There are a couple of suspects. Could have been the Indian food I ate at lunch, or (more likely given onset time) the batch of chile I made that evening. Hard to tell with these things sometimes. The latter was mainly canned ingredients (tomatoes, beans, chile peppers), but I guess it’s possible the ground beef was bad - though it looked and smelled fine before I browned it.

Went to bed Tuesday night feeling OK. Woken up at 3:30am by a very nasty leg cramp (implying dehydration) and feeling queasy. Was vomiting about an hour later and had a nasty headache.

My take is that my digestive system shut itself down and then eventually purged. Thus the dehydration (headache, cramps, etc.) and a low fever.

Yesterday was spent sleeping intermittently while getting liquids to stay down - mainly water. Better since last night, but still a bit queasy and feeling tired.

Hope you feel better soon & your overlords give you lots of love.
