I left work early yesterday with an upset stomach. I woke up not feeling well, but figured I’d be fine by the time I got to work. All morning my stomach churned and caused me discomfort. By lunch, things were no different. Lyle and I went to Jack in the Box for lunch, and I got an Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich. I didn’t want anything heavy like a cheeseburger on my upset stomach. It turns out I only rented lunch, because by the time I got back to the office, lunch came up, and my stomach was getting worse.
I left the office at 3:00pm. On the way home, I stopped at the store and picked up some Pepto. I also had to get bird seed, so I stopped at the pet store, too.
I took some Pepto and crawled into bed. About every 30 to 60 minutes I took some more Pepto, and by 7pm or so, my stomach was much quieter. I had a light dinner of baked chicken, corn, and mashed potatos. It stayed down, eventhough my stomach started grumbling again.
Apparently, there is a stomach bug going around at work… and I guess I was the latest victim. It’s no fun being sick, but thankfully it’s only supposed to last a day.
