Update: Food Poisoning?

This past weekend was probably the greatest waste of time ever. I took saturday off from homework, assuming i would have the entirety of sunday to work on my research paper. Let's just say I am glad i started my research early, because i did absolutely nothing. The majority of my day on sunday was spent curled up into the fetal position, trying to sleep. From midnight on saturday all the way until 3 pm sunday, I did this, waking up roughly every hour to use the bathroom. The extreme agony in my stomach and bladder area was hard to explain and it also made me have to go pee a lot. I had hoped it was simply indigestion or something along those lines. Even a reaction to the ice cream would have been fine, since i have had a history of being slightly lactose intolerant. While i think it was the ice cream that did it to me, it is something totally different. My sister and her boyfriend had commented that the ice cream from DQ had tasted off, but mine had minty flavoring so i couldn't really discern a difference. I finished my ice cream and was fine until i went to bed. Then i began to feel the pain. On sunday night, my sister told me she had been sick (#2, common as she is lactose intolerant) and her boyfriend had been as well, for most of the morning (he had eaten his entire blizzard as well as some of my sisters). There is no way we are all lactose intolerant, so there had to be something wrong with the ice cream. So i have settled on food poisoning as the cause of my pain, even though i haven't thrown up. The fact that i haven't thrown up is the reason why i ruled out stomach flu, because when i had that in the summer, i threw up within a couple hours of my first symptoms. I am not very happy with DQ right now.

I wanted desperately to sleep all day today as well, but being the good student i am, i got up to go to class. What pissed me off is that my first class was a writing seminar, which is something i do not need. I have written multiple research papers and every history class in my two years here has done a seminar. My other class was a guest lecture though, so it is good that i came for that. Now, because i missed yesterday to work on my paper, i am doing it now, suffering through my stomach pains. Wonderful right?

If the pain continues, i will definitely be heading to the doctor. I have a ton of other things to talk to her about anyways.
