Also, do NOT take Pepto or similar even though your stomach is killing you.

My friend Jeff had food poisoning once a couple years ago and took some, and he didn't understand why it was lasting so long when it'd been gone in a day or two when he'd had food poisoning before. His wife the microbiologist found out that he'd taken Pepto and gave him a lecture explained to him that when you have food poisoning, it's quite different than usual stomach issues and those medicines actually prolong the germ's life in your intestines.
