You are the first person that I ever heard who had the flu and then
chooses not to get vaccinated against it in the future. Every person
that I know who had the flu is first in line to get the flu shot.
Every person I know who had the flu wants to eliminate all
possibilities of getting it in the future and the vaccine is the best
way to achieve that goal even though flu vaccine is not completely
protective.

Of course there are those who *think* that they had the flu when they
really had a bad cold. It is very likely that this is the case with
Anth.

I agree with the other Rich, Anth. But even if you had influenza, recovering
from it is not a major accomplishment; millions do it every year. That is
what your immune system if for. If you get vaccinated, you are just giving
your immune system some valuable military intelligence about what enemy is
massing for attack and what its weaknesses are. The immune system can fight
off the flu from scratch, but it takes awhile for it to develop its own
military intelligence, and in the meantime, you'll fell pretty sick. If you
prefer doing it that way, it's your choice, but I'll go with the vaccine.

Anth is simply lying. He'll probably post that he had CAD, but cured it with
Vitamin C.

I predict that Anth is either going to tell us that he had the classic
flu symptoms (after doing some research on the internet) and describe
these classic symptoms *or* tell us that he was tested positive for
the virus.

I make this prediction because Anth is much more interested in falsely
creating a belief that he is credible than he is in the truth.

Stomach Flu This information is about stomach flu. You'll learn what it is,
what its symptoms are, and how to deal with it.

Stomach flu is often called "intestinal flu." It's an illness caused by a
virus, and it can produce different symptoms in different people. Some people
develop a sore throat, cough, and nasal congestion similar to a common cold.
This may be what's called "upper respiratory flu."

What people call stomach flu is usually marked by nausea and vomiting,
diarrhea, weakness, and a general sick feeling.

Here's how to treat stomach flu. First, you need to understand that antibiotics
such as penicillin don't work on flu because they kill only bacteria. The flu
is caused by a virus. Your body's defenses do the best job in fighting the
illness themselves.

You can help your body fight flu by getting as much rest as possible. Do light
activities if you have to, but rest as soon as you get tired. Stay home from
work, unless your symptoms are mild. You'll recover faster that way, and you
won't risk infecting others at work.

You should also drink adequate fluids to avoid dehydration -- but that will
take some care when your symptoms are nausea and diarrhea. So let's cover what
you can do to relieve these symptoms.

When your stomach is upset, the last thing it needs is food. If you feel
nauseated, give your stomach a rest. Don't eat or drink anything for about two
hours. If you are vomiting, don't eat or drink anything for four hours. Then
begin taking small sips of water and gradually work up to small amounts -- half
a cup or less -- of Seven-Up, ginger ale, or Jell-O. Do this for four to eight
hours. If you feel like it, try eating saltine crackers or dry toast. Don't
start to eat other solid foods for at least 24 hours. Doing this could make you
nauseated again.

You can also try taking the anti-nausea drug called Dramamine if you are sure
that you are not pregnant. Dramamine is not safe to take during pregnancy. This
non-prescription medication is available at drug stores, and can be used as
directed. If these measures don't control your nausea, you should contact your
health care provider. You should also call if you are taking daily medication
for any chronic medical condition and nausea prevents you from doing this.

Another common symptom of stomach flu is diarrhea. If you develop diarrhea,
don't eat or drink anything for four hours. Then start with sips of water and
work up gradually, over several hours, to small amounts of Seven-Up, ginger
ale, Jell-O, or bouillon. Again, you can also try saltines or dry toast. But
don't eat other solid foods for 24 to 48 hours. These foods will just stimulate
the diarrhea. Sometimes dairy products may also stimulate diarrhea after the
initial flu, and therefore, it may be wise to stay away from dairy products for
a few weeks.

After the first 24 to 48 hours, gradually resume eating solid foods. Meanwhile,
you can use the non-prescription medication Donagel or Kaopectate, as directed
on the label, to help control diarrhea.

With diarrhea, you should call if you don't improve after three days -- or if
the diarrhea gets worse. Also call if your diarrhea is bloody, if you have
severe abdominal cramps associated with nausea, vomiting and fever, or if you
are ill after having recently returned from a trip to another country.

Please remember these key points: 
Stomach flu can have different symptoms, but the common ones are nausea,
vomiting, and diarrhea. 
Only your body can cure this condition, but you can help it do the job by
getting plenty of rest. 
For nausea and vomiting, stop eating for two to four hours, then gradually
introduce small amounts of water and other fluids. Avoid most solid foods for
24 hours. 
For diarrhea, don't eat or drink for four hours; then gradually increase your
intake of fluids. Avoid most solid foods for 24 to 48 hours. 
If your symptoms are severe, unusual, or persistent, call your health care
provider for further advice.

This is quite common, in fact -- people think they have the flu when
they have some other kind of respiratory infection, like a bad cold.

Also, if you have some sort of digestive upset, that's not the flu.
There's no such thing as "stomach flu."

Stomach Flu This information is about stomach flu. You'll learn what it is,
what its symptoms are, and how to deal with it.

There is no such thing as "stomach flu" in medical parlance...layman's
terms, yes, but not in the medical lexicon. Just because you use the
term doesn't make it the right term.

As you can see it wasn't me that used the term. Many people use the term.

Feel free to see who used it on the websites.

DISCUSSION:

Alternative approaches to health care are clearly of interest to many
readers, but there is currently no group in which general non-technical
discussions would be appropriate. Discussions do occur in "sci.med",
but are generally counter to that newsgroup's purpose, as readers there
have noted. "sci.skeptic" is an appropriate newsgroup for scientific
investigation of alternative therapies, but not for general discussion.

So much for Mark MD.

Renames "stomach flu" to "viral gastroenteritis" IN THE TITLE.

Center at Dallas, says there's no such thing as 'the stomach flu.'"

gastroenteritis."

Contains some dangerously bad advice such as:

"For diarrhea, don't eat or drink for four hours; then gradually increase
your intake of fluids."

(Diarrhea sufferers need to replace fluids and electrolytes as rapidly as
they are able, to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.)

The article also says that, "Some people develop a sore throat, cough, and
nasal congestion similar to a common cold. This may be what's called 'upper
respiratory flu.'"

True influenza, an upper respiratory disease, is not really "similar to a
common cold." It is MUCH more severe, more debilitating, and lasts longer.
In addition to the symptoms listed above, flu causes a high fever, malaise,
and myalgia.

Where did you get this worthless source, Jan?

I had the flu symptoms shivering hot then freezing cold, aching eyeballs
sore joints phlegm on lungs sleepiness and tired.
I had the flu basically, hit it with 30g of vitamin 3 and took 3 days to get
over it.
Whether or not the vitamin c worked is anyone's guess.

What's to say the flu isn't going to mutate and come back and hit me next
cycle?
Seems like a vicious circle to me.
