My boyfriend suddenly came down with some pretty severe flu-like symptoms. He felt fine when he woke up this morning, and we ordered a pizza and about an hour after he ate he started getting hot flashes and I noticed he became very pale. And within the same hour the hot flashes turned into aches and nausea and eventually vomiting. He doesn't have a fever, although his skin feels very hot. (maybe my thermometer sucks) but he isn't complaining of any localized pain and he hasn't thrown up since that one time. Could this be flu or should I be worrying about possible food poisoning?

Just an added note... The reason I am asking is because he has no insurance. So I don't want to take him to the er if this is something that has to just work it's way out.
