Ben's barf for barfblog
Posted: November 28th, 2007 - 10:02am by Ben Chapman
Well I don't actually have a picture of it, but for the past 21 hours or so I've been stricken with something nasty. Maybe it is norovirus, sure seems like it might be.Here's what's been happening to me:
- Trips to the bathroom for vomiting = 2
- Trips to the bathroom for diarrhea = 6
- Stomach cramps = lots
Every time I drink something (which I have limited to water) I get some wicked cramps.
Haven't eaten anything since lunch yesterday.I really was hoping to get a picture to make the blog authentic, but a camera was the last thing I was thinking of. I promised Doug I'd snap a pic of my next trip to the bathroom.
Ironically this week's infosheet is all about norovirus, you can find it here.
