I too have had Dengue twice which is unusual as you are immune once you have had it. Problem is there are 5 strains of the virus spread out over Asia-Pacific. You only get immunity to the strain that you have. So you are susceptible to the virus' other strains in other areas.

Extremely important to do a cardiac follow up! The second time I had the virus it attacked the tissue in my heart leading to eventual heart disease. (CHF)
