Yup your biggest fear is becoming dehydrated.
I know a little about meat. I was in that business for about 20 years.
Did you know the number one cause of salmonella is vegetables? Folks clean a chicken on the countertop then do not clean the countertop well enough before making a salad there. The chicken is cooked but the salad is not. Also when you get groceries be sure the kid sacking it up keeps the meat and other items seperate.
Most folks who think they have salmonella or food poisoning actually have some other cause for their nausea.
