More than falling ill what bothers him is the sedentary lifestyle forced upon him by his sickness. His inactivity makes him feel incapacitated in some way, which induces in him the fear of losing his wealth earned through long and hard work.
As long as he can go about his work uninterrupted by his illness, he pays no attention to it (Like Ars) He acts only when he finds his movements restricted. Then he seeks a doctor's help to remove disease (interference).
He tells: He hates being sick He has been taking all the precautions since the time he last fell ill to avoid falling sick again, for he hates to be kept away from work on account of his illness.
When he fell sick in spite of all his efforts he is cross with himself for his body's weak resistance.
Even when the disease got him for the first time and the body hasn't had the chance to get immune.
He says, "I do not even want to fall sick. I want to stay fit and working." He also hates being treated as a sick person.
He says, I do not understand how I fell sick after all those precautions I took.
I think beside the treatment for my disease I need to have something to raise my body's immunity.
I can't seem to tolerate even a little change.
