| food poisoning?
strange thing today.
Me and my sister (not a JB) have gotten a really fuking huge, nasty headache relatively in the same spot on our heads. More strange is that we both have gotten it at about relatively the same time (this afternoon).
This headache is killing me and my sister. We both just ate 2 pain relief pills (extra strength Tylenol). Yet no effect is working.
Parents seem fine, but maybe it's because me and my sis are relatively close in age and parents are much older..
?????
could this be food poisoning?
If so, should I clear out my entire fridge? Maybe it's a container of bad milk?????
btw, me and my sis still have this headache. It's been a few hours now. I missed the canucks game cause I tried to sleep away this pain, which totally didn't work.

Have you both eaten the exact same things within the last 12 hours?

maybe breakfast (She woke up earlier than me so I'm not sure what she chose to eat for breakfast, but I had a simple bowl of cereal.) - 12 hrs
lunch (Pita bread filled with ham and vegie [I'm not sure what fillings she had in hers]) - between 6 to 10 hrs
I'd ask her what she had for breakfast and lunch right now, but she went to sleep.

btw, I've been having the same cereal this whole week, and it has been kept in a dry place.
for the pita bread, I had one 2 days ago as well. Didn't have any problem that night.
This is so strange.

It could be possibly a flu virus. Maybe one of you went out caught it from a friend, brought it home and your sister/you caught it. Are you guys having any other symptoms besides a headache? Such as vomitting? Stomach aches? Food poisoning is never JUST a headache.
Once my dad caught the flu from a client that is a doctor, the virus passed onto my brother, then me (and I had it worst). I was out of commission for days!!
As for food poisoning it shouldn't last for more than 24 hours as your body will auto-cleanse getting rid of all the bacteria. If it persists though you might have caught semonilla (spelling? sorry!) or something badass like that and will need a doctors aid.

This morning I did have a sore throat, but it may have just been the lack of water that I drink. Not sure about my sister though.
Basically, just a major headache for me and my sister. Maybe it's just a coincident?

Feeling a lot better after eating 2 extra-strength Tylenol pills.
I guess it was just a coincident that me and my sister both got a headache after all.
