@KDOGG331 I hope you're feeling better! I had salmonella poisoning once from restaurant chicken and I was sick for 3 days. It was really, really scary to feel that lousy. And it is definitely possible for three people to eat at the same place and only two get sick. I was the only one out of four who got sick from the chicken but they were individual pieces so perhaps mine was the only one that was mishandled.

Thank you!! It was definitely scary!! I’ve never been that ill before ever I don’t think and I thought it would never stop haha and huh, interesting. Never would have guessed that was possible. And we think it was the smoked salmon from this BBQ place because it was really good and my dad and I both ate a ton of it. I didn’t even order it but my parents did (and some other stuff) but my mom also had a bunch of chicken and my food was iffy so she gave me her salmon and it was so good I ate it all. And my own food lol she only had a few bites of it and she did later (today not last night) feel a bit nauseous but nowhere near like we were and not the other um problem lol I believe that’s because she only had a few bites of it. But it’s the only thing we all ate. Besides Mac & cheese but my mom has a lot of that at my dad and I had some roasted sweet potato slices but I think it’s kind of hard to mess up sweet potatoes and my mom didn’t have those ha everything else was good though and we’d probably go back. Idk. Feeing a bit better now but still sore/achey and burning up. Starting towards migraine from sitting around. Might take a nap. Or a cold shower. Lol my dad has been in between bed and the bathroom since we got home. I’ve been trying to do animal chores and and watch TV to distract myself lol but sitting around is kinda making me feel worse. As it usually does even when I’m not sick. Might shower. Idk. Or go off but still kinda iffy for that.

Sounds like febrile illness type of west nile transmitted by mosquitos

Wow that is scary! I never would have considered that! Thanks!! Do I do anything for it? And would two people get it at the same time? I’m leaning back to food poisoning again somewhat because it started hours after we ate out and there was one item that we all ate and all are sick.

Dr. Kiki here...you have food posioning.
Drink...and drink more. The sooner you get hydrated the sooner you will feel better.

Thank you! I’m definitely trying to drink a lot of water but I’ve definitely drank nowhere near enough. Working on drinking more ha only drank like 3 bottles all day.

My mom recently got salmonella posioning.
She was dying for almost a week. She got iv fluids and immediately felt better.
The dehydration makes you feel worse. Drink more.

@KDOGG331 Also try some electrolytes...Pedialyte or even Gatorade. You've lost potassium, magnesium and calcium too.

Thanks, been working on that too. Been drinking some of this off and on and it seems to have helped some. Just drank some more and trying to eat some more saltines/salt cause I read too much water can be a problem too and unbalance the salt and cause the same symptoms haha

Anyway, I figure it’s a little healthier than Gatorade but probably not LOL idk

But we don’t have anything else. And I even bought some Fiji water cause that’s supposed to have natural electrolytes and minerals.

So nice finally sleeping in my own bed after 3 nights. I mean, I had a great time, and the hotel beds were all pretty good, but my bed feels like a literal cloud right now.

Feeling a lot better this morning as in.... completely fine so I really believe it was just food poisoning now. Still pretty dehydrated though so I’m still working on catching up there. Feel fine though. And nowhere dehydrated as I was, just not quite the perfect color urine yet and slightly dry lips/mouth so gotta work on that ha been drinking a lot of water already this morning so I’ll get there. Anyway, thanks for all the help yesterday! And sorry for freaking out.
