Ok, on Tuesday I noticed that my stomach was not behaving very well and on Wednesday I did not go to work because I had a fever, chills, diarrhea, and bad headaches. I had to go to the bathroom at least once every hour and my stool was a little mucusish. Now, I'm much better and almost fully functional and I suspect I had food poisoning but I read online that there is usually vomiting and blood in the diarrhea. So my question is what was wrong with me?

Im sick

Sounds like food poisoning.
-
i guess it was from the general's chicken i ate on monday, if anybody else has any suggestions,opinions, or comments it would be greatly appretiated.

Blood in the diarrhoea would be rare in ordinary cases of food poisoning, but your fever and chills suggest it may have been a virus rather than food poisoning.

your fever and chills suggest it may have been a virusCould be, especially if it was a higher fever. Also, eating or drinking something that contains a virus (like Norwalk virus or rotavirus) can cause food poisoning. That kind of think is usually caused by employees who don't properly wash their hands after going to the bathroom (or don't wash their hands at all), and then handle food or utensils. But food poisoning doesn't necessarily imply bacterial infection. (Food poisoning can also be caused by chemical contamination, or by toxins that were produced by now-dead bacteria.)At this point, no definitive answer can be given. If it was caused by a certain restaurant and other people who got sick make themselves known, there will be some evidence pointing to the problem.
