Virus slide...

Speaking of shots - Last night after dinner, my digestive health took a very hard turn to the worst. Everything from the runs to tossing my cookies, cold sweats, hot sweats, extreme weakness, all the signs of either food poisoning or the stomach flu.

I was thinking food poisoning because I ate at a Chinese restaurant yesterday for lunch, one where I had never eaten before. And I liked it - a milder flavor, not quite “run-of-the-mill” Chinese food that most sell.

Anyway, I texted a co-worker this afternoon because he had gotten the Rona shot and felt a little sick afterwards. Well, lo and behold, he had the same symptoms as I had last night at work and today at home. He thought it was food poisoning from eating some leftover Mexican food at work.

Given that we had similar symptoms with different dietary input, I’m thinking this is a bug going around. What we used to call the 24 hour bug when I was a kid about 4000 years ago.

Anyway, feeling much better now, but still weak an unable to hold in much food. But I’m glad that the worst is over. It was pretty treacherous for a while there, same as my co-worker. I texted them today and mentioned that they will want to be extra vigilant about wiping down the work areas and desks because if everybody is off with the stomach flu, it could be a serious situation.

Your symptoms reminded me of norovirus.
