What the hell was that? (disgusting d&v)

Earlier was sitting on the sofa innocently watching TV when all of a sudden I felt sick - started rushing to toilet only to violently projectile vomit AND at the same time what felt like a bucket load of diarrhoea flooded out of me and down my legs. The vomiting was so forceful some of it even came out of my nose and we won't even dwell on the fate of my knickers

Took ages to clear up, shower etc. and now I just have stomach cramps feel shivery as if slightly shocked. Tucked up back on the sofa with a bucket and a huge folded up towel underneath me just in case.

I have some kind of bug which may well be covid but surely that wasn't a symptom of that?

Any idea what could come on so suddenly and violently?

Could be norovirus. That can start suddenly and can be bad. Hope you feel better soon.

A virus not uncommon but no fun.

Hope you feel better soon. Puppy training pads are good seat covers

Norovirus can make you feel generally unwell, headaches, weakness, fever, so possibly that. I hope you improve soon. Try to keep hydrated.

I had the same experience with Norovirus. Came on suddenly...both ends. Unfortunately my head was down the loo when the other end fired....

FloofPaws · 04/10/2024 20:06

Likely norovirus as its violent like that - I recall being happy my loo was next to the bath when I had it .... grim!
Small sips of water and rest
Good luck

Could it be something you have eaten?I always thought that noro was a time of pretty much non-stop action 😔

Norovirus can come on that quickly - both ends at the same time, and violently.

"People infected with norovirus are contagious from the moment they begin feeling ill to at least 3 days after recovery. Some people may be contagious for as long as 2 weeks after recovery. Therefore, good hand washing is important."

Have you got rehydration sachets in the house?
