Oh April, if you have what I have, I soooooooooooooooooo understand!!!!!!!!!!!
24 hours of thinking about if you should make sure your will is up to date!
Then it gets better. Take it easy. Let your body cleanse your gut from both directions, but try to make sure someone is near so you don't choke. (nearest person from me during that time was over the hill almost 2 raven flying miles away). It'll turn to basically liquid, both ends.
Rest. Breathe. Sip some water. It'll come out, but hopefully on the far end. Day 2, don't be too far from the bathroom, have the softest toilet paper...reality folks! Body is cleansing out the digestive system. Day 3, same, reducing. You notice waist feels thinner. It's empty in there. chicken soup beginning day 2...teaspoon at a time...day 3, soup that has meat in it.
My sister had it too. She thought she had Bubonic Plague! That's what it can feel like.
Actually, looks like Queen Elizabeth may have this bug too. At 84 they took her to the hospital. She's a tough ole gal, she'll be ok. She had to postpone a trip to Italy though, where she wants to make sure the newly elected officials are still friends and to offer support.
