Got one too. Feel fine, but hubby isn't well. Appy - willl get back to you about Tipper's needs. Have not had an extra moment this week and I failed to return your PM. Feel like a real POS in that regard.

It's the usual holiday time barfs. My kids used to get it between Thanksgiving and Christmas every year. It's making the rounds..my grandkids had it and lots of my friends kids have had it.

Hope not...

I was sick for a couple days about a week ago. I got my flu shot this year, so I don't think it was the flu...more of a chest cold.

Once again, the forum requires pictures to properly diagnose you.

I'm calling in sick tomorrow. I think I have the 24 hour bird flu.

Not me! (Yet) But I'm taking my mother to the General Practitioner this morning, so we'll probably be exposed to the germs.

No need to get violent & bite me! :lmao:

Lactobacillus Acidophilus is the predominant friendly bacteria in the upper intestinal tract. Lactobacillus is the general (genus) name of the bacteria, Acidophilus is the particular strain. It helps reduce the levels of harmful bacteria and yeasts in the small intestine and also produces lactase, an enzyme which is important in the digestion of milk. L. Acidophilus is also involved in the production of B vitamins (niacin, folic acid, and pyridoxine) during the digestive process.

Not only can Acidophilus and other probiotics tune up your intestinal function, counteract antibiotic damage, and stimulate the immune system to function better when you�re relatively well, but when you�re ill, they can also contribute significantly to relief of health problems ranging from indigestion and diarrhea to colon and liver cancer.
