Finally feeling better!

After a week of urgent bathroom trips that culminated in a night of cold chills and vomiting, I finally broke down and went to the doctor yesterday.  Looks like I did pick up some kind of virus in Mexico.  I started Cipro yesterday and feel much better!  Hallelujah for drugs! 

Glad you are feeling better! Cipro will get er done.  Have a great week!  Ida

Cipro should kick that icky stuff to the curb! I'm so happy you're feeling better.

I do hope you're getting your fluids down to replace everything that was lost. Also, I hope you'll go to the doctor a little quicker next time. Those foreign bugs can lay you out flat in a short time!

Several years ago, I was hospitalized for several days for this very reason. I ended up with shigella ... which shocked all the docs and hospital staff ... and had to be reported to the state health department. I didn't drink the water, either!

HaHa! Just sent you an email asking how you were doing. Glad they were able to give you something!!

Kim,
 
I thought you kicked that like a week ago!  i'm so sorry to hear you've been feeling rough!  Glad to hear you're gonna get better!

Glad you are feeling better. I have been to Guatemala 3 times and each time I was lucky and did not catch anything. Last time I stayed with a family and there was no bottled water available so the only thing available to eat and drink was what they provided me. It was outside of the city so I even had to use the unfiltered tap water for brushing my teeth. I thought for sure I would be sick that time but got lucky again.

Glad you got that Cipro and you're starting to feel much better, Kim~ Hope you completely kick it soon!

omg leave it to you to pick up some foreign bug! just kidding!! i'm glad you are feeling better!!

Gotta love Cipro.  My doc always told me I was more likely to pick up a virus on the plane than at the hotel.

I'm glad they were able to give you meds to kick the virus.  Glad you're feeling better.
