Stomach Flu

I knew I should have gotten the flu shot, because right now, I have the flu. Yesterday, I came home, from subbing, in a lot of pain. I couldn't believe how bad it was. I thought that it was maybe something I ate, but when I woke up this morning with the same thing, I called the doctor. I thought that the doctor or nurse would tell me to go to the emercency room, but a nurse ended up calling me back saying, "it sounds like you have a little intestinal bug." She wanted me to drink a lot of gatorade and to eat bland foods like, crackers, bread, toast, etc. My dad stopped over and brought me the necessities to get better. Max came home from work to take care of me, but I just ended up sleeping. Right now, I actually do feel good. I just hope that pain doesn't come back. I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday for a regular check-up, so I think that I will ask them for the flu shot when I go.
