I’ve seen this described as: If the caboose of a train (food in your stomach) has a bomb (spoiled food or toxins from a pathogen), the whole train needs to start moving faster to get the bomb out of town (your body).

Since muscles are what moves that “train,”moving faster can cause cramps, just like quickly overexercising any muscle can.

If you don’t then experience any loose stools or frequent bowel movements, it may be more likely that the pain is directly from the toxins instead of cramping from diarrhea

Severe alcohol withdrawal causes seizures in the same population. WK syndrome is lifelong, but some of the effects of alcoholism can be reversed.

The actual question was if it’s safe to use a heater when I’m using volatile chemicals in the same room, and if so, what type of heater is appropriate.

I work weekends, sadly. Hopefully it will be warm and dry enough when I have a day off again!

So citristrip, dry well, sand in the basement?

Not trolling, just dumb.
