I'm tested positive!

Oh crap! I've just been tested positive for malaria here in DR Congo.

I've been feeling slightly feverish and having dry throat for a couple of days. Taking no chances, I went to a hospital called Heal Africa in Goma yesterday. The result came back this morning and I'm indeed having malaria, though it's a less serious form. Now I have to take 3 anti-malarial tablets in the next 24 hours.

Tomorrow I will climb volcano Nyiragongo.
