An unintentional souvenier of our Indian trip.

Monday, February 13th, 2006

We have now been home from India for about three weeks and have discovered an unintentional “souvenier” which has been brought home from the trip. Head lice!

Head lice are very common in India and we ended up with them after the last trip as well. I knew this and began weekly treatments as soon as we landed in the country. We used a shampoo called “Medikar”. This took care of the problem during our last trip and I had hoped it would this time as well, but I just found the nasty little critters in my hair again. Looks like it is time to get more aggressive. Off I go to research it on the Net and see what information I can find.
