Is this food poisoning? Flu?

Well....as some of you know, my husband and I went away on a little trip this weekend in the mountains and "camped out" at a hotel. We had a wonderful trip and had so much fun. Last night, however, about an hour or so after we got home. I was eating a little bit and my stomach started rumbling and I got horrible stomach cramps. I sat in the bathroom forever, doubled over in agony waiting for the "explosion", but all that came was gas...then more rumbling. Every time I'd cramp up, I'd get the sweats and so I sat there some more with a cold washcloth on my face waiting for something to happen. I felt horrible. I finally was able to leave the bathroom and lay down on the bed for a couple minutes and then had to rush into the bathroom again and this time everything finally passed and it was like "peeing from the wrong hole". Sorry for all the gross details. I felt like I got rid of 2 gallons!! I felt better after that and didn't have any more trouble until this morning. It wasn't as bad as last night, but there was a small amount of blood. I was thinking it was food poisoning, but after talking to people here at work, I am thinking it's a touch of the flu. Several co-workers said they knew someone who had stomach flu and one guy I work with is out sick with it today. Has anyone else here experienced this lately? I'm feeling better this afternoon, but haven't eaten anything since breakfast other than a string cheese, water, and peanut butter and crackers all day.
