I've not heard that before. Does it go like this?

It's a virus - vitamins and antibiotics are no use at all.

Surely having a strong immune response - beefed up by higher levels of vit C, B and zinc - would help you fight off any effects from the virus, deal with symptoms etc?

This is a thread I really should not have read.

Well, I seem fine now, for the moment... my tummy rumblings must have been from lunch.

I'm glad I didn't get it then, I never did learn the art of pain-free vomiting. It usually hurts like hell.

Me too. I often burst blood vessels in my eyes.

[TimberWolf]

Didnt hurt at all, came out of me like the women in Little Britian didnt have time to react, felt much better after.

Ooh! Ooh! CODSABS! I learned CODSABS in A Level Chemistry! Identification of substances.

For all future vomit we need:

Colour
Odour
Density (did it sink? float?)
Solubility (did it dissolve?)
Acidity (how much did it burn coming up)
Burns (tricky. Do you think it might ignite? Unlikely for vomit but useful if you tulip yourself at the same time)
Supports combustion (would it be wise / unwise to try to hide the smell with a candle)

For colour a rough description will do, we don't really need Pantone codes.

Have I missed anything? E.g. recognisable vegetables? Consistency? Distance and height of projectile?

Ok, first major puke was as follows,

Colour
Orangey / cream with red bits in, I could make out the chicken tikka rap I had earlier in the evening the red bits were the peppers.

Odour
Acidy, and tikka

Density (did it sink? float?)
Pretty thick due to the bannana I consumed earlier in evening, it sank when I put down the loo

Solubility (did it dissolve?)
No

Acidity (how much did it burn coming up)
Didnt hurt at all, came out of me like the women in Little Britian didnt have time to react, felt much better after.

Burns (tricky. Do you think it might ignite? Unlikely for vomit but useful if you tulip yourself at the same time)
Didnt test

Supports combustion (would it be wise / unwise to try to hide the smell with a candle)
Didnt test

Do keep us informed of the details of any future pukes please.

How come some people get it and not others? Have any of you sufferers had this kind of thing before (virus induced projectile vomiting, not from poisoning, etc)?

Hmm... I'm beginning to feel ill, have a weird feeling in my stomach and feel a bit lightheaded. I do hope I haven't got this, I've been taking vitamins to help my immune system fight anything off. I don't want to see them on the way out.

It's a virus - vitamins and antibiotics are no use at all.

Sit down, be miserable, keep drinking water (preferably with some sugar in it in some form), wait 48 hours and you'll be fine.

Client let me work from home, feel ill but not too bad but just cant keep anything I eat down, even puked up a cup of tea earlier may be the milk seem ok on water, at least I might shed the xmas weight. GF puked up at work this morning so she has it as well now and has come home. Try to figure out who we caught it from now.

Do keep us informed of the details of any future pukes please.
