anyone one else sick?

[Jex]

So my wife and I have come down with something. Not sure what just been vomiting the last few hours, have been staying hydrated and since she is a vegetarian and I am not we do not eat the same things. So I doubt its food related. Makes me wonder if a stomach bug/thing is going around. Anyone else? Honestly for everyone else's sake I hope not, this is no fun.

Just wondering...where did you eat at?

There's always a bug going around. Or almost always. There was a thread last year about a GI illness that was making the rounds and someone Googled the local stats on GI illnesses treated at local hospitals and doctor's offices. At first I was amazed and appallled at the numbers. Then realized that with the climate and very high numbers of transient people in the area, it shouldn't have been a surprise at all.

I hope this is short and self limiting and you will both soon be able to resume your normal Disney vacationing.

Hope so as well, now going on 5 hours, do not feel that bad besides the constant violent throwing up.

Sorry, probably to much info.

There's a bug that had been goingn around here in Columbus. It was lasting people 6-12 hours and then they would finally be able to fall asleep and wake up fine. Hopefully you feel better!

I hope you guys both feel better. You might want to try some ginger ale.

I hope you're both feeling better this morning. It's horrible being sick on vacation.

Oh how awful, I hope you and your DW feels better soon so you can get on with your vacation. Thank you for the heads up though, we are leaving for WDW in 4 days. That is one thing I get nervous about, getting that sick while there (a sniffle or runny nose is fine), that is why I take disinfectant wipes with us and I wipe down everything in our hotel room, plus we have wipes in our back pack at all times (we also bring hand sanitizer too) . I guess I can understand how bugs or any type of viruses flies around WDW since there are so many people there at one given time, that someone is bound to catch something. Again I hope both of you feel better really soon.

It doesn't have to be something you ate. It could easily be something you drank or even the ice. If your server was sick or the ice or glass was touched by someone who transmitted it,you could easily get "food" poisoning from that. Food poisoning is just a name attached to several different illnesses.

Someone in our family gets sick EVERY. TIME. WE. GO. TO. DISNEY! Ugh...have now come to expect it. It doesn't stop us from going. We take Vitamin C for a few weeks before leaving and then while we are there. I pack a pharmacy with me just for this reason and without a doubt we use something! Just stinks! Hoping we avoid it next month for the first time We have encountered everything from pink eye to strep to just stomach bugs. Just try to get through and enjoy yourself.

Well that doesn't make me feel better, but good to know. I wouldn't wish this on anyone. Woke up today with my whole body sore. Still sick to my stomach. Wife feels better though, go figure.

I caught a nasty sinus infection. in sorry about the throwing up I'm not sure where I caught it from but my kids aren't sick so I'm really glad about that

 

[mmafan]

the stomach bug is always at Disney.......hand sanitizer with atleast 70% alcohol does wonders. we use it after every ride. so many people from so many parts of the world and tons of germs.

 

[RunningWithScissors]

There is a wicked 24 hour stomach virus going around here. Hope you guys get over it quickly!

 

[Good Morning Dewdrop]

We just got back (on Wednesday) from an 11 day trip - thankfully we're all fine.

I hope you all feel better soon!!!

Take emitrol for the vomiting... It works wonders! If you can get to a store. They have it at walgreens.

 

[Jex]

Just wanted to say thank you for all the well wishes. Feeling better, not right but better. Going to suck it up and go to a park, even if just to walk around and get out of the room.

 

[Jex]

And yes I will be washing my hands and not touching anything, as I have no desire to spread this around.
