Illness and swollen stomach

I've felt really ill for the past couple of days - sore throat, difficulty swallowing, coughing fits resulting in me vomiting, aching all over...
I haven't kept any solid food down since friday night yet my stomach looks really swollen. I'm naturally quite slim with a flat stomach so I'm not sure why this is. Any ideas?

Flu

:smile:

Yup, flu. Or at least a nasty cold.

The same thing's happening to me at the moment, although it's probably only noticable to me as I have a bit of a belly anyway :p:

:p:

Something to do with retaining water I think.

OP

Ah ok. I was hoping to be well in the next couple of days but it seems like it might take a bit longer than that. Thanks for the replies.
