I had this happen to me back in the late 80's. We went to a seafood restaurant and I ordered the seafood pot. It included shrimp, lobster, mussels. The lobster was supposed to be steamed but I ate a few bites and noticed it wasn't cooked all the way through. Also the mussels were gritty. About a week later I started getting stomach cramps, diarreah and it lasted about 6 weeks. I lost 12 lbs and sick as a dog. It was determined later on that I had contracted Hepatitis A from eating dirty and uncooked seafood.
