Posting this if you get this goto hospital early or SEE DOCTOR ASAP.
Not only did we just have violent weather here in our state and neighboring states.
Which for those who have allergies makes them go crazy.
It seems we have 7 metro area counties here where schools are closed due to flu outbreaks.
That's not the worst of it.
I work for large company where I am a Coach in supporting people.
I had my flu shot. DID NOT Protect me from what I had gotten.
Apparently there is not just the FLU.
I had gotten a Virus Bug that goes like this.
Tuesday
7am Breakfast after 30 min cardio.
9am Start of headache
Nausea (IE DON'T PUT Food in stomach feeling)
10am Sweating
Try drinking water stomach says stop
11am Disorientation / light headedness
12pm Fever temp 101
2pm Sweating / Weakness
4pm Diarrhea (40 minutes no stop.) (Friends called this start of Chinese water torture.
The above happens now ever 2 hours. Continues like time work. Till Thursday 7pm-8pm.
Wednesday
11am or so Body Aches
Cold Cold Cold
Sweating
Weakness
If you drink or eat (it will come out both ends)
Over the counter meds Do Not work at this point.
(comforts) Lots of blankets long hot hot showers)
Thursday
8am ish Kaopectate 2 tablespoons
Pedialite - small small cup
10am Kaopectate 2 tablets
Pedialite
9pm Diarrhea STOPS after all this time every 2 hours or less.
11pm crackers
Pedialite - Water
3am water / Gatorade more crackers
Extremely week even to this point but on solid food that is soft and bland and drinking TONS of fluids. Probably over 3 gallons of fluids now easily.
Went to see Doctor. Friend Drove me.
There is nothing he could have done other then hospitalization and pump body fully of fluids and other medications.
They state that they would have had hard time stopping Diarrhea due to they have had a lot of other cases similar to this bug.
Said antibiotics is not something they can do for curing this sickness. They do administer that since body is highly compromised in this state.
Gave me some fluid vitamins and was severely hydrated still. But I was on recovery I am still now.
This bug effectively knocked me on my arse with no recourse or escape.
It is debilitating while sick.
Recovery takes time don't push it.
WE call it at work "The Crud"
