Km 12 Carretera San Pedro, La Romana, 32000 San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic
I vacationed in the Dominican Republic about 4-5 years ago. We stayed at the Bahia Principle La Romano. I saw the deaths being reported & decided to tell my story. We ate & drank at the resort only. Nice vacation but I became severely ill right before we left. By the time we landed in Miami I was suffering from severe abdominal pain. I thought it may be bad food or a bug. Over the next few days it worsened. Doctor gave antibiotics but it did not help. Over the next 8 months I went to 12 doctors and through a battery of tests to no available. I finally landed with a doctor who says he doesn’t know what caused the initial pain. He said that whatever had caused the pain that it was so intense that my brain could not stop sending pain signals. I was put on meds to dull the pain & given a series of 12 to 15 injections in my abdomen each of the five times to stop the pain. It was extremely painful but after 2 1/2 years, many doctors & procedures & physical therapy I am now feeling better. I still have manageable effects. I cannot wear tight clothes or anything with zippers. I cannot exert myself to far or the pain returns. I cannot say definitively that it was caused by something at the resort but I truly believe it was. I will NEVER go back!!! | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Stomach Pain
