That numbness would worry me... that sounds like a strange symptom for the flu. If it doesn't get any better, or the numbness gets worse, please go see a doctor!!

I was just writing in Lut's thread that when I worked in the medical field the nurses swore by juice from canned peaches to calm the stomach. That and ice chips. It has worked for me. My mom even got me a case of peaches for my birthday this past year, just so I'd have some in stock (what are mom's for, right?? They worry more about us than we do about ourselves). I used to try to take some med to calm the stomach, but the nurses said that was "adding insult to injury" and to stick to ice chips and peach juice. Who knows why, but it did help.

Hope you are feeling better, and can go in to work and catch back up and win that bonus! What are you selling?? Can I help out and buy something cat pee proof?!
