Caught a stomach bug a few days ago. Not fun at all. Watery stuff coming out of everywhere. Fortunately it doesn't last long and I'm already on the mend.
First time I've had a true stomach flu though, so it's been an interesting learning experience. Had almost a textbook progression of the disease, which has made it almost comically easy to remember the timeline of a stomach virus infection - I just have to remember when my symptoms started up and when they left, which isn't that hard when many of those symptoms are physically horrifying. Not that I'm advocating med students all go out and get every infectious disease they can, but it's a good reminder that nothing teaches like first-hand experience!
