Facing One of my fears

in Rant, Complain, Talk4 years ago

Today I felt better than I have in the last two weeks. I did a lab test yesterday and found out it was malaria and typhoid making me ill. All this time I had thought it was probably a side effect from my other medication and then the usual fatigue I experience. I started treating only yesterday and I feel better already.

A younger me would dump these drugs because I feel well but I know better. It's so hard taking oral drugs because I always feel nauseous. I choked while taking the morning dose and for hours now, I've been thinking of how to take the evening dose. It's almost midnight and I still haven't taken it because the thought alone makes me want to vomit.

What's worse is I haven't taken my other drugs today making it a total of 7 pills I have to take before I sleep. The only way is to cheat by taking it with a beverage. I'm almost certain I'd vomit if I take it with water at this point.

I'm craving all of the snacks I couldn't eat some days ago but I don't want to upset my stomach eating them. Right now, my goal is to take these awful, smelly drugs before midnight. Sigh.

Get well soon dear, taking medication was also a pet peeve but I had to stop when I realized that I needed the medicine to get better.

Feel better! It’s hard for some people to take meds. I think it’s more of a mental thing in some cases but some of the pills they put out there are fucking giant lol so hopefully you don’t have giant ones!

Lol... I think I did this several times when I was young and because of that, my parents don't even bother about buying drugs for me.

🤣😅, you know, you are not the only one in that boat. I am always laughed at whenever I want to take drugs and most times, I think I fall more ill thinking about how am going to take the drugs than when I was without drugs.

So sorry and get well soon

How often one gets malaria there? it seems like malaria is quite common there and it's like, one person could even get twice/month.

It's very common. We almost always get a malaria positive result anytime we take a lab test. Yes, one can get it even twice a month.
