I have been plagued by a cough that won’t shift for the last 10 days. It is exhausting and is forcing me to take it easy, not travel, socialise less, stay in and rest, which is all v. frustrating. Menpao cough [I hate the cough]! I also braved a trip to the doctor, where I learned two things – I have lost about 6 kilos since being here, and medication is prescribed in abundance. I left the clinic with a goody bag containing cough syrup, antibiotics, anti-histamines, vitamin c tablets, multivitamins along with doctor’s orders to avoid at all costs cold showers, fans, air conditioning and other draughty conditions. In which case I’ll be going in for heat stroke and invariably another tonne of meds. Vicious circle. Antibiotics are kicking in and I hope the evil lurgie will be gone by the weekend.
