I thought it was food poisoning. If so, it's the worst case ever,

Colds and Flu in hot weather is the WORST.

5. Not the *Hiney* I hope
I had that in December... worst flu in my entire adult life. And wouldn't you know it, I was scheduled for an annual doc visit w/H1N1 vax a week after... grr!

I haven't heard of it making the rounds lately so look on the bright side... it's probably *just* the flu. Small consolation, I know but... it could be worse. I hope you feel better soon! :hug:

6. It started at 4am ,,,,
The most tactful way I can describe it is to say one toilet is not sufficient.

I was worrying about H1N1, but I don't seem to have a fever...that's one good thing.

31. Been there.
With a stomach virus I had a couple of years ago. Had to keep a bucket in the bathroom for a couple of days. I hadn't been so sick in at least 10 years.

28. We had something different here, I posted before I read symptoms.
Edited on Fri Jun-25-10 12:44 PM by redwitch
We had the fever, sore throat, headache, URI thingie which sent hubby by ambulance to hospital with full blown asthma attack awful.
No fun either but I have to say I prefer almost anything to the technicolor yawns/ diarrhea thingie.

21. Oh, no, please don't send kids to school w/this
My day off was not optional. I would have been sent home for throwing up in the nearest waste basket, if I had been able to drag myself in.

39. I actually did. The very first week I could...
in Oct. Never did get the H1N1 shot, though.

Maybe I got immunized too early, who knows?
