I got sick 4 hours into a flight from ACC to IAH after being told by the flight attendant that I was the only passenger in first class to eat the vegan meal. The rice smelled odd but I had already taken a bite. I was so nauseous all flight but eventually vomitted the meal and only the meal in flight. A doctor was paged in flight because I became very week. By the time we landed on July 13, I had to be taken via ambulance from the tarmac to the hospital. I had bloating, diarrhea, and intermittent constipation for 2 months. United has ignored all my reports to their Risk Management Department despite the fact that I sent over 400 pages of medical records from July 13-end of September on two occasions. All emails and calls are ignored. United offered $200. My medical bills are well over $1000 and that doesn't include the ambulance which I haven't been billed for yet. Plus lost work, lost wages, pain and suffering. Yeah United owes big time. My doctors have even offered to write a letter if this goes to court. Sad United. Own up to the issue!. It happened on July 12 | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Bloating, Constipation
