LARIAM®....


...also known as Mefloquine is the type of anti malaria pills that I need to take for my upcoming trip to India. So I was reading through the patient information sheet and it is like those commercials you see on tv for drugs that say side effects may include and they go on and on. Here are some of the possible side effects
-Severe anxiety
-Feelings that people are against them
-Hallucinations(ex. seeing or hearing things that aren't there)
-Depression
-Unusual Behavior
-Feeling Disoriented
-"Some patients taking 'Lariam' think about killing themselves, and there have been rare reports of suicides. It is not known whether 'Lariam' was responsible for these suicides."

Yeah kind of crazy I would hope that if they were responsible for the suicides then they would stop selling the pills.

People have also said that I will most likely experience crazy dreams keep checking the blog because if I have a crazy one I will share it with you. Maybe.

Anyways I should go hopefully any side effects I get will be minimal.

Missing people already

So this will be short my parents have friends over so I should go and be social. I just wanted everyone to know I am safe at home. I hope you are all doing well. I know it has only been just over 48hrs since I left school but I already miss my friends. It's hard when you see them all the time to then be at home and not be able to see them. Miss you guys and love you I will post more later.

My life

So I know my posting has been lacking lately and I am sorry for that.

So my room is clean and I really love having it that clean and am enjoying being in it a lot more often. Thanks to my friends Sarah W and Natashia who got it started for me. I then spent two hours finishing cleaning it. I even cleaned my closet. (Mum you would be proud {no pun intended} )

The trip plans are all coming together. I am excited to go. More info about Prayer Requests can be found on my prayer blog.

School is great and I am so thankful for the friends that I have made. This morning was my friend Erin's birthday so I made her breakfast in bed. I made her a Belgium waffle.(Tasha I have expanded and can make good egg sandwiches and now also waffles.)

Class this week is Missions prep which is nice to tie up the details and also give us a light homework week.

I am going to Creston hopefully on the 16th for Christmas and we might go to Summerland to my aunt's for the 23rd to the 26th. I am really hoping this happens otherwise it will be just me and my parents in Creston which will be a little odd for me.

I gotta go my neck is really sore and I need to do some reading before basketball and I also have night class tonight.

Take Care
