I've been dealing with some weird symptoms recently and I'm getting a bit worried. Two weeks ago, I woke up with a really bad sore throat. I thought it might be because I wasnt drinking enough water in the mornings, so I started drinking more throughout the day. But, then last week, I started having this intense pain on the left side, right above my hip. It was pretty bad. And now this week, Im experiencing shortness of breath, some major headaches, and on and off chest pain. If I breathe in too quickly, I end up having this coughing fit. Its all starting to concern me. Could these symptoms be connected? What should I be doing about all this?

Today we checked again, and his platelet count dropped to 1.1, but the NS1 antigen test came back dengue negative. Im really confused about what this could mean and what steps we should take next. What should we do?
