    Isn't that a Country song?

    Good point on the possible need for emergency medical attention. Have you seen the doctors over there?

    Just take care please gish.
    I don't want any of our family here sick.
    Good advice on the traveling too. I know it'll be hard but you need to stay safe.

    Update:

    The pain has been subsiding recently, but I can still feel it. I'm going to go ahead and make the trip overseas tomorrow. Wish me luck. If no one hears from me before January 6th, I'm dead. If that happens, I want all my rep to be given to charity.

    Be very very very careful going to Africa without making sure what this is. If it is the start of Hepatitis A, B or C, you will not be a happy person with no insurance in another country. Remember Gish they are not like us. Just a word of caution Bro.

    As far as finding out what truely is going on with you much more info is needed to try to figure out what is going on. From Hepatitis to possible gall bladder problems (often misdiagnosed as liver). I have over 7 years as a paramedic when I was in college and hundreds and hundreds of hours in the ER when not taking 911 calls so maybe I can be of some help.

    Feel free to PM me if you want me to help.

    Regards

    Gerry

    Take care Gish, have a safe flight and enjoy the wedding.

    I don't know if you've traveled, but I can tell you from experience that what they say about the Third World and water is the absolute truth. I've had dysentery while traveling and I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. Since you're eating mostly fruits and vegetables nowadays, you have to be extra careful. Make sure that everything you eat is cooked.

    Don't rely on them saying "don't worry, it's fine." Once, I was with a friend in Cancun. We went to a restaurant and the waiter told us that they use purified water for everything, even to wash the dishes. The waiter brought out a couple of salsas, one that looked really good, but wasn't cooked. I refrained, but my friend ate it. He got it, I didn't.

    Then, another time I was in the Venezuelan Andes and they told me that the water is pure, from the mountain. So, like a fool, I drank a glass. My G-d, the horror that ensued.

    You don't need that on top of what you already have.

    I wish you the best. Concur on Miaman's advice, be very careful on what you eat. Your stomach is not in the best condition to handle that kind of food.

    Im in south africa now. I've been very careful of what i've eaten so far. i wont drink any water, even if they say its pure. only canned soda or orange juice. i have been feeling better recently, but i dont want a relapse while i'm out of the states.

    its pretty nice in cape town. got some great pictures to share, but not all right now.

    pictures in next post.

    i got some pictures of a baboon yesterday. he was a angry baboon. i tried to provoke him into attacking our vehicle, but he ignored me. nonetheless, they are dangerous because of their big fangs. but i think i could have taken him down. that was on our way to the cape of good hope, which is the southern-most location in africa. its where the indian and atlantic oceans meet. i took many pictures and will share them when i get back to the states. but the pictures cannot even begin to describe the insane beauty of this place. its very high in the air over a tall cliff. the region is very mountainous. i wish i lived on that mountain. south africa makes california look like Iowa.
