2-3 Days after Reinfection with 10 more Hookworms

Today is 3 days since getting reinfected. Yesterday, I woke up very happy. But by mid-morning, a bone-settling fatigue set in, but in a nice way. I just wanted to lie on the ground next to the chicken coop, so I did. I was very, very relaxed. It felt like my bones were soup. I lay there until I had to get up to meet someone over a new job, and walking downtown with my computer strapped to my back was a challenge. Caffeine didn’t help.

My husband is sick with a cold, as are my daughters. So I may be fighting a virus on top of the hookworms. Always compounding variables when it comes to me.

I’m very afraid that it’s all going to stop working, reinfection be damned. All I can do is wait and see. I’m trying to think positively – why not think it is going to work, and I just need to be redosed every 4-6 months? If I feel this good every time, I will be delighted to take my “medicine”.

Now we’ll see what the day is like. Will I accomplish anything? Or just sink back into the ground? Thank God I’m not a firefighter or something. I wouldn’t want to rely on me.
