 [ Symptoms ] i am in my first trimester and ate an unwashed piece of cantaloupe how serious is the risk of listeria from this food  the cantaloupe was rinsed with water but not properly washed and did have some bruising i ate it immediately after it was cut i know that the fruit came from a farm in california where i have read that food safety for cantaloupes is taken more seriously can i still get tested for listeria how accurate would a test be at this stage [ Disease ] i would highly recommend heading to the er and having it checked out sometimes it could be an episode of severe heartburn or it could be something else    especially since you have pains in your chest
