Apparently I had the stomach flu and ran my body out of fluids, I ended up in the bathroom in the fetal position asking my wife to call 911 because I was convulsing.... even as an Eagle Scout it was hard to stay composed and honestly I don't remember much about it, but 2 days later I'm feeling better.

 

I tried to keep fluids in, but you know how that goes, easy in.... easy out and then i had none left, plus I'm a small guy at like 150 soaking wet at 6' tall. 3 bags of fluid and I still couldn't piss. they think my body just about shut down.

 

edit: forgot to mention it was during the blizzard.

thats kinda really gross, but i know how you feel. I got food poisoning a few weeks ago. pretty much emptied all the fluids outta my body and i couldnt keep anything down for 2 days.

Hoping to feel squared away by tomorrow evening for work. The weather went from 60 a few days ago, to 20 the next day, so the cold I had magically returned.
