Hello,my name is dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.I understand your concern.
Symtoms of food poisoning consist in:
-abdominal cramps
-diarrhea
-vomiting
-loss of appetite
-mild fever
-weakness
-nausea
-headaches
Some advices that I can give to you are:
-drinks high in electrolytes can be helpful with this
-Avoid caffeine.Decaffeinated teas with soothing herbs like chamomile, peppermint, and dandelion may calm an upset stomach
- medications like Imodium and Pepto-Bismol can help control diarrhea and suppress nausea
-get plenty of rest.
