What in the fresh hell is this ?

[TinaTwinkleToes]

Ffs. Had loose ish bowels last week but was on period. On Wednesday this week had 3 episodes of explosive diarrhoea. Last night I was up 2 times with pale sweet diarrhoea today I feel crap. Eyes and nose running. Headaches. More loose bowels its like I know I need to poo but I'm sitting there for ages until it explodes !! Wtf

Covid

Oh please God no!

Pale, sweet diarrhoea? Ew, did you have a nibble?

First time I had Covid I had explosive diarrhoea, dreadful abdominal pain, unbearable headache & runny nose. Get a test from Amazon.

Sweet is the smell soft arse.

When i did have periods diarrhea was 1 thing I got all the time

I had this with recent COVID, was awful. I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks were you up in the night ? Got central abdominal pain and feel tired too !

Stomach bug obvs. Take some immodium

Yep, the pain was awful. The pain only lasted a few days though, if you can get a COVID test id check but obvs see your GP if it continues as it could be something else.

I was in a hotel in Spain. I covered all the towels & a lot of the bathroom floor with ghastly stuff from my gut. It was as bad as when I had campylobacter when I lay on the bathroom floor writhing around. The headache & runny nose are also clues. Amazon sells Covid self tests. Mine only lasted a few days & then I tested negative. Keep well hydrated & take analgesics for the headache. If you test negative for Covid, see your GP & don’t be fobbed off with seeing a paramedic or nurse. #AskForADoctor (BTW I am a retired hospital consultant doctor.)

Sounds like Norovirus or Rotavirus. Rota in particular has a very distinctive sweet smell.

Sounds like COVID. Imodium didn't do anything for it..lasted about 5or 6 days.

Very weird bug how it just picks a part of the body to give a kicking.

Is there not yet a new version of 'fresh hell'? Sorry to derail.

The headache & runny nose don’t suggest these viruses.

My eyes burn. I've sent for covid tests off amazon.

Well done.

Immodiaum is really bad for you. You get diarrhea for a reason and you need it to run its course.

Could be an adenovirus as they affect eyes and stomach

This simply isn't true.

The advice is often to let it run its course for a day or two but Imodium is fine for adults who don't have IBS, heart or liver problems.

Erm thank you ?

Not in the slightest bit true!

This is just nonsense.

Oh I thought it was nice! She was being encouraging…

I can't believe people are still taking Covid tests 😂

@TinaTwinkleToes you don't need a Covid test, you clearly know you are ill. Stay home, keep hydrated, and rest up.

It's clearly some kind of infection. You just need to ride it out.
