Flu bug hit me Sunday evening, struggling to keep my composure as my path is bathroom, shower and then back to bed. This sucks, but would be much worst without a case of bottled electrolytes and running water.

This. I planted a couple of elderberry bushes just so I could make extract. I don't get sick often, but I give the juice to family and friends who do. It helps. Sorry you are feeling like crap

With frequent trips to the bathroom, it isn't the flu. Sounds more like food poisoning like Norovirus.
Best defense against norovirus or the actual flue is sanitation. Washing hands, do not cross contaminate when preparing foods, wash your hands, cook your food until it is well done, wash your hands, etc. Once you have it, stay hydrated. Nothing else you can really do. Immodium is recomended for diarrhea. |

Your mother was a hamster & your father stinks of elderberries Sorry, I couldn't resist.

| My system finally calmed down after eight hours of horror - now the process of re-hydration continues. Might not have been flu, could have been bacteria from questionable water as I was cleaning the fish tank shortly before everything went wrong. Still not 100%. Either way I have definitely learned just how fast bacteria can disable you. |

Man, you gotta be careful with that fish tank water!
