What happened

I finished up a site in [REDACTED] and I wasn 't feeling very good so I stopped at a gas station before getting on [REDACTED] to head to my next site in [REDACTED]. I had been drinking water all morning but was feeling overheated. I got back on [REDACTED] but soon needed to stop somewhere again because I felt I needed to throw up. I stopped at a random gas station I think in [REDACTED] and I just couldn 't stop throwing up for the longest time. At this point I think is when I contacted supervisor and let her know I 'd be heading in for the day. I sat in my vans a c for a bit and got some garbage bags. I waited until I felt a little better before trying to drive again. I felt ok for a few minutes but then I started to feel faint dizzy and began to throw up while driving (into the garbage bags as best I could). I got off [REDACTED] at the first exit and just tried to safely make my way to a parking lot. I parked in a [REDACTED] 's parking lot somewhere then I continued to get sick. Durin
