Think I Ran Into the Dreaded 'Aussie' Norovirus

I will probably never eat fries or chocolate again. Picked up some stuff from the store last night because my kids have been dealing with it. I stop and treat myself to some large fries at mcdonalds, followed by some nestle crunch bars.

About 4:30, I knew what time it was. Got the bubble guts, the dizzy feeling, slight headache, almost numbness in my hands and feet. I blew about 5 lbs of vomit out and now I'm writhing in pain on my couch. Feet keep crampin up. Feel weak and haven't slept but about 30 minutes the whole night. Can't stand listening to anyone talk, TV included...

Man, my younger kids made it look so easy.

I consider myself a tough guy physically, but this is my first stomach bug in about 7 years and they turn me into a f'ing baby everytime.

And to top it off, my oldest one that is in school, she's out for spring break this week. AWESOME. We didn't even do anything for Easter yesterday b/c they were still dealing with it.

You are welcome.

Yeah man, the whole family went for my youngest's well-baby checkup... It's horrible. I don't know if it was that, or my wife got sick a week or so ago, and she works in healthcare... She also usually prepares the meals. It's horrible.

A couple hours ago, I wasn't even able to hold my hands up to type on my phone or cpu.

It sucks. And kids definitely do take it better than adults. My son blew chunks and was like "what are we doing next? I want a milkshake!" LOL. I on the other hand, felt like it would've been easier to go lock myself in my garage with the car running than that feeling right before you upchuck.

I got that over the Giants-Pats round 1 Super Bowll. A friend of my brothers came over to hang out after getting over what he said was a stomach virus, and the SB was the next day, made it through the game and was sick as a dog after that. I still to this day cannot look at buffalo wings without feeling sick.

I'd rather have the flu then that again.

Dude.... I had it about 3-4 years ago, my first time experiencing it. I was shitting my guts out while leaning over puking in the tub. My kids were crying hysterically not knowing what the fug was going on with me. Was so dehydrated my vision began to blur. Buddy made a make shift IV to get fluids back into me. Hope you get over it soon. poo is brutal.

Years ago I got one after eating those honey mustard pretzel nuggets and 3 salami and mustard sandwiches

I've eaten salami and or mustard since, but never alone together and I'm probably never going to touch those fuging pretzel nuggets again

Yeah, I will have a hard time eating any chocolate or fries for awhile, but that's good for me... I needed to start eating better, now I have an immediate reason.

Last time I'll never forget, it was even worse... I had thought I went long enough without getting whatever my wife and daughter had, so I thought I was safe. I decided to have a nice appetizer of salsa and chips... A LOT OF THEM. It was too late... I ended up doing like CoW... My wife woke up to me in the fetal position, in just my boxers, rolling back and forth on the floor in front of the bathroom.

I finally made it to the bathroom after she fell back asleep, only to wake her up to me rolling off the toilet to throw up in my tub once I smelled myself splattering the bowl, lol. One of the most humbling experiences of my life. Now that was love.

Wow, I had the same stuff right before I went to the Dominican.

I was at BDubs and was trying to choke down a beer, normally not an issue with me at all....

Couldn't get it down, had to get up from the table twice to go blow up the toilet. Paid my tab quickly, and didn't get to my car before I threw up all over the parking lot.

Made it home and threw up and had the runs all night long. Seriously like every 3-4 minutes, all night.

Couldn't drink water or eat for three days. Didn't have enough energy to get off the couch or listen to the TV. Literally laid on the couch with my eyes shut praying to not have to throw up or poo everywhere.

It was by far the worst I have ever felt in my entire life.

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
    • Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
    • If hypothetically, Ickey comes fully healthy, would he be willing to give up left tackle money for left guard money? In the Panthers case, moving Ickey LG or RT would be in our best interest and as it gives us our best starting offensive lineman combination. However, Im sure there's another team that would be desperate and willing to dish out top dollars for Ickey to have him come play left tackle for them. In that case, Ickey would just leave for that team instead.
