Yes, this is poisoning
It seems you got poisoned indeed and the reason is low-quality food. Remember what exactly you have eaten recently and what seemed not quite fresh. You can get poisoned at one's place, cafes, a picnic and even at your house with the food you cooked on your own. The reason can be poor quality or spoiled products, dishes you cooked or kept violating sanitary standards. If the symptoms do bother you, we recommend visiting a doctor!
Food poisoning is not the reason
No, it doesn't relate to poisoning. Besides, you didn't eat recently something that could provoke this reaction. Probably, stress or exhaustion after a hard working week influences your state, and maybe something else - a symptom of another disease, but it has nothing to do with food. Look after your health, and if the symptoms do bother you, we recommend visiting a doctor!
