so, DH and i were in india last week. i was fine but he caught a little travelers trots. he took his cipro, and recovered ok. but he didn't go to work the last 2 days with a vague feeling of rubber knees and brain fog. very, very rare for him to miss work. but he decided to go in today.
i just talked to him on the phone. he tells me that this morning he looked in the mirror and realized he was wearing a smirk that he did not put there. there was a little numbness in one cheek. but it passed in a few minutes, so he goes to work. at least he did take some aspirin when he got there. but there was some right on the other side of the mirror he was looking in.
i had to tell him that he was a complete dumbass, and he should get his dumbass over to the emergency room. or at least call his doctor and see if he can get in. i had to threaten him. i told him that i would be very quick to pull the plug on him.

he is an awful hard head about this kind of stuff. when his gall bladder started going bad he spent several months convincing himself that everyone has blazing heartburn every day. i thought he learned his lesson from that one. when they finally did take it out, after a couple of attacks that literally knocked him over, it was awful. the surgery took an extra hour+, and his pain afterwards was horrendous. that was a few years ago, tho, so i guess it has worn off.

is this a guy thing?
