My sister's boyfriend got food poisoning on their flight to Italy last month. Struggled with it the week they were there and for another week once they got home and he eventually had to get taken to the hospital. He was so dehydrated and all of his electrolytes, etc were so out of whack that his kidneys were starting to shut down. He spent about a week in the hospital while they treated everything.
Food poisoning is definitely no joke! It can get really bad, really quick if you're not careful.
