Ok! Time to get back above the surface. I think I've eaten something really really bad, probably those barbecue sticks from the street in Santa Marta, as my energy level has been lower than I can ever remember, so drained, plus I've been running to the bathroom every fifteen minutes for approximately two weeks. Let me know if you need more details! We have just moved from Club de Pesca to Club Nautico as the water is much calmer here and we're in need of as flat sea with as less distraction as possible for the glassing project of the new bulkhead Alex has just started creating. We have such a long list of things to do before we can safely continue this trip across the Pacific, it's actually ridiculous. This boat is a demanding baby and although we love her to pieces, there are times we wonder what the hell have we taken upon our shoulders. But life was not made to be easy nor always so practical either so we just gotta keep on doing what we have to do and just find some sort of happiness within the process. I will have to speak more with you later as I shall now move out some stuff from the boat. Again. Don't we just love living aboard while going through an extensive refit? Fuck me! At least the hardest part is far behind us, I keep reminding (convincing?) myself..

Perhaps its time to consider seeing a Dr. to rule out any parasites. Feel better Taru.

Ha ha, jag såg de bilderna för ett tag sean Linda, jättemysigt! Man får alltid minnas att det här livet är ju självvalt trots allt så ingen idé att grina för mycket :)
Salmonella-, kampylo-, shigella- ja yersinia should be ruled out. Get a sample and take it to a lab.
Those can give You joint inflammations and some autoimmune dieases even treated with antibiotics.
Hope you feel better soon , nothing drains one more than an upset tummy!

"Let me know if you need more details!" Hilarious - I laughed out loud!
You could have simple enteritis and it will pass but the other suggestions are also possibilities - the ones mentioned above, giardia, etc. etc. If you get worse not better, you should see a doctor. Make sure to get lots of electrolytes and water and get well soon!
I agree, anytime something last longer than a week you should have it checked out. Keep your electrolytes up!
Life's not about the destination, it about the journey! Good luck!
if i was Alex's, i would be kicking your stubborn Finnish butt off to a Doc,,but i have experienced the stubborness of a Finnish woman, and it is hard work, no matter how strong the love is . giardia etc are not to be treated lightly, not easy to get out of your system. Goodluck Alex and good health to you Taru.
Thanks for all your concern. I'm feeling better already so no need for Dr right now but shall follow your advice if the illness would come back. Much water and chocolate is my medicine.
2 weeks? Oh wow you so need to see a doctor! Feel better!!!
