Immune system fail

I don't know how I went from swollen glands and borderline strep and aching flu -> to blocked tear ducts and allergies -> to pink eye. 

Time period of this transformation: 3 days

You'd think I was a sickly child all over again. 

I would kill for some hot, gooey cinnamon  rolls right now. Or Ramen. 

A big lettuce, tomato, mushroom, kalamata olive, red onion, cranberry salad with feta and balsamic vinegar would probably heal me instantly.

And the first doctor only prescribed me Ibuprofen. The chances of me dying in Argentina have increased tenfold. 

I console myself with "at least I don't have malaria and typhoid and am lying in some forgotten Italian hospital." Ahem 

Should have had my apendix removed before coming. That would be pretty bad... I wonder, if my apendix burst, would I have to wait 3-4 hours for the doctor to make a house call? 

And now everything's blurry so I'll stop.
