LARA Quigaman was hospitalized due to acute pyelonephritis or kidney infection, the actress revealed on Wednesday.
In a series of posts on her Instagram Stories, Lara said she and her family had just gotten home from their week-long vacation in Cebu when she started feeling unwell.
“Sobrang nag-enjoy kami sa Cebu, pero napagod din pala ako. Pag-uwi sa bahay, naramdaman ko ang sobrang pagod. Pati likod ko sobrang sakit. May tatlong bata pang sobrang clingy at medyo ‘di ko na kinaya. I had a meltdown. Naiyak ako at sabi ko sa sarili ko, gusto ko lang muna mag-isa. Magpahinga… Maya-maya, nilagnat na ako, nag-chills,” she added.
After two days of high fever and chills, Lara was rushed to the hospital and was isolated until she got a negative coronavirus disease 2019 test result.
“I spent three nights in the hospital. The first two nights were horrible because I still had high fever, pain and chills, but the last night–I think tulo laway tulog na ako.
Sharing a selfie of herself in the hospital bed, Lara said: “Nakapag-selfie na ako dito kasi pinayagan na ako umuwi ng doctor. Acute pyelonephritis. I was given antibiotics via IV. Now getting better. Thank You, Jesus!”
In her next Story, Lara shared photos of her kids sleeping, along with the caption, “Back home. Balik siksik na naman sila… Okay na ako. Will remember to rest and take it easy. And to ask for and accept help.”(Push)
