Rumbling and Grumbling

That is my stomach at this moment.
Is it a virus? Other people I work with have been out of work with stomach problems. I know some people like the descriptives left out, and so I will not go any further. I will just say "upset stomach".
Is it something I ate? It could be. We ate after hubby had his radiology consult. My dish had a rich sauce. I became ill afterwards. Except I already had a headache, so I may have been coming down with it.
Either way, I have called in sick tomorrow. I would be uncomfortable working, and I would be really upset if I was contagious and made others sick.
I had other things I was planning to post but my head hurts too much, so I will crawl into a nice warm bed. Maybe I will feel well enough to visit here tomorrow.

I have been okay by eating very lightly.

I think if your stomach is upset, it might have been due to food poisoning. It would be better to consult a Doctor, if preliminary first aid does not work for you.

Because my coworkers have missed some work days with similar symptoms, and I work around children who are sent to school even when sick, I am more inclined to believe it is a virus. I have sipped ginger tea and will only eat very lightly. I feel better today but not completely well.

I am eating very lightly and taking it easy today. Not great, but not living in the bathroom either.

I hope you feel better soon. If it sticks around I hope you see your doctor. It might have been food poisoning.... or any other thing. I don't like it when I get sick so I know how you feel.

I know, if I am not better quickly I will see the doctor. I doubt it is food poisoning, although it may be a food sensitivity. My sister would look at me and say "it is your gall bladder" but I do not think that is the problem.

I am looking forward to some extra hours of sleep and very easy food and ginger tea to calm the cramping.
