This semester I decided to stay on campus instead of commute, like I did last year. I stayed with two friends and one random roomie. And they have ALL been sick since school started for me last Fall. Fun part? We all share one bathroom! (Yay! Not.)
I posted about this before, but the day after the random roomies moved in (this was in September last year) she caught FP and v* in the room we share together. (In a trash can, thankfully. But still in the room). Then a month later, one of my friends I live with got sick and v* too (but this was just from too much medication; some painkiller that messed with her stomach.) Then last week, my OTHER friend randomly got sick and started to v* too. (it only lasted an hour, she said, and then she was fine)
Then today, the rando roomie gets sick again! She's convinced it's FP again because she ate a chicken sandwich from this place on campus, and she said it tasted funny.(Plus she left the sandwich in her bag for like, and hour and a half). Then an hour later she starts to v* This kinda worries me tho because we both got chicken sandwiches from the same place, only I ate mine immediately after I got it. So far I feel fine and it's been about 3 1/2 hours.
So far I've just been really stressed out and anxious. Thank goodness for Lysol though. But now I'm really afraid I'm gonna catch a SV at some point. Or worse, since everyone else has been sick that it'll be "my turn" soon, so to speak. I know that's not exactly logical but that's how I feel.
How have you guys survived rooming with others in college or just in general? If I had known it would be this bad I would have continued commuting!
