I could use some input! The other night I woke up about two hours after I went to bed with an urge to go to the bathroom. As I was in the bathroom I had the WORST stomach PAIN associated with horrible diharreah (but not watery) and vomiting. At the same time I got really really hot. I could not stop sweating. This lasted for several minutes. Today I had a stool analysis (maybe rule out c-diff). But, I've been able to eat and drink as usual for for the past 24 hrs. with no more problems. Any thoughts??? Please help.

most persons recover without treatment. (Source: excerpt from Salmonellosis (General): DBMD) ...
While most people recover successfully from salmonellosis, a few will experience long-term symptoms such as arthritis.
Salmonellosis can be a very serious or even deadly infection in those who are very young, elderly, or have weakened immune systems. (Source: excerpt from Foodborne Diseases, NIAID Fact Sheet: NIAID)
Duration of Salmonella food poisoning: Duration of symptoms -- Acute symptoms may last for 1 to 2 days or may be prolonged, again depending on host factors, ingested dose, and strain characteristics. (Source: FDA Bad Bug Book)
Deaths from Salmonella food poisoning: estimated 1,000 deaths each year (DBMD); 38 reported deaths (NVSR Sep 2001)
