I just found out that when my bag came unzipped in the airport I lost a few malaria pills.
Considering my luck with that fun disease I ventured over to the Canadian High Commission to find out about seeing a doctor here and booked an appointment for today, but now the cost of having my camera stolen and the hassle of claiming that back on my insurance 4 months from now made the 115 pound doctor fee (and second insurance claim) look very unfriendly. I figure I have enough pills to get me through to mid-August, the problem being that you're supposed to continue taking them for a month after leaving Africa, and I will be extending my trip by a week to go back to Dublin, so it's risky. I think I should be ok though considering that I will be heading home then and have access to my doctor and better medical care.
Blah.
