We locals (I'm not from Bali, but Indonesian) are also afraid to get Dengue. Find out which months that most susceptible to get Dengue (mostly rainy season) and buy some insect repellent. Spray your room with insect repellent before you go outside, and use some mosquitos repellent lotion before you sleep. If you don't like the lotion one, you can buy some natural oil like cajuputi (minyak angin), or baby product (minyak telon). If you're living in a villa for a long time, check if they provide you with mosquito net. If they're not, consider to buy one, it's cheap. Also ask if you can burn some mosquito coils in veranda.

Who the hell travels long term without getting travel insurance, especially these days?

[WahjoeGunawan]

Bali is a tropical island. Naturally any diseases related to tropics are common. That why one year travel insurance at least cover $100.000 is a must. Hope you recover well and continue to visit Bali again.

[cnelson]

Thank you for sharing this. I will be more careful about bug spray when I travel to tropical areas now. I'm sorry there are some judgemental people here saying condescending things when you are just sharing an already painful memory and trying to help others avoid it. I appreciate you! And I'm glad you are feeling better.

I contracted dengue. I believe it was while cycling around Lombok. Got back to Bali after about a week over there and was woke up in my place around 3am with bad body pains. Figured I might have the flu. Fell back asleep and woke up around 5 in the worst pain I’ve ever been in. Basically rolled around in pain all day. Zero strength.

Went to the hospital that night and they told me doing blood work then would be pointless because it was too soon, but the doctor said it was probably dengue. Went back the next night and it was confirmed. At the same time, the pain had almost completely subsided. The doctor told me everything that would happen over the next week almost to a tee. Unbelievable how predictable that virus is.

After three days feeling totally fine (maybe a bit tired), I started developing a weird rash all over my arms. Then started getting super tired and nauseous. My girlfriend was prepared for this and she took me to a nearby hospital. I thought I was in there for a night. I was in there for 6 nights.

When I was checked out, I still felt woozy for a couple days. Couldn’t get the taste of copper out of my mouth for a good month. Easy to get car sick and air sick running business trips to Java. It rocked me completely to my core for about 2 months.

Dengue is not to be played. That was about 8 years ago. I’ll never forget it. And I’ll be sure to always use repellent. It can save your life.

I had pneumonia in Greece, a rare disease in Peru, a high fever with terrible back pain in afghanistan. This was in the 1970's when hospitals in those places were not great, to say the least. I think I was lucky to have survived. I recommend to not travel alone unless it is for work for a company that has an insurance and medical arrangements in advance in case of emergency. Don't depend on being lucky.

I had the same thing a couple of years ago traveling through Asia Pacific and the one thing I always had with me was antibiotics. I’m glad you made it out safe and you’re well…all the best

[AllentheBeloved]

Denge is everywhere in that attitude, its down in the Caribbean and Riviera Maya too, any hot and humid place will be a risk ... one of my friends in Playa del Carmen got it recently and half of her hair fell off

[susijohnston]

I really feel for you! I lived in Bali for 22 years and got dengue fever twice. I was well-settled and I speak fluent Indonesian, but even with these huge advantages, it was absolutely awful and frightening in a way most people will never understand, because of how things are there. So I totally feel for you, and watching this part of your story made me feel like reaching right into my laptop to give you a big hug and a sympathetic shoulder to cry on. You're a strong person. That's obvious. You'll do well wherever you find yourself in the future. The tough times and disappointments and hard decisions you've faced have made you become the wiser and more compassionate person you are now. Nobody can take that away from you. Go forth and flourish! x x o o x x

[MathBellk]

Glad it was a happy ending! I almost teared up when you saw your mom. I know that feeling of not seeing family for a long time. Can't wait for more of your videos!

[DinaMadi]

Loved this very real and authentic video Danie. It really touched my heart 💗This was 2 years ago so I am sure you are doing wonderfully well now and traveling somewhere around the globe again. Thanks for sharing your touching story!

[mariahwhisper]

I’ve getting period emotions and got so emotional when you reunited w your mom I’m literally sobbing

[PriscillaMaine]

OHH what fun you must have had before you illness. They look like a fun group. The bearded guy has such a nice calm voice. I could listen to him forever. I hope you are completely well now. It's no fun getting that sick.

[osvster]

I'm just going to put it here for everyone.

If you're on any tropical country, you'll likely get dengue there. If so, it's best to go to hospital. There's a high chance that you will stay there for sometime so be aware of that.

Locals know about Dengue and they know that they treat this seriously by going into hospital. But good thing is, once you done with the ordeal, you will be immune to dengue for the rest of your life.

This disease has medium chance of lethality if untreated after long periods of time (high chance if you're not treated by any means) but if you're getting treatment, it would be as low as normal fever. But the discomfort from this is going to be a bit miserable (You will live, but few days of suffering and discomfort).

[alyssa]

Just to add on, the korean cosmetics do not bleach your skin... it just helps your skin to be brighter and healthier with vitamin c or sth similar.

[ferdieoj]

My tears went down when I know you are alone in the hospital, oh my what a sad moment..here in the Philippines, we treat Dengue with a plant called "tawa-tawa" in visayan language here in Mindanao..and the platelet will return back to normal..Happy to know you're now with your family...Thanks for sharing your valuable videos & educating us new content creators.. God bless You and your family.

[akireparjoko]

Had dengue many times when I was living there, many other people I know had it too. Had angkak ( red fermented rice) as home remedy which increases trombosite, so I'd never been hospitalized.

[johnnash]

What I hate about Bali is its hard to walk anywhere unless you are on a beach... So many motorbike close calls, spiders in your accommodation and mosquito Bourne illnesses : (

[heatherfruin]

I've never ever travelled without travel insurance. So sorry hear you got so sick and hope you're feeling a lot better now.

[paulapenna-loveyourvoice]

Im so sorry you went through this, especially alone! I can imagine how helpless your mom must’ve felt, too.
