Puking and crying... The stomach flu.

[warDialer]

TERRIBLE stomach flu making the rounds. Spent the last 24 hours hallucinating, face in the toilet, contemplating adult diapers.
Any other victims?

I had a 24 hour bug, but I seem to be ok now.

A few people people at work, and a couple friends weren't soo lucky

7up, saltines, wet wash cloth and someone to rub your tummy for you. Docs orders When you can keep down the crackers, upgrade to chicken noodle soup.

sounds like baby wants his bottle

Remember BRAT

Bannanas
Rice
Apple Sauce
Toast

Don't drink much water or you'll keep puking. Be glad you don't have a kid crawling all over you wanting attention. That magnifies the misery by about 10x.

Last year me, my wife and my 8 year old were like that for 5 days. The only one not sick was the toddler, who couldn't give a shit how bad we felt!

Last Tuesday - felt like my head was going to explode, horrible sore throat, fever, chills but gone in 12 hours....thank god...

I had two crazy flus this year, in addition to 3 weeks worth of f'in MONO! I think the one currently going around clears up reasonably quickly...

A glass of water with 6 teaspoons of Epsom Salts will fix you right up.

The sound of a machine gun firing into a bucket of water?

I have found that lying on the shower floor with the warm water running on a sprinkle helps and I'm able to catch brief moments of rest between convulsions.

For anyone that has a sore throat and doesn't want to die of swine flu, go to the doctor.

Military On Demand might be the cure. Getting my Corsair, P40, Spitfire fix on. Thanks for all the advice. I'm onto the chicken noodle soup stage!

I lost 8lbs in 4 days in Beijing last year to similar symptoms, but a different cause. My wife and I refer to it as "The Beijing Diet". I still feel bad for the maid!

popsicles are a really good way to keep hydrated, but at an extremely gradual, gentle rate so you don't throw up. Ice chips also work. Overcooked white rice is also good, and peppermint tea if you're feeling nauseous.
When you're that sick, I always suggest keeping a bucket handy for tossing your groceries... infinitely preferable to the alternative previously mentioned by the OP...

Awesome
That happened to me once after food poisoning in the Phillipines. I remember the dilemma…poo first, and have to put my face into the non-flush toilet to vomit, or take the chance of pooing in pants while vomiting.

Good times!
