The year 2023 started on a good note but towards the end of the year which was this month and last month, I learned a great lesson that made me realize that Health is indeed wealth, and without good health to enjoy the wealth, the riches we have gathered is useless.
Sometimes in October, I noticed the color of my urine changed to yellow but I didn't make a big deal out of it, when I saw that it was the same for days, I decided to search Google for an answer and I saw that it could be as a result of infection but since I was not living a promiscuous lifestyle, I knew that was not it so I Just continue to live on with my yellow urine unbothered.
A week later, I started having a hot temperature and headache, I went to the pharmacy in my area, and the pharmacist prescribed malaria drugs for me which I took and the symptoms disappeared temporarily only to appear a few days later again, and I keep using malaria drugs anytime I do not feel well until in November when the malaria drug stopped working.
I had to call a nurse to treat me at home because I was bedridden, the nurse did a bad job because she also assumed I was suffering from malaria without carrying out any test even though I asked her why she would treat me without a test but she said I should not worry that I will be fine, I was in a very weak state that I could not argue with her.
She gave me 6 injections and 4 drips on the same day I questioned her for that as well, why all the medication in a day and not the usual 4 to 5 days but she again said they do it this way, I felt better for few days after this nurse treated me but the symptoms appeared again, more hot temperature, shivering due to feeling cold and body weakness, I had to call home and my sisters said I should go for a lab test which I did immediately and when the result came out I get to know I was suffering from typhoid and lack one pint of blood!
I went to the pharmacy again and they gave me typhoid drugs but I felt this drug was not working because I always woke up with a hot temperature and cold at the same time, I was not happy with my state of health, it affected my interaction with friends, it affected my work and also school because I started missing classes.
Nobody knew what I was going through and those who tried communicating with me would feel like I was snubbing or did not give them my attention like I used to not knowing I was battling with something that wanted to take my life.
When I could not bear it anymore, I called quduus1 to help me bring a typhoid herb that could cure me, I hated drugs right from when I was small and it was either injections or herbs that I took whenever I was sick so I knew it was going to work, fox came with the herb and I took it for few days and here I am sharing testimony that I am now very okay, no more hot temperature or cold, no body weakness and also my urine color is no longer yellow.
I am just glad the sickness did not take my life because what happened to some people was not even up to that and they lost their lives in the process.
To crown it all, I learned that life without good health is not a life, and when we are pursuing and amassing wealth, we should take proper care of ourselves too because those riches are useless without good health to enjoy them.
I am going to sleep well, eat well, and take good care of myself henceforth, all that I am working for, losing sleep over won't matter anymore if I die untimely due to illness.
I just felt if I had taken proper care of myself when I first noticed the signs of illness, it would not have become so serious to the extent I could not leave the bed, My nonchalant attitude got me there and I would never joke with my health or take any health issues lightly again.
Just call me Burl.
