I’ve had this, you are sitting on the toilet with diarrhea while puking in the trash bin screaming “help me” it’s absolutely awful. In between breaks you feel like every rib is broken. Once you feel like you’re done, it starts all over again. The worst.

Yeah I had this back in 2009. I literally slept on the bathroom floor for 4 days so on top of all of that imagine the worst muscle and joint pain ever. I didn't have the energy to make it back to bed but even if I had, I wouldn't have been able to run into the bathroom fast enough to avoid leaving a trail of diarrhea in my wake. I was 100% ready to die. It would have been a relief. Thankfully I was introduced to a miracle supplement and I haven't had so much as a sniffle since then. I used to get sick every year. I never even got COVID.

The worst I ever had it back in 2015 (picked it up during a medic assist call where the patient had it), it was coming out of every opening! And I do mean _every_ opening-I was actually puking out my _nose_ too! I know, way too graphic, but that is something that has never happened to me before or since! I was flat on my back for three days after the vomiting subsided, and running at half-power for another ten days after all the nasty symptoms started. I’ve already had a serious hatred of norovirus because I was _always_ the one to catch it when my kids brought it home from school, but this little episode took my norophobia to the next level!

Lucky for me, I usually just have nausea when I get it, which is about every other year or so when it goes thru our building. I feel awful, I throw up a few times, but then it’s over in 12-24 hours….except for that year I got it from my niece, who had just started preschool. It hit me suddenly, like a freight train, and I spent the night in the bathroom, praying for death. The next day I spent exhausted in bed during a vicious nor’easter which just about ripped our roof off…we were on the water and probably should have evacuated, it was that bad, but I was so sick I just didn’t care.

The virus particles are also airborne, and it takes a surprisingly small number to infect you. So if you’re taking care of a sick kid and throwing their pukey sheets in the washing machine or whatever other cleanup you’re doing, you might as well start the countdown clock because within 48 hours you’re next! I’ll never forget the time my older daughter got this bug and two days later both me AND her little sister came down with it! Thank the gods we gave two bathrooms upstairs in our house! And I’ll never forgive my husband for escaping the carnage-a house full of sickies, and he didn’t catch it! 🤬🤬🤬

I worked at a daycare and at least once a month or every couple months we’d have a small outbreak. Even with disinfecting. Worst part is it would happen when we’d have a pot luck for the staff almost every time so if you got it, it’s worse because you just ate a lot of food before getting sick. It’s worse when you’ve literally thrown up everything you ate and you’re just gagging cause it HURTS

It's in the news every year. They have outbreak at schools, churches, etc. every year. Most people have had it, but they just didn't know it had a name. Had it as a kid when it swept thru school. Had it again in college. We had one Thanksgiving where one family brought it in, then everybody got it. It's not usually deadly at all except for those with an underlying issue where their body is already run down or those that get dehydrated. Then you go to the ER and they give you IV fluids.

Silly comment! If the government really wanted you dead than you’d be dead. There’s so many ways to go about it, it’s not even funny. The food that you eat is already sorayed with so many pesticides and chemicals.

So it's a virus that keeps you in the bathroom for a few days? Sounds like lunch at Taco Bell.

Literally everything is happening the same as 4 years ago, Cheifs win superbowl vs 49ers. Now a virus again. This isn't good.

Norovirus outbreaks happen every year in the wintertime. It’s known as the stomach flu but that’s misleading because it spreads mostly through surfaces and food. That’s why you always wash your hands after using the bathroom, before eating, before touching your face, and know that hand sanitizer doesn’t work. Those infected are still contagious up to 3 weeks after especially if they don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom or don’t properly clean after being sick.

My parents and I had it over the summer. My dad had it first and he had it really bad; puking several times a day, half the time dry heaving. My mom got it the next day her symptoms weren’t as bad but still bad enough. I puked twice and had some body aches, my parents had body aches as well. I think the only reason I puked twice was because I started isolating myself away from my parents as soon as my dad started getting sick and I don’t sleep in the same room as my parents

I was hospitalized with it and it was THE WORST ILLNESS I'VE EVER had! I had to actually call an ambulance I was so sick! I was in the hospital for SIX DAYS, and wasn't sure if I would LIVE, and when I was released the doctor said the same! 😮😮😮😮😮😮
