Profiles

  1. High Likelihood of Food Poisoning -

    As our stomach flu or food poisoning quiz shows, your sudden vomiting and sharp cramps point to food poisoning. Stay hydrated, rest, revisit food prep practices, and contact a healthcare provider if symptoms persist beyond 24 hours.

  2. Probable Stomach Flu -

    Your responses to our stomach bug or food poisoning quiz suggest a viral stomach flu with gradual diarrhea and mild nausea. Sip clear fluids, rest, and try probiotics to support your recovery.

  3. Mild Gastrointestinal Upset -

    Your symptoms are light and could stem from either food poisoning or a mild bug, as seen in the food poisoning or stomach bug quiz. Stick to bland foods, stay hydrated, and monitor any changes - most cases clear up in 24 - 48 hours.

  4. Mixed Signals -

    Your results in the "do I have food poisoning quiz" show a blend of symptoms, making it hard to pinpoint food poisoning or a stomach bug. If things don't improve, consider medical advice or a stool test to identify the culprit.

  5. Seek Medical Attention -

    If you're experiencing severe dehydration, high fever, or blood in stool, your stomach bug or food poisoning quiz flags an urgent situation. Don't wait - contact a healthcare provider or visit the ER immediately for proper treatment.
