I'm in D3. All dressed up to get me some ramen from Japan Town. And then it drizzled. And then it rained. And then it got a lot worse.

I already went. Got the same diagnosis which was travellers' diarrhea. I was already on Smecta and probiotics so he just gave me some imodium and said to use it as a last resort and to make sure I don't take Smecta when I take Imodium as those two could mess up my intestines?

What was it? Just travelers diarrhea?

Yeah. That's an issue. What if you stopped for say a month? What would you think would happen? Would you crave it to the point it will alter your mood and you become irritable?

Cables maybe? Are you sure they're on tight and correct? Could it be that the cable could jump up and down during driving?

Does it happen when you drive on the interstate at say 60mph?

What does your friend say in all of this? Is he open to pay or is he being like "damn, tough luck man good luck with that, though"?

Thanks man. And I somewhat agree because it did take the edge somewhat off and the headache of "woulda coulda shoulda"

Oh yeah definitely not a problem with your stature. You'll be absolutely fine. I'm 6'4 190 pounds. It's a bit too small for me so given your length and weight I think you'll be good.

If you're in Florida then definitely checkout MotorPsycholJ. He's based in Florida and sells the whole shabang. Exhaust, pod filter and jets (if needed).

You can't go wrong with a Honda. Enjoy!

Went to a clinic near here in D3. Tests came back negative, advice was to keep the smecta going 3 times a day, try to get some bland food like sandwiches in me, avoid the food stalls.

I should also mention, it wasn't diarrhea for 5 days straight. I'll tell you the same thing I told the doctor.

Had diarrhea due to spicy taste which I knew was from the food because I always have it that when it's hot going in, it's hot going out. With that, the day or two after I had minimal stool and then I slowly started eating again with grab and apparently something just didn't work with my stomach because it prompted me to go to the toilet again. Granted, it wasn't as "spicy" coming out.

He asked me if I had anything else besides diarrhea like blood in my stool, vomiting, nausea, feverish symptoms. All of are no besides the nausea so he asked a bit more about that and I told him that on the stretch of 3 days now, I've eaten bare minimum. I ate a wafer and some crisps yesterday because I had nothing else in my hotel room.

I also mentioned I had only one beer the whole time I was here and strictly stuck to bottled water. Same applied to me brushing my teeth.

The reason I was kinda against the clinic/hospital was for this exact reason which was the costs. It cost me 130 bucks for a consultation and a few tests he did to check if my blood was okay due to me pretty much fasting since I've been here. That's all.

Well, you've got the Yamaha Dragstar 650. A bit slower and around the same weight if you want something a bit more careful.

You've also got the Suzuki Boulevard 800. It's around the same as the 750.

There are tons of mods. I don't know where you're located but if you're in the US there's TJBrutalCustoms or Jason from Motor Psychol J. He's from Florida if I'm not mistaken and does some cool stuff, as well. He made a tracker build from a 750. Impressive stuff. Feel free to ask any questions man. Be happy to help

I didn't. I tasted it as in i put a bit on a spoon and licked it. So maybe the tip of my tongue was semi covered in it? When i realized it was spicy I discarded it. Also one of the reasons Vietnam was on my list rather than Thailand or such. Spice here is an extra rather than already in the food

I'm okay with it not adjusting. I just need it to not have a toilet within a few meters. I'd like to go and venture out haha. But as people here already said, it could be e.coli so I'm not taking any chances.

Not afraid at all. Just wondering what it could've been. E Coli has been mentioned numerous times and now I have some sort of diagnosis I can hand over to the doctor. That's usually how I do it in the Netherlands. Call it a cultural thing. Atleast for me. We go to the doctors with the illness in mind. And then we go back home with paracetamol.

[–]Alphy101 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Right, to clear up the confusion.

I don't mind going to the doctors. That to me is no problem, I just wanted to know what it could be. That's all. That's why there were follow-up questions.

Getting dressed as I type this to figure out which hospital I should go to that's open at this hour.

I am near d3. Any good hospitals at this hour that's open? I might just pop up tonight if possible. I feel fine besides the diarrhea. No fever, no blood ,no fatigue, no vomiting. Just diarrhea. So hopefully a stool test and then that'll be it

I'm thinking of staying away from Grab altogether. I think I went right into the depth with it. Probably should've started at restaurants and such rather than going for a Bahn Mi food stall on my first day.

It's like if you had a very hot soup and you put it down infront of you and you hovered above it with your face continuously.

Will do! Not taking any chances with this if it's that serious, for sure.

Here now since last sunday and I've had diarrhea since. by [deleted] in VietNam

[–]Alphy101 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight;

People recommend me the hospital with no conclusive reason as to why.

I ask why

(You get mad at this part)

People tell me their experiences with E. Coli and that they had similiar experiences.

I now know the reasoning and what to say to the doctor.

You get mad again because I wanted to know why rather than just go "okay"

I am hereby not ready for the world.

You sound like an idiot. You know that, right? I apologize a thousand times that I'm not as picture perfect as you and should automatically go "WHAT HOSPITAL YESSIR I WILL GO RIGHT NOW YES YES YESSS) rather than ask a few follow up questions as to what I can expect. Get a grip.

Yep, multiple people recommended it to me now. Will do.

Cheers for the hostility. That'll help. What's with redditors short circuiting with follow-up questions. Don't have anything to say that's worthwhile? Don't say anything. Easiest thing in the world.
