Thracian Posted 17 January 2008 Posted 17 January 2008 Anyone know if there's a bug going around. My lads gone down with this and presume its gastroenteritis although we can't decide if it's been caused by a virus or by food poisoning, perhaps from work. He's feeling grim, particularly from the stomach cramps. He's drinking clear liquids. There's no blood in anything. Anyone got any advice?

Surprised you ain't heard about it, It's everywhere at the moment. Quite a few people I know have had it, luckily so far i've escaped. Been going around well before Christmas. I'd just suggest drink fluids and they also advise you to not go out for 48 hours after the bug has passed so i've heard.
Alexikokopops Posted 17 January 2008 Posted 17 January 2008 Quite the big thing at the moment. We've got posters all around our Uni and stuff about it http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7169347.stm
AoWW Posted 17 January 2008 Posted 17 January 2008 Half my class were off today. I've got that grim 'only a matter of time till I get it' feeling.
Thracian Posted 17 January 2008 Author Posted 17 January 2008 Thanks everyone. Whoever dreamed this shit up has got one miserable sense of humour.
Monk Posted 17 January 2008 Posted 17 January 2008 Thanks everyone. Whoever dreamed this shit up has got one miserable sense of humour. pun intended?
Fez of Mahrez Posted 17 January 2008 Posted 17 January 2008 Thanks everyone. Whoever dreamed this shit up has got one miserable sense of humour. On that note... I think Diarrhea is a good signing for Portsmouth but I'm not so sure about Sickness.

I reckon if scientists took samples from teachers they probably find they've become resistant to almost everything and could figure out antidotes galore.

I put it down to teachers generally being intoxicated. Any self-respecting bug that knew what was good for itself would give up and go elsewhere to find its victim.

James. Posted 18 January 2008 Posted 18 January 2008 Did anyone else used to sing those diarrhea songs when they were kids? I went up to the attic and it came down automatic, dairrhea, diarrhea...
Durnerz Posted 18 January 2008 Posted 18 January 2008 Did anyone else used to sing those diarrhea songs when they were kids?I went up to the attic and it came down automatic, dairrhea, diarrhea... Tee hee, that brings back memories, i'm sure Thracians son wouldn't appreciate that kind of melody at this point though.
Alexikokopops Posted 18 January 2008 Posted 18 January 2008 Did anyone else used to sing those diarrhea songs when they were kids?I went up to the attic and it came down automatic, dairrhea, diarrhea... Hahaha yes! Remind me of more!
Durnerz Posted 18 January 2008 Posted 18 January 2008 Hahaha yes!Remind me of more! There you go mr Ormonpops
The Reverend Posted 18 January 2008 Posted 18 January 2008 Diarrhea, diarrhea, sticks to you're bum like pink chewing gum, diarrhea, diarrhea.
Staf Posted 18 January 2008 Posted 18 January 2008 I had this bug last week so bad i missed the Cov game
Jay Posted 19 January 2008 Posted 19 January 2008 I had it last week lasted about 48hrs but those 48hrs where spent in hell and resulted in me missing the best performance at the Walkers for many a year!!
Daggers Posted 19 January 2008 Posted 19 January 2008 I still reckon you are all just being a bunch of blouses. Once upon a time people caught colds during winter...now everyone has chronic pneumonia and won't be happy until they've found a way to upgrade it to minor death and lay the blame at the foot of someone with money.
