I am so delicate. Physically and emotionally. Well right now, physically. I get sick like 12 times a year. I have the weakest immune and I catch things really fast. This year was a bit different because I had started gymming. And it's not wrong when they say that exercising keeps a lot of diseases away. I can vouch for that. Minor things like regular headaches, body aches and so on were beginning to vanish for me. And I was so active. Then came March and April, my exam months and slowed things down. Following that, I went off to India which pretty much killed my entire gym routine. Life is lazy in India. You have servants for everything. A servant for washing dishes, washing clothes, cleaning and dusting and some people have actually servant quarters in their house because they cook as well! So, what do the ladies do in India? I wonder! I was also beginning to enjoy that lifestyle, but that's okay.. I mean I went for a vacation and it was good for a change. But people who live like this everyday and practice no physical exercise are going to be darn lethargic.
Anywhooo... getting to the main point, I am sick again :( And not only me, my mom and brother as well! We have never been this sick after coming back from India. And I mean, never. This is the first time. We take so many precautions but still something or the other happens! We took travel advice from our family doctor before we left. I have been eating malaria pills from the last 7 weeks, JUST IN CASE. We took typhoid injections before we left, JUST IN CASE. We got all our blood work done, JUST IN CASE. That's what you go through with having a nurse mommy! Despite all that... I still had to find something to get sick with. My stomach has been upset for more than a week :( I was vomiting day before yesterday and I was on Gravol all day yesterday. I have been told not to eat anything as I visited the doctor yesterday. I am supposed to be on clear fluids such as apple juice. I have to give some samples in about the next 30 minutes. The lab is a 15 minute walk from my place. So, I thought I would blog about it before I get lazy again.
I am gonna go off and drop these samples, meanwhile... you guys have a sickness-free, bright and sunny Friday! :) Cheers.
