It’s Not Fun

September 15, 2007 on 11:15 pm | In General, Health |

Getting food poisoning is not fun. I had a terrible bout of it last night, about two hours after eating dinner out at a new Italian restaurant in town.

Having extreme cramping and pain is the understatement…I was in agony. From chills to nausea, actually throwing up and having intestinal spasms and cramps, it was an awful ordeal.

When I finally went into bed, after spending hours back and forth to the bathroom, I piled the blankets on top of me, and I still had the chills. I was freezing. I had a low grade body temperature of 96 degrees. It took me two hours to get warm. When I last looked at the clock, it was 4:55 a.m. I had about three hours sleep.

I haven’t been able to eat much today, my body is telling me not to eat anything heavy. I have been drinking a lot of water, though, so I don’t get dehydrated.

I actually enjoyed the food at the restaurant, too, but don’t think I will return there.

I am off to bed now, and it is only 10:15 p.m. I’m exhausted.
