Antibiotics aren't for viruses. Cold air doesn't make you sick. Tongues don't have "taste zones." Muscles don't have memory.
And because you threw up for one day, you didn't have "the 24hr flu." You ate something bad or someone didn't wash their hands. The flu is short for influenza, which is a respiratory virus, which typically does not make you throw up and shit. More likely it was the dodgy gas station sushi.
Let's keep going...
Wait the flu doesn't typically cause nausea?!
...that was food poisoning I got as a kid, wasn't it.
If flu can't case nausea someone needs to tell our health service https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/flu/
I don't see nausea mentioned anywhere on that page you linked.
"feeling sick and being sick" That's the more usual term for it in England.
•feeling sick and being sick
This cat is sick, that doesn't mean it has the flu
The NHS adjudges that cat as having flew.
This is UK English. It can just mean feeling unwell here, though it can also refer to throwing up. It's quite a vague term.
You think the NHS website is going to list a symptom of some illness as feeling unwell?
I'm from the UK too. I'm fairly certain that they mean nausea and throwing up.
