The Importance of Prioritizing Health: A Personal Experience.

As our lives are important to us, so also should our health be important to us, never neglecting the fact that we need to spend money on our health even if we don't want to spend the money. I don't think there is anything too much or too little to spend on your health because it is the most important thing to use. They say good health is underestimated when you have it because, when you don't have control over your health anymore you will understand that you really need to take charge of your life.

It happens that I was too busy paying attention to something else instead of paying attention to my health. On Wednesday afternoon, I was at home just doing my usual thing when there was a change in the weather, and suddenly I started feeling cold, and I was thinking it was because of the change in weather. So I neglected it, and the cold became serious, but I went to the pharmacy to buy paracetamol to reduce the cold and the headache it was causing.

After taking the paracetamol, it reduced to some extent to the point that the point that I was having an assurance that it was feeling well. Yesterday, I decided to go visit my friend, and I left home in the morning. But one funny thing is that when I was going, I was feeling cold again, but I was thinking the weather in the morning caused it. When I got there, my body became so cold, and my feet were freezing. I knew I was in for it.

Within a short time, the cold became so severe that I was shivering so well that I could not stand on my feet at all. Immediately, my friends had to go get me malaria drugs to use because I didn't want to get them before. It was just like an imagination to me until reality held me. At the time they got the drugs, I was so weak and couldn't do anything. Food now became something I could not eat, but I had to force myself because I would use my drugs.

Immediately after I used the drugs, I felt asleep and by the time I woke up, the cold had gone, but I still have migraines, so I continued to use my drugs till this morning, and I am now feeling better than last days. Our health should never be something we neglect, because if we neglect it, we will surely pay the price for it, so take care of yourself when you are supposed to do so and don't wait until you break down totally before attending to it. It might be too late by then.
