Tummy bug or flu??

Hi all, just after opinions on what coudl have been wrong with me this weekend!
I'll start it by saying I have extreme emetophobia, so I know I'm being OTT. I'm currently having CBT and trauma therapy to help me with my phobia so please don't recommend so :)

On Saturday evening I started feeling like I was getting a cold. Sunday I felt progressively worse. Head ache, soar throat, nose sniffly but not bunged up. Started feeling tired and sick. Suddenlt off food... upset tummy and dry heaving that evening.
Monday - very emotional, off food, slight upset tummy. Headache, slight blocked nose but nothing to shout about.
Today - woke up with a terrible headache (probably dehydration!!) and blocked nose.

My two children have been at their dads for 2 days and are back home this afternoon.
I will be cleaning every inch of everywhere but I'm SO worried they are going to catch something off me. My tummy feels settled now but my nose is blocked! I've never been sick with a cold/flu/covid before.

Can anyone share any encouragement at all as to what is wrong with me and if my boys will be ok :(

It doesn’t sound like flu, flu has you bed bound. I was hallucinating from the fever it was so bad. But you’ve probably just had another bug. Give the house a good clean but try not to worry.
