That would be rather uncommon over here. Most common cause in Europe is 
probably "food poisoning" (i.e. food gone bad) or a flu. Nothing severe 
enough to have you die of dehydration within hours, maybe except for 
people in bad health condition anyway. So here appropriate action is 
more like, "get the shit out", drink a lot, and if it's not starting to 
get somewhat better next day, start worrying a bit and see the doctor. 
Maybe send someone to the pharmacy right away to get you some medical 
coal, because that'll be the most common medication anyway and can't do 
harm.

Boil some milk until it skims up on the top,
then drink it. I know some people don't
believe in folk medicine, but I've never had
this fail to work.

Sounds like it was a pretty crappy situation, but I'm glad you're 
felling better -- for your sake and ours if you were going to post pictures!

  I suppose that without pics it didn't happen, or something.

I think this is the first time I've ever been happy that POV does *not* have 
a fluid simulation algorithm...

Glad you're feelin' better, there, fella. :-)
