Hii ,

Welcome To HCM & Thanks For Asking Your Query Here

I have gone through Your query and will try to provide information you need on it

from the medical history you provided it is very well possible that you have Food poisoning as you are having abdominal cramping with tiredness and there is fever also

Contact immediate medical help if you have
-Frequent episodes of vomiting and inability to keep liquids down
-Bloody vomit or stools
-Diarrhea for more than three days
-Extreme pain or severe abdominal cramping
-An oral temperature higher than 101.5 F (38.6 C)
-Signs or symptoms of dehydration — excessive thirst, dry mouth etc

it can easily be treated with oral antibiotics such as ofloxacin but i will not advise you to start any medicine without asking your GP

i will strongly suggest you to visit your GP as soon as possible
meanwhile Let your stomach settle. Stop eating and drinking for a few hours

I hope it help
Thanks & Get well Soon
