I drove across Africa in 2005. I came home with a disease that was viral, the school of tropical medicine could not identify it - the conclusion was "you will either get better or you will die" - I was not especially ill, but it paralysed my joints one at a time, starting in the finger joints, then the toes, then the elbows and knees, got to one hip and then it just went away... And thats before we talk about mango worms and stuff - OH MY GOD. You never got washed in mango worm areas...

@eddietat95 - NOPE -there are thousands of diseases in the danker parts of the world that have not been classified. This one will have a number in a lab somewhere and if anyone else catches it they know that most likely its not fatal. They took blood samples every day and monitored me and stuff - but just to collect data. There was no treatment.
