According to your description, it seems you have food poisoning most probably. Dizziness and headache are due to dehydration caused by vomiting.
Drink Oral rehydration solution (ORS - WHO approved) prepared by dissolving ORS powder in 1 liter of drinking water. Tablet Domperidone drug 12 hourly and take light diet for 1 to 2 days.
Do routine blood tests. If leukocyte counting are higher start Ofloxacin tablets 12 hourly for 5 days. You have to consult physician to get the medication prescribed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Hiren Hirpara
