    really sick

    main symtoms:

    1. uncontrollable vomiting
    2. when vomiting i shit at the same time and the stool is 99% clear with some grainyness

    developing symtopms:

    1. extremly sore back and joints, i assume from the multiple puking episodes, can't sleep or even lay down because the pain is so intense


    mother in law got it from work from another employee, daughter got it the next day about 20 hours after mother got symptoms, wife got it about 8 hours after daughter, i got it 20 hours after wife.

    i assume its something viral but i would like to nail it down a little bit more

    ib4 n1h1, pig flu, etc

    on the shitter with bucket in floor in front of my feet, i think this is why i have the severe back pain

    start at about midnight last night and had an episode roughly every 30 mins, the strangest part is the clear stool which i assume is from the copious amounts of water i am drinking to avoid the dry heaves (which unfortunately also causes more episodes if i drink to much)

    See an actual doctor advice aside be sure to drink lots of water to make up for the shits/puking or the dehydration will kick your ass later.

    wife was able to sleep it off and so was the kiddo/mother in law however with my insane back pain i can't lay down, have tried heat pads and a535 which both worked for a bit but now they have lost there affect. i'm running on probably 3 hours of sleep since midnight EST and im extremly tired having trouble walking with the joint/back pain and still having episodes every 45-1hr depending on how much water i drink

    You probably caught a stomach flu. Drink plenty of water and eat plenty of fruits/vitamins to help your immune system but if you're going to *eat* only eat liquid-medium foods like tomato soup.

    He just wanted to come in here and brag about his explosive diarrhea/vomiting.

    Congratulations. Also either go see a doctor or just wait it out like your wife and kid.

    Norovirus.

    It spreads easily and hospitals won't take you in (because it will endanger the lives of patients in rough condition, especially the elderly.)

    You puke when you drink water right? Drink smaller amounts and you might get to keep it. You need water to compensate for the dehydration. The hospital will give you hydrating injections if you can't keep small amounts either.

    if youre vomiting and shitting youre coming up on dehydration and fast... you may need to go to the hospital to get an IV to rehydrate and a few doses of anti-nausea medicine.

    so if you cant sleep and are losing fluids that fast, you need to see a doctor...

    actually, don't drink lots of water, thats exactly where youre going wrong. i picked up a little trick from a clinic in south america; drink small amounts of rice water. yeah, rice water, boil a bit of water with some rice in it and it should be fine. a tablespoon every 3 to 5 mins should do.

    seriously though go see a doctor just to be safe
