Food poisoning or stomach bug?

My family and I flown back from holiday Monday night and about an hour after eating in flight meal, that was when I started to feel nauseous and ill. Luckily we was touching down in an hour so I held it in and hoped it was nothing!

Got to the airport and I ran straight to the toilet and vomited! I felt very ill at this stage. I was sick 2 times on the way home, another 2 times at home and I also had diarrhoea about 4 times as well. I felt extremely weak and lethargic, had a fever, pounding headache and was constantly tired despite sleeping early and sleeping all afternoon the next day!

Neither of my family got food poisoning, only I did! Do you think it was definitely food poisoning? Also I still don't feel 100% and got a stomach ache. I could only eat two slices of toast yesterday :(

Can't tell from that. If several other people ate the same in-flight meal as you without getting ill it's more likely to be a bug you picked up during the last day of your holiday. That's not going to make you feel any less ill than if it were food poisoning, though: it just means you don't have to see a doctor and get the local authority notified.
