After arriving in Lusaka, and then traveling to Livingstone, I was struck by a powerful cold. So powerful that it laid me low for five days… and then has had a recuperation period going on four+ days. The combination of exhaustion and a slight fever got both my and Dustin’s concerns going — could it be malaria? (And wouldn’t that be ironic?) Having had malaria once before, I was not interested in having it again… But after consulting multiple websites, contacts in the malaria community, and a medical doctor, it seems that I have a common cold that has just hit me hard. What a way to spend my last week in Lusaka!

Some cold. Doctor visit in SF when you get home??
Julianna, sorry your last week was not so healthy, but so relieved that it’s not malaria again. Once is enough. Now, get over that cold/cough.
