Suggest Treatment For Food Poisoning
Hello, My girlfriend has had food poisoning since Wednesday. All signs pointed to food poisoning. It seemed better yesterday, but now it came back with a vengeance and she was up again all last night vomiting and dry heaving. Her symptoms now include tingling and numbness all over the body, nausea, dizziness, sore muscles and a dry mouth. She is well hydrated and has been drinking pedialyte and water. I have made chicken noodle soup for her to eat, but she is unable to finish even half a cup of soup. We are worried about the tingling and numbness. Her eyes are tracking fine and she is coherent
