[@rrtds9378]

Hi Adam- we were on vacation in Cebu and all around the Philippines last month. We stayed in Solea Resort Mactan and I think the weather was much more humid and warm than last year. On the way home to the US, my daughter also got sick almost fainting when we arrived in San Francisco layover. I had to put her on a wheelchair. When she was getting really sick, I flagged the first airport police we saw. They called the airport EMT and diagnosed that she might be dehydrated. She was given a fructose sodium citrate drink. Hours later my daughter recovered. We think she didn’t drank enough water in the Philippines.

[@BobMelsimpleliving.]

That's rough. Happy to hear you made it home. We just had lunch at SM Seaside. 😖😖 Hope everyone is fine now.

[@JamesGTR]

I'm glad to hear you are all well now, not a nice experience. Although you don't want to name where you think you got ill, I think you should email the SM mall and inform them of that particular establishment so they can do some checks. Also I think health Insurance is a must especially as a foreigner. Stay safe.

[@patmoore8503]

I had migraines and acid reflux I gave up all prosessed food and I am so well now.

[@rakel1544]

We have a dedicated steamer where the water can be topped up via a receptable at it's side. We used this to sterilize outside food that can be warmed (steam for about 15 minutes).

[@johnhorton5022]

Oh my it's such a horrible experience for all of you. It's actually hard to watch, I could see the suffering Jane and Isabella went through. And you too Adam, as a husband and father it's awful when you can't do any more for our loved ones. Food poisoning is a nightmare, I have had it twice in the Philippines; once from water ( my own stupid fault ) and once from McDonalds of all things, but both times were horrendous. Good luck all of you, hope you're ok now

More likely the ice cream. It’s old and not replaced often. As a rule of thumb when we go home to Bohol, we avoid eating too much, and don’t drink that water from the faucet or use the ice. For additional health insurance coverage, consider buying an HMO plan here, there are so many kinds and options to choose from. Also, consider travelers insurance as it will cover you while you are away from home.

Use it for comprehensive exam yearly for preventative like Colonoscopy, Mammogram, Bone Density test, Get vaccines updates everything.

Hi there. My husband is Dutch and is very safe when it comes to health insurance, it’s compulsory in the Netherlands. We are living now in the Philippines the first step was getting the health insurance. We got the HMO In Life insurance (European style) try to research for it.

[@myldwinpierre3962]

Hey guys, good to see that everyone recovered. A great and effective remedy for nausea and dizziness is scratching and sniffing a lime (skin) or crumpling and sniffing lime leaves. My grandmother taught me about that and I can definitely attest to their effectiveness. I used to get really bad car sickness, I would apply either remedy and it would instantly rid me of the symptoms. Try it next time you experience nausea and dizziness.

[@racquelgaray9524]

Always take with you Erceflora when travelling, for food poisoning/upset stomach

[@kokomojoe6552]

I've been to the Philippines many times, I always bring proper meds here from the U.S.A. on advise from my Doctor. Antibiotics, and such. I have gone through stomach problems a few times with the food there. Drank only Bottled water. I hope you are all feeling better.💓💓

[@RoyMusic11111]

Medical insurance make sure the cover includes the cost of all drug tablets medication & for nurses/doctors & overnight room accomodation private in St.Lukes in Manila for series conditions.

[@Cbromz9648]

We have been exploring health insurance in the Philippines and is no easy feat. Pacific Cross, Pru Life, or AXA worth looking into for major hospitalisations and you can add HMO like benefits for general things. Many of those who can comfortably afford health insurance seem to go with 2 plans sometimes from different companies. We are choosing to go for Maxicare Gold for general coverage as is a cheaper option for us (has smaller coverage but covers alot for general everyday health) with intention of adding another individualised care plan later to fully cover major stuff if happens.

[@marianeil6630]

The younger the better, as you grow old, Philippines is very hesitant to enroll you, in tbe Health Care, better to have senior PhilHealth, check Barangay benefits and privileges, be an advocate to your Health. Keep an eye on line Philippine Dept. Of Health for updates. Get it now before you get old. Get the best. Health is Wealth.

[@AdamandJanesLifestyle]

Thank you my friend. We need to look fully into what's best but i like your thinking! We did briefly look before but always knew local doctors are good however sickness can and does happen. We need to make sure we are all covered in case of something serious but also for minor things too. Have a great day 😊

[@1967hashem]

calebbromley9648 Here in the Philippines you can't find insurance once you are 70 years old.

