I need a hug

I'd been looking forward to this weekend; Best Friend and I were going to spend some quality time together in the Veluwe*, enjoying each other's company, good food and long woodland hikes. But last night when I came home, I fell suddenly and violently ill. I hardly slept a wink last night, and although I feel a little better now, I'm far from recovered. I have a constant sharp pain in my gut, and it's all I can do to stand up straight. Every move I make, every step I take is an agony, and I have no appetite whatsoever, even though I haven't eaten since yesterday noon, when I had the omelet that I strongly suspect brought me to this sorry state.

Just my luck, to fall ill on the one weekend I had plans for.


* The Veluwe: an area of outstanding natural beauty in the east of the country.

I promise, if by the end of today I still feel this shitty, I will seek medical attention tomorrow. For now, I'm going on the assumption that I'm suffering from an uncommonly bad case of indigestion...although it is a bit strange that my stomach seems to be free of pain while the right side of my intestine is screaming with it...but hey-ho! I'm sure it's nothing like as bad as you had.

Beterschap, btw.

Thanks. I hate being ill. I'm like a bear with a sore head, or in this case, sore tummy.

Oh poor you! Hope you are alreadt beginning to feel better? You have had your appendix removed haven't you? Just sudden onset, right sided pain that cripples you up can be appendicitis.

Don't say that! You're making me nervous...esp. since I still have all my internal organs intact, thank you very much.

Seconding all the "go to the doctor" screams (certainly tomorrow) and gentle non-tummy touching hugs...

Go to hospital emergency if the pain doesn't ease up SOON. Appendix pain isn't necesssarily in the appendix region - you get referred pain - but if you press the spot roughly midway on a line drawn between your navel right hipbone and it hurts like hell - go get help.

OTOH - it may well be a gastric virus, but better safe than sorry

Thanks. The worst does seem to have passed, so I'm going with my previous self-diagnosis: bad case of indigestion (thank G-d).

Don't be, it was a false alarm. But thanks for caring!
