Is there a stomach virus going around?

[xmas74]

I'm stuck at work, vomiting and overall feeling like crap. No one will relieve me until 7 am.
Just wondering if there is something going around?

1. I live in northern Quebec and there's a lot of peoples who...

Have the same problem,including me.And here on DU several peoples complained about the same symptoms.

5. One of my jobs is front desk at a motel

so I could have picked it up from a tourist.

2. There might something going around . . .

. . . in Tokyo?

:(

7. We did have some students in here a few days ago

from Japan. They were looking at the area college.
Those bastards-they gave me the damn flu!

3. You might be pregnant?

B-)

[xmas74]

6. BWAAAAAAAAAA!

Let's see-my daughter will be five in a few days and I broke up w/ her father when I was three months pregnant...NO CHANCE!

If I am then we are going into Armageddon or something.

9. So, what you are telling everyone on DU is . . .

. . . that you haven't had sex with a man for the last 5 1/2 years?

Well, neither have I!

We have something else in common.

B-)

10. Yes. I have not had sexual relations for the last 5 1/2 years.

Who has the time? Not the first year when I was working 60+ hrs per week and nursing a baby. Not the second and third year when I worked full time and finished my degree. Not the forth year when I had to work two jobs to pay for the college loans from years two and three. And the two jobs thing is not expected to change for quite a while.

11. Sexual relations ? What is that ?

Is it a new board game or something ? Never heard of it.

[xmas74]

13. I think that I've forgotten what it is.

I have to admit that only in *'s Amerika can a single mother who has been celebate for going on six years and works two jobs can still be called a welfare whore (I've heard it and I don't get assistance).

4. i had somethin a bit ago

wasnt vomit... it was coming out the regular end, but it was... you know...

but somehow i doubt you got anything from me.

8. doubt it too

but if it is something fast spreading it could have easily jumped into different regions.

[jeff30997]

12. Check post #1.

[xmas74]

15. saw it.

One of the few positives is that all of this vomiting will hopefully promote a small weight loss (I could only hope). Also, I notice that my abs always feel really tight before and after I vomit. So I must be getting some sort of decent ab workout.
Otherwise, I have been at work since 11 my time and have vomited almost every half an hour (total of 5 times). It sucks.

[Floogeldy]

17. Did you see posts #2, #3, and #9?

Oh. Okay.

Just checking.

[xmas74]

18. yep, yep and yep.

[jeff30997]

22. At least you see something positive about it.

[xmas74]

25. Otherwise, I would be truly miserable.

14. We've had a nasty bug hit

a few in this house, Like ME all weekend- and the worst was yesterday- fever, coughing, chills, stomach troubles, blah, blah.

It's them chemtrails...oh, shit Did I really say that? :tinfoilhat:

[xmas74]

16. Interesting-I did see some in the air yesterday.

I felt fine until a few hours ago.
I prefer to count this as a bug. Don't want to get out the tinfoil too soon!

[MissHoneychurch]

19. sounds awful

hope you feel better soon.

:hug:

[xmas74]

20. It didn't start until I got to work.

Up until then I felt just fine. Now I feel like crap.
Wonder if it might be environmental? Maybe they're using new cleaners or something?

[MissHoneychurch]

21. could be

or something you ate was bad. What did you had for dinner (if you can talk about it without getting sick again).

[xmas74]

24. let's not talk about food.

Callie had it and was just fine. Food poisoning would have hit much faster.

[MissHoneychurch]

26. ok

then it is your work surrounding.

It sucks that you can't get a replacement. How much longer for you?

[xmas74]

27. 5 hours.

[MissHoneychurch]

29. I hope for you that it is at least quiet tonight

[xmas74]

31. still feel sick.

I've haven't quit vomiting yet.

[MissHoneychurch]

33. poor you

anything that can take your mind off the sickness?

Edit: I know something. I'll pm you something

[xmas74]

34. thank you.

[Maddy McCall]

23. Yes. Going on three days for me.

I feel like shit.

[xmas74]

28. And statewise, we really aren't that far apart.

Some of our new airmen could have brought it w/ them around here.
This sucks.