[@1967hashem]

@@AdamandJanesLifestyle Don't forget that here in the Philippines you cannot find insurance once you turn 70 years old. I just pray if I get sick I can make it back to Australia by plane where there is universal health care. No wonder so many people die all around me every year. The local hospitals don't even have snake venom saying ''out of stock''.

[@AdamandJanesLifestyle]

Thank you my friend but no. Jane is still really sick I'm afraid. We will get tests asap.

[@raz134]

That must have so hard to get through. So sorry you guys had to experience something that must have been traumatizing. I hope everyone has recovered. Also, might Jane's stomach and migraine issues be connected to anxiety perhaps? I went through about 3 years struggling with anxiety and they manifested as stomach issues, migraines, and nausea. I hope you guys get to the root of it and enjoy the beautiful life you've built there.

[@nelsonlomod9601]

Its wise to have health and accident insurance and its not too expensive if its family coverage.

I think I would have taken her to the hospital, she needed IV hydration....but totally understand wanting to just get home. This is the scary part of living anywhere really, healthcare when you really need it. In the US my filipina wife and I have been saved from huge healthcare bills with insurance..spending lifetimes of money on medical care....our insurance has always been worth it. Thanks for sharing, food borne illnesses have gotten me a few times, not fun!

I'm sorry that Isabella got so sick just as Jane was recovering. Hopefully both ladies are feeling better now. If travelling outside the country then travel insurance is normally a requirement and easy to arrange with many choices available.

You may dm me to discuss it with you. Keep safe and God bless your family

[@nelsonlomod9601]

Theres not much to worry about the food from reputable resto but tap water can be dangerous. Water source for tap water maybe safe but the pipes it runs through is questionable so just stay away from tap water always bring along bottled water.

Getting sick and recovoring fm it is actually a natural way of boosting our immune system.Of course if its a severe case then the illness has to be treated following the proper medical care!

[@renatolosbanos6219]

We don't have an NHS like what you have in England; the next best things is to have an insurance coverage. Doctors' fees here could cost an arm and a leg. I had that when I was charged Php100K by the surgeon alone in 2018. Good thing I had an extended health insurance civerage when I retired.

[@chesca80805]

Here are the lists of Health Insurance here in the Philippines. Maxicare, Intellicare, KAISER, Insular Life, Medi Card, Pacific Cross, AXA, Cocolife, ValuCare, EastWest Healthcare, AETNA

[@chesca80805]

Philhealth too

[@chesca80805]

Feel better soon.

[@marianeil6630]

@chesca80805 This Health Insurances are good, when you don't reach 60 years old and above, or else, better have savings and PhilHealth for discount only, also ask the Barangay and go to the on line of PhilHealth for updates, some hospitals has Charity Care, so while you are not sick, explore the Health Insurance in the Philippines, some Barangay in Manila thru PhilHealth they will give you for medications maintenance.

[@j-bow.mylife97]

I had food poisoning in Boracay last week. It’s horrible. Just a thought - you mentioned Imodium to stop one of the ‘effects’ of food poisoning. I am not sure if this is a good thing as that effect (as with being sick) is the body getting rid of the poison. Not medical, just a thought.

[@paulsnyers5721]

I hope you are all ok now.. No judgement, but seeing how you are so careful planners about everything you do I am surprised that you did not look into health insurance until now. Maybe its because as british citizen you never had to worry about that while in the UK ? Anyway, I am not concerned about that for now, but I heard a lot of people saying lots of good things about Pacific Cross, with a little extra advice, find a good contact person with them and deal with him/her directly. It will speed up the follow-up on every case. This was my 2 cents... Do your due diligence and I am sure you will make the right choice

[@erakelly]

Actually pacific cross have a very bad reputation on social media. I have been looking for health insurance for myself and British husband. We've come here to retire in Cebu, we've arrived in December last year and just looking into insurance. I have compared most (or maybe all) of the insurance company and foundd that Pacific cross has the most comprehensive. Health coverage but was worried about the social media reviews. So I went to the branch office here in Cebu and talk to an executive adviser and my worries are now set corrected. We are getting a semi - private 1.5M coverage. Fingers crossed they do perform.

I would think you and Jane are more sensible to not have something that important, especially now after this.

Did you not listen to what we said in the video my friend? We explained that we have sufficient savings put aside specifically for health. We are however looking at insurance for when we travel and Isabella is in Cebu. We wouldn't retire without sufficient savings in the first place.
