Have you ever suffered from food poisoning?

Yes---couldn't eat for 11 days.  Water only.  Finally got a cup of applesauce down. Thought I was going to die at one point.  Closest diagnostic match from my Merck manual was mushroom poisoning.  (This was before the internet.)

Yeah.  It was nothing I ever want to repeat.  

I prayed for death.  And kept puking my guts out.  UGH.

I ate some Italian peppers in oil that I left in the car.  How stupid was that? 

Twice from eating muscles from the same well known Italian pasta restaurant....not to bad ,bit un well for a few days each time......Once for three weeks .....seriously ill from eating a hot sausage roll  kept warm all day from a well known Bakers with a large string of shops.......

They say most people get very mild food poison at least once a week.....not washing food they prepare ,or store food in their fridge properly and keeping their fridge at the correct  temptreture ...
Washing fresh  salads is very important and salad bars in Resturants where people help themselves can be very dangerous for picking up infections and food bugs...:(

Never that I can remember.  I did drink a cup of coffee in Mexico once.  I thought the heat would kill any bacteria.  Not so, stick to canned drinks or bottled water you recognize when in Mexico. Of course it's too dangerous for Americans in Mexico right now anyway.  

Yes a few times that I can remember.  Cipro when traveling is my friend along with Imodium. 

Africa is worse than SE Asia, India is the worst. China you will die from adulterated food not food poisoning per se.  Always drink bottled water, Always inspect the seal on both water bottles and beer.  Was and peel all fruits.  The list of food precautions goes on.  Now there are times when looking at MRE's and the local alternative - food poisoning does not seem that bad

not yet

Yes, many times, if you go abroad the odds of you getting "the shites," is quite high.  If it's both ends then it's even worse, since there is only one toilet. I avoid mushrooms , but in many restaurant's they frequently chop them up with the olives, or fry everything in the same pan.

Food Poisoning vs. Death.

My money is on Death.  People that are well-balanced in life, happy-go-lucky, and haven't done one thing wrong in all the years of living on earth will become suicidal in a matter of an hour. 

That is the power food poisoning has on any living being.  

I am sorry and feel the pain of everyone who answered before me.

It is dreadful, painful, and had me rethink the thought of ever being a doctor.  However my body works on the inside is just fine with me.  I don't need to see it, feel it, taste it, hear it, or smell it.  It can stay inside me and me outside.  There are no words to explain the trauma your body and mind goes through with food poisoning.  It is torturous. 

OH, the simple answer, Yes. :) :) This post was edited by Merlin at December 6, 2018 1:09 PM MST

Yes a few times and it felt like the flu.
