You know it’s about to be a good time when you’re in the travel section of a website and you start reading things like:
Traveler’s Health
Vaccinations
Yellow Fever
Anti-Malaria
Bednets
You know all the fun shit that let’s you know you’re REALLY traveling…
Oh the CDC!
Looks as though for Thailand I’m good. Considering I got shot up before India, and was turned into a human pin cushion by my Japanese clinic. Dr. Kawaii still rocks!
It’s our impromptu trip to Cambodia I have to worry about. Off to find some more doxycycline…

Um… yeah. Little thing about doxycycline. I took it – and got malaria. Not pleasant. Turns out its meant to make the symptoms milder, but does not prevent contraction. It’ll make your skin nice though. Its more expensive, but if youre going to get anything I would go with Malarone.
I was told to stay away from Malarone from my best friend who is a doctor. I also took Doxy for 5 weeks when traveling in India and it worked with my body well, so it’s the only one I trust. I think everyone’s body is different. I also like it because people use it for a wide range of things, like acne, so it’s better studied.
You, on the other hand, should get your hands on Malarone for sure!
