SteelofUtah -> RE: When good food goes bad (10/14/2008 7:57:09 AM)

Because of an odd condition that the doctor says affects more people than will admit to it, I have a body designed for regurgitation (look it up), In my younger years my mother thought I was sick all the time because I was throwing up all the time. When in reality if my stomach hurt because I ate too much I would would hold my breath and cough and then up it would come.
I mention this becaue I want you all to understand to the degree that I was sick, and why I am still alive.
Many people say they have had food poisioning when they haven't they just had a reaction to food. When you have had Food Poisioning you have been POISIONED and it requires Stomach Pumping, Cherry Flavored Charcoal Syrup, and a Bitch for a Nurse who keeps asking you stupid questions like "Sir, Don't you check your food before eating it?" Turns out Campylobacter which is what caused most food poisioning issues (Not E.Coli as most people think) is also a Bacteria that affects 1 in 200,00 people In such a Violent reaction that Death is caused in half the cases. Most Cases start at the end of digestion when the Bacteria hits the Upper Intestine Mine started almost immediately and so I started Roarking into the Big White Cereal Bowl and after 45 minutes NON STOP untill I started Dry Heaving and Causeing a Nose Bleed I said "Hey Guys, I think I need to go to the Hospi.........." I stopped talking there because I started having a seziure.
So off I was Rushed to UMC to be Intabated and then once they could remove that torture device they said okay we are going to give you Charcoal and Pump your Stomach. If you are told these words ask if there is another option because trust me this one sucks. The Evil Nurse Ratchet says "It's Cherry Flavored" BULLSHIT!! It is Used Cherry Anal Lube and Gravel Flavored. And then I am told "You need to keep it down for at least ......." They stopped talking because I covered The Evil Nurse Ratchet with a River of every last drop of what they made me swallow. I would have smiled or laughed had I not had the Stomach Alien from Alien trying to get out of my Gut. I doubled over and fell off the Hospital Bed. Evil Nurse Ratchet wouldn't touch me and so two orderly had to help me back into it.
Over the course of the next 8 hours I was given 6 Cherry Flavored Charcoal Drinks because I couldn't keep the first 5 down long enough to expel the entire contents of my stomach to thier satisfaction although all I could see each and every time I Roarked for then was the same stuff they put in my apparently the LAST one was the color and Consistency they were looking for.
So WHAT you may ask caused such an Poisioning? Chicken. Hillshire Farms CHICKEN. Not the kind of food you just stop eating because you get sick from it however from that day on I cooked it differently and Pink in the chicken no matter how little does not get eaten. I also no longer eat Bone IN chicken because it is at the bone that this particular bacteria likes to hang out and wait for people to injest it.
In the end the doctor informed me that my Blood Test Confirmed that I am a 1 in 200,000 and that if I had not been able to expel the bulk of the food so quickly after injesting it and with how violently ill I was and how long it took me to get up the Charcoal that they wanted I would have died.
Now all that and I'm still wanting to try Fugu.
Go Figure.
