Food Poisoning on Majesty

I was going to say yes he or she did. But, then you wrote it in ALL CAPS. And honestly, that's without a doubt the most compelling argument I've ever seen, so you must be right.:rolleyes:

 

 

And you are not. Roll eyes

Re: can't be alcohol because the boy is 8 years old.

 

1. I don't think that it was alcohol

 

BUT

 

2. Haven't you ever seen how children, yes, as young as her son, sometimes go around and pick up leftover drink glasses and consume the contents?

 

:eek:

Sounds about right. The only time treatment is indicated is with specific infections in particular populations (i.e. immunocompromised or small toddlers with salmonella). Otherwise, as I always tell patients, don't think of the symptoms as the illness, think of them as the cure. There's something in there that's no good, and your body has two ways to "export" it, and it's likely to use both. It's unpleasant, but it is the solution!

 

 

 

The problem too is that "food poisoning" is often talked about like it's one thing. There are numerous different types that will have a variety of symptoms.

 

 

 

Having said that, for someone to have the experience the OP described in the time frame pointed out, as a physician, my biggest suspicion is that it would be from something the child ate. Is there any way of knowing that for certain now? Of course not. But it would be my best suspicion.

 

 

 

I also totally agree that posts about "food poisoning" on ships or in restaurants based on the experience of one individual is unnecessarily alarmist. "Food poisoning" is of public relevance when it's widespread. But as stated numerous times, isolated incidences happen all the time.

 

 

Thank you for your acknowledgement.

Believe what you like. It's a free country. I speak the truth. You agreed with the comment about Mayo Clinic, but I suspect you didn't even look at the link. It specifically mentions Staph Aureus food poisoning, and the time frame, which perfectly fits the description to OP gave.

 

 

Nope

[Newby58]

Salmonella SUCKS! It lasts soooo long, and there's nothing that makes you feel better....

 

 

Yep

Oh and you are more correct?

[Newby58]

For goodness sake. We are talking about Food.

[leisuretraveler223]

I've backed up my statements with facts and references. You simply state things like "you're incorrect", or "I don't believe you" or "it's not food poisoning" with no substance behind it.

IMHO this thread as arrived at that point where there is no longer a useful exchange of information taking place. My humble advice is to move along. Nothing to see here.

You don't think the same can be said for 75% of the threads here? :p:D:p

 

If you feel strongly about it, you can use the red alert triangle in the top corner of the first post; this will alert the mods to your concern.

Are you going to quit soon? Because now you're down to one-word answers and multiple replies to the same post.

 

 

Yep

Please post your medical background and not just that you stayed in a Holiday Inn last night.

Indeed. 75% or more. [emoji3]

 

No. Don't feel strongly about it. I'll just grab some popcorn and go back to enjoying the flow.
