'Any later could have been more serious'
What was described as a"serious infection" left Laura unable to keep food down and she vomited three times before reaching hospital.Laura fell into the hole during the early hours on Sunday , when it looked"just like a puddle", before swallowing sewage.
While in hospital she described receiving blood clotting injections and a regular drip, as well as suffering from a sore throat. She will have to visit her GP soon for tests and a check-up to make sure the infection does not return.The hospital suspects the infection was Leptospirosis, Jason said, a disease spread through animals' urine that can cause various symptoms including being sick.He was apparently told by hospital staff that this was the first such case they had ever seen.
The couple said they wanted to share their experience as they initially had no idea how dangerous what happened had been.They described it as two “near-death experiences” and an eye-opener about the risks of Leptospirosis.Thames Water said its teams “are working as quickly and safely as possible” but it could not yet give a completion date for the “complex repair”.
