Yup, unfortunately it happened. I was in linear algebra on Wednesday when my stomach felt queasy and my foresight told me to feel unlucky. I threw up in the public bathroom, on the walk home, and in my own bathroom. I slept the rest of the day, waking only to drink water and to massage my sore joints. Thankfully a friend bought me Gatorade-like drinks and pita bread from Tesco since I felt like I could barely move.
However, by Thursday morning, I felt much better, even though I was incredibly weak. I continued the liquid regimen and slept away most of the day, without any of the vomiting this time. I had booked a trip to Edinburgh for the weekend but decided to skip it given my recovering health.
A couple friends had also contracted stomach virus earlier in the week. We thought it had to do with going to Paris last weekend, but apparently it's a British trend. The doctor who one of my friends saw said that she's seen a lot of similar cases lately and contracted a stomach virus herself. Unfortunately for my friend, he got a shot in the rear to take care of it.
Anyway, I'm glad to have the weekend to rest. NYU's taking us on a Bath/Stonehenge trip on Sunday, but I'm taking it easy until then.
