Yesterday, I got a Vito sandwich from Jimmy Johns. Within an hour after eating it, I started to feel nauseous and began throwing up. The vomiting lasted about 3 hours. I also developed a fever and chills, which have continually improved, though I still have some symptoms 24 hours later  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Fever, Cramps, Chills, Headache
