I've been very ill today

I'm feeling better now but I woke up at 330 AM last night with diarrhea and vomiting that lasted till a bit after noon. I kept drinking things like lemonade and Seven-Up and hot tea and water, to keep my fluids up even tho a lot of time they just came back up. At noon when I thought I could keep it down, I took an anti-diarrheal pill.

About 2 I thought it safe enough to eat a few crackers and about five I ate a banana and some almonds. Still weak and shaky but not hungry. I haven't been out of the house all day but intend to go to the bookstore tomorrow and run my local Writer's group tomorrow night.

This appears to have been food poisoning rather than anything like the flu. I ate a hamburger from a drive-thru at 10 pm last night and I don't think I will go to that place anymore.

Sorry I wasn't around more today, I spent most of the day in bed or in the bathroom.

Hugs,
Erin

Quit it.

Feel better, Rothgnar, the dark lord that dwells within us all (and makes really good cookies) demands it!

Be sure to let the manager

Be sure to let the manager know, so they can take steps before everything is contaminated.


I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.

My sympathies food poisoning is not fun... When I had it I spent the majority of the first two days in the bathroom... and even after the initial period was over I wasn't back to my old self until after about two weeks. Hopefully, you'll recover more quickly than I did.


Have delightfully devious day,

Get well soon.

This sort of thing is not fun at all. When I have something like this happen, like you I try to drink lots of fluids but I must confess that I am a consummate whiner when sick, and become so demanding that I am intolerable. :)

Get well soon, please.

I hope you're feeling much better now. Please take it easy and do avoid that burger place. Though it would be nice to warn them like someone else suggested, to prevent others from getting sick more so than helping the burger place.

Glad to hear that you're

feeling better. I'm in India right now and being very careful what I eat. I've gotten sick two of the 4 trips I've made here and hope I now have the routine to stay healthy.

Take good care of yourself,

Take good care of yourself, Erin. It sounds like you're doing the right things and on the mend.

Thank you for all you do for us.

No need to apologize

Your health is more important than this site. Hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for everything you do.

I hate when that happens. Hope you feel better soon.

PS. I wish that would really work in the RL, the dust that is.
But then there are a few other bits of magic I would like too.
