Sophie Monk is having some serious dramas in Dubai.
The 2 Day FM radio host has had to prolong her stay because her ankle has swollen up “like an elephant”.
Her co-hosts Jules Lund and Merrick Watts called her on air expecting to laugh at her situation, but it took a sad turn when she broke into tears.
“This is the worst holiday of my life… It looks like an elephant. I’ve got to be honest, my knee is smaller than my ankle.”
Her mysterious cankle was expected to be a Deep Vein Thrombosis at first, but now the doctors are stumped (no pun intended). “They don’t know and now I’ve got a rash on my hands as well… Honestly, I don’t know what to do.” said Monk, who has been told she is unable to fly.
She sounded understandably distressed in the on-air chat, and Merrick and Jules sympathised.
Listen to Sophie break down on-air:
“We thought it was going to be funny, but it’s not that funny now”, said Merrick as they comforted Sophie over the airwaves. “This is probably not a conversation we should have live on air.”
Poor Soph. Get better soon.

I had something similar and the specialist said it was ross river virus apparently I got it from a mosquito bite. I as put on steroids but did nothing I had pain in my joints and took about 3 months for swelling to go. :(
if you develop a meningococcal looking rash on your sweeling ankle; it could be HSP-Henoch–Schönlein purpura.....my daughter had it and it was the worst
