Newbie to this Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 It's when it comes out of both ends at once that it gets interesting! I had it last year came on while shooting at Bisley lucky enough I wasn't driving, don't know how but managed the journey home (around an hour) incident free.

Lord Geordie Posted October 25, 2017 Report Share Posted October 25, 2017 Wash your hands! If you have or had it! Don't prep food, even after washing hands! Try to avoid touching things in the house, if you flush the toilet, or use a door handle then clean and disinfect it. I had it a few year back and kept it to myself. My son escaped the horror luckily. Worst one ever! Sick every half hour or so for about 7 hours. Then off my food for a few days too.

Very sensible advice from lg, keep well hydrated as vommiting and diarohea will dehydrate you rapidly. If diarrohea persists speak to your pharmacist about loperamide which can be purchased over the counter. I wish you a speedy recovery atb 7diaw Edited October 25, 2017 by 7daysinaweek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 I had it a couple of years back - I never appreciated that it was actually possible to evacuate from both ends and at the same time. Saying that, theres nothing quite like feeling like death and having to jump off a toilet youve just pebbledashed to then put your head over to then violently throw up into. Sympathies to all who have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Since doing a lot of gym and fitness work over the last few years I've not had a vomiting episode. Other people in the family have had it and been sick, I did get unwell with stomach cramps and going to the toilet just no vomiting - knowing my luck I know I'll have a bad one next lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed 😉 but if you could get a certificate and the all clear from your doctor before venturing in a southerly direction that would be great 😂 On a serious note - hope your feeling better soon.

Located North of Hadrian's wall so hopefully far enough from you Me Matt! Check your company policy. In our council you have to phone in and alert them on the first day of your sickness, and if over 5 days you need a doctors note. Good luck mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
