Another Update on Malaria

I saw the specialist on Friday, and he asked me questions about just about everything I'd touched, seen, or done, while I was over there! By the time he was done he had two full pages of notes in front of him. He decided he wanted to run some of his own tests to make sure I wasn't battling two things at the same time. It seems like they just about drained me : P. I counted and they had filled up six of those little tube thingys with my blood.

Up until I saw that guy (Dr Flynn) I'd been having trouble taking my medicine (that makes me sound like a naughty two-year-old : P), so he prescribed an anti-nausea drug fro me. Then yesterday I ended up in the emergency room with a severe case of lock-jaw which was a reaction to that drug : P. So now I'm on benadryll (sp??) until that stuff gets out of my system. Sounds fun huh??

Well, I need to go. We're waiting for a call back from Dr Flynn's office. Talk to you all later!
