Brief Answer:
Probably yes

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome. It sounds like gastritis or food poisoning and symptoms usually resolves within 24 hours in these cases. So I believe that you can go ti work if there is no vomiting and fever. Just try to have easier diet in next few days, avoid coffee, alcohol and spicy food. Drink memtha tea or take ranitidin for stomach ache. Wish you good health. Regards
