I felt fine leaving work Thursday afternoon.
By the time I got home I had terrible stomach cramps, and had diarrhoea all evening. (Sorry! Blush)
Felt completely washed out and spent the day in bed Friday. (Not like me at all.)
I can eat now, have had no more diarrhoea since, but I still feel unwell (no-where near as bad as I did, mind you), but am now feeling hot here and there. My gut still feels a bit tender. I've been able to potter today, but have no energy and feel weak and watery iykwim.
(I am menopausal, but my hot flushes have died down a lot now.)
The original diarrhoea could have been a reaction to an anti-inflammatory but I haven't taken it since Thursday am in case it is.
I wouldn't even ask usually, but we are seriously stretched already at work, and my absence will mean colleagues will have an additional workload.
Do I call it now?
See how I feel in the morning?
What would you do?

See how you feel in the morning but if you still feel the same, then don't go to work.

If you are not 100% you could be more prone to catching another illness so I would be careful but can understand the guilt you feel. Hope you feel better in the morning ❤️
