This morning was the worst yet. I woke up at 8, went to the bathroom and suddenly my vision got fuzzy and I fell over and conked my head. I stumbled back onto my feet and tried to go to the sink. Then I blanked out and found myself lying on my back on the floor. I was feeling very sick to my stomach (a sign of malaria) So I went straight back to bed to clear my head and by 11:30 I was on my way to the hospital for testing. 4 hours later I find out that they can't see any malaria parasites in my blood, but that doesn't mean it's not somewhere in my system. So I have to take some meds until Monday and then we'll see what happens from there.
I'm kinda pissed off and it's not because I'm sick, but that even after going to the hospital, I don't know exactly what is happening with me. Is it malaria? Is it some other disease? Is it just some wicked fever? Who knows. Unless something interesting happens, I'll stop writing about this ordeal for now.
