GUACALA!

Well folks, here's the news....I have PARASITES living inside me :( Blastocystis hominis to be correct, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blastocystis This is the reason I have been so ill for a week....

After spending the entire day at the doctor/ER (thank you Lucia, Amanda, Sarah, and Amber!), I now have some medicine that will hopefully clean them out of my system....but it still sucks until that happens.

Also, unfortunately we are leaving for Trinidad on Wednesday, so my illness will carry into that experience :(

By the way...Claudia also has parasites. Major bummer for us.

I should be eating green platano soup for a week or so....

Here's a pic of my new "friends" (as Lucia so lovingly calls them...)
