    Food poisoning or something else?

    I'm not even sure it's possible I have food poisoning! All 4 of us had exactly the same leftovers for dinner, reheated until boiling and hot. When DD went to bed she complained she felt sick, but went to sleep fine, slept all night and woke up this morning not feeling a thing. I on the other hand was feeling a little off before bed but nothing major and woke up at 4am spending an hour with either my head or bottom over the toilet, I still feel unwell and haven't been game enough to eat anything.

    DH and DS are fine, so is it possible for one person to get food poisoning from a meal? Or have I picked up something else?

    I was already super paranoid about left overs!

    There is a gastro bug going around. Maybe you've picked up that.

    I'd say it's something else. When we got food poisoning we all got sick at the same time, the only one of us that didn't get it was DS, who cracked the poos that night and didn't eat his tea.

    It could be something else, or it could be that your immunity is a bit down at the moment so you're more susceptible to a bug that the others weren't impacted by.

    It could be something food related I think. I can sometimes get sick from food but my DH won't because I have a sensitive stomach to these things. That is my theory anyway!
