I have been sick...really sick (a little graphic).
Friday morning I had cereal with milk. I thought the milk tasted funny, not bad, maybe a bit weird. However, sometimes foods just taste different to me for no reason. I checked the container. It was Lactaid milk, dated June 11. Ok, I figured I was fine and I ate my cereal. Later, after I got sick, DH went to sniff the milk and he said that by then there was something definitely wrong with it. Ladies, trust yourself and let some food go to waste if you even think there is something wrong.
It did not start until about 8 hours after I had the milk and I got so sick that we are not even sure it could be just the milk. It begain very suddenly. I could not stop vomiting for 14 hours. I had diarrhea and at times it was mostly blood. The cramping was so painful. I went to the ER and I was there for several hours receiving fluids, anti-vomiting meds and anti cramping meds. I came home last night with prescriptions. My first attempts to eat last night did not go well, as the cramping and nausea started again, even though I was on meds. I did not throw up again but I felt like I was close. I have not eaten yet today but I am about to.
Once again, I feel like I cannot catch a break. I always have some minor thing whether it is a cold, an ingrown toenail, excema or neck problems. I know, I am lucky it is never a major thing but there is always some nuisance. I had a pleasant weekend planned and I did not get to experience it at all. If I felt a little better, I might have gotten some entertainment in the ER. DH, apparently, saw and heard some interesting things.
So far, no one else in the house has gotten sick. I don't even know if I would be capable of caring for someone who got this.

Awww, I'm sorry I had food poisoning once and it was HORRIBLE!
We have a few cases like this in my office, bring the milk to the ER so they can test it!

Re: I have been sick...really sick (a little graphic).
Thanks everyone. I feel lightheaded now. I think it is a combo of dehydration and the meds. they gave me. I feel that I still need the anti-nausea and the anti-cramping drugs that they gave me. I feel some slight cramps. This sucks.
