I took a lot of medication with me to Uganda. Infections and ailments - especially "traveler's diarrhea" - seemed inevitable. But apart from an annoying cough that subsided once I adjusted to the air quality, I remained in good health.
No health warnings are typically issued when it comes to travels within the so-called developed West. But after a few weeks in a few cities and states, I've got projectile emissions coming out both ends.
The irony provides some comic relief as I "weep fluids" (as one medical website so aptly describes). But I'm plenty ready for the hilarity (and the weeping) to come to an end.
