Gastroenteritis

Jonbo298 · 09-18-2005, 11:34 AM

Anyone else ever been through the hell that is called Gastroenteritis? I've been dealing with it since Friday and...wow...I havent felt this much pain in many years

Crash · 09-18-2005, 02:51 PM

no idea what it is, why dont you tell us

Jonbo298 · 09-18-2005, 03:08 PM

Well, here's what I got (maybe some graphic detail but you asked for it

)

Its not a normal stomach ache. Its hard to walk. I'm slightly hunched over and walk like an old man otherwise stomach hurts too much. Its like musces around stomach were hit hardest.

I lost all appetite around Friday evening/Saturday. Lost 2.5 lbs since Friday. Eating any kind of food, it comes back later to haunt me

"Bathroom stuff". I'll leave it to your imagination

Breathing deeply is impossible. Hurts too much but can breathe "normally". Can't sleep in bed, stretches stomach and hurts too much. Have to sleep in recliner for now.

So...yeah...don't ever get this. Its hell

Do you know how you got it?

Too many wild nights?

Loss of weight, loss of apetite, violent ****ting, hurting stomache, maybe you should cut back on the cocaine?

Jonbo298 · 09-18-2005, 03:56 PM

Most likely got it from work (work in a call center, yay >_> )

I asked person that you call in for if there had been alot calling in sick and she said yeah, alot have.

I wish I could have "wild nights" but I'm a Bachelor with only a cat for company

Thats EXACTLY why you can have wild nights.

The cat wont mind if you go out and meet random girls, or go out with the guys and get totally ****tered.

Actually I think I do understand what youre going through. A couple years ago I had a virus that made me vomit anything I ate or drank, and it was certainly not a fun time. It only lasted 24 hours though, maybe I had something different.

I remember my chest was really sore from vomiting about 50 times a day. It was certainly not fun

Fever, diarrhoea and vomiting caused by an infectious virus is not fun.

Curse the person who gave it to you!

Get well soon, friend.

Jonbo298 · 09-18-2005, 05:53 PM

Well, I dont vomit the liquids. Just if I ingest food...which at this point, after the "grape fiasco", I wont be doing til my stomach feels better

and as for the wild nights...Yeah...no vehicle

and friends live in town across river (about 10 miles or so away?) Plus...I dont really "look" the role of a "Wild Nighter"

About a year ago I had this really weird flu. My body rejected food except for one can of tomato soup, i could hardly move, no energy, hurt to swallow and breath. I literally felt like I was dying and possibly could have.

I bet that killed your week.

But this thing (That Jonbo has) sounds like it sort of really sucks...I've never had anything like that. I dont get major sicknesses, I just get colds a lot. How exactly can you get Gastroenteritis?

Well you see Typhoid, when a man loves a women, and that women has previously loved a toilet seat, bad things can happen.

Jonbo298 · 09-19-2005, 12:48 AM

I probably got it from going around at work (yay Call center and random cubicles) and not cleaning keyboard/mouse with wipe pads before using them.

It got worse today after 11am so I went to ER tonight around 7:30 central or so since my body wasnt even keeping liquids down anymore. Hooked me up to some IV's, let some Saline or whatever go in..some stuff to calm my stomach a little for now and something to help with Nausea. Needless to say, I got a nice small nap in with all that going through.

Now to wait to see what tomorrow has to behold to me when the temporary'ness of less pain (but still there) comes kicking me back in the ass again

When i was a sophomore in college I ate gatti's pizza and got sick as a dog. I had to go to the emergency room because I was bleeding from places that no man should bleed from. I was in pain for two weeks after that. Ever since then I've had this desire for blood vengence against Gatti's Pizza.
