    I was going to say, I think it's the bug going round. Currently at my mate's house, and his little sister has it, he's starting to recover from it and his mum has had it...I've already had it so all I got was feeling dizzy and wanting to pass out, feeling tired and being majorly hot - temperature wise I mean. I'd recommend taking the Imodium and the paracetemol seperately, so one one hour, and the other the next, to give the body time to absorb it and not puke up.

    I do it all because I'm scared.
