I was in the same spot 6 months ago , I got some iron tablets and I ' m feeling heaps better . I stopped taking them when I went to Japan , but after a few weeks back was feeling run down and picked them back up again . No regrets even with the blackgreen poop . Worth chatting to your doctor , I didn ' t realise how bad I felt until I felt better . You might be in a similar spot . <| sep |> Zombies they ' re okay if it ' s magic and not the main thing Why do cars always seem to be the only option for nonpedestrian transport ? Especially if fuel , as it so often is , is sparse . Someone should remember that people used to use horses , and bicycles are litterally everywhere in the modern world . Everyone is roaming around in small groups and being paranoid about everyone else . I mean , if that ' s human nature , how did civilisation ever start in the first place ? EDIT also , how does all levels of government just disappear ? I ' d think an apocalyptic scenario would be the time when people would look to the government more than usually .
