IBS and the flu

(((Hugs))) Lil,
Its pretty common for most people to have an upset stomach with the flu. Go to bed young lady and drink plenty of fluids and keep that fever down with tylenol or advil.

I just wanted to pop in here and tell you to feel better Lil! I feel for you that's for sure......both of my kids are just getting over the flu and they were miserable (they have no gut troubles and they got D too). Get plenty of rest and feel better :)

I always get D with the flu, when I do get the Flu. And I too miss a lot of work. By coworkers are like "Are you taking vacation for the holidays?" I was like with what time, I have a day and a half vacation time, and I sure that sometime around the day after christmas, or the day after new years, I will have a flare up. Always happens after a big meal holiday, even when i do not eat that much :(

Hey Des, I'm feeling much better.... Thank you. I've been loading up on the Vitamin C and I stayed in bed all day yesterday. It was actually nice to lay around and do nothing. Back at work today though... with the sniffles and all that good stuff.

Take care. I hope your injuries are healing at a speedy rate.

I leave for three days and everyone starts falling apart!?  I'm sorry you girls are feeling more under the weather than usual!  Mmm, bed is wonderful, isn't it?  Chicken soup and RICE, always the cures for what ails ya!

See Sarita... you must be the glue that holds us :)

I'm sorry that you are feeling worse again Lil. Sniffles and snorting huh? And they haven't sent you home yet? Here if you are doing that, they are chasing you out the door and acting like you have the plague or something.

Thanks, girls. I'm still at work. They don't send us home here unless we are dying or puking everywhere. I feel guilty for missing work so I will push through for a little while. I hope to leave early though and get to bed.

Sarita, I'm so glad you had a great time away.
