Poisoned and left to die

On the 7th of August I purchased sparkling water from checkers northmead square.I could smell chlorine on my hands but thought it was something I touched in the office , only to be surprised it was my bottled water.. I went to wash it thinking it was just the bottle, then drank but I could still smell the chlorine .I just thought because the smell is still on my hands.but to my surprise the when I took another sip , it smelled of chlorine immediately I felt sick.i made my colleagues smell an true they had me experience. I took back bottle later after work , got my refund and that I will be contacted with feedback after sending it back to coke to be tested. I gave them a week , went back to checkers and luckily the coke rep.was there ,he took my numbers , he seemed very confused or was trying to not to help .I explained and also let him know my stomach has never been okay and at that time had no cash to go to Dr .still waiting feedback and now told I need to call Consumer line or I won't get help.Its been two weeks and not sure what I drank and how its affected my stomach

Oh just so the world knows its been a month checkers northmead and Coca-Cola have not given me any solid feedback of what I drank that day. I have since received 1 call to say the lab is busy but after what happened in the store the same I returned the bottl looking as ill as I did and not getting any sort of help I guess nothing will be done
