Is there anything more bothersome, more indefatigable, more unpleasant on a “visceral” level both literally and figuratively, than trouble with the GI tract?
My baby had a bug last week, then the wife and her dad, my turn started last night at 7:30… OMG! I sprayed a little Lysol to kill a bug. And I thought it was the smell of it that was getting to me? So I said, I’m going to bed (at like 7:00) I laid back there writhing. Got up and went to the bathroom and “tried” to throw up. I.e., assume the position and hope for the best? Because that will make you feel better if your stomach is on the fritz.
Nope, back to bed and suffering, then at 7:30, there she blows (projectile). Made it to the bathroom. Then it was time to swap positions and basically do the same thing out the other end… This went on until 4:30 this morning. Every hour or two with no sleep.
Toward the end, there’s nothing to bring up. That’s the worst, the dry heaves… Because your whole body tenses up and spasms and holds it because there’s nothing there to bring. God!! It was miserable!! 10:00 now and all not well, but things are staying where they’re supposed to. The good news, if there is any, is that this is a 24 hour bug.
Now back to your potatoes and gravy :-) Hey, what’s for lunch?
