Stomache Virus

[xanis]

Yesterday I left school early because I was feeling like utter crap. I got home around 11:00 AM and started vomiting about twice an hour, and didn't stop until 6:00 PM last night. I basically slept all day and forced down some flat, warm soda when I could finally hold some down. Wound up sleeping on my couch until 1:00 AM or so because I was pretty naseaus and dizzy. I woke up this morning feeling pretty good, so I decided I would try a small cup of Gatorade to try and get a little rehydrated. Drank it about an hour ago and I'm not feeling too great. I still haven't been able to keep any food down.

My question is, do you think I should go to school for a half day (I already missed some of school) and atend my hardest classes, or give myself another day to recover? I'm leaving for a 10-day trip to Spain this Friday, so I'm inclined to stay home and make sure that I'm healthy before my trip. What do you think?

Is that "screw it" as in, "Screw it, don't go to school" or "Screw it, go to school"?

If you're sick, you're not going to learn anything anyway.

Stay home.

Teachers won't want you getting the other kids sick either.

Those were my other thoughts. I have tomorrow and Friday to catch up anyhow.

stay at home

Stay home and get well for your trip. And that way you won't contaminate the school with your sickly germs.

I always go to school even when I am very sick, you cant get rid of it till you give it to someone you dislike:evil:

lol I remember going to my little sister's elementary school graduation a few years back and they were giving out prizes...one of them went to a kid with a perfect attendance record...I clearly remember the lady behind me saying "EWWWW he probably even came to school when he was sick!"

Haha... I almost never miss any school because I just suck it up and go, but on occasion I get sick...

stay home and dont infect others

Stay home... if you go in you'll infect others & plus you are going to run out of gas quickly today & will crash.

Sounds like a perfect excuse to stay home. Don't waste it.

I know it's such a sacrifice, but think I'm going to say home.

no, i am a doctor, a brain and stomach and virus doctor and i did a FULL exam via the internets and he is fine to go to school

DO NOT go to school and infect everyone else.
That is one of my biggest pet peeves... stay home, get better, don't spread your germs.

Stay home. You're weak and dehydrated. Even if you're not infectious and no longer barfing/pooping uncontrollably, you still need to rest and get your strength back. You don't want to go on a 10 day trip feeling like crap.

Watered down gatorade + saltines FTW

I'd stay home and sleep and game it up. Fvck school.
