is take things like Immodium. Back 18 years ago when I first started going to Bali - you were always told to take something like Immodium - all that did was make things worse and bind you up. Unfortunately the illness has to run its course and if you are ill enough - go to a Doctor. My husband and son got extremely sick in Phuket - we all ate at the same restaurant for lunch but it was one of those cases of who knows exactly what happened, they got sick and I didnt - but my son especially had severe diarrhoea and vomiting for 2 days - very scary stuff. Luckily in Bali we have only ever had mild cases of travellers diarrhoea. I also got sick in Thailand - and it put me out of action for a couple of days. I do think something like inner health tablets is a good idea.
