Well, I am in the hospital for food poisoning.

[imanamerican63]

I posted over the weekend that I was not feeling well and was still had severe diarrhea. I final delivered my load and got back where I work in South Dakota and went to the local clinic. After being checked out by the clinic’s doctor, they put me an ambulance and brought me to Sanford Hospital in Sioux Falls. This has one of best hospitals in the region. I am very impressed with the nurses and doctor staff. They have manners and know what they do well. I am getting better and pretty sure that I will be released tomorrow. Now, I have to wait for the bill! Yuck! Oh well, I’ll feel better!

9. Eek! So glad you are doing better.

Was it a recent purchase? Or been on the shelf a while?

12. I had the n my truck for about a week, but in dry area.

I had thought I cooked it throughly and for a at least 30 minutes. I guess it was one of those times?

[MLAA]

14. Sometimes sh#t happens! So glad it is almost behind you 😊😬

Were you running a fever also?

[imanamerican63]

17. No , a little kidneys and colon infection.

22. Humidity doesn't penetrate cans. Heat does. Humidity is immaterial to canned food except rust issues

15. I would think

it's pretty hard to get food poisoning from canned anything, that is, except for botulism. In which case you would have been gone in 24-48 hours......

Maybe some one more learned than I am can weigh in on this.

My best friend is a bio-chem warfare expert and tells me that of all the Biological/Chemical warfare agents out there, mustard gas, nerve gas, Ypestis, bacteria, viruses etc that Botulism is the NUMBER ONE, meshy-ethyl bad shit by far.

25. Yes, always look for cans

that have swollen a bit and don't eat.

[2naSalit]

7. Ouch!

Never ended up in hospital though probably should have gone, but food poisoning sucks.

Glad you got help and are feeling better!

[flying rabbit]

10. Glad you are better, but

never finish a sentence with "severe diarrhea", and start the next with " I finally delivered my load"

[imanamerican63]

13. Well, life has it's quirks

[blueinredohio]

24. That was funny. I had a chuckle when I read it.

[malaise]

11. Now is not a good time to be in any hospital

GO home and get well

[cwydro]

16. Gotta agree with that.

Eek.

[PoliticAverse]

18. Best wishes to you! n/t

[FailureToCommunicate]

19. Glad you are on the mend! Was the "load" you delivered palettes of toilet paper perchance?

[imanamerican63]

21. No!

I would have used it up before I made the delivery?

[mrs_p]

20. Oh no! I'm glad you are being well

Looked after (I’m directly north).

Hope you recover quickly!

[Patterson]

23. Canned chili? Did it smell or taste off?

[gademocrat7]

26. Glad you are on the mend.

Take care.
