April 2018. We stayed for a week and on the last night we had dinner at a Japanese restaurant. I went back to the room around nine as we were leaving the next day. By 330 am I was so violently Ill I was crawling on the... See More bathroom floor. I was with two friends and was the only one that got sick. I was deathly Sick. I was staying in a different building than they were and called the one girl at 4 in the morning out of desperation as I was vomiting and had diarrhea so bad I couldn’t stand. She came from her building and called a cart to take me to where they had what they referred to as a doctor. It was a room with no bathroom. I was on the floor throwing up in a garbage can and shaking violently. I asked for a blanket and they gave me a wet towel from under the air conditioner. She ( the pretend doctor ) gave me something but I was throwing up so violently. I knew I had to go to the hospital. My friend called a taxi but it never came and I finally just told them to call an ambulance. I went to the hospital in an ambulance. I got IV and two types of medicine. I have no idea what it was but they put it in my IV and the doctor said he thought with that I could make it back to the States. I was flying home that day and I was in a different airline than they were so I was alone. At ten am I took a taxi from the hospital to the resort. I had called my friend and the hotel allowed her to pack my things. I then took a shuttle to the airport. I don’t know how I even survived. It was a blistering 97 degrees and on a Saturday. I had extra tsa screening. I was barely standing. They brought me a chair on the jet bridge and kept asking if I was going to be able to go on the flight but I knew I had to get back to the states. It was by the Grace of god I made it home. On my layover in atlanta I literally couldn’t even stand in line to get a drink. I slept on the chairs. When I got back to Pennsylvania my daughter had to take me to the emergency room again where they gave me Morphene and Bactrim and promethazine and several things for diarrhea. I was off work for over a week. I still don’t know how I made it home but I still don’t feel like my body has recovered. I literally thought I was going to die in the DR. I didn’t realize that so many other people were also very sick at the same time and same resort. I was just reading an article that said there were ten reported falling Ill in 2018 and I decided I should share my story as I was also there in 2018. As a side note. I was 58 years old and hadn’t even had a doctor for 43 years. I was always the picture of health. Since then I have never felt like I fully recovered. If there’s any doubt to my account of what happened I have witnesses and the hospital and ambulance bills from the Dominican and from here when I returned home. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Vomiting, Shaking See Less
