Don't know if anyone out there has been dealing with is nasty bug this year but in the last week it's run through my whole family. It's like a really bad flu but with symptoms of food poisoning, too. Projectile vomiting, explosive diarrhea, fever, chills, bad headache, the works. My wife contracted it when she took my mil to the ER earlier this week. She spent almost 4 hours there while people around her were puking in buckets & almost passing out. Surprise, she came down with it 48 hrs later. She was up all night getting sick out of both ends & was in such bad shape the next day I ended up taking HER to the ER after talking with my doctor. Then of course I come down with this hellish bug. Didn't go to the hospital but have spent the last few days dealing with it. My son has caught it as well, puke buckets by the bed for everyone. At least the dog hasn't shown symptoms yet.
It's actually become an epidemic around here as of the last month or two. Whole schools have been shut down due to outbreaks & it's extremely CONTAGIOUS.
This is probably the sickest I've ever been is a short space of time. At least the ER doc told me it generally runs it's course within 5 days or less....
