The Solution
The doctor is here with a solution!
Seems i have a very common virus, that my body isn't used to. So i suffered greatly but currently my white blood cell count isn't up so all must be good except for the 30 times a day toilet run and liquid and blood coming from the wrong places....
The solution is non-medical approved tablets that can only be purchased via his surgery.
I smell something fishy but what can i do...
Large hospital and some dodgy doctors... can't say i didn't get warned.

Admitted to Emergency @ Mactan Doctors Hospital
Not really an emergency but what else can we do. Pay the money and they will help i'm sure...hah
The nurse weighs me first up and i have only lost 3 kilos in 4 days that's no biggie, i didn't want those kilos anyway. On the bed i don't really show signs of dehydration despite fluid exiting my body at an alarming rate.
My urine is only a light yellow and the pinch test seems to suggest my fluid is up but that's only my thoughts.
Next a male nurse hooks me up to a drip, very quick and painless but the sticky tape used to hold the IV line must be the budget kind or i'm more hairy than i think i am.
Next up some painkillers to help with the cramps, shortly after the pain level drops so do my eye lids and i get a good afternoon nap.

Dia-Tabs Not working anymore
Dia-tabs the tablets you take to stop the waterworks malfunctioning. 2 tablets at first then 1 every 4 hours untill stool is firm.
It's been a few days now and they seem to have no effect. I'm going every 15min like clockwork. At this point i'm right off food too.
After going 12 times before lunch and i haven't drank that much water i should be well de-hydrated but my pee is clear so that's kind of odd. Tuesday is a write off! Back to bed.

Road side food an hour after landing
I wonder how long that meat has been exposed and at room temp...
Tables everywhere of family's enjoying their late dinner, a few tables of young ones, a few old white guys and a loud TV in the corner. Seems some things never change.
The rice looks fresh and things look clean, time to eat.
