Ham Sandwich Migraine & Vomiting - Kraft, Bossier City Louisiana

1050 George Dement Boulevard, Bossier City, 71111 Louisiana, United States

Had a couple of ham sandwiches for lunch around 12. After about a half hour or so, I had a serious migraine with light sensitivity and missing patches in my visual field; this is my body's typical reaction to food poisoning. About an hour after eating, I felt extremely nauseated and began projectile vomiting in short bursts over the next five hours, each wave lasting about ten to twenty minutes, starting with a few small chunks and ending with around 3 really huge volumes of ham sandwich forcing it's way out; this is the first time I've had such a severe reaction. I have also felt freezing cold the entire time as well as now, even while wrapped in a robe and under 3 blankets in a warm room. In between projectile vomiting bursts I felt nauseated, and had trouble focusing and even speaking. I also had (and still have) a distinct numbness in my hands, and I still have a hellacious headache now - 8 and a half hours later - that throbs every time I move my head and especially upon standing . The numbness and the headache are possibly side-effects from dehydration and electrolyte loss after the intense vomiting fits; it took roughly 8 hours of vomiting before I could even keep liquids down.

All ingredients used for the sandwiches were purchased just yesterday; travel time from the store to home is a matter of minutes and the food was put away as soon as we arrived home. The sandwiches were eaten right after they were made.

I cannot be 100% certain if it was the ham or the mayonnaise that got me sick.
