Down With Nasty Fever But Manage To Squeeze In — To Sneeze In? — Some Macro Shots

August 15, 2008

I’m down with quite a nasty fever since the past week or so, but the worst is over now. Am now recovering at home.

The fever that hit me, not sure what it was, was quite bad. I was bedridden for three days — with throbbing head, aching joints, feeling cold and burning at the same time — before it finally subsided.

But the nasty cough remained and I had to see the doctor for prescription.

I told the doctor that I might need antibiotic as well but he said, that wouldn’t be necessary. Okay, I said. You are the doctor, I didn’t say.

So he gave me a bottle of cough syrup — shake before use, the bottle says — and an assortment of coloured tablets. I took them and pray that the medicine works because if it doesn’t, I won’t ever return to that clinic again.

I don’t like to be on medication; I guess nobody does. However, I did find the medicine useful in other ways other than for medication… as a subject for “medicine macro photography.”
