I’m curious, when you went to seek medical advice, what was the diagnosis?
My wife made me breakfast (with eggs) about two years ago on Father’s Day. Within an hour or two, I knew something was wrong, but we were already on our way to a party. I left soon after getting there to go home. I went straight to bed until the next morning (went to ER), and only got up to go to the bathroom and drink Gatorade. At the ER, they gave me a one-time dose for the food poisoning and an IV for fluids. I was advised to drink plenty of fluids with electrolytes (Gatorade or Powerade) I came back home after the ER, and went back to bed. I didn’t eat anything for about 48 hours. That was the worst I have ever felt. I would not wish food poisoning on anyone.
I have to admit, I started to laugh when I saw the length of your first post, after reading the thread title. There is no way I would have had the energy to sit down for that long and write a post like that when I had food poisoning. I hope you feel better soon.
