RE: Perhaps my best photos of this sunbird.

Eish, and these cold fronts somehow got to me and I was sick like a dog for a couple of days. Only beginning to recover now. Still under the weather. The cold and rainy weather does not help with the situation in any way! I hope that there is some light at the end of the tunnel with respects to the car.

Sort:  

Sick as a dog? Did you go for the flu injection? I remember that I got so sick a few years ago, and after a near death experience, or at least it felt like that. a quack put me on the flu injection. Never had it again, and every year I get the new version. Maybe something for you to consider.

Nope, I have a stomach bug and the thing does not want to leave me be. I might try and "fast" the thing out, go a couple of days with only water to get the stomach right. Tried medicines and the lot, and it does not want to leave me alone. Now, I have to try some drastic measures! (Drastic is a bit dramatic, as I usually do 18-24 hour fasts, so it is nothing new to me.)

Ouch, a stomach bug is definitely not a holiday, as the two of us also had it a few times now. Nausea, diarrhea, cramps and a lot of other issues. It's a horrible thing and even fasting doesn't help. Plain white toast with a bit of butter and no dairy and only water helps a bit, but one just has to suffer it out. Medazine nausea tablets help for nausea, and the best for stomach cramps is Scopex tablets. Bicarb takes the toxin away.
Hope that you get better soon.

Thank you so much! So true, and yes I found out that even the fasting does not help. Everything that I tried so far has not yielded much success in any form or shape. But slowly getting there. I can still feel the effect of eating something that does not sit right (in the stomach) even after so many weeks being "fine". Even this morning, when I thought everything was fine, I still felt the stomach aches and nausea. But we will see. Maybe I should eat just toast for a while.

Glad that you are making a slow progress in the healing matter, and a strange thing took place. Marian was also riddled with stomach pains, and it got so bad that it even affected her chest. So, I put her onto the pro-biotics that I have to take every day, and voila. All pains are gone !LOLZ

Oh I will remember this. I usually just eat copious amounts of yoghurt and that sometimes helps, but sometimes you need the stronger things like the tablets for a bigger effect with more punch!

I take an Entiro pro-biotic every morning, and it is doing wonders for my stomach. They also use it in the hospitals, and you can buy it over the counter at Clicks. They sell a double pack that is a great saving.
Try it and thank me later.

For sure! I remember always getting them when you go on anti-biotics, but I will get me some when I visit the shops again. Sorry for the late reply, but as I told you I had some interesting turn of events! But I am safe and sound in Pretoria for a while now.
