How Does One Recover From Food Poisoning Induced Vomiting, Period Like Cramps, Nausea And Lightheadedness?

I Got Food poisoning about 3 days ago, but recieved my period the same day i got food poisoning. My symptoms seem to have not subsided, i felt better for a little bit now am having symptoms of naustia again, Is it because i have my period at same time and need more rest ? Eating is unpleasant for me because my stomach doesnt feel good and i continously keep having diarhea. Luckily i havent been vommiting since the 1st day, but at timesi get nautious enough that i almost do. Because I've also been very crampy having all my period symptoms at same time as trying to recover from food poisoning. I've also been going to work for the past few days because i didnt want to miss alot of days. I've been really lightheaded and am hoping that it's just because i;ve had both at the same time.

Hello,
There is nothing to worry as generally food poisioning is viral in nature and takes 4-5 days to become all right.
Take plenty of water,coconut water for combating dehydration and may take some proton pump inhibitor like PANTOCID 40 mg once a day for 4-5 days.
You should be allright in next 3-4 days.
Thanks
