Default Stomach Flu

Anyone know if the stomach flu is going around? I'm not sure if I've gotten food poisoning or stomach virus. But I've been miserable since Monday!

I don't think I have it (I do have "something" intestinal) but I've heard it's going around!

Two fingers of scotch on ice will make it all feel good again.

My son (in Tampa) had abdominal pain and night sweats. After a week of testing in the hospital he was diagnosed with CMV, a virus that is common in children without symptoms but can be quite painful in adults It is passed in the same manner as mono.

But it needs to be the right type: Johnny Walker Black is a great start. Yes? [emoji41]
