Anyone Else Catch This?

[Terk-1]

A bug has torn through our family, with one person getting it from another and so on. Yesterday, it was my sister's & I turn. I made it to work in the morning, but got sick as soon as I got there and turned around and went home. All I've had is water, flat gingerale and crackers. As I got very little sleep last night (finally fell asleep around 5am, then was up again at 7am), I called out sick to work today. Trying to get through the day at work on 2 hours sleep, would not have been pleasant for anyone. Fell back to sleep around 9am and just woke up again. I'm holding things down today (still only having water and crackers), but my stomach and chest is sore as heck today.

Has anyone else picked this up?

Nope. I hope you feel better soon!

It went around here in Seattle about 3-4 weeks ago. It seemed to clear up pretty fast though, if that's any consolation Hope you feel better soon!

Yes... last week. No throwing but, let's just say, I didn't want to be too far from the bathroom.

Even though the worst of it was gone in about 4 days, my stomach stayed upset longer. It's just been the last day or so that food is starting to look good again.

Hope you feel better soon.

About 2 weeks ago, but no one in my household got it.

Lasted about 2 days for me, but my stomach hurt for about a total of 5 days.

well I think I am coming down with it today. I have an upset stomach and feel very run down. I have eaten very little. My sister had it Fri. and my niece a few days before. Hope my kids don't get it. They started school today!

One of the other girls on my floor (I'm in a college dorm) was hanging out on the bathroom floor this morning, because she lives about as far from the bathroom as you can get in this dorm and she felt like she would puke at any minute. I saw her cruising around with a backpack a few minutes ago, so obviously the worst of that feeling has left, but she's still looking pretty pale. Here's hoping that that's not the start of it, because if it is, there are a whole lot of us in trouble

Well, got some more sleep and attempted a 1/2 a bowl of chicken soup. Still sore and a bit tired, but better than yesterday (keeping the crackers, water and hopefully soup down). It went from one nephew, to the next, to the next, then to their mom, then to me and the other sister. Glad that happened to them last week and not this week, as they went back to school today. They were up and running in about 2 days, so hopefully it will be that way tomorrow for my sister and I. Am heading back to bed to watch some I Love Lucy and to get some more sleep. Was not sure if anyone else had picked this up or not.

I hope you feel better soon. :hugs:

But please keep that bug to yourself! I had it about 4 years ago. It actually started on New Years Day. My friends and I had a party and we spent the night at one of their houses. We all woke up that morning to one of the girls vomitting. Then within the next couple of days everyone else caught it. Starting off the new year with a bug wasn't fun.

Add me to the list. It started Sunday evening. I stayed out of work yesterday. My stomach's getting better and I wasn't in the bathroom immediately after dinner last night. I haven't thrown up, but I sure have felt like it several times. I found out last night that my niece that spent Saturday night with us had it last week as well as other family members. I guess that's who I got it from.

Wouldn't wish that bug on anyone. Made it to work today. Brought bread for toast, crackers and soup. Stomach is still pretty sore, but am at least keeping things down. Slept throught the night last night, thank goodness. Energy level is about 1/2 of what it usually is, but that's better than what it was. Yesterday was the 3rd time in 3 1/2 years at my job that I ever called out sick. Hope, anyone who has this, are feeling better soon! And those who have not had it, hope you don't. Not a very fun 2 days.
