In 2018, Dharia had symptoms of abdominal discomfort, blood in the stools. She ignored, thinking it was haemorrhoid, and 23 times diarrhoea in a day, as caused by her food while in India. When back in S'pore, she continued to have diarrhoea 6 to 7 times a day, with blood in the stools. While donating blood, her Hb was too low to qualify, her weight dropped from 68kg to 48kg.
She was sent to see a GE from SGH, diagnosed as having moderately severe Ulcerative Colitis. Initial treatment was good, then she had high fever, was hospitalized again. Many cycles happened, she had low energy, fatigue, had only high carbo, high protein, liquid diet then. Her words of inspiration to fellow patients: All of us have lots of support from family, friends and CCSS, with fellow patients rallying support to one another.
