Travelers
Diareha
While
it is not the most pleasurable subject it does happen.
If you spend an extended period of time in Guatemala
you will get stomach sick at some point. When it happens
the best and fastest remedy is take a stool sample
to the local laboratory and have it analysed. Then
take the results to a doctor who can read them and
perscribe the best medication. The whole procedure
will cost around Q100.00 to Q300.00 with medicine
included.
