I was consulting a sangoma(witchdoctor) who gave me something to drink over a course of four months. Now i cant feel the effects of my medication or any other drugs for that matter. What could have been in the drink and how do I counter it?
Male | 20
The beverage you had from the traditional healer might have had substances that blocked your body from taking in or reacting to drugs. Sometimes specific plants or chemicals can do this. The things you are going through like not being affected by medication could be because of this blockage. I suggest you stop taking the beverage at once and go to see a doctor. They will be able to examine you and give you the right treatment.

Being tired and having so little energy can be your body still weakly getting over the chronic food poisoning. A lack of B12, D3, and iron is also the reason for drowsiness. Don't forget to eat healthy, drink enough water, and keep on with your yoga and meditation. Be patient, as healing is a lengthy process. Stress prevention is a significant point for your health.

Male | 50
For the past three days, you've had a fever, which suggests your body is fighting an infection. If the fever returns after taking medication, it's important to find out the underlying cause. A blood test can help identify the issue. Although you might not feel like engaging in sports or socializing, staying active can benefit your recovery. You did well in your last session, and your doctor has cleared you to continue treatment under their supervision.
