Hello all,
So I guess I should beat the parental units in telling you this story... If you have a faint stomach, please close the window now.
I've been feeling sick off and on during this trip from eating. I just thought that it was part of the food I've been eating and getting used to the area.
Then came this week...it went down hill fast. I've been pretty tired and weak. Then, I found out in a very personal way that I have worms. You probably don't want to know how.
The question that has been ravenging my mind now...is if these worms are Ecuadorian or Kenyan and how many do I have. A fear of mine now is...Is this medicine strong enough?
But in the end, I'm building up immunity, so this is only making me stronger. Yes, I am careful what I eat. It's just that parasites are common here. My host mom wasn't even surprised that I got them.
