Update: This is why you should be proud of me...

So, I still maintain that you should be proud of me for being brave and trying new foods. However, as I spent all of Sunday night/Monday morning in the bathroom, I do not recommend that you follow my example of bravery. Thankfully, I am now doing much better, thanks to UDLA´s clinic and mexican style shots. However, I had to laugh when the doctor prescribed me a few meds and then proceeded to explain that while I am on the meds I should avoid any spicy foods, anything fatty (which I´m asssuming includes cheese), and anything citrusy (everything here is generally doused in lime juice). So, I´m not sure what is left to eat... all I can say is I´m going to really appreciate eating whatever I want when this is all over. However, I can´t complain, because apart from a bit of mild sickness my first weekend, this is the first time I´ve been sick here. And let me tell you, I think everyone here has been sick lately, Mexicans and gringos alike.
