Food poisoning still feel rough!?

Me and my partner both had food poisoning on Monday. I still can’t seem to shift the rough feeling? I have no appetite still which I guess is making me feel more rough? And stomach cramps coming and going in waves!
anybody else had food poisoning and still felt rough and no appetite 5 or so days later!?

think I may take some gut probiotics to try and make my gut heal!

I had food poisoning twice last year and it took me well over a week before I felt capable of eating normally.

Keep up with the fluids and stick to small amounts of bland things like toast or crackers.

Yup I suffered the effects of food poisoning for nearly two weeks earlier this year, the stomach cramps cleared up after about 5 days but the other delightful effects still carried on. Turns out it was campylobacter and I had to have a course of antibiotics to help clear it. I'd definitely recommend contacting your GP. I rang 111 and they made me an appointment with my GP for the next available day.

Yes, there are different kinds of food poisoning. Mostly you just spend an hour on the toilet and then you’re fine. But campylobacter can lay you low for a week or more. I didn't need antibiotics but it was horrible.

I had an upset stomach for a month after some dodgy shellfish. First 24 hours was explosive. It then settled down, but constant cramps and running to the loo whenever i ate anything.
