Shrimp Ramen Causes Illness - La Paz, La Paz La Paz Department

La Paz, La Paz Department, Bolivia

Nissin Top Ramen Shrimp Flavour packets. I ate one packet of instant noodles and started vomiting about 30 minutes later. Diarrhoea and vomiting continued for some 8 hours, after which I was able to keep water down long enough to take an Imodium tablet. My partner had half a packet of the same noodles about 24 hours after me (as we hadn't attributed the food poisoning to the packet noodles at this point) and had similar symptoms, minus the vomiting. He took Imodium sooner than I had but suffered from extreme bloating causing foul smelling burps and passing of gas for 24 hours after consumption. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Gas, Bloating, Burping
