Stool samples are often tested for water borne bugs which cause bacterial or parasitic food poisoning, such as, giardiasis, e coli or cryptosporidium. Our Holiday Illness Lawyers would be interested to hear from sick holidaymakers who have suffered from gastric illness at the Costa Del Sol Holiday Village.
