Anyone else get that stomach bug going around? Me and several of my family members came down with it during christmas holidays. It was
horrible bye far the worst stomach bug i've ever had. Luckily it only lasted about 12 hours but took me three days to recover. Seems extrememly contagious.
I imagine it probably alot rougher on us that take antibiotics because there isn't alot of beneficial bacterial in our gut to help fight it off.

ugh.. Hope we can escape it over here!! Got a really bad norovirus or something about 6 yrs ago. It put my mother in the hospital and 4 others of us were all sick within one day of each other. It was terrible.
I sure hope you are feeling better now!!!!

My daughter had maybe a stomach virus right before Christmas. Thought it was from the antibiotics.
Lasted two days, but took a few days to recover.
Think she may have had a touch of one last week too.
I hope things are better for you now.

Yep. two of my kids got it. The rest of us managed to escape we took some anti-viral herbals to ward it off and have managed to keep it away.

You betcha. Severe abdominal pain Thursday Morning followed by two days straight of internal plumbing, and high fever 102.5F for two days straight. Now fever back under control.
For 4 years with Lyme I couldn't get my temp normal and the highest was 97.4. Now this took me into another threshold with the high temp. I look at it as finally my immune system worked, maybe we fried some of these little *******s.
Or was it all the Bart herx, who knows anymore.

We haven't had it yet, but some of my friends have had it.
They said it has been really rough.
Our family had a bug a couple years ago, tath we all came down with within a day--Wayde and I had it the worst, vomiting for 12-15 hours, followed by diarrhea.
Mike just had diarrhea and fever. Wesley threw up once and was done.
I'm just hoping to avoid it at all costs. I'd 100x rather have the sinus infection stuff that's going around.
