ST knows best: I'm pretty sure I got salmonella from peanut butter at a Coldstone Creamery on Friday. I'm feeling better now, but should I...

Report this to somebody?

My doctor is out today and his service says he has no openings tomorrow. I'm feeling better (fever broke, no chills/shaking, no more gross stuff) but not much of an appetite.

My roommate seriously wants me to "call the CDC hotline" whatever that is.

My dog wants me to lay in bed so he can keep watch on whatever is making those strange noises in my stomach. He barks at them until they stop, then he gets all happy like he made them stop.

CDC=Center for Disease Control. Go to a walk in medical center. -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 11:09
And leave a *detailed* message of all your symptoms: Color, smell, consistency. They *really* need to know this. -- nm - TWuG Jan 19, 11:05 4
- How would you like to have the job of listening to those messages? -- nm - Dano Jan 19, 11:10 3
  - they probably have a forum internally that they post looney messages to - Beryllium Jan 19, 11:15
  - beats the heck out of testing the samples. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 11:12 1
    - wipes glasses clean, thinks about putting in my contacts, what I read 'tasting' the samples -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 19, 11:25
You probably don't want to be this confrontational, but maybe tell the manager of that location. - con_carne Jan 19, 11:05 8
- he'd get more ... - zork Jan 19, 11:06 7
  - It might be good to let the store manager know so that he stops using the peanut butter. -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 11:10 6
    - he should have already stopped. he shouldn't have served it. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 11:11 5
      - How would he know to stop if people don't tell him? - con_carne Jan 19, 11:16 4
        
        with the nationwide peanut butter scare going on, recall notices should have arrived at his place of operation already -- nm - Beryllium Jan 19, 11:19 2
        
        I didn't know such a thing was happening. Is ceregon in Canada? -- nm - con_carne Jan 19, 11:22 1
        
        uh, it's an FDA/CDC/US thing. Only one person in Canad ahas been affected, the majority of cases are in the US. -- nm - Beryllium Jan 19, 11:26
        
        probably the peanuts were rec'd contaminated. even more reason for CDC to be involved. -- nm - zork Jan 19, 11:17
sue them! -- nm - zork Jan 19, 11:04
I would call the CDC hotline. they really want to know. -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 11:04 3
- I concur. They are trained in recognizing symptons, knowing if you are what they are looking for, and taking appropriate action. -- nm - ty97 Jan 19, 11:05 2
  - they also would want to make sure that nobody else got sick too. -- nm - zork Jan 19, 11:06 1
    - I concur with all of these posts. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 11:10
