My brother had it last month, he was very very ill with it, from both ends My mum had to have time off work to look after him he was that ill, and he's 20 Drink plenty of fluids and make sure you're near a toilet 24/7.

There's a bug going round here at the mo which affects your ears and balance, luckily no puking involved
