I don't know if it's the one that hit CA last year, but it was bad. Worst flu I've ever had. Couldn't sleep because of the constant hurling and diarrhea. All I could keep down was Pedialyte and Popcycles. 40 flipping hours of it.

Got it Sunday night around 9:00 p.m., was ready to get an ambulance at 4:00 a.m. Tuesday morning. You can't lie down because you're so dizzy. It also felt like bugs were crawling all over me. Ewwwwwwww.

Should have gotten the flu shot.

Did they have any medicine to give you? There's really nothing they can give you for the flu. Boy, that doesn't sound like any kinka flu I've ever heard of. No that's not the lung flu from California.

A flu shot would not have helped you with an intestinal virus, sounds like you had food poisoning, e-coli or something similar. I have heard people call it the stomach flu but that only serves to confuse. What you had was not influenza.
