On the 27th I fell sick, it started with my vomiting a lot all day along with a slight fever and giddiness. So we decided to go see a doctor as it had gotten to the point where I couldn&#8217;t drink a sip of water without throwing up. Instead of going to a regular doctor we decided to go to Swami Ramdev&#8217;s clinic where they prescribe aurvedic medicines. We did this because we thought that antibiotics usually have side effects and aurvedic medicines have helped me before.<\/p>\n<p>The guy over there looked at me, poked a pen in my palm a couple of places and in my stomach and told us that I have hyper acidity and gave me some really horrible tasting medicines to eat. At first they helped and I stopped throwing up but today I started getting worse again with the same symptoms as before along with abdominal pains. <\/p>\n<p>So this time we went to an actual doctor and got a whole lot of tests done because the aurvedic medicines had failed. This one did a lot more poking in my stomach and took my BP etc. So far we have no idea whats wrong. the Initial diagnosis is that I could have either of the following: Acute Appendicitis, Early version of Hepatitis, Mild Jaundice or a intestinal infection. <\/p>\n<p>So far we have ruled out the Appendicitis after an ultra-sound. I will know more when the results of the rest of my tests come back. Lets see. I am getting tired of throwing up. <\/p>\n<p>Had to give blood for the tests. Hated that part. (I am scared of needles). <\/p>\n<p>Well this is all for now. Here&#8217;s hoping for the best. <\/p>\n<p><b>Update (Sep 2nd): <\/b> Well&#8230; its official. I have an intestinal infection. Taking antibiotics so that should help. On the other hand my hemoglobin is at 16.1 which is good news. Must be because of all the spinach I eat. \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Suramya<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The past two weeks have been interesting (as in the Chinese curse).
