wormie

Chillin, originally uploaded by Louis the Pug.

So, I got real sick the other night. I actually passed out and had a mini seizure or something... it was pretty whack. Tim carried me inside and then I felt a rumble in the breadbasket... I hurled out some mean looking black stuff, but was a little better after that. Then about 4 am I did it again... off to the V-E-T!

We get there and the lucky folks there got to rummage in my hurl and poop. Best... job... ever. Anyways, they see no blood in it (I coulda told em that) and since I was all peppy and happy at that point, they let me go. Well, not before taking my temperature, and let's just say they must have left the oral thermometer on another desk. Yikes.

So, yesterday Tim and Kimberly get a call saying the results were in... I, Louis the Pug, have hookworm. Sooooo... I get 3 days of deworming medicine (not tasty) in my food (upgraded to mask said untasty medicine). Then we go 3 weeks, then we do the 3 day treatment again. Then the V-E-T gets to look at more of my poop.

Guess that monthly worm prevention pill took a month off, eh?

None of this explains my fainting episode though. I think it's because I'm so ripped and pumped muscularly that there isn't enough blood in my body to get to the brain from time to time... bam! Fainting!

You know what else causes fainting? The awesomeness of my hockey teams... both the Sabres and Wings won tonight as I convalesced. That's fancy talk for getting better, yo...
