My hubby came down with Dengue Fever 2 days after returning from Bali in July last year. He was very ill with vomiting for quite a few days before being admitted to hospital and put on a drip as he was so dehydrated. He also had headaches and muscle pain and was very lethargic, then came out in a bright red rash all over his body. All up he probably took 3 weeks to recover but the doctors told him once it's out of your system it doesn't come back ( unlike Malaria) we have been going to Bali for years ( over 20 times) so I guess we've been lucky however I will definately be extra vigilant with the OFf this year!
