That explains that

Yesterday was the first day in three weeks I haven't been in pain. Hooray! My appetite finally came back and my kidneys don't hurt. I still have a low grade fever every once in a while, and accompanying chills. The physical side effects have not been too bad. Last year when I took Bactrim I had, among other conditions, a case of oral thrush so bad I could barely eat. Currently I have an odd smell in my nose, and a small sore in the corner of my mouth (did you know those are partially caused by fungus?). But then I see this:

Ciprofloxacin has highly pronounced side-effects in people suffering from panic disorder or/and depression. There have been reported cases of psychosis, suicide attempts, panic attacks and acute anxiety, all occurring during or shortly after ciprofloxacin treatment. Patients with previous or current psychiatric conditions, are prone to experiencing this type of side-effect. Caution is highly advised.
Oh goody. That explains why I don't really want to be alive right now. :\ They're also making me very, very, very tired. I should be studying right now but I can barely focus.

Two more finals to go. When I am done with this semester, I am looking forward to:

• Not being sick anymore
• Hiking
• Going to the beach
• Cleaning my kitchen
• Dry cleaning my comforter and jackets
• Getting summer clothes
• Getting clothes that fit since I lost weight
• Running
• Beach seines
• Going to Canada
• Working on a terrarium
• Doing a Buddhist retreat
• Seeing Patton Oswalt at the Largo
• Seeing friends
• Having a BBQ at my parents' house and inviting my old high school friends
• Camping
