Angel Locsin, rushed to the hospital because of dengue

Actress Angel Locsin was rushed to the hospital recently because of dengue. The star of Love Me Again: Land Down Under was reported to have developed a fever last January 17, Saturday, causing her to cancel her appearance on Entertainment Live with Piolo Pascual. She also cancelled her appearances on ASAP ’09 and The Buzz the following day because the fever had gotten worse. Three days after, Angel attended a press launch for Avon’s new endorsers Luis Manzano and Nikki Gil but her fever had not subsided by then. "Nung Wednesday, bigla na lang siya nag-high fever," her boyfriend Luis shared. “Actually she started throwing up. Ang taas ng fever niya nag-40, nag-39 (degrees). She was throwing up, nadi-dehydrate siya." It was only on Thursday, January 22, that she was brought to the hospital around 11 PM. "Namumula talaga siya, that could be a sign of dengue," related Luis, who at that time, was still waiting for the official diagnosis of the doctor. "Pero kumbaga 'yun ang primary suspect na-dengue.”

However, people close to the actress now report that Angel is already on her way to recovery. Her manager Becky Aguila sent a text message to The Buzz yesterday (January 25) saying, "Angel was officially diagnosed with dengue infection two days ago. As of 5 AM, the platelet count has gone up to fifty-eight thousand. Her doctor is optimistic that she's on her way to recovery." Angel also expressed through the text message her gratitude to everyone who prayed for her.

Although she is getting better, Luis is still asking for prayers for Angel's speedy recovery. "Definitely kahit sinong may sakit, napakalaki ng naitutulong ng mga dasal, Pero she's okay. She's being taken care of. Ipagdasal na lang natin na gumaling siya agad para makapagpasya siya kaagad through TV o kung ano pa man."
