General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello and welcome to Healthcamagic.
It looks like staphylococus food poisoning and it would mean taut you are not contagious. You should drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration and probiotics to recover your bowel function. This should be better within 1-2 days.
I hope I have answered your query. wish you a nice day.
