Gastroentertis

INDIA | Sunday, 20 August 2006 | Views [450]

   

I had been sick for almost three weeks with a bad stomach, had been to see a doctor in Jaisalmer and was given a prescription for antibiotics. These were completely ineffective and I was very unwell when I reached Mumbai so we found the address for a hospital from Lonely Planet and went in.

My mother contacted your office and a lovely lady phoned me back and we told her what was happening. I was then admitted to Breach Candy Hospital where I filled in the forms that your company had faxed as did my doctor. I had lots of tests and things and was told I had accute gastroentertis. I stayed in hospital for four nights during which time I was treated with IV antibiotics and improved quickly.
