Let's Roll Back Malaria By Regular Check-up, Take Care Of Yourself

On arrival many couldn't even recognize me, thanks to my very supportive parent, Steemit, and the business I started a few months ago. Though it is still in its developmental stage, every corner I freaked out in, people kept saying, "Long time no see. Where have you been?" This actually reminds me of the old school, new school rhymes, and my reply to some very close friends would have been, "I have been to London to see the queen." Queen for what? Queen for medicine, medicine for what? Medicine for co-co-cough... no, not cough this time, in general malaria, the cough was just a symptom.

Less than 96 hours ago I left town to town; I went back home to help in some income-generating business. Going back home is just a 30-minute journey. Many may be wondering why I don't go back often; I go with the motivational speaker's quote. Leave your comfort zone, as it may be the reason for your stagnation. Let's leave that aside; it's been more than 3 days now, and I don't feel like returning back to Uyo. The reason is because I was a bit down in health; it's not serious. My immunity level is high; that is why I am not hospitalized.

Let us roll away, malaria. I felt some symptoms a few weeks ago; some drugs were actually taken with a prescription but without a test; therefore, the accuracy of tackling the main causative organism was actually slim. On returning, I became down after down; the energy released ignited the sleeping disease, and they began their work. I felt some joint pain, and then fever and shivering began. I felt cold on a very warm day, malaria Ohhhhhh, I knew if I didn't fight this, it may bring me down. Hospitals open every day, but I had to endure till today to get all the necessary things done, the vital science, tests, and all the necessary stuff.

So I came in here, got the vital signs done, and the nurse told me my BP is below normal, 100/50. I was a bit tensed up, then made some inquiries from Dad, and the result of this was because I vomited about thrice yesterday and couldn't take anything in, I was more than feeble. That moment when you feel like everything will become normal in a blink, but nah, you have to face it; no miracle.

After the test, I was told that there was so much malaria in my blood, Eweeeeh ohhhh. I don't know how this is counted, but I believe them. I have been myself these days—the sluggishness, the weakness, the inability to stay up at night, and a whole lot of misnomers. The bell rang, and it was my time to go in to meet the consultant. Drugs were prescribed alongside injections; a few drugs were given to me, and a few after taking them, I began to see goosebumps. I am recovering, guys. Let's try to roll back malaria by regular checkups and following drugs.
