Food poisoning. Slight temp. I just called the doctor.
I have never had this happen before. I hope it clears in 24 hours, because Mr. Writer and I have a hot belated Valentine's dinner date tomorrow night that we've been looking forward to for some time. I'm sitting up and am overall feeling fine, but when I walk around I feel drained and just a touch nauseous.

1. Did you eat Peter Pan Peanut butter?
All joking aside, they have a recall on it right now:

Hope you feel better soon!

3. No it was bad guacamole from a local restaurant.
Thanks! I'm sure with some bed rest, and whatever the nurse from my doctor's office tells me, I will be better soon.

sorry you're going through that... it's the worst illness I have ever experienced. Well besides the flu that one year... anyway...

4. I think it could be worse...
I vomited this morning, but beyond it's just a slight temp and sleepiness.

Thanks! :hi:

5. I got food poisoning (from mayo) so bad one night that I had to
be hospitalized. I was fine the next evening, just a bit shaky, although I admit I don't remember if they did anything more for me than sedate and hydrate me. I hope you recover quickly.

7. That sounds terrible. :(
I'm relatively okay. It was a very small bowl of guacamole. I am eating pudding and drinking organic ginger ale. I should be right as rain tomorrow.

Sucked beyond belief. Spent 2 days dealing with it. Hope you get better faster. :hug:

14. I have had it too many times. Dehydration is what usually gets you. Drink Gatorade.
Replacing electrolytes is key.

15. Everyone has a temperature at all times.
The term is "I have a slight fever."

When you are dead, your temperature has a name. It's called "ambient".

Get Well!!
