I am still on antibiotc for my scalp infection. Yes, this is the same one I got within the first two weeks of my trip. I took 17 days of amoxycillin, and 45 days of doxycyclin after suffering with the symptoms for a couple of weeks. Doxy worked wonders.
I would take the medicine for 15 days, twice a day. Things would quickly improve with the medication. However, two days after my treatment I would begin suffering from the same ailments. As of now, I have to take 5 pills every morning because I have another sickness in addition to my infections.
At first we thought it was malaria. However, after a negative test and not getting deathly ill we knew it was something else. I think I got the flu...two days before Christmas 😢.
It hit me hard because my immune system was (and still is) low due to the various infections. I don't understand why I get so sick here when I hardly get sick in America, but it is happening. Please continue to pray for me and everyone else. Both Daniel and Josh have had malaria 5 times now. Every week someone is sick with something. From stomach viruses, to infections, and malaria, there is no rest for the restless.
