Re: I think I may have caught it, any advice please?
Hi Sarah
Although your BF should get a new toothbrush (it's just wise to get a new one after any sickness) you have nothing to worry about. You are not sick, you're scared and anxious.
I've relayed this story before on IES so my apologies if I've told you previously. I had a nasty SV about 7 years ago where my stomach was iffy and felt vaguely yucky most of the day. I'd gone to bed and woke up feeling really strange about an hour later. I went to the bathroom and it was full blown water D. Within 10 or 15 minutes I'd had D several more times and had horrible legit N. It was awful and there was no question that I had SV. Somehow with sheer willpower I managed to not V, although it was a constant struggle to hold it off for about 6 hours straight with no break (thank you God
)
Anyhow my point is that other than feeling yucky, there was no gradual build up. It hit fast and it hit hard. From my understanding that's typically how it works so if you have been Ok for the past few hours, you're going to be fine.
Glad your BF is on the mend.
