I threw up 3 times late Monday night (technically early Tuesday) and had the runs 4 times Tuesday. Since Tuesday, I had no episodes. Thanks goodness.
Upon my doctor's visit, he told me that whatever I ate had to been 2 days ago, and then got sick. He also said it had to come from either meat, chicken, or seafood. I pinpointed that it was a hamburger from In N Out. He ran a blood test to see if I may have bacteria. If I do, then I would need to take antibiotics.
I'm still waiting for the results. In the meantime, I still feel tired and my appetite is not so good. However, I do use the BRAT diet method (bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast). Also, I still have indigestion, but the doctor advised me to take a Pepsid every day for a week to get all the acid out.
Has anyone encountered food poisoning like this? And if so, how long does it take to be back to yourself?
