Food Poisoning or Bug?

I haven't felt 100% all week with shivers and headaches coming and going.

Had a vile headache yesterday but it went after some paracetemol.

Last night I had a readymeal from the supermarket reduced section. The chicken & blackbean and spring rolls were on their sell by date. The rice was fine.

I also had a couple of glasses of wine and half a bar of Galaxy.

Went to bed around 11pm. Woke up at 1ish with a raging thirst.

Woke up again at 3 with tummy ache. Spent the next hour mainly being sick. Also had to use the loo a couple of times.

Went white, dizzy, cold sweat and felt like I was going to pass out.

Back in bed by just after 4am feeling very ropey but no more sick etc.

Feel okay-ish now. Still got a little headache and I feel a bit peckish.

So, food poisoning or bug/virus?

TIA, am worried dd will have it and she's staying with Grandma at the mo (hence wine, choc and readymeal treat for me!)

Sounds like a virus that was possibly made worse by the food/wine. I had something similar last week - I felt ill all week, then was finally really ill one night, then I got better. I put it down to a virus.
