Noro is a quick one. I bet you are still out of gas and need to get your lytes and fluids back up. When you do, you will feel better!

Ugh, it hit me at 0100 last night. Had to call in ( that made them real happy). Hope you feel better soon. I am hoping I do too.

Icky!!!! Hope you are better soon.

I work in a facility that has about 70 residents,about one month ago We got a very VERY bad case of the noro virus more than half the staff got sick at least half the residents got sick and some were between 4-6 residents became so ill and weak they actually died. I personally took care of several and was one of the lucky few not to get the virus. We have actually had 14 residents pass away in the last two months from various illnesses are cenus is some were around 60 now . so needless to say its been a rough start to winter

Quote from CheesePotatoThis! This! This!Sweet heaven, I just had acute onset explosive carbonated citrus rhinorrhea.Although I hope you feel better, if catching Ebola makes you this entertaining, a dark little part of me hopes you never recover so long as you continue to turn out amazing moments such as the one highlighted above.Alas, feeling better is a must. Take care of yourself, lady.~~CP~~

OH! I hope u feel better SOON!!! And I never know how bad I actually feel until the Phenergan and IVF kick in. I hope that u are back to normal asap.For some reason at our house, if I get sick, dh says "Oh, come on. Can't be THAT bad." (And yes, he is also an RN)Now, if HE catches same thing, whether it be GI, resp, whatever, you hear the phrase repeatedly -"Babe, I'm dying." Anne, RNC

From personal experience, a bad case of the stomach flu will chew you up, spit you out, and knock you to your knees. Yes, it's that bad...Recuperate soon, Viva!

I floated to a unit recently to cover for a nurse who was out sick with both norovirus AND pinkeye! Combine the torture of 2 different illnesses and I would feel ready to die too.

Trust you to find humor in a very icky situation! Glad you're feeling better.
