Finally got back to work which is a good thing. Found out that my coworkers have been sharing Norovirus for the past week. I did everything but not go to work to avoid it. Gloves, disinfectant wipes in my pocket....they thought i was nuts wiping everywhere before answering the phone, touching the reigister....my boss wouldn't let me wear the mask. I don't think they understand what violent vomiting and diarrhea could do to our insides post-op.

Precautions all for naught! sick, sick, sick...feeling a little better this morning but still can't keep anything down. I do not want to go thru this again. There wasn't much in there to begin with so this was awful. Exhausting and painful. Now i feel dry, dry, dry.

I am 5 weeks post-op. I am worried about messing up the surgical bits..... guess i will be calling the doctor later.
