I'm supposed to go to the doctor on Friday for my last post truck mishap exam. If I'm still sick by then, I'll definitely bring it up at that visit.
pshrynk mentioned "positional nausea" which can result from screaming trots (which I most certainly had from 2am on Sunday until my guts were squeaky clean several hours later), so my guess is that that's what I'm dealing with.
I've had Salmonella food poisoning before, and as bad as this has been, it is no way as bad as that was .... I feel like holy hell, but with that I was actively praying for death. So, whatever it is .... virus or bacterial .... stomach "flu" or food poisoning .... I'm pretty sure it isn't going to kill me.
I've kept down three fruit and grain bars and half a bottle of Lipton Green Tea so far today, and the worst symptom (other than when I fed the cats this morning) has been three or four killer farts.
That's progress, right??
