Most odd. By about 5pm today, I was feeling a lot better. All the aches and pains have gone, and my appetite has returned. Had some nice sweet and sour chicken with egg fried rice, and a couple of glasses of wine.[1]
Looks like I’ll be fine for work tomorrow, which is not a Bad Thing

Scientists say that there is no such thing as the 24 hour flu, but ive had all the symptoms of a flu, and its only lasted 24hrs, nearly precisely…explain that one to me then ? huh ?? !!!!!
Ooh, that’s an easy one. The scientists in question were lying weasels.
Either that, or these nasty things that knock you flat for 24 hours[1] aren’t flu, but some other kind of virus thingy. Something like that, anyway.
It’s called food poisoning
No such thing as 24 hr flu

The symptoms of food poisoning are nothing like what I was referring to…
Perhaps this is one of those linguistic differences between the UK and the US, but I’ve never known anyone refer to food poisoning as “24 hour flu”. The former tends to be rather messy, the latter is more likely to involve general weakness and inability to actually move all that much.
my daughter had a headache, watery eyes and sore throat. but yet the next day it was like nothing happened and she was feeling fine
this flu my brother has is that he is throwing up and he is sick now while im typing he is sleeping he got it today so while i was on a diffrent website he was laying down :crying i was trying to find out what he has which is 24 hour fluand that is why it is good to have the internet and look up what u or your family has
um as a matter a fact there is a 24 hour flu because yesterday around 3pm i was vomiting and sick as a dog and felt weeker than ever but today around three pm i felt just as good as new…explain that one to me!!!

Sore throat and a 100.8 fever
Just hope she doesn’t give me anything It’s Friday !!!!
yesterday at 6pm I suddenly came dowm with severe body aches, chills ,upset stomach and a killer headache. today 24 hrs later, I still have some symptoms but not as severe. I think there is a 24 hr bug going around in cali.
uh yeah! this is a 24 hour flu cause i just got over it, so i don’t know where some people think that there’s not, then what would you call body aches, sweats fever, chills, headache like you have been hit over the head with a bat………is it the? “24 hour it’s all in your head virus”
hahaha funny i found this thread…literally this tim yesterday i was flat out on the sofa nearly unable to move with a head that felt it was about to split, legs that ached so bad, a horrible cough, a raging temp and felt generally pretty weak…yet now i feel as if i could run the marathon…(i couldnt at all but you get what i mean) tis strange…except now i have like 15 ulcers on my tongue
