Picked up a nasty stomach bug for the second time in a few months. Wondering if it's something in the soil or somesuch since I harvest a lot of fresh vegetables. Either way, went like thirty six hours without eating and just ate a strawberry and a few miracle fruit (called thusly because they coat your tongue in an enzyme that makes sour things taste sweet) and am already regretting it. Either way, eurgh.

Getting a stomach bug once can hurt your stomach permanently to some degree, making you more susceptible for new infections or more sensitive for certain foods.

Ough. I didn't know that, thanks. Would explain why I got sick again so quickly. :/

make sure you wash your vegetables, fruit flies eggs may be on vegetables even if they look fine, along many other bugs.

Yeah, that's always good advice. I do try and wash everything I use before cooking.

also unforunely if you contracted a fever, its very likely that its gonna keep popping up frequently unless you undergo a treatment. should prob try a blood exam that tests these fevers, i struggled a lot with a bug i caught some years ago and it popped every time i ate outside home.

Ooh, thanks. I'll keep that in mind. Idk I'm not too worried yet because it's only been the two times, but if it comes back again after this I'll definitely try and get tested.
