Infection from the lake?

Question

I'm literally super worried I caught an infection from the lake on Memorial Day. I've been throwing up and shitting my brains out since we got back. I'm going to try and take another shower and some meds...but I feel gross because I feel like I caught something from the lake? Is that possible? Is it from getting a sunburn? Bad food? I have. No. idea. But does anyone have any advice on how to start feeling better? I feel like ass.

Answer

Could be a mixture of the sunburn and not eating, your body probably wore itself out, unless you drank lake water, I don’t think you’d get intestinal issues, more so a skin reaction

Answer

since 5am this morning Ive been having severe D&V; to the point I popped blood and weed blood and brought blood up in my sick... had my last spout at 1pm which was my 11th. 
Ive had a slice of toast and black coffee and feel more human. yet this morning I literally felt like death. I was sweaty, my tummy hurt and my heart was racing. looks like a bug is doing the rounds.

Answer

If blood is involved definitely contact your doctor, but yes you can get sick if you swallowed lake water. Lakes are full of poop and you can get norovirus if the lake is contaminated.

Answer

Possibly. My friend actually caught a parasite from a dam somewhere she went. She was sick for ages but no one could figure out what was wrong.

Answer

It's either food poisoning or a stomach bug. Rest and fluids.

Answer

Being in the sun for long periods of time can give you sun sickness. Best to call the Dr and make sure you aren't needing meds for a parasite or illness. It could just be food poisoning as well.
