Lucky me - stomach flu AGAIN

I had some weird symptoms and it turns out I had a temp of 101 when I went to the doc today for a check up on the leg issue. I mentioned my symptoms and he was quick to say stomach flu; he'd had it twice himself. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. This is what I get for hanging around people instead of staying in my rabbit hole.
Now every joint hurts, I feel like I'm freezing and am sick to my stomach and feel worse than I did in the middle of the night. I think it will pass quickly, but boy, I didn't need this again. Thankfully everything is done and if it ain't done, it will have to wait until after Christmas.
Merry Christmas, all ye infected ones!

I have some nasty infection too, which has got a little better since this morning but still very unpleasant -- it feels suspiciously like the start of the swine flu I had last year.
Feel better, PnP!
