We've got a BAD bug - the ER doc said it's most certainly noro. It's lasting about a week from first sickness to 100% better. My four year old has been the worst, he's been v* on and off since...

I think it was the massive life changes I made that allowed me to overcome this phobia. I was in a miserable marriage, an at home mom who was more or less suck in the life I had - I had no control...

Wow, bizarre to be back here after so many years! I was a fairly active member of these board around 2006-2007 if I remember correctly. This week I've felt compelled to come back and share my...

I'll PM you! smileys/smilies_01.gif

Not in GA, but in TN!

Hello everyone! I used to frequent this site several times a
day.....not so often anymore though. smileys/smilies_01.gifFor several reasons.....I'm
beginning
to cope better with illness when...

Well said Gubba!

I have to comment on the embarassment factor as well. I knew that
I was ready to start to fix this on the day I realized that I just wasn't
embarassed to talk about it - I...

*coming out of hiding to reply to this post*

Gubba, I hope you don't mind my saying this (I'm sure you won't
*wink*). I came on the site just now for the first time in months as
well, just...

Since January I've tried Celexa and Lexapro, and took both only very
briefly because of the severe side effects I had. But I'm very sensitive
to any meds, even OTC, so I wasn't surprised. I...

Hey - I'm from Nashville and talk on the phone with someone else here,
also from Nashville. I'll let her reveal herself if she wants too. smileys/smilies_02.gifWe
plan to meet in person next...

Smokycat, I'm in tennessee too! I'm in the Nashville area, there is
another poster on here from very near me. We're planning on getting
together in the next few months - if you're close enough...

Do you thing your sv recently cured you of your emet???? It you
actaully WANT to v* it sounds like you may be! If that's what it takes to
cure this then I need a sv too (just kidding of course)...

My hubby takes it for GERD and it works wonderfully! He had is really
bad, he would v* stomach acid anywhere from 5-10 times a day. Now
it's only once or twice a week.

Another thing that distinguishes rotovirus from a regular sv is TMI TMI
TMI the scent of the d*. It is the most foul smelling poop you'll ever
experience - it really smells like death, and you...

My daughter is 2 1/2 and v* every time she has a hint of a stuffy/runny
nose. The drainage gags her every time.

A sv can sometimes cause temporary lactose intolerance. But that
usually presents itself with extra d*. Maybe it's some form of
intolerance though, that's causing him to taste more of the...

I was talking to another emet on the phone this morning (if you read
this HI hon!) and we both have kids. She has one, I have two girls,
ages 27 months and 12 months.I can understand you all who...

My hubby had fp on Christmas Eve and day this past year. He had
steak and mushroom fajitas from a resturant around 7 pm. His
stomach started hurting around 10 pm, the d* started around 1 am, ...

Relax hon! You're pregnant, and you know by now that pregnancy
does some strange things to our bodies. The n* can be explained
simply by being pregnant, especially because you're getting close...

D* doesn't bother me either. Odd, huh? But I have, on occasion, taken
immodium as a "just in case" thing. Two weeks ago my youngest
daughter was having some stressful medical testing done, and...

Well said Gubba! I'm loving the weather too! Today the girls and I
were outside for about 4 hours total, taking a long walk and just sitting
outside in the sun. Every day when we walk I can...

I've been reading this thread for the last little bit, and I guess I can
see both sides. I agree that it's just not practical to stay home for
EVERY illness that strikes. For example, if I kept...

Oh my goodness, you poor thing! No wonder you feel lousy - you've
been through a week of hell! Accident and illness aside, the last two
months of pregnancy are HARD on you, both physically and...

I'm feeling surprisingly upbeat today. I'm just in a really great
mood, no worries - this is the first time in as long as I can remember
that my emet hasn't bothered me all day! And that shocks...

Grossness coming up, but could you smell anything? I would guess
that in order for it to be in the air enough for it to be transmitted to
you you'd at least be able to smell it.

That said,...
