Suspected food poisoning. Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Stomach Pain, Cramps
Suspected source: Cereal Cheerios
Onset: Right away
Duration: 4 to 12 hours
Sick: Me
Additional information: I had Cheerios in the morning with almond milk and felt immediate nausea after eating them and within a couple of hours... See More I had the worst stomach pain, followed by diarrhea. The stomach pain continued till I went to bed. I don’t eat cheerios often, but my sister does and she had previously said she always needed to go to the bathroom after she ate them. We suspected it was lactose intolerance but later realized her milk is actually lactose free. I had mine with almond milk, so the common denominator here is the cheerios.
Bought it from this grocery store. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Stomach Pain, Cramps See Less

I think that I have food poisoning. I purchased a watermelon last night from Krogers at 5995 Stage Rd Memphis, TN. I believe it was contaminated. I noticed when I first cut into it that the rind in the spot I was cutting was soft. I cut... See More a piece and ate it, it was exceptionally sweet. So I ate a large slice of it. Within minutes I vomited it up and had a severe case of diarrhea. I thought maybe, I had eaten too much at one time. I ate another slice today around 2pm, and the same thing happened. I've concluded that it is the watermelon that's causing me the sudden onsets of diarrhea. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Other, Vomiting See Less
