5. i have hand sanitizer and when i wash my hands in the restroom i put soap on th water faucet handles
and rinse them off before i touch them again.. the faucet handles are touched by every guy first thing after touching their dick them the last thing they touch before they leave.. just washing you hands is like touching every guys dick that takes a leak since they started to work there... then i use the bottled hand sanitizer and keep my hands away from my face...

co- workers with kids are the worst source of disease.. children are just little sespools of disease.. it is said that if children were given the flu shots hardly anyone else would need them..

well candace is feeling better, i gave her one of my acid reflux pills.

17. they don't have the paddle faucet handles, jut plastic,, the dirtiest places in a restroom are the
faucet handles and the door handles.. the door handles because of the faucet handles, even the toilet seats and toilet water are cleaner than the faucet handles..

7. I've been on percocet after falling down the stairs
and have been having severe gas and cramps. Had a Shiatsu session yesterday and determined to get off the drug-- I felt the drug was causing the gastro stuff.

It's really delightful to try to get to the bathroom when you can hardly walk.

8. I had a bout with it a month or so ago.
Edited on Mon Sep-24-07 08:57 AM by davsand
Evil stuff. I was sitting on the toilet vomiting into a garbage bag for a few of hours. After that it was a couple of days of the runs, then it finally tapered off to lots of stomach cramps and some really nasty gas.

Hubby got it a couple of days after I did and he threw up a lot but never had the runs. He did have the nasty gas, however...

Sorry to hear your wife is feeling bad. Tell her that if she's got the same stuff we had, it will be better in a day or two, but she's gonna have stomach cramps and gas for about a week after.


Regards!



Laura

9. It seems to be going around here
My wife works with homehealth and several of her people and their friends have been getting the same thing you describe. She brings this stuff home, but, I'm lucky to have a very good immune system, while she's feeling miserable with whatever bug she's been passed at work I never get it.
She's due for her flu shot, but, I don't know if it would help with this.

11. Sounds like what my SO had about a month and a half ago
It was awful - he was sick for a week and in horrible pain. I'm sorry your wife is sick - I wouldn't wish that one on anyone.

14. I'm sick with something ...
tummy stuff and swimmy headed and sore throat. Feel like a truck ran over me. :( I don't know if it's really the same, though.

My birthday was yesterday and I couldn't eat any yummy things. x(

I hope your wife feels better soon. :grouphug:

16. Does this have anything to do with the Norwalk virus that turned
a couple of cruise ships into living hell a year or so back?
