What is making me so ill?

I came down with something this afternoon and I feel so terrible i can't even sleep. My head is pounding and every inch of body is so painful. I have been shivering uncontrollably since lunchtime (currently have 2 dressing gowns on and laying in bed under a few blankets and I still can't stop shivering). My bowels are making horrendous noises and cramping.

I've had cold and flu tablets but they don't seem to help. I'm praying DC don't wake as I have no idea how I could look after them. I need the loo but can't even muster the energy to get up.

What is this and what can I do to feel better in the morning?

Thank you! I have emetophobia as well so the stomach cramps are giving me serious middle-of-the-night anxiety. I just want to burst into tears.

I have managed to get downstairs and get more cold and flu medication. Hopefully it helps me get back to sleep.
