Down with sickness
I got my test results back on the infection I've got in my ear. Turns out instead of being a standard nostril-variety golden staph colony it's some novel medication resistant bacteria normally only found in hospitals which is interesting because I'm normally not found in hospitals. Because of the doctor's pronounced Polish accent I couldn't really understand the latin name he quoted for the infection so I can't look it up on wikipedia, which is kinda annoying. So now I'm on antibiotics with the following warning on the packet:
Take ONE tablet TWICE a day Take on an empty stomach, at least half an hour before food or two hours after food Do NOT take dairy products, antacids, iron or calcium supplements within 2hrs of this medicine *Avoid excessive sunlight or sunlamps until all finishedThat's verbatim. Apparently the pharmacist knows what a comma is but not a period. Two things interest me on there. I'm not allowed dairy products for two hours after taking the pill. Two hours without coffee. And I sorta should be worried about the sunlight thing, but I've never really been one for direct light anyway.
