Fighting

So I got sick again for the 4th weekend in a row and I'm fighting to get better.  I'm trying to get an appointment with a specialist asap, but the earliest date so far is next week :(  I'm trying to figure out what's wrong and I'm back on medicine to get rid of bacteria.  Yesterday I had some of the, well, you know lots of trips to the bathroom.  And, I threw up :(  I was already feeling pretty nauseous so I couldn't really eat much, but I took the parasite pill anyway, and about 25 minutes later, it came back up.  So, I gotta start that over, but I'm worried because I don't wanna throw up again.  I'm just taking the bacteria medicine right now.  I feel a lot better than yesterday.  My body feels a little weak, but I think it's just because I need to eat more. 

I'm hoping to hear back from PC today about coming in either tomorrow or Wednesday.  Hopefully soon!  Our Close of Service (COS) conference is this week, along with my language exam on Wednesday morning.  I'm kinda nervous about that since I use English so much with my teachers, and all PCVs I encounter.  It's just hard as an English PCV to keep up my Spanish, but I'm glad that I live with a host family still for that reason (among others).  Edwin refuses to acknowledge me when I speak to him in Spanish, but since I told him I need to practice for my exam, he said we could talk a little in Spanish.  haha

Anyway, I haven't noticed any specific foods that have possibly made me sick and I've been drinking a lot of purified water lately.  I just don't know.  I hope I can enjoy this weekend with all the other PCVs in my group at the beach :)
