Do i have food poisoning?!


Question: Do i have food poisoning!?
I ate Macdonald's yesterday, a double cheeseburger to be precise for dinner!. About 11 hours or so after it (about 3am) i woke up feeling nauseous!. I threw up and didn't sleep till about 10am for an hour!. I had diarrhea, really bad stomach cramps and i didnt eat for about 48 hours!. In the night after i had a high temperature (about 39 degrees celcius)!. I was really dehydrated but i everytime i drank water i would throw it back up!.
Today it has become slightly better, but i still haven't ate and the smell of food makes me gag!.
Is it food poisoning do you think!?
or something else!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Sounds like either food related or a bug!.!.

best management is stick initially with the cooled boiled water stay away from fizzy drinks !.!. wait at least 1 hr after you vomit then take a sip at a time!.!. The quicker you take it in the quicker it will come out!.!.!. Once you have kept water down then start with just bland foods like dry toast ,, plain rice or pasta!. then slowly re introduce other things!.!. nothing greasy or spicy!.

Regular paracetamol will get the fever down and not upset the tummy!.

Rest for a wee while stay away from the general public at work/school etc for at least 48 hrs after you last had D or V!.

You will feel kind of washed out for a few days so don't worry!.

If you start to vomit again then go back to fasting 1 hr that slow introduction of fluids again!.

Don't take anything to stop the symptoms cause if it is a bug it will just wait in the gut till the medication wears off then come back with a vengeance!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It could be a stomach flu!. My husband had food poisoning and it was much worse than you're describing!.!.!.but there are different kinds of food poisoning!. You can get meds from the doctor to treat the nausea, but they'll make you sleepy!.

One thing that will help with keeping fluids down is to take a very small amount (use a spoon) every few minutes!. It would be better to use a rehydration solution than to drink plain water!. You can buy some, or make your own!.!.!.google world health organization oral rehydration solution recipe if you want to know how to make it yourself (but it has no taste, just to warn you)!. Taking a small amount at a time will help your stomach become accustomed again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
