Not too long ago I contracted Scromboid poisoning. I consider myself to be a pescatarian like the Japanese in Okinawa.Some of my friends thought that I was down with the measles. No, I had that in my native country, Switzerland when I was only 13 years old. Started out with nausea, then a couple of vomiting episodes, but the rash developed like I had experienced before in Switzerland. I really thought that I might have been one of the rare folk that could get measles again. Well I saw my doctor and it was not measles, but after some tests, I had been diagnosed with having scromboid poisoning. The diarrhoea was bad enough, but i could handle that compared to the constant annoying itching from the rash which was practically almost all over my body. Well I had endured this taking Benedril, for two and a half to three days. Then miraculously, I made a full recovery with no complications.
I got this when I was about 11 or 12 from school tuna. I had migraines with aura, nausea then I lost feeling in my legs, lost my hearing momentarily but it came back as soon as I got better. I couldn't see. Worse experience of my life!
Just ate a massive tuna steak that I put tonnes of pepper on. Though it tasted weird but stuck with it, now I’m bright red like a tomato. Take care out here kids 😂
Getting it today after eating tuna steak for like 10mins. My skin becomes bright red like tomatoes, headache and my heart beating like I just came from a Marathon. Still have no idea when it's gone
Good information. People also report a numbness in the mouth or palate or a metallic taste/feeling, like biting on a fork, from the histamine reaction. Escolar is another fish that's very susceptible to causing scombroid poisoning.

Thanks it's amazing video
Where did you get the picture of the man with the scombroid symptoms? I am putting together a lecture and I want to be able to credit the source
Unreal how common this is in Hawaii yet nobody knows about it. We always eat dark meat ocean fish.
