I've been up puking all night..

[nini]

just thought I'd share :D


hope it ain't the stinking flu :cry:

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

1. And THANK YOU...

For sharing! ;-)

I hope you feel better. Don't dehydrate. Really.

[nini]

3. the dehydration is an issue.. I'm afraid to drink anything

I've already got that icky headache


thanks :-)

[SoCalDem]

11. POPSICLES.... ASAP

That will keep you from dehydrating and should not upset your stomach

[nini]

12. I don't have any.... and no one else is awake yet to call for a store run

hopefully soon I can put out an SOS call.

Thanks.. great idea. I had actually forgot about popsiscles.. was thinking more of 7Up but popsicles sound better.

[SoCalDem]

13. I used to freeze gatorade when my kids were little

and frozen jello cubes too.. The melt-in-your mouth makes sure that your tummy does not get hit with a bunch of liquid all at once :)

[nini]

15. good idea..

I'm afraid to take more than a tiny sip of water now.. well, others should be waking up soon enough and will get my call for mercy :-)

Wish I could go back to sleep but my head hurts too much at this point.

fun


thanks

2. That sucks, I'm sorry to hear it. I feel for you. hope it's short-lived.

wish I had some advice, besides wear a hairtie if you have longish hair. and be sure to stay hydrated, being dehydrated can make you more nauseous, leading to a viscious cycle. I've had to go the hospital for saline infusion when I that happened. If you can't keeo down water, try to at least suck on some ice.

[nini]

4. yep, I have long hair and it was a close call on the first round

:-)

I'm sipping water and know I need more - wish I had some pedialtye or similar

thanks!

5. Was there anything interesting in it?

Please give us all the details.}(

Take care of yourself OK? Get something that has electrolytes in it, like Gatorade. If you can't keep fluid down, try popsicles.

On edit, real flu as in Influenza, doesn't usually involve puking. It's most likely some sort of food poisoning. (Microbiology class)

[nini]

6. not really.. though I didn't examine it very closely

:D

oh gawd.. just the thought :puke:


thanks.. I'm trying to get the fluids down.


saw your edit.. I heard that before too. was wondering though because my temperature is about 101... hmmmm regardless it's not fun.

[distantearlywarning]

17. This was going around in my area of the country last month.

If you have a temp., it's probably the same stomach virus that I had in October, not food poisoning.

Somebody else on DU had this last week as I recall.

[nini]

18. I just woke up again with the chills

I think you're right.

freezing cold and hot at the same time :cry:

[GOPFighter]

7. You have my sympathy

Getting sick really sucks (and getting sick on a weekend sucks even more!) I hope it passes quickly.

[nini]

8. thanks....

I always seem to get stuff on weekends.. odd.

my job appreciates it though :-)

[underseasurveyor]

9. I feel for ya nini

I'd rather be miserable sick in bed for a week versus 1 day of puking. Oh how I've always hated that.

Suck on some crushed ice and stay hydrated is the main thing.
Hope you feel better very VERY soon. :hug:

[nini]

10. HI there...

changed your name eh?

I'm with you.. I'd rather be sick for a couple days than this. Hating the aftermath headache the most now.

Good to see you here. I'm never here this early!

Thanks!

:hug:

[RaleighNCDUer]

14. Gotta watch out for that bad turkey dressing --- n/t

[nini]

16. :-) don't think that was it

I didn't have any TG leftovers yesterday.

hmmmmmmmmmm

[Zomby Woof]

19. my belches weren't that gross

It must be something else. :o

Take the day off, that's what I would do! :hug:

[nini]

20. LOL

leave it to you to make me laugh.

Don't know what it is.. but Spanky decided to join those activities himself. hmmm


I am gonna take the day off but I do have to go check on my sister's cat. I may lay on her couch and listen to the stream outside her patio for a while. :-)

:hug: back at ya brat

[Zomby Woof]

21. don't puke on her couch

Unless the color scheme allows for it. You must puke on furniture discreetly in order to get away with it.

If she asks what is that smell, you just shrug and say "I dunno!" Problem solved!

[nini]

22. sounds like you've had experience with this?

ha.. reminds me of high school parties and there was always someone that barfed all over the carpets or chairs. Our stupid teenage efforts to camoflauge the smell never worked.


or I can just blame the cat... ahhh that's it!

ugh.. the thought of doing that again :cry:

[Zomby Woof]

23. naw

I made the toilet or balcony every time! But I do remember at one friend's house where he puked right on the living room carpet, which was this gnarly combo of colors anyway...put my hand right in it when I lifted him up... :puke:

It was his 16th birthday. It's a wonder we lived through high school.

[nini]

24. ewwwwwwwwwwww LOL

aacckkkkk.. that would have made me hurl right there..

no kidding about living through high school. Bad enough we'd get drunk like that, but then we'd drive home because God forbid we called a parent because then they'd know we had been drinking!!! :eyes:


ok WD.. I'm think I'm going back to sleep. I have this raging headache :-(


Have a good day! :hug:

[Zomby Woof]

25. GET BETTER

It's an order from Dr.Zomby, Medicine Man of Poop! :hug:

[nini]

26. but IT'S SO COLD!

lol

sorry - couldn't resist. LOL

thanks.. I hope I do so quickly.

[212demop]

27. a glass of seltzer with about a cm of bitters

it's a miracle!

[rug]

28. Be well

The first heave does the most good.
