robert7111a Report post Posted November 29, 2012 Sounds like you are at the start of it. You may or may not get diarrhoea. Can take a few days so you shouldn't go back to work yet. It's really important to keep hydrated and rested. Herbal tea, boiled water/water/salt solution (the chemist does a "proper" concoction) Can be a really nasty bug Get better soon x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

puffin Report post Posted November 30, 2012 Winter vomiting virus is infectious for up to 48 hours after your last bout of vomiting so do not be tempted to go out and risk spreading it until your have been symptom free for 2 days - especially to a newborn baby who could get very ill Hope you feel better soon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robert7111a Report post Posted December 4, 2012 SmileyK, sorry to have to tell you this, but expect to have the virus for at least 3-5 days. Your body needs rest (so no gym!), plenty of water, fruit tea etc and you have to ride it out. Get well soon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sa Skimrande Report post Posted December 4, 2012 I had something over the weekend for about one evening as I was in close proximity to one who was really suffering, but it went and now nothing. But I have my flu pack ready just in case ; echinacea, 1000 mg Vitamin C fizzy things, garlic capsules and zinc tablets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smileyK Report post Posted December 4, 2012 ive also got the upset tummy this time too which didnt have the first time round with this virus! Yuk! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sa Skimrande Report post Posted December 4, 2012 Get yourself some echinacea and reinforce your immune system http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echinacea Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert7111a Report post Posted December 4, 2012 Get yourself some echinacea and reinforce your immune system Um... I think it's a bit late for now - but save for when you're fully recovered. You just have to let it run its course. I eat lots of garlic but that didn't stop me getting the bug. Biggest problem is lack of basic hand washing ... sadly for me, I have to shake a lot of hands in my job... Drink gallons of cold boiled water Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smileyK Report post Posted December 4, 2012 my tummy feeling so bloated and sore just hope i can rest without aching in pain and sleep peacefully!

Drink gallons of cold boiled water Not really, as the herb appears to boost the immune system so having a bug, it can't really cycle around back into the system and come at you another way if the immune system has built it's defensive walls higher, as I understand ongoing bugs attack weak defences and so stay as long as possible, work on the immune system and bugs are given a hard time.

A-S warrior Report post Posted December 7, 2012 Fast until the virus has left the body. The trick to any stomach virus is to starve it out. It feeds of what you eat, and they like carbs espeshilly. If you go to the gym you'll pass out, even die, theres no way your body will ever get hydrated enough. You should be over the worst, but i am certainly not a doctor, so if your no better by now (your last post was a few days ago) give them a ring.
