Malaria...? Me...? Most likely!
Last week, I managed to become quite ill (fever, headache, fatigue, muscle aches, and a number of other malaria-like symptoms). I went to the hospital to have a blood test taken, and though the test for malaria came back negative, it still seems as if malaria was the culprit because as soon as I began taking anti-malaria medication the fever (et al) reduced dramatically. Others noted that when you take anti-malaria medication, the test results are often inaccurate. I experienced all of the malaria-associated symptoms along with the same pattern of recovery related to malaria...so it seems fairly clear that it was indeed malaria. Regardless, I am now well again (besides remaining very tired) and continue to serve God in all I do. Although, my dislike for mosquitoes has now overtaken my dislike for ants! :)
