Suggest Treatment For Food Poisoning, Nausea And Abdominal Bloating
Question: Hi, I was in Barcelona recently on vacation and got food poisoning. About 3 days ago, I ate some seafood Paella at a restaurant in Barcelona and soon after I felt some nausea and bloating. I went back to the hotel and had to vomit a few hours later. I felt better the next morning, although my stomach was still a little sensitive, but I thought the worst was over. Unfortunately, 3 days later, it seems that I still haven't gotten rid of it. I still cannot tolerate much more than a small snack and a full sized meal (though not huge) will cause a lot of pain, bloating, nausea, and upset stomach. I also woke up this morning with a crampy stomach that lasted about an hour before it went away by itself. There are no additional symptoms and I am able to go about my day normally until another episode is triggered by food. There may be a bit of weakness and fatigue but not too noticeable most of the time.
Thanks in advance, and I appreciate any advice you may have.
