Gravad Lax Illness Strikes - IKEA St. Louis, St. Louis Missouri

The family and I went to the Midsummer Smorgasbord at IKEA and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. After a few hours had passed, I started feeling woozy and very nauseous. I tried to sleep, but every 30 mins was in the bathroom with massive gas (burping & flatulence), feeling like I needed to do more, but unable to do so. It got so bad at one point I tried to induce vomiting, but no dice. After another round of trying to sleep, I knew something had changed. I raced into the bathroom, with chills and shakes, and barely managed to grab a bucket as I sat on the toilet. Not to be gross, but it was awful having it come out both ends at the same time. An hour later, same thing. At this point I was so dizzy from loss of water, etc, but I couldn't keep anything down. It's now 8 hours later and I'm just now able to keep crackers and water on my stomach...I hope. My family all ate the same stuff, except I ate quite a bit of their gravad lax which is their raw, cured salmon. Apparently, it wasn't cured enough, because I've never been this sick in my life. Not sure I'll ever eat at IKEA again. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Flatulence, Gas, Dizziness, Chills, Shaking, Burping
