I had the following symptoms: Chills, Fever, I thought an ear infection (same water in the ear feeling), constant headache (but no sinus drainage or stuffy nose), my lymph nodes were swollen, my neck ached, my back hurt, I got so dizzy when I stood up, vomiting, nausea, I am exhausted! I went to the doctor. He said the headache was a miagraine (I have never had a miagraine), and gave me medicine (that I didn't take). He gave me medicine to stop vomiting (I wasn't throwing up enough to take it). He gave me sinus medicine (I didn't take because I didn't have sinus pressure etc.) He gave me a muscle relaxer for my neck pain and a fever reducer (I did take the fever reducer). A week later I went back to the doctor and demanded some antibiotics I was soooooooo sick. He finally gave me Azithromycin 5 day course. I helped some, but my fever is comming back. What medicine treats Dengue Fever? I hate to go back to the doctor just to snatch his candy/medicine writing pad and demand he do a blood test. I was in Puerto Rico 10Sept by the 18Sept.

The Dr. will take some blood & test it. If you have it they will give you medicine to treat it. Hey you should def get checked for Dengue. The Dr. will take some blood & test it.

It is usually not life treatning; any doctor will send you to a lab to check your platelet count. It is the safest way to check if you have the hemorragic kind.
