Liz update 4

Yesterday (Friday 28th May) Matt and I went to the centre for tropical diseases in Oxford to get the results of my blood tests. Although one test has yet to come back (bilharzia), everything else was clear. This is good news. They have asked me to come back in around a month’s time (when we’re back in the area) to get the final result and to check how my health is continuing. However, from the other tests they could already tell that I don’t currently have a major infection. So, as I am starting to feel stronger we will see how I get on for the next few weeks. I haven’t been sick for almost a month and haven’t felt too nauseous. I have still felt tired but have been able to manage this with resting and have been able to do just about everything I have wanted to do. So it seems like whatever was wrong may have been starting to right itself in the last month, which is really good news. So, for now, we are moving base to my parents in Devon and are hoping to continue to recover well!
