stomach bug

I also got sick at about 10 last night, I'm still out of it and am having trouble walking around eating still. Plain rice and gatorade are staying down nicely.

I don't think it was anything but a very aggressive stomach virus. Cant really blame anyone for it, but man did it spread and man was it bad. I hope everyone who just got it today gets better soon. For 90% of us it seems that it lasted between 8-10 hours tops.

James wins this thread!

Did anyone else get sick Saturday night?

I don't mean to blame Diane at all, but I suspect she, and not any of the food, was the vector. These kind of bugs usually incubate for 24 hours and then unleash hell, and right now it seems like she was the only one that was sick Saturday and the rest of us got sick yesterday. That would suggest that she became infected on Friday, and the rest of us were infected on Saturday.

Like I said, though, please be clear that there's no blame to be assigned. Diane would have had no way of knowing she was contagious with a bug until it was far too late to do anything about it. Generally by the time you exhibit symptoms of a bug or cold, you have already passed through your most contagious phase. And likely she only passed it to a handful of people, who in turn passed it to a handful of others, and so on. I barely saw Diane this weekend, for example, and therefore I blame Geoff for my infection!

I just thank the heavens that I didn't have symptoms yesterday, or I don;t know how i would have survived 5 hours of flying.

I you Diane! I think my housemate Adam (Cael) may have had it Friday as well so don't worry you're not alone.
I'm glad most people seem to be feeling better I hope the rest of us feel  good soon too. John told me ice chips are a godsend and I have to agree with him right now. It's the only thing I have been able to keep down all day. If at all possible keep hydrated and eat cambles soup it has a high salt content to help.

Jello, the red kind is doing alright as well, if i drink too much water, well it comes out every orifice it can, ice chips are alright, but too much of it was making me feel cold and ill.  Last night i was delusional and yelling at Danny... we don't live together, nor was i in any shape of being able to talk to anyone.

Ice chips, jello, seem to work alright- i tried rice last night... that was unpleasant.

My own theory is that this is the superflu out of Stephen King's "The Stand."  See you all in Vegas.
