Suffering From Diarrhea And Stomach Cramps

Last night I had a lot of diarrhea and awful stomach cramps along with feeling nauseated, few hours after eating fried rice from the Chinese takeaway(which didn't taste that good, so I presumed I had food poisoning) however, I did not wake up in the night, but I have just woken up this morning for sixth form, with more stomach cramps, bubbling belly and feeling sick... Do I go or do I stay at home?

Hi. No question about going to the Doctor. You should in fact rush. The reason being - the infection of intestines can become serious anytime and a large loose motions and/ or vomiting can cause very fast dehydration, which needs IV Fluids and Antibiotics. It is better to visit the Doctor to avoid any serious outcome. Please complete the course of antibiotics.
