In the hospital the doctors did several examinations such as chest x-ray, blood chemistry and a lumbar puncture, until they diagnosed me with bacterial meningitis. The doctors gave me an antibiotic and other drugs to kill the bacteria and after 15 days treatment I felt better. After six months of taking the medicine I slowly recovered but I have severe hearing problems in my right ear and trouble with my eyesight. I cant buy the hearing aid because of lack of money.
I'm still working but I easily become tired and my body is slightly out of balance.
This is my story and I'm still praying for my full recovery.
