After some pronounced unpleasantness[1], I returned to work on Monday. I didn't last long, however, and shortly after lunch returned home.
I spent the night on Monday in the bathroom every 20 minutes or so. I won't get graphic...but it was very graphic (above and beyond, actually, but I'll spare you).
I'm back at work now, but my stomach is like a pot of boiling stew. Every time I move it gurgles and churns. I really need to let some gas out, but I'm afraid it won't come alone. It's lousy.
The weird thing about this illness is that it never really knocked me out. At no point was I delerious or feverish (oddly, even at 4am after waking up every few minutes I still felt pretty aware of things). It's clearly just a stomach ailment, because I haven't had any of the other usual symptoms of illness (fever, achiness, dry mouth, etc).
I guess that's something to be thankful for.
