time to have an executive check up so I really have no idea what to expect. A day before my check up, I was advised to go fasting for 8 hours. I was scheduled for MyHealth Clinic’s PRIME Check Executive Check-Up Package (minus the hotel) and it includes ultrasound and blood tests that needs fasting.

Am I excited for my MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up? Syempre naman! Not just because this is my first time but syempre I want to know ang lagay lagay ng mga organs ko. I want to know where I am on the “Health” scale.

My schedule was 10 AM and I am OK with it since I usually sleep and eat late. First impression:MyHealth Clinic serves a lot of people but the atmosphere inside the clinic is not busy. Mukhang mababait and very accommodating ang mga staff.

Executive Check-Up Experience At My Health Shangri-La

My first stop was at the Nurse Station where my vitals were taken (color blindness test, BP, heart rate, height, and weight). I was also given the details of my check up and a breakfast voucher from Dome Cafe (woohoo!!).

I was escorted to the executive lounge (which is the holding area for patients undergoing executive check up) to wait for the next step. The room was not that big but comfortable enough and coffee is free (at may TV).

Blood extraction was next for the following tests:

  • CBC (Complete Blood Count)
  • Blood Uric Acid (BUA)
  • Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)
  • Creatinine
  • Lipid Profile
  • Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS)
  • SGPT (serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase)
  • TSH (for thyroid)
  • Hepatitis B Screening (HbsAg)
  • FT4 (ECLA) (for thyroid) 
  • HBA1C (to check diabetes) 

I never really liked needles and I have very low pain tolerance, mabuti na lang the nurse who took my blood, magaan ang kamay nya. I never even felt the needle on my skin. I was given two cups for stool and urine specimen.

Here comes whole abdomen ultrasound (on an empty stomach) and after this, makaka breakfast na ako! Pero this was also the part na medyo tumagal. Judging from the photos on my phone, this procedure took 45 minutes. BAKIT MATAGAL? The whole abdomen ultrasound checks on all the organs located at that part of the body. Eto eto ang mga na check during the ultrasound:

  •  Liver
  • Pancreas
  • Spleen
  • Gall Bladder
  • Kidneys
  • Urinary Bladder

Napagatal yata lalo because of my layers and layers of fatsss! OA sa dami haha

The breakfast voucher from Dome Cafe is around 300-400 Pesos worth of breakfast (I forgot the exact) but it does not include coffee (sana pala nagbaon ako from the lounge hehe). How was the taste? Well, the 10 hour fasting was worth it. Ang sarap ng tapa, feels like I’m in Tagaytay.

Chest xray comes next and then thyroid ultrasound. Breast ultrasound comes next but I opted to have it another day because I am not comfortable exposing my breast to a male doctor. And I learned that it is OK to say no to that. If you are not comfortable, it’s OK, hindi siya nakakahiya.

 MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up

Say hello to Nurse Maine! Joke lang! But she really looks like Maine Mendoza di ba? Medyo kaboses din and very light kausap.. which made the 2D Echo with Doppler and 12 Lead Electrocardiogram exam a lot better. Kabado nga ako sa heart ko di ba? The results, I still have to wait but judging from the sound coming from the doppler, my heart seems OK (SANA NGA!).

Almost done!! This is 2nd to the last from the list (except for the breast ultrasound which I have to come back the next day). Nag ready ako for this test, naka pang takbo outfit talaga ako. So if you’re planning to get MyHealth Clinic Executive Check Up, that’s one thing you need to remember: wear comfortable clothes and wear running/sports shoes.

Nasubukan ko na ito before eh (Clium days) and I do not like this test. Not because I do not like running but because I have to remove my bra. May mga wires wires na ikakabit sa katawan eh. For a 38D person, it’s super challenging to run without bra 🙁 But Nurse “Maine” was very attentive to details like that, she made me wore a support for my breast. Huhuhu sobrang touch ako!

Last check up for the day is the physical exam plus papsmear. Hindi na ako nag pa papsmear since I just had my papsmear a few weeks ago. I was out of the clinic by 4 PM.

I was able to come back for the breast ultrasound 3 days later. Busy ang lola nyo eh and also since ultrasound lang naman, nag antay din ako ng kasabay na event para hindi sayang ang paglabas ko.

The breast ultrasound took less than 30 minutes lang and according to the Doctor who did it, both my breast is OK. Now, I just have to wait for the results of my PRIME Check Executive Check-Up. The result will take 5-10 days because all the tests will be consolidated and will be read medically as a whole. I will keep you posted! At sana ok lahat!
