The notorious mid-service medical is upon us Group 9
volunteers. This three-day session
with our medical officer is famed for its necessary stool provision. We are required to provide three stool
samples to be tested for everything. Do you know how hard it is to do that on command? And then
get it into a cup? You don’t want
to know if you’ve never had to do it.
Anyways we arrive at our officer in groups of 6-8. Aside from the grueling medical exam
that checks for anything and everything, its also a psychological exam to make
sure our malaria medication hasn’t made as all fall off our rockers and be on
the verge of life crises. Its
brutal, I can say nothing fun about it except for the fact that it was a great
reason to be shut up in our office with some of my fellow PCVs with access to
free WiFi!!! Yet despite the total
access to Google we instead entertained ourselves by over dramatizing passages
from romance novels found in the PCV library and of course talked about our
stool samples. Know fact, PCVs
love to talk about their bowel movements, what exactly their puke looked like,
and why a pee bucket is better then a pit latrine. We have all fully embraced our primitive selves.
Good news, after three days of being poked and prodded, I’m
fairly healthy. A few minor
issues, nothing two gigantic shots in my butt cheeks can’t fix (as if my butt
wasn’t already embarrassed from the amount of pressure I was putting on it
already). Then it was back to
site, where I was promptly sick for two days and actually wanted to talk to
someone about how my stool was.
Such is life haha.

ReplyDeletefind somebody who rеаlly knows whаt they're talking about on the internet. You certainly know how to bring a problem to light and make it important. A lot more people should check this out and understand this side of the story. I was surprised that you'rе not more ρopulaг given that you
certainly pοssess thе gіft.
