Suffering From Food Poisoning.

Okay so I think I might have food poisoning. I drank heavily last night, not going to lie. Was hungover but my stomach was okay at this point. Then I went to get a takeaway this afternoon and for about ten hours (two hours after I got the takeaway) I have just been almost unbearably sick. I have cramps, diahrrea, headaches and it really does not help when I eat anything (I've tried toast to settle my stomach and warm water) and only makes the situation worse. I'm feeling quite thirsty as of an hour or so but everything I drink is lost within about ten minutes XD Alcohol or takeaway? More importantly how do I get it to stop :(

This is mainly due to food infection, I wont call it as poisoning. A course of antibiotics will help you.
