Is It Food Poisoning?
It all began Saturday evening. Paula and I had gone out to dinner to celebrate the 31st anniversary of our first date and were watching a little television. After finishing a show, she said she felt like throwing up. She decided to get ready for bed while I channel flipped for awhile. I found out later she had thrown up almost hourly all night long. It continued all the way through most of the next day. The vomiting skipped me, but I had diarrhea the rest of the night and throughout the next day. Neither of us had a fever, but the symptoms continued. I’ve never slept so much in 24 hours ever.
As I write this, we both feel better. I still feel 10 cents short of a dollar, but that raises a more important set of questions. What is the most likely culprit? What should you do if you get these symptoms? More important, what should we do to let others know? I didn’t choose this topic—it chose me—but that’s going to be the focus of this week’s Memos.
Tomorrow night is the Insiders Conference Call. The primary topic is probiotics and then I’ll answer your questions. You can still participate by becoming an Insider today.
What are you prepared to do today?
