Insurance companies usually respond quickly, so don't delay contacting them if you're feeling unwell.
Key rule: if your condition doesn't improve within a few hours, use your travel insurance right away instead of waiting it out.
One traveler noted that sanitation standards in Egypt are noticeably worse than even in Thailand — stomach issues and food poisoning happen fairly often, especially for less experienced travelers.
