Sick :[

I have become the host to a colony of amebas! Late last night I started to feel bloated and then it just got worse from there. I spent most of my night curled up on the bathroom floor.

Entamoeba histolytica


In the morning Cynthia our program director/mom brought me some meds. They helped a lot but I wasn't in any condition to go to class so I sat in my room and watched some movies.
I'm not sure where exactly I picked them up at, it could have been anywhere really. They can be transmitted via contaminated food, water, or infected people who don't wash their hands and then touch other things. I just really hope they go away soon, I don't want to spend my last week in Belize sick with these amebas.
