I ordered a chimichanga from Uber eats on Saturday, November 23rd. The meal arrived within 20 mins of ordering. I ate the food and towards the end of my meal I bit into something hard and pulled it out of my mouth and noticed that it was a fingernail. Upset, I threw the food away and went about my evening. About two hours later, I started feeling ill. My stomach hurt. I ended up throwing up and had diarrhea nonstop for 30 hours straight. The following day I felt Very lethargic, but went to an emergency clinic. They diagnosed me with food poisoning and said that the best thing I could do was take Zofran (RX anti nausea medicine) and wait for it to pass, but to drink a lot of fluids. The issue with drinking the fluids was that every time I’d drink water, my body would reject it. By about Monday evening I started feeling normal. Then mistakenly, I started eating normal foods again and the illness came back. I went into St David’s Er in Pflugerville on Thanksgiving evening. They ran some blood tests and did a CT scan on my stomach and told me that I have a parasite in my colon from eating something bad. I explained to them that this was the second time I had been seen. The first time was at a small emergency medical center. They told me that the bacteria can take up to two weeks to completely leave my system so it’s best to stick to liquid such as soup and water until the end of the two week period. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain
