Barstools and Dreamers,

I second papashine and will throw this into the mix... http://www.drweil.com/u/QA/QA326637/ ...just to make your decision even tougher.

Good luck in finding the info you need to make a good choice.

Hon

edit to include:
http://www.caribbeannetnews.com/2004/07/02/situation.htm
quote Dr. Vildo Marin, minister of health and communications of Belize "malaria cases dropped from 10,000 in 1993 to 1,000 in 2003"
So be sure that any information/recommendations you find reflect the latest data.

We found a new brand of malaria pills. They are supositories. I can't stand em but they are very mild and work just as well. I'm trying avoid taking this particular brand. Someone recommended a small dab of aramis cologne. NO LIE! They said it works up to 2 hrs.

Malarial suppositories and Aramis cologne. I'm not sure I can reconcile the method of application.

Surely ya'll have heard of these. The guy that gave them to me said that most people in Belize use these. The only thing that confuses me is that the pills come in different sizes. Anywhere from a toostie roll to a tic tac. Plus, you have to take one 6 times a day. Parden the pun but, It's a pain in the ass... in more than one way.
Please tell me SOMEONE knows what I am talking about. I'd rather be safe than sorry so I start this process last week.
