With regard to the OP, I hope they are feeling better. Severe food poisoning symptoms from a meal on the first sector would likely have come on during the connecting flight. Hopefully that wasn't the case but as others have said, unless there have been multiple reports of illness it may be related to something else (there is a lot of norovirus reported as going around Asia at the moment, for example).
Not just Asia where norovirus is prevalent, I was at a drinks event in London on Thursday and half of the London office of a large global investment firm has norovirus. I was not happy to find this out after I’d already started shaking hands!
