10286987 tn?1410261849 Well, that is how food poisoning works. It is hit and miss. If it is viral food poisoning it would affect more people but bacterial is hit and miss. I went to a mexican restuarant and my husband I ordered different food for lunch I didn't get sick and he was extremely sick for two nights.

Avatar f tn I had food poisoning at around 15 weeks pregnant and was almost dying! I couldnt keep anything down. The nurse told me if i couldnt keep anything down for 3 hpurs to go to ER. I had to get an IV and hydrated. They also gave me a nausea pill only needed to take one but it worked in like 15 minutes! All u have to do is stay hydrated!!
2026302 tn?1334731062 I had either food poisoning or the stomach flu when I was about 25 weeks. It didn't have any effect on the baby (though how it couldn't I was surprised since I threw up all night long even when nothing was in there) it was a horrible experience but baby was fine.
2050045 tn?1343153733 If it only lasted a couple hours and not several days it was food poisoning...most people get it without even knowing it because they automatically label it as "stomach flu" if your doctor said 2 go if it doesn't go away I wouldn't worry about it if it's finally over with...

We think it might be food poisoning, but I've also ate pretty much all the stuff he's eaten in the last 72 hours. Should we take him to the emergency room? Is it possible he's suffering from food poisoning?
Avatar f tn I had a bad case of either food poisoning/stomach virus when i was 12 weeks. It was horrible, couldnt eat or drink anythink properly for 2 weeks without throwing it back up. I lost 10-15 lbs at that time. Theres really nothing you can do but to let it pass out your system. Sip on water or gatorade to keep hydrated, but dont down it because it may come back up. Munch on very light foods like crackers, plain toast, rice, or clear soups. Good luck and it will pass!
Avatar n tn It could very well be the stomach flu Other causes could be: Food: such as you ate too much, Getting checked for lactose intolerance may be a good idea, Something that just normally upsets you e.g. Spicy foods, Eating a food that's been around for a while and went bad. Appendicitis Stress Tips to help you try and prevent this in the future: Don't overeat, Eat a good amount of fruits and vegetables, Wash hands before eating, Don't eat right before bedtime, Get lots of sleep.
Avatar n tn could have been food poisoning... just eat a very bland diet, keep it simple. Make sure you both are drinking plenty of fluids and foods should be as light and easily digestible as possible, which chicken broth is one of them. hope you feel better.

8600220 tn?1398955674 Yes it sounds like you are recovering from the viral food poisoning. If it was viral they didn't need to give you an antibiotic. Maybe they gave it to you because they didn't know if it was viral or bacterial so I would continue to finish the antibiotic until it is done or you could develop resistance. Keep hydrated and you should be well soon.
2035383 tn?1329579413 Ok so today I'm 7 weeks Yaay but....idk if i possibly have food poisoning maybe the flu or I sure am hoping this is not what Ms feels like.

Avatar f tn t know) and I am wondering if the chicken was a bit undercooked and is to blame for my symptoms. I know everyone handles food poisoning differently, but I just feel like I have an upset stomach right now without any other symptoms. Thank you in advance for any replies and please pardon the descriptive question.
219241 tn?1413537765 I have a strong stomach and I can only remembered one case of food poisoning in a Mexican restaurant in LA that kept me up part of the night. But my husband has a very week stomach and has had many episodes, the worst one was Summer 06 when he had awful stomach pains for 3 whole weeks. Doctors never found what was going on exactly. I also remember an evening one winter, the roads were frozen but I had to drive him at midnight to the ER due to food poisoning in a Chinese restaurant.
Avatar m tn Hi, From the information shared by you it is possible that you are suffering from gastritis. Other causes of your symptoms could be food poisoning, food intolerance, stomach flu etc. Try to take regular fresh well balanced meals. Ensure to snack on plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables and include natural yogurt in your diet schedule. This is merely an advice and not a substitute for clinical examination. Keep me posted. Take care and regards!

Avatar m tn I have been vomiting and my stomach hurts a lot I feel bloated.
Avatar f tn I think I might of had a slight bit of food poisoning. I posted yesterday saying my stomach hurt after I ate at a Chinese restaurant and went walking. I tried sleeping it off even tho I was in so much pain. I was able to sleep for a hour. Then woke up in pain again. Then just now, I threw up. Not once, but 3 times . I feel better. But I went to go brush my teeth and got the feeling again. I don't feel noxious anymore. Thank gosh!
