1) what did you eat before you got sick? think both in the short term (2 hours before) and longer (12 hours before)?

2) diarrhea: bloody or non-bloody? this actually helps in pinning down what it might be :dead:

3) how much is "a looooot" of beer? you might have your answer right there, heh

Could be a hangover or food poisoning.

I had a bad case of Salmonella a few years ago and spent the better part of 24 hours vomiting. Although after a while the only thing left was the water I was trying to keep down.

non bloody and very watery-i ate a host of things within 24 hours of it starting. everything from a chiken biscuit from a gas station to subway to ribs right off the grill. as far as amount of beer i drank..i would say i consumed 30-35 beers from 5 friday to 7pm sunday. i never got drunk off them or was hung over it was just one of those weekends where i had a beer in my hand almost all the time.

My fiancee had the same thing a week ago. Here stomach was tight the night before then all the next day she was on the couch in pain.

The next day it was gone.

Guy at work got food poisoning, that usually come on quick after you eat it.
As far as I knew, that was the best way to tell you had food poisoning.

Sounds like food poisoning. The diarreah, the "doublebarrelling" are the hallmarks.

I got the bacteria that causes dysentary by some costco 5 layer party dip. I lost 10 pounds in 4 days.

Get thee to a doctor, strong antibiotics are in order.

chicken - could be salmonella
if you ate any fried rice - could be bacillus cereus
if you had any custard or potato salad - could be preformed exotoxin from staph aureus
if the air conditioning was contaminated - you might have legionnaire's
if the pork was infected and undercooked - you might have taenia solium
if you passed out without noticing - you might have the anal SARS

I've had that twice in recent years. What hell that is. :dead: Both times it lasted like a day and a half. Seems to me like it's just a stomach bug, but I ain't no doctor type like Toshi. :D

I didn't eat anything different before getting sick. It just hit me in an instant. Kind of weird how quickly that comes on.

Ben, I had almost this exact thing from last Sunday - Tuesday. Are you exhausted and sore/achey as well? I got it, and then my neighbor, my mother-in-law, my wife.... Pretty much the same exact symptoms, but it was gone (for all of us) in 48-72 hours. Good luck man, I hope it's over soon for you!

You'd know if it was food poisoning. 6-8 hours after you ate the sh|t you start feeling full again and then WHAM!
About 8 hours of expelling from both holes. Waaaaay worse than a hangover.
I've had it about 9 times. That's why I'm a nut job. When you wish you were dead that often, it fks withyour head.
Good luck and stay off the damn cruise ships.
Activated charcoal capsules are your friend. On Thor's Hammer, the Biking Viking came down with some weird stomach flu and justsomeguy was having some sort of sympathy flu or some damn thing. BV was puking his guts out and jsg wanted to. The charcoal cleared it up pretty quick. I figure if it's good enough for the OD patients in the ER, it's good enough for me.
I don't leave home without it.

well the update is as follows. didnt go to the doctor. as of day before yesterday i have been keeping food down. havent had any problem keeping liquids down and i have been keeping tons of them. water, gatoraid and pedialyte. Last night i had a bathroom free night. I lost about 9 pounds through the ordeal but i am already working on getting it back. Still have just a slight, ever so slight nauseated feeling. other than that i am ready to rock and roll. my energy level is coming back since i am able to stay hydrated and eat again also.

It could be rotovirus as well.

I've had that twice in 6 months and spent the better part of 8-10 hours each time alternating between vomiting and the squirts and trying to sit on the toilet with out falling off I was so dizzy.

It was at least 5 days after each ordeal before I was close to normal, felt weak and achy as well.
